Examples include:<p> - <b>Isaiah 43:4 (BSB):</b> "Because you are precious and honored in My sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you and nations in place of your life."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Greek adjective "entimos" conveys the idea of something or someone being held in high regard, esteemed, or considered precious. It is used to describe individuals or things that are valued and respected, often due to their inherent worth or the honor bestowed upon them.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, honor and social status were of paramount importance. Being considered "entimos" would imply a person or object held a significant place in society or was of great value. This concept of honor was deeply embedded in the social fabric, influencing relationships, social standing, and even legal matters. In the Jewish context, honor was also a key cultural value, often associated with one's standing before God and community.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>1784</b> <i>éntimos</i> (an adjective, derived from <a href="/greek/1722.htm">1722</a> <i>/en</i> "in," intensifying <a href="/greek/5092.htm">5092</a> <i>/timḗ</i>, "<i>attributed</i> honor") – properly, hold <i>in</i> honor, in a <i>state</i> (condition) of <i>personal respect</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/1722.htm">en</a> and <a href="/greek/5092.htm">timé</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>valued, precious<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>high regard (1), highly regarded (1), more distinguished (1), precious (2).<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 1784: ἔντιμος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἔντιμος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἔντιμον</span> (<span class="greek2">τιμή</span>), held <span class="accented">in honor, prized</span>; hence, <span class="accented">precious</span>: <span class="greek2">λίθος</span>, <a href="/interlinear/1_peter/2-4.htm">1 Peter 2:4, 6</a> (<a href="/interlinear/isaiah/28-16.htm">Isaiah 28:16</a>); <span class="accented">honorable, noble,</span> <a href="/interlinear/luke/14-8.htm">Luke 14:8</a>; <span class="greek2">τίνι</span>, <span class="accented">dear to one,</span> <a href="/interlinear/luke/7-2.htm">Luke 7:2</a>; <span class="greek2">ἔντιμον</span> <span class="greek2">ἔχειν</span> <span class="greek2">τινα</span> <span class="accented">to hold one dear or in honor, to value highly,</span> <a href="/interlinear/philippians/2-29.htm">Philippians 2:29</a>.
