It conveys an attitude of appreciation and acknowledgment of goodness or favor received. In the New Testament, it is often associated with a heart posture of gratitude towards God for His grace and blessings.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, gratitude was considered a virtue and an essential aspect of social and religious life. The concept of "charis" (grace) was central to relationships, where favors and gifts were exchanged, and gratitude was expected in return. In the Jewish tradition, thanksgiving was a significant part of worship, with numerous Psalms dedicated to expressing gratitude to God. The early Christian community adopted and deepened this practice, emphasizing thanksgiving as a response to God's grace through Jesus Christ.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 2170</b> <i>eu<smallcaps>x</smallcaps>áristos</i> (from <a href="/greek/2095.htm">2095</a> <i>/eú</i>, "well" and 5483<i>/<smallcaps>x</smallcaps>arízomai</i>, "grant freely") – properly, <i>thankful</i> for God's<i> grace</i> working out what is (eternally) <i>good</i>; <i>grateful</i>, which literally means "<i>grace</i>-ful (<i>thankful</i>) for God's <i>grace</i>" (what brings His eternal <i>favor</i>). 2170<i>/eu<smallcaps>x</smallcaps>áristos</i> only occurs in Col 3:15. <a href="/greek/2168.htm">See 2168</a> (<i>eu<smallcaps>x</smallcaps>aristeō</i>).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/2095.htm">eu</a> and <a href="/greek/5483.htm">charizomai</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>thankful<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>thankful (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 2170: εὐχάριστος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">εὐχάριστος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἐυχαριστον</span> (<span class="greek2">εὖ</span> and <span class="greek2">χαρίζομαι</span>), <span class="accented">mindful of favors, grateful, thankful</span>: to God, <a href="/interlinear/colossians/3-15.htm">Colossians 3:15</a> (<span class="abbreviation">Xenophon</span>, Cyril 8, 3, 49; <span class="abbreviation">Plutarch</span>; others); <span class="accented">pleasing, agreeable</span> (cf.
