However, the concept of hospitality and teaching can be linked to various Hebrew terms related to those practices.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Priscilla is a prominent female figure in the New Testament, often mentioned alongside her husband, Aquila. She is recognized for her role in the early Christian church as a teacher and supporter of Paul the Apostle. Her name appears in the context of hospitality, teaching, and missionary work.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Priscilla lived during the first century A.D. and was a Jewish Christian. She and her husband, Aquila, were tentmakers by trade, a profession they shared with Paul. They were expelled from Rome by the edict of Emperor Claudius and settled in Corinth, where they met Paul. Priscilla and Aquila were instrumental in the early church, hosting a house church and instructing Apollos, an eloquent preacher, in the way of God more accurately (Acts 18:26).<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>dim. of <a href="/greek/4251.htm">Priska</a> (indicating endearment)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Priscilla, the same person as Prisca. <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 4252: Πρίσκιλλα</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Πρίσκιλλα</span></span>, see the preceding word. <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>Priscilla. <p>Diminutive of <a href="/greek/4251.htm">Priska</a>;
