In the other Testament 2 words
πέρας péras · G4009 · end, limit, conclusion
Greek πέρας renders Hebrew קֵץ in contexts denoting spatial or temporal extremity/boundary, both terms sharing the core semantic field of 'end/limit/border' with overlapping lexical range across endpoint and boundary senses.
συντέλεια syntéleia · G4930 · end
Greek συντέλεια (syntéleia, G4930) specifically denotes 'entire completion' or 'consummation' of a dispensation/age, functioning as a technical eschatological term in NT usage, whereas Hebrew קֵץ (qêts, H7093) more broadly encompasses physical boundaries, temporal endpoints, and limits without the same dispensational-completion specificity—συντέλεια represents the conceptual culmination where קֵץ marks the terminus.
