In the New Testament, it is used to describe the financial obligations imposed by the Roman government on its subjects. The word conveys the idea of a compulsory payment made to those in power, often as a sign of submission or allegiance.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the first-century Roman Empire, taxes were a significant aspect of daily life. The Roman government imposed various forms of taxes, including land taxes, poll taxes, and customs duties. These taxes were often collected by publicans, who were known for their corrupt practices. The payment of taxes was a contentious issue among the Jewish people, who resented Roman occupation and the financial burden it imposed. However, taxes were also seen as a necessary part of maintaining the infrastructure and services provided by the empire.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Latin origin, only in combination with <a href="/greek/675.htm">Appiou</a>, q.v.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>market (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 5410: Φόρον</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Φόρον</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Φόρου</span>, <span class="greek2">τό</span>, Latin<span class="latin">forum</span>; see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">Ἀππιος</span></span>. <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>forum, market<p>Of Latin origin; a forum or market-place; only in comparative with <a href="/greek/675.htm">Appios</a>; a station on the Appian road -- forum. <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/675.htm">Appios</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>Φορου Φόρου Phorou Phórou<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/acts/28-15.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Acts 28:15</a> <a href="/abbrev.htm" title="Noun - Genitive Neuter Singular">N-GNS</a></b><br><a href="/interlinear/acts/28.htm" title="Greek">GRK:</a> <span class="greek3">ἄχρι Ἀππίου <b>Φόρου</b> καὶ Τριῶν</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/acts/28.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> as far <span class="itali">as the Market</span> of Appius<br><a href="/kjvs/acts/28.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> as far as Appii <span class="itali">forum,</span> and The three<br><a href="/interlinear/acts/28-15.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> as far as Appius <span class="itali">market</span> and Three<p><b><a href="/greek/5410.htm">Strong's Greek 5410</a><br><a href="/greek/strongs_5410.htm">1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/greek/phorou_5410.htm">Φόρου — 1 Occ.</a><br><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/greek/5409.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="5409"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="5409" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/greek/5411.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="5411"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="5411" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
