Strong's Lexicon dialaleó: To converse, to speak with, to discuss Original Word: διαλαλέω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition διά (dia, meaning "through" or "between") and the verb λαλέω (laleó, meaning "to speak" or "to talk"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for διαλαλέω, the concept of dialogue and discussion can be related to Hebrew words like דָּבַר (dabar, Strong's Hebrew 1696), which means "to speak" or "to talk." Usage: The verb διαλαλέω (dialaleó) is used to describe the act of conversing or discussing between individuals. It implies a dialogue or exchange of words, often with the intention of reaching an understanding or sharing information. In the New Testament, it is used to denote communication that is more than just speaking; it involves a mutual exchange of ideas or thoughts. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, dialogue was a significant part of philosophical and educational practices. The use of διαλαλέω in the New Testament reflects the importance of communication and dialogue in the early Christian communities. It underscores the value placed on teaching, learning, and the sharing of the Gospel message through conversation and discussion.
