In the New Testament, it is used to identify individuals who are from this area, including Jesus and His disciples. The term can carry both geographical and cultural connotations, often highlighting the distinctiveness of Galileans in contrast to those from Judea or other regions.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Galilee was a significant region during the time of Jesus, known for its diverse population and fertile land. It was less influenced by the religious elite of Jerusalem, which sometimes led to Galileans being viewed as less sophisticated or orthodox in their religious practices. Despite this, Galilee was a center for Jesus' ministry, and many of His teachings and miracles occurred there. The region's mixed population included Jews and Gentiles, which is reflected in the openness of Jesus' ministry to all people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1056.htm">Galilaia</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Galilean<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Galilean (4), Galileans (5), Galilee (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 1057: Γαλιλαῖος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Γαλιλαῖος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Γαλιλαία</span>, <span class="greek2">Γαλιλαιον</span>, <span class="accented">Gallilaean,</span> a native of Galilee: <a href="/interlinear/matthew/26-69.htm">Matthew 26:69</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/14-70.htm">Mark 14:70</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/13-1.htm">Luke 13:1</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/22-59.htm">Luke 22:59</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/23-6.htm">Luke 23:6</a>; <a href="/interlinear/john/4-45.htm">John 4:45</a>; <a href="/interlinear/acts/1-11.htm">Acts 1:11</a>; <a href="/interlinear/acts/2-7.htm">Acts 2:7</a>; <a href="/interlinear/acts/5-37.htm">Acts 5:37</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>Galilean, of Galilee. <p>From <a href="/greek/1056.htm">Galilaia</a>; Galilean or belonging to Galilea -- Galilean, of Galilee. <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/1056.htm">Galilaia</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>Γαλιλαιοι Γαλιλαῖοι Γαλιλαιος Γαλιλαῖος Γαλιλαῖός Γαλιλαιου Γαλιλαίου Γαλιλαιους Γαλιλαίους Γαλιλαιων Γαλιλαίων Galilaioi Galilaîoi Galilaion Galilaiōn Galilaíon Galilaíōn Galilaios Galilaîos Galilaîós Galilaiou Galilaíou Galilaious Galilaíous<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/matthew/26-69.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Matthew 26:69</a> <a href="/abbrev.htm" title="Noun -
