Topos is straightforwardly “place” — a spot on the ground or a space among people. It is the word behind “topography.” But the New Testament also uses it figuratively: a place at the table, a place in line, a place to operate.

Its most memorable use is John 14:2: “I go to prepare a place (topos) for you.” Christian hope is not vague atmosphere but a real, prepared place in the Father’s house.
