Strong's Lexicon ekklaó: To break off, to break out Original Word: ἐκκλάω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition ἐκ (ek, meaning "out of") and the verb κλάω (klaó, meaning "to break"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often involves verbs like גָּדַע (gada', meaning "to cut off") or פָּרַד (parad, meaning "to separate" or "to divide"). Usage: The verb ἐκκλάω is used in the context of breaking off or breaking out, often with a sense of separation or division. It conveys the action of something being broken away from a larger whole. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of breaking or separating was often associated with agricultural practices, such as pruning branches from a vine or tree. This imagery is also present in biblical texts, where the metaphor of a vine and branches is used to describe relationships and spiritual truths. The act of breaking off can symbolize judgment, separation, or the removal of something unproductive.
