In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to those who speak in tongues or languages that are not understood by the general audience.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient world, language was a significant marker of cultural and ethnic identity. The ability to speak in different tongues was seen as a divine gift, especially in the context of early Christianity, where the gift of tongues was a sign of the Holy Spirit's presence and power. The early church, as described in the New Testament, was a diverse body comprising individuals from various linguistic and cultural backgrounds, which made the gift of tongues particularly relevant.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/2087.htm">heteros</a> and <a href="/greek/1100.htm">glóssa</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>of another tongue<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>men of strange tongues (1), strange tongues (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 2084: ἑτερόγλωσσος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἑτερόγλωσσος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἑτερογλωσσου</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span> (<span class="greek2">ἕτερος</span> and <span class="greek2">γλῶσσα</span>), <span class="accented">one who speaks</span> (another i. e.) <span class="accented">a foreign tongue</span> (opposed to <span class="greek2">ὁμόγλωσσος</span>): <a href="/interlinear/psalms/113-1.htm">Psalm 113:1</a><FOOTNOTE:10> (<BIBLE/CHAPTER_VERSE:Ps. 114:1>) <span class="manuref">Aq.</span>;
