νομοι "nomoi"

νομοι
"nomoi"

1.)        νομοι              nu; omikron; mu; omikron; iota                                 "nomoi"

            Appears (2) times in the LXX.                       Ester 3:8, Jeremiah 31:36

           
            In Ester 3:8 "nomoi" is used twice. It is used to translate Strong's # H1881; the Hebrew
            term "dath" (דּת). In this passage "dath" is used to designate both the "laws" of the
            "certain people" of whom Haman is telling the King about. It is also used to designate
            the "laws" of the King of Persia.       

            In Jeremiah 31:36 it is used to translate the Hebrew term "choq" (חק) H2706 meaning:

                                    From H2710; an enactment; hence an appointment (of time, space,
                                    quantity, labor or usage): - appointed, bound, commandment,
                                    convenient, custom, decree (-d), due, law, measure, X necessary,
                                    ordinance (-nary), portion, set time, statute, task.

This variant does NOT APPEAR in the Greek New Testament.

Because of Ester and Jeremiah we CANNOT say this term

always means "Torah;" the Commandments given by Moses.
