Strong's Lexicon euporeó: To prosper, to have abundance, to be well-supplied. Original Word: εὐπορέω Word Origin: From the Greek prefix εὖ (eu, meaning "well" or "good") and πορεύω (poreuō, meaning "to go" or "to travel"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for εὐπορέω, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words like שָׁלֵם (shalem, Strong's H8003), meaning "complete" or "at peace," and צָלַח (tsalach, Strong's H6743), meaning "to prosper" or "to succeed." Usage: The verb εὐπορέω (euporeó) conveys the idea of having an abundance or being in a state of prosperity. It implies not just financial wealth but a general state of well-being and sufficiency. In the New Testament, it is used to describe situations where resources are plentiful or where individuals are well-provided for. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, prosperity was often seen as a sign of divine favor. The concept of εὐπορέω would have resonated with early Christians who lived in a society where wealth and resources were unevenly distributed. The idea of being well-supplied would have been particularly meaningful in a context where many believers faced economic hardships and persecution.
