although a variety of explanations can be given using the etymology, the Greek (koine) word for "person" is "prosopon, pros-opon" and can (depending on the author giving the description) mean the area aprox. around the eyes, or towards (facing) that area. I think the first explanation is the standard, though.

Thanks Thekla. I also use the Koine greek but it seems to be difficult to post on this board.

Btw, this Greek/Hebrew interlinear gives both the Koine and Transliterated Greek and thus you can look up exact word forms by clicking on either one. It also PARSES the words so you can see what the Root Word is.

It is really a great "Tool" I recommend. Peace.
