Strong’s Greek Lexicon

apparently a primary word; “shade” or a shadow (literally or figuratively [darkness of error or an adumbration]):—shadow.

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) shadow
1a) shade caused by the interception of light
1b) an image cast by an object and representing the form of that object
1c) a sketch, outline, adumbration
