It is used to describe the condition of experiencing severe hardship or misery, often as a result of external circumstances or internal struggles. In the New Testament, it conveys the idea of enduring trials and tribulations, highlighting the human experience of suffering in a fallen world.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, suffering and hardship were common experiences due to political instability, economic challenges, and social injustices. The early Christians, often facing persecution and societal rejection, would have been familiar with the concept of "talaiporía." This term would resonate with their experiences of enduring trials for their faith, as well as the broader human condition of suffering.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 5004</b> <i>talaipōría</i> – literally, a <i>calloused</i> (miserable) condition; <i>wretchedness</i> resulting from ongoing, intense affliction. <a href="/greek/5005.htm">See 5005</a> (<i>talaipōros</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/5005.htm">talaipóros</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>hard work, hardship, distress<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>miseries (1), misery (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 5004: ταλαιπωρία</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ταλαιπωρία</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ταλαιπωρίας</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">ταλαίπωρος</span>, which see), <span class="accented">hardship, trouble,</span> <span class="accented">calamity, misery</span>: <a href="/interlinear/romans/3-16.htm">Romans 3:16</a> (from <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/59-7.htm">Isaiah 59:7</a>); plural (<span class="accented">miseries</span>), <a href="/interlinear/james/5-1.htm">James 5:1</a>.
