However, the role of a scribe can be related to the Hebrew word סוֹפֵר (sopher), Strong's Hebrew #5608, which refers to a scribe or writer.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Tertius is a proper noun used in the New Testament to refer to a Christian scribe who assisted the Apostle Paul. His name appears in the context of the epistle to the Romans, where he identifies himself as the one who wrote down the letter at Paul's dictation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, it was common for individuals to have Latin names, especially in Roman colonies or among Roman citizens. The name "Tertius" suggests that he might have been the third child in his family, as it was customary to name children in numerical order. Scribes played a crucial role in the ancient world, as they were responsible for writing and copying documents, which was a highly valued skill in a largely illiterate society.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Latin origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"third," Tertius, a Christian to whom Paul dictated Romans<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Tertius (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 5060: Τέρτιος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Τέρτιος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Τερτιου</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span>, <span class="accented">Tertius,</span> an amanuensis of the apostle Paul: <a href="/interlinear/romans/16-22.htm">Romans 16:22</a>.
