About this word
About this word
μυρσίνη (myrsínē), “myrtle,” is a word from the Greek Septuagint — the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament. It does not occur in the Greek New Testament, so it carries no Strong’s number from Thayer’s (New-Testament) lexicon; the gloss shown here is a curated modern-English sense rather than a Strong’s definition. It appears 3 times across the Septuagint — open the Appearances tab to read it in context.
The gloss above is Lemma’s own curated sense — this word carries no Strong’s number, so no lexicon we ship has an entry for it. The transliteration and this passage list are computed here from the tagged Septuagint text. What Lemma adds →
