Strong's Concordance Hierosoluma: Jerusalem, the capital of united Isr. and Judah Original Word: Ἱεροσόλυμα, ατος, τά, ἡPart of Speech: Noun, Feminine; Noun, Neuter Transliteration: Hierosoluma Phonetic Spelling: (hee-er-os-ol'-oo-mah) Short Definition: Jerusalem Definition: the Greek form of the Hebrew name: Jerusalem. HELPS Word-studies Cognate: 2414 Hierosólyma (a neuter noun, occurring about 60 times) – properly, "dwelling of peace," referring to the city of Jerusalem (see also OT 3389/Yerúshálayim). See 2419 (Hierousalm, the feminine noun-form). [OT Hebrew uses only one gender (term) for "Jerusalem" (OT 3389/Yerúshalayim).] Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 2414: ἹεροσόλυμαἹεροσόλυμα (WH Ιεροσόλυμα, see their Introductory § 408), Ἱεροσολύμων, τά (the invariable form in Mark and John, almost everywhere in Matt. and Josephus (c. Apion 1, 22, 13, etc.; Philo, leg. ad Gaium § 36; (cf. Polybius 16, 39, 4); others)), and Ἱερουσαλήμ (WH Ἰερουσαλήμ (see reference as above)), ἡ, indeclinable (the invariable form in the Sept. (Joshua 10:1, etc.; Philo de somn. 2:39 at the beginning; so Aristotle, in Josephus, contra Apion 1, 22, 7 (where see Müller)); in the N. T. where a certain sacred emphasis, so to speak, resides in the very name, as Galatians 4:25f (see Lightfoot at the passage); Hebrews 12:22; Revelation 3:12; Revelation 21:2, 10; thus in direct address: Matthew 23:37; Luke 13:34; both forms are used promiscuously (yet with a marked preference for the indeclinable form) in the O. T. Apocrypha, and in the writings of Luke and of Paul; (cf. Tdf. Proleg., p. 119; WH's Appendix, p. 160). Whether there is also a third and unusual form Ἱεροσόλυμα, ἱεροσολυμης, ἡ, in Matthew 2:3; Matthew 3:5, is extremely doubtful; for in the phrase ἐξεπορεύετο ... Ἱεροσόλυμα, Matthew 3:5, the noun can be taken as a neuter plural with a singular verb, cf. Winer's Grammar, § 58, 3 a.; and in the former passage, Matthew 2:3, the unusual coupling of the feminine 1. to denote, either the city itself, Matthew 2:1; Mark 3:8; John 1:19, etc.; or its inhabitants, Matthew 2:3; Matthew 3:5; Matthew 23:37; Luke 13:34. 2. ἡ Strong's Exhaustive Concordance Jerusalem.
