Near synonyms 1 word
οἷος hoîos · G3634 · like, such as, likewise
Both terms are qualitative demonstratives indicating "of what sort" or "such as this." οἷος typically introduces relative or exclamatory constructions asking or specifying what kind of thing, while τοιοῦτος more often points to a character or individual already described or implied. The two overlap substantially in qualitative-demonstrative use and can be interchangeable in many contexts.
In the other Testament 1 word
זֹאת zôʼth · H2063 · this
Hebrew זֹאת serves as a demonstrative pronoun referring to specific entities or situations ('this, such'), while Greek τοιοῦτος functions as a qualitative demonstrative emphasizing character or type ('of such kind'); both denote deixis but τοιοῦτος foregrounds qualitative categorization where זֹאת maintains referential specificity.
