tom-o'-ter-os

sharper

Looking for Hebrew H5114 Nôwdâb? It has the same number in Strong's Hebrew lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of G5114. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.

tomṓteros appears once in Scripture, in Hebrews 4:12. In the Doxa app, open that verse, keep your notes on it, and ask Doxa Engage how it connects to what God has said to you.
