It emphasizes the role of a teacher not just in imparting knowledge, but in guiding others towards righteous living and virtuous behavior. This term is used in the context of Christian teaching, where the focus is on aligning one's life with the teachings of Christ and the moral standards set forth in Scripture.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, teachers held a significant role in society, often being responsible for the moral and intellectual development of their students. The early Christian community placed a high value on teaching that was rooted in the truth of the Gospel and the ethical teachings of Jesus. The role of a "kalodidaskalos" would have been particularly important in the early church, where new converts needed guidance in understanding and living out their faith in a predominantly pagan culture.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>2567</b> <i>kalodidáskalos</i> (from <a href="/greek/2570.htm">2570</a> <i>/kalós</i>, "<i>attractively</i> good" and <a href="/greek/1320.htm">1320</a> <i>/didáskalos</i>, "a teacher") – properly, a teacher sharing what is honorable and noble – literally, "a teacher of <i>winsome goodness</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/2570.htm">kalos</a> and <a href="/greek/1320.htm">didaskalos</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a teacher of good<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>teaching what (1), teaching what is good (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 2567: καλοδιδάσκαλος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">καλοδιδάσκαλος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">καλοδιδασκαλου</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">διδάσκαλος</span> and <span class="greek2">καλόν</span>, cf. <span class="greek2">ἱεροδιδασκαλος</span>, <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">νομοδιδάσκαλος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">χοροδιδάσκαλος</span>), <span class="accented">teaching that which is good, a teacher of goodness</span>: <a href="/interlinear/titus/2-3.htm">Titus 2:3</a>.
