It conveys the idea of likeness or comparison between two or more entities.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of similarity was often used in philosophical and rhetorical contexts to draw comparisons and analogies. The use of "παρόμοιος" would have been understood in terms of likeness in character, function, or appearance, which was a common method of teaching and explanation in ancient times.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/3844.htm">para</a> and <a href="/greek/3664.htm">homoios</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>much like<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>such (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 3946: παρόμοιος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">παρόμοιος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">παρομοιον</span> (also of three term.
