It is often used in the New Testament to emphasize the significance or completeness of an action or event that occurs three times.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In biblical times, the number three held symbolic significance, often representing completeness or divine perfection. This is evident in various biblical contexts, such as the Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), the three days of Jesus' resurrection, and the threefold repetition of certain actions or statements to emphasize their importance or certainty.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from <a href="/greek/5140.htm">treis</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>three times<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>three times (12).<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 5151: τρίς</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">τρίς</span></span> (<span class="greek2">τρεῖς</span>), adverb, <span class="accented">thrice</span>: <a href="/interlinear/matthew/26-34.htm">Matthew 26:34, 75</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/14-30.htm">Mark 14:30, 72</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/22-34.htm">Luke 22:34, 61</a>; <a href="/interlinear/john/13-38.htm">John 13:38</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_corinthians/11-25.htm">2 Corinthians 11:25</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_corinthians/12-8.htm">2 Corinthians 12:8</a>; <span class="greek2">ἐπί</span> <span class="greek2">τρίς</span> (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">ἐπί</span></span>, C.
