Definition: "Thondol," the Hebrew noun for "son," refers to a single child, specifically a male. The term is derived from the root "thon-," which means "child." It's used in several biblical contexts, including the Old Testament when describing a son born of two different mothers: "Then said Samson unto his daughter, Behold, he that thou comest with me now, and thon-dol, his son also" (Exodus 6:20). In the New Testament, it's used for male infants. The term is often used figuratively in poetry to describe a man without a wife or children, like the concept of "thondol" in Hebrews 1:7-9 where the apostle Paul writes about the life of an individual who was not married and had no children.
