Strong's Lexicon tikon: Order, Arrangement, Regulation Original Word: תִּכּוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the root תָּכַן (takan), meaning "to measure" or "to regulate." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent concept can be found in terms like τάξις (taxis), meaning "order" or "arrangement," and κοσμέω (kosmeo), meaning "to arrange" or "to adorn," which are used in the New Testament to describe order and arrangement, both in the physical and moral sense. Usage: The term "tikón" refers to the concept of order or arrangement, often in the context of divine or moral order. It implies a sense of structure and regulation, suggesting that things are set in a purposeful and organized manner. In the biblical context, it can refer to the order established by God in creation, society, or moral law. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of order was deeply intertwined with the understanding of God's nature and His creation. The Israelites viewed the world as a reflection of divine order, where everything had its place and purpose. This understanding was crucial for maintaining societal harmony and religious observance. The idea of "tikón" would have been significant in the context of the Law, temple worship, and community life, emphasizing the importance of living according to God's established order.
