Teknon is the standard Greek word for child — emphasizing the relationship to a parent. The New Testament uses it both literally and metaphorically.
John’s great word in 1:12 is “children (tekna) of God.” Paul addresses believers as “my beloved tekna.” Christian identity is family identity — children of a Father who runs to meet returning prodigals.
