It conveys a sense of brilliance and magnificence, often associated with light or glory. In the New Testament, it is used both literally and metaphorically to describe physical brightness or the splendor of a person or thing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, light and brightness were often associated with divinity, purity, and truth. The concept of light as a symbol of divine presence and revelation is prevalent in both Jewish and Christian traditions. The use of "λαμπρός" in the New Testament reflects this cultural understanding, emphasizing the glory and majesty of God and His works.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from <a href="/greek/2986.htm">lampros</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>splendidly<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>splendor (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 2988: λαμπρῶς</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">λαμπρῶς</span></span>, adverb, <span class="accented">splendidly, magnificently</span>: of sumptuous living, <a href="/interlinear/luke/16-19.htm">Luke 16:19</a>.
