It conveys the idea of being succinct or cutting to the point without unnecessary elaboration. In the context of biblical literature, it often refers to speech or writing that is direct and to the point.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, rhetoric and the art of persuasion were highly valued. Being able to communicate effectively and succinctly was considered a skill of great importance. The use of "suntomós" would have been appreciated in contexts where clarity and brevity were necessary, such as in legal, philosophical, or theological discussions.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from suntomos (cut short);
