However, the idea can be loosely related to Greek terms that imply anonymity or generality, such as τις (tis), meaning "someone" or "anyone."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "peloni" is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to an unspecified or unnamed person. It functions similarly to the English "so-and-so" or "a certain person," often used when the identity of the person is either unknown or deliberately left anonymous. This term is typically employed in narrative contexts where the specific identity of the individual is not crucial to the story.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, names held significant meaning and were often used to convey identity, lineage, and character. The use of "peloni" reflects a cultural practice of maintaining anonymity in certain contexts, either to protect the identity of the person or because the individual's specific identity was not essential to the narrative. This practice is seen in various ancient Near Eastern texts, where anonymity serves literary or social purposes.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6395.htm">palah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a certain one<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>certain* (1), friend* (1), particular one (1), 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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I. <font class="hebrew2">מְּלֹנִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>pronoun</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a certain one</b></font>; Greek <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">ὁ</font>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">ἡ δεῖνα</font> (according to Thes from above √, through an unused noun <font class="hebrew2">מָּלֹן</font>, properly <em>one defined, a particular one:</em> Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>; Aramaic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb081112.gif">, feminine <img src="/bdbgif/bdb081113.gif">; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb081114.gif"> W<sup>AG i.§ 353 R.c</sup>, voc. <img src="/bdbgif/bdb081115.gif"> Siegf<sup>ZW</sup> Th xxvii. 355; As <em>pulpul Hpt<sup>BAS i. 114</sup>), always joined with <font class="hebrew2">צַלְמֹנִי</font> (properly <em>one not mentioned</em>) in the sense of 'ein <em>gewisser</em> verschwiegener' (Ew<sup>§ 106 c, 2</sup> Sta<sup>§ 150 b</sup>), '<em>a certain</em> unnamed <em>one</em>', i.e. <em>such a one</em>; <a href="/interlinear/ruth/4-1.htm">Ruth 4:1</a> <font class="hebrew2">שְׁבָהמֹּֿה</font> <font class="hebrew2">מְּלֹנִי אַלְמֹנִי</font> sit down here, <em>such a one</em> (Greek <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">ὦ οὖτος</font>; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb081116.gif">); in the phrase <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">א</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">מְקוֺם פ</font> the place of <em>such a one</em> = <em>such and such</em> a place, <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/21-3.htm">1 Samuel 21:3</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_kings/6-8.htm">2 Kings 6:8</a>.
