It suggests a state of readiness and adequacy, where nothing is lacking for the task at hand. In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to spiritual maturity and the equipping of believers for good works.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of being "artios" would have been understood in various contexts, such as a tool being perfectly suited for its purpose or a person being fully prepared for a task. This term would resonate with the audience of the New Testament, who valued completeness and readiness in both practical and philosophical terms.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>739</b> <i>ártios</i> (from <a href="/greek/737.htm">737</a> <i>/árti</i>, "<i>now</i>," viewed in terms of the <i>present</i>, i.e. "the here-and-now") – properly, <i>ready now</i>, <i>prepared</i> to function (efficiently) in the <i>immediate present</i>.</p><p class="discovery"><a href="/greek/739.htm">739</a> <i>/ártios</i> ("<i>ready</i>-because-<i>prepared</i>") is only used in 2 Tim 3:17, "So that the man of God may be <i>adequate</i> (<a href="/greek/739.htm">739</a> <i>/ártios</i>), equipped for every good work" (<i>NASU</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/737.htm">arti</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>fitted, complete<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>adequate (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 739: ἄρτιος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἄρτιος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἀρτια</span>, <span class="greek2">ἀρτιον</span> (<span class="greek2">ἈΡΩ</span> to fit (cf. <span class="abbreviation">Curtius</span>, § 488)); <p><span class="textheading">1.</span> <span class="accented">fitted</span>. <p><span class="textheading">2.</span> <span class="accented">complete, perfect</span> (having reference apparently to 'special aptitude for given uses'); so <a href="/interlinear/2_timothy/3-17.htm">2 Timothy 3:17</a> (cf.
