Strong’s Greek Lexicon

from and ; a reclining first (in the place of honor) at the dinner-bed, i.e. preeminence at meals:—chief (highest, uppermost) room.

Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.

Thayer’s Greek Definitions

1) the first reclining place, the chief place at table
2) the relative rank of the several places at table varied among the Persians, Greeks, and Romans; and what arrangements the Jews had in the time of Christ can not be accurately determined
