Strong's Lexicon epagó: To bring upon, to lead upon, to introduce Original Word: ἐπάγω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition ἐπί (epi, meaning "upon" or "over") and the verb ἄγω (ago, meaning "to lead" or "to bring"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἐπάγω, the concept of bringing or leading something upon someone can be seen in Hebrew verbs like בּוֹא (bo, Strong's H935) meaning "to come" or "to bring." Usage: The verb ἐπάγω (epagó) is used in the New Testament to convey the action of bringing something upon someone or something, often with a sense of introducing or leading into a particular state or condition. It can imply the introduction of consequences, whether positive or negative, depending on the context. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of leading or bringing something upon a person or group was often associated with the actions of leaders, gods, or fate. The use of ἐπάγω in the New Testament reflects a worldview where divine or human actions can lead to significant outcomes, aligning with the biblical theme of cause and effect under God's sovereign will.
