In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to the human condition of being susceptible to pain, trials, and tribulations.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, suffering was a common theme in philosophical and religious discussions. Stoicism, for example, taught the importance of enduring suffering with virtue. In Jewish thought, suffering was often seen as a test of faith or a means of purification. The early Christian community, facing persecution, would have been acutely aware of the reality of suffering, both as a shared human experience and as a particular challenge for believers.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 3805</b> <i>pathētós</i> (an adjective, derived from 3958<i>/pas<smallcaps>x</smallcaps>ō</i>, "to experience strong feeling, such as suffering") – properly, "passable, i.e. endued with the <i>capacity of suffering</i>, <i>capable of feeling</i>" (J.
