δόμα dóma, dom'-ah; from the base of G1325; a present:—gift.
STRONGS G1390:
δόμα, -τος, τό, (δίδωμι), a gift: Matthew 7:11; Luke 11:13; Ephesians 4:8; Philippians 4:17. (Plato, def., p. 415 b.; Plutarch; often in the Sept., chiefly for מַתָּנָה.) Cf. Fritzsche on Matthew, p. 291f [who quotes Varro de ling. Latin 50 4, p. 48, Bip. edition "dos erit pecunia si nuptiarum causa data: haec Graece δωτίνη, ita enim hoc Siculi: ab eodem Donum. Nam Graece ut ipsi δῶρον, ut alii δόμα, et ut Attici δόσις."]
[Synonyms: δόμα, δόσις, δῶρον, δωρεά: δόσ. active, a giving, passive, thing given, cf. medical "dose"; δῶρ. specific "present," yet not always gratuitous or wholly unsuggestive of recompense; but δωρεά differs from δῶρ. in denoting a gift which is also a gratuity, hence of the benefactions of a sovereign; a δόσις θεοῦ is what God confers as possessor of all things; a δωρεὰ θεοῦ is an expression of his favor; a δῶρον θεοῦ is something which becomes the recipient's abiding possession. Philo de cherub. § 25, says πάνυ ἐκδήλως παριστάς (Num. 28:2), ὅτι τῶν ὄντων τὰ μὲν χάριτος μέσης ἠξίωται, ἣ καλεῖται δόσις, τὰ δὲ ἀμείνονος, ἧς ὄνομα οἰκεῖον δωρεά. Again, de leg. alleg. 3 § 70 (on the same biblical passage), διατηρήσεις ὅτι δῶρα δομάτων διαφέρουσι· τὰ μὲν γὰρ ἔμφασιν μεγέθους τελείων ἀγαθῶν δηλοῦσιν... τὰ δὲ εἰς βραχύτατον ἔσταλται κτλ. Hence δόμα, δόσις, gift; δωρεά, δῶρον, benefaction, bounty, etc.; yet cf. e. g. Test. 12 Patr. test. Zab. § 1 ἐγώ εἰμι Ζαβουλών, δόσις ἀγαθὴ τοῖς γονεὒσί μου, with Gen. 30:20 δεδώρηται ὁ θεός μοι δῶρον καλὸν... κ. ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὺτοῦ Ζαβουλών. Cf. Schmidt ch. 106.]
