Σίμων G4613
Simon — a common Greek personal name (from Hebrew Shimon), borne by Simon Peter and several other NT figures.
Simon is the Hellenized form of the Hebrew name Shimon, one of the most frequently occurring personal names in the New Testament. It is borne by at least nine distinct individuals: Simon Peter the chief apostle (Matt 4:18; 16:16), Simon the Zealot (Matt 10:4), Simon of Cyrene who carried Jesus' cross (Matt 27:32), Simon the leper of Bethany (Matt 26:6), Simon the brother of Jesus (Matt 13:55), Simon the Pharisee (Luke 7:40), Simon the tanner in Joppa (Acts 9:43; 10:6), Simon Magus the Samaritan sorcerer (Acts 8:9), and Simon Iscariot, father of Judas (John 6:71). Context and descriptors, not the name itself, distinguish them.
