However, the concept of purity and clarity can be related to Hebrew words like זַךְ (zakh), meaning "pure" or "clear."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Greek adjective "hualinos" is used to describe something that is made of glass or has the appearance of glass. In the context of the New Testament, it conveys the idea of something that is clear, pure, and transparent, often symbolizing purity and divine perfection.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient world, glass was a valuable and somewhat rare material, often associated with luxury and beauty. The process of glassmaking was known in the Roman Empire, and glass objects were prized for their clarity and brilliance. The use of "hualinos" in the biblical text would evoke images of something precious and unblemished, reflecting the divine nature of the heavenly realm.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>5193</b> <i>hyálinos</i> (an adjective, derived from <a href="/greek/5194.htm">5194</a> <i>/hýalos</i>, "glass") – made of glass ("glassy"); "transparent as glass" (Souter).</p><p class="discovery">In Scripture, <i>transparency</i> is a greatly valued virtue, representing<i> the Lord's glory shining through</i> (<i>reflecting Himself</i>!).

By God's light, their sanctification-glorification has a spiritual transparency that reflects the image of Jesus Himself.
