It is often used to distinguish between two or more items, people, or concepts that are similar in nature or category. In the New Testament, "allós" is frequently employed to indicate another of the same kind, as opposed to "heteros," which can imply another of a different kind.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of "another" was significant in philosophical and rhetorical discussions, often used to compare and contrast ideas, people, or objects. The distinction between "allós" and "heteros" was important in understanding relationships and categories, reflecting a nuanced view of similarity and difference. In the context of the New Testament, this distinction helps clarify teachings and parables, emphasizing the continuity or similarity within a group or concept.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from <a href="/greek/243.htm">allos</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>otherwise<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>otherwise (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 247: ἄλλως</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἄλλως</span></span>, adverb (<span class="greek2">ἄλλος</span>) (from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down), <span class="accented">otherwise</span>: <a href="/interlinear/1_timothy/5-25.htm">1 Timothy 5:25</a> (<span class="greek2">τά</span> <span class="greek2">ἄλλως</span> <span class="greek2">ἔχοντα</span>, which are of a different sort, i. e., which are not <span class="greek2">καλά</span> <span class="greek2">ἔργα</span> (others which are not <span class="greek2">πρόδηλα</span>)).<FOOTNOTE:1> <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>otherwise. <p>Adverb from <a href="/greek/243.htm">allos</a>;
