Strong's Lexicon entupoó: To imprint, to impress, to form by striking Original Word: ἐντυπόω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "ἐν" (en, meaning "in" or "on") and the verb "τύπτω" (tuptō, meaning "to strike" or "to imprint"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "entupoó," the concept of forming or shaping is present in Hebrew words like יָצַר (yatsar, Strong's H3335), which means "to form" or "to fashion," often used in the context of God's creative work. Usage: The verb "entupoó" refers to the act of impressing or imprinting a form or pattern onto a surface. In a metaphorical sense, it can imply the shaping or forming of character or behavior through repeated influence or impact. This term is used to describe the process of forming something by applying pressure or influence, often resulting in a lasting impression. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, the concept of imprinting or forming was often associated with craftsmanship, such as the work of a potter or a metalworker who would shape materials into desired forms. The idea of imprinting also carried philosophical connotations, as Greek thinkers like Plato discussed the formation of ideas and virtues in the soul. In the context of the New Testament, the concept of being "imprinted" or "formed" can relate to spiritual formation and the shaping of one's character in accordance with divine principles.
