Summary

Samareitis is rendered "in FlJ (B.J., i, 21, 2, al.), the region of Samaria.; a Samaritan woman". It stands 2 times in the Greek text, across one book.

  • Two of the uses stand in John, more than in any other book.
  • The lexicon lists two meanings for it, beginning with "in FlJ (B.J., i, 21, 2, al.), the region of Samaria.".
  • Its first use in canonical order opens the ledger below.John 4:9“You are a Jew,” said the woman. “How can You ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)
  • The Greek text spells it two different ways.

The first use

“You are a Jew,” said the woman. “How can You ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)

John 4:9Σαμαρῖτις

The first use, in the order of the New Testament's books.

Where the word stands

Two of the word's two uses are in John.

The other 26 New Testament books never use the word.

What the word means

The words built on the same word-part

Each word below begins with the same letters this one begins with. A shared word-part shows a family. It does not settle what any one of them means, so each word carries its own uses on its own page. Scholars call that shared part the stem.

How the numbers are counted

Every count on this page comes from STEP Bible's tagged Hebrew and Greek text, the same text the ledger prints. A use is counted once each time the tagging marks a word with this key.

Spellings are counted as the Greek text spells them, with the sentence's own punctuation taken off the word first, so a form that ends a clause is not counted as a second spelling.
