Near synonyms 1 word
- κτῆμα ktēma · G2933 · property, possession
- Both terms belong to the semantic field of ownership and property. The target emphasizes the state of possessing something, while κτῆμα (an acquirement, i.e. an estate) emphasizes the property that has been acquired. This is a nuance of emphasis within a genuinely shared sense of property-holding, not a difference that separates the two into unrelated meanings.
