STRONGS NT 5110: τόκος

τόκος, τόκου, ὁ (from τίκτω, perfect τέτοκα);

1. birth;

a. the act of bringing forth.

b. that which has been brought forth, offspring; (in both senses from Homer down).

2. interest of money, usury (because it multiplies money, and as it were 'breeds' (cf. e. g. Merchant of Venice 1:3)): Matthew 25:27; Luke 19:23 (so in Greek writings from Pindar and Aristophanes down; the Sept. for נֶשֶׁך).
