- ὁμοίωμα homoíōma · G3667 · similarity, likeness, being similar
- ὁμοίωμα (noun) denotes the result of being made similar or the state of likeness/resemblance, conceptually parallel to σύμμορφος (adjective) which describes having a similar form. Both express conformity in appearance or nature, though ὁμοίωμα is substantival.
