This tip is inspired by the forum post: Word study loneliness - Logos Forums
How does one find the Greek word(s) for loneliness in order to do a word study?
MJ. Smith said:Simply open a BWS and enter the word loneliness ... you may need to change the translation or the word form to get answers. My results for lonely in the NRSV.
JBR said:A place to start with that (a thematic approach) is by entering loneliness or lonely into Factbook. There you'll find links to articles and key passages in the Bible. Those may (and are lonely to) introduce other related words. Taking those words and doing a Bible Word Study (BWS) like MJ showed will help identify Hebrew and Greek words that you can then study.
