It conveys the sense of "at all" or "altogether," often used to emphasize the totality or completeness of an action or state. In the New Testament, it is used to underscore the comprehensive nature of a statement or condition.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the context of ancient Greek language and culture, the concept of wholeness or entirety was significant in philosophical and rhetorical discussions. The term καθόλου would have been understood as emphasizing the totality or completeness of a concept, aligning with the Greek philosophical pursuit of understanding the whole of reality. In the New Testament, this term is used to convey the fullness of a truth or condition, often in theological or moral discussions.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from <a href="/greek/2596.htm">kata</a> and <a href="/greek/3650.htm">holos</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>in general<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>all (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 2527: καθόλου</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">καθόλου</span></span> (i. e. <span class="greek2">καθ'</span> <span class="greek2">ὅλου</span> (<span class="accented"> as it is written in authors before <span class="abbreviation">Aristotle</span></span> (Liddell and Scott))), adverb, <span class="accented">wholly, entirely, at all</span>: <a href="/interlinear/acts/4-18.htm">Acts 4:18</a>.
