John the Baptist is known for his role in preparing the way for Jesus Christ, calling people to repentance, and baptizing Jesus. John the Apostle, one of the twelve disciples, is traditionally credited with writing the Gospel of John, three epistles, and the Book of Revelation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the first-century Jewish context, names were often chosen for their meanings and connections to family heritage. The name John, meaning "Yahweh is gracious," reflects a deep theological significance, emphasizing God's grace and favor. John the Baptist's ministry marked a pivotal moment in Jewish history, as he called for repentance and heralded the coming of the Messiah. John the Apostle played a crucial role in the early Christian church, contributing significantly to the New Testament canon and the theological understanding of Jesus as the incarnate Word of God.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>variant reading for <a href="/greek/2489.htm">Ióanan</a>, q.v.<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 2490: Ἰωαννας</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Ἰωαννας</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Ἰωάννα</span>, and (according to <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span>) <span class="greek2">Ἰωανάν</span>, indeclinable (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">Ἰωάννης</span></span>), <span class="greek2">ὁ</span>, <span class="accented">Joannas</span> (or <span class="accented">Joanan</span>), one of the ancestors of Christ: <a href="/interlinear/luke/3-27.htm">Luke 3:27</a>.<FOOTNOTE:1> <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Joannas. <p>A form of <a href="/greek/2491.htm">Ioannes</a>; Joannas, an Israelite -- Joannas. <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/2491.htm">Ioannes</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>Ιωαναν Ἰωανάν Ἰωανὰν Ioanan Ioanán Iōanan Iōanán<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/luke/3-27.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Luke 3:27</a> <a href="/abbrev.htm" title="Noun">N</a></b><br><a href="/interlinear/luke/3.htm" title="Greek">GRK:</a> <span class="greek3">τοῦ <b>Ἰωανάν</b> τοῦ Ῥησά</span><br><a href="/kjvs/luke/3.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> <span class="itali">Which was [the son] of Joanna,</span> which was [the son] of Rhesa,<br><a href="/interlinear/luke/3-27.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> <span class="itali">of Joannen</span> of Rhesa<p><b><a href="/greek/2490.htm">Strong's Greek 2490</a><br><a href="/greek/strongs_2490.htm">1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/greek/io_anan_2490.htm">Ἰωανάν — 1 Occ.</a><br><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/greek/2489b.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="2489b"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="2489b" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/greek/2491.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="2491"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="2491" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
