The word “Hellenist” sounds a teeny, tiny bit like “Chiloni.” Coincidence?
As much as anything can be said to be coincidental.
According to Wiktionary, “hellenist” is
from Ancient Greek ?????????? (hellenistes) “somebody who speaks Greek”, from ?????????? (hellenizein) “to speak Greek, to make Greek, to become Greek, hellenize”, from Ancient Greek ????? (Hellen) “Greek”.
“Chiloni,” on the other hand, is a Modern Hebrew word derived
from the Hebrew “chol,” meaning “ordinary, not holy.”
