However, the role of Silvanus as a messenger and leader can be compared to figures like Nathan (Strong's Hebrew 5416), who served as a prophet and advisor.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Silouanos, or Silvanus, is a proper noun used in the New Testament to refer to a Christian missionary and companion of the Apostle Paul. He is also identified with Silas, a leader in the early Christian church. Silvanus is noted for his role in spreading the Gospel and strengthening the early Christian communities.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Silvanus, also known as Silas, was a prominent figure in the early Christian church. He was a Jewish Christian and a Roman citizen, which afforded him certain privileges and protections during his missionary journeys. Silvanus is first mentioned in the context of the Jerusalem Council (Acts 15), where he was chosen to accompany Paul and Barnabas to Antioch with the council's letter. He later joined Paul on his second missionary journey, where he played a significant role in establishing churches in Macedonia and Greece. His dual identity as a Jew and Roman citizen made him an effective bridge between different cultural groups within the early church.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a Latin form of <a href="/greek/4609.htm">Silas</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"sylvan," Silvanus, alt. form of the name Silas<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Silvanus (4).<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 4610: Σιλουανός</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Σιλουανός</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Σιλουανοῦ</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span>, <span class="accented">Silvanus,</span> the same man who in Acts is called <span class="greek2">Σιλᾶς</span> (which see): <a href="/interlinear/2_corinthians/1-19.htm">2 Corinthians 1:19</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_thessalonians/1-1.htm">1 Thessalonians 1:1</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_thessalonians/1-1.htm">2 Thessalonians 1:1</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_peter/5-12.htm">1 Peter 5:12</a>.
