STRONGS NT 1350: δίκτυον

δίκτυον, δικτύου, τό (perhaps from ΔΙΚΑΙΝ to cast, cf. Etym. Magn. col. 275, 21), a net: Matthew 4:20; Mark 1:18; Luke 5:2, 4-6; John 21:6, 8, 11. (Homer and following.) [SYNONYMS: δίκτυον, ἀμφίβληστρον, σαγήνη: δίκτυον seems to be the general name for nets of all kinds; whereas ἀμφίβληστρον and σαγήνη designate specifically nets for fishing: — the former a casting-net, generally pear-shaped; the latter a seine or drag-net. Cf. Trench, § lxiv.; B. D. under the word .]



Strong's
net.

Probably from a primary verb diko (to cast); a seine (for fishing) -- net.
