Greek house and village and city
1. Greek house and village and city
Matthew 23:38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. [kjv]
ιδου αφιεται υμιν ο οικος υμων [gnt]
The Bible times and modern Greek word
"οίκος" (EE-kos) ≈ "house" comes from the same ancient Greek word.
The more common Modern Greek word for house is

hospitality".

5. Greek digamma
In ancient times, Greek had a letter "
Ϝ" called digamma that disappeared and that had the sound of an English "
v" or "
w".
Ϝ ϝ Ϛ ς
The Greek digamma corresponds to the English "
F" and had an "
f" or "
v" or "
w". As it was not needed for sound value, it disappeared except for it's numeric value of six (
6).
6. Deuteronomy 24:1-2
Deuteronomy 24:1 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. [kjv]
εαν δε τις λαβη γυναικα και συνοικηση αυτη και εσται εαν μη ευρη χαριν εναντιον αυτου οτι ευρεν εν αυτη ασχημον πραγμα και γραψει αυτη βιβλιον αποστασιου και δωσει εις τας χειρας αυτης και εξαποστελει αυτην εκ της οικιας αυτου [lxx]
24:2 And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife. [kjv]
και απελθουσα γενηται ανδρι ετερω [lxx]
The Greek word for
"married" is that of, literally,
"(in the) same house". The "
bill" is the Greek word that will become "
book" or "
Bible".
Notice that Jesus uses a different and more general Greek word for
"separation" or
"divorce" than is used in the
LXX (Septuagint). This allows a double or extended meaning beyond the literal meaning.
It is easy to get diverted (i.e., red herring deception) on technical differences between
"put away" and
"divorce" using modern or ancient Hebrew terms. Instead, it might be better to focus on the Greek words used and the any double meanings associated with the meanings of those words.

8. Mark 6:6
Mark 6:6 And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching. [kjv]
και εθαυμασεν δια την απιστιαν αυτων και περιηγεν τας κωμας κυκλω διδασκων [gnt]
9. Mark 6:6
KJV: And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.
Greek: και εθαυμαζεν εθαυμασεν δια την απιστιαν αυτων και περιηγεν τας κωμας κυκλω διδασκων
Wessex: & he wundrede for heore un-ge-leafen. He þa laerende þanne castell be-ferde.
Wycliffe: And he wondride for the vnbileue of hem. And he wente aboute casteles on ech side, and tauyte.
Tyndale: And he merveyled at their vnbelefe. And he went aboute by ye tounes yt laye on every syde teachynge.
Gothic: jah sildaleikida in ungalaubeinais ize jah bitauh weihsa bisunjane laisjands.
Slavonic: И дивляшеся за неверствие их: и обхождаше веси окрест учя.
10. Old English wic
These words for "
house" are related (cognate) to the Old English word "
wic" as house.
The word "
wic" has disappeared in English except for the word
bailiwick as a small town and which has come to mean a small somewhat obscure area of academic knowledge. The
bailiff helped keep order and from which the word
bail comes. In the same sense, the "
sheriff" kept order over a "
shire" as the "rief" of the "
shire".
Related to the Old English "
wic", the Old Church Slavonic word
"весь" (ves) ≈ "village" and remains as an outdated Russian word for "
village".
11. Wiki
Note: The computer technology term
wiki as a place for content is not related to the Old English "
wic" and comes instead from the Hawaiian word for "
quick".
12. Warwick
A place name such as "
Warwick" comes from the root for "
man" (as in the first part of "
werewolf") and the root of "
world" and "
wick" for "
town".
For more information, see the following:
The age of werewolfs in the world
13. Sandwiches
The English word "
sandwich" is named for the Earl of Sandwich who was from a town built on the beach, from "
sand" and "
wic".
Many people build houses on the beach, though not necessarily on the sand. Instead, the foundation poles go down to something more firm.

Luke 14:21 So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. [kjv]
και παραγενομενος ο δουλος απηγγειλεν τω κυριω αυτου ταυτα τοτε οργισθεις ο οικοδεσποτης ειπεν τω δουλω αυτου εξελθε ταχεως εις τας πλατειας και ρυμας της πολεως και τους πτωχους και αναπειρους και τυφλους και χωλους εισαγαγε ωδε [gnt]

Wycliffe: And the seruaunt turnede ayen, and tolde these thingis to his lord. Thanne the hosebonde man was wrooth, and seide to his seruaunt, Go out swithe in to the grete stretis and smal stretis of the citee, and brynge ynne hidir pore men, and feble, blynde, and crokid.

Wycliffe: And whanne he hadde take the blynde mannus hoond, he ledde hym out of the street, and spete in to hise iyen, and sette hise hoondis on hym; and he axide hym, if he saye ony thing.
Tyndale: And he caught the blynde by the honde and leade him out of the toune and spat in his eyes and put his hondes apon him and axed him whether he saw ought.

Note the toune in Tyndale. The double use of the "
u" was eventually changed to a double "
u" as "
w" as in towne in the Geneva Bible.
The modern Greek word
"κώμη" (KO-mee) ≈ "village" has in interesting etymology.
