Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From καρπός (karpos, meaning "fruit") and φορέω (phoreō, meaning "to bear" or "to carry").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • H6529 פְּרִי (peri) • fruit Usage: The verb καρποφορέω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of bearing fruit, both in a literal sense, as in plants producing fruit, and in a metaphorical sense, referring to the production of spiritual fruit or good works in the life of a believer. Context: The term καρποφορέω appears in several New Testament passages, emphasizing the importance of fruitfulness in the Christian life. It is often used metaphorically to describe the spiritual growth and productivity expected of believers. In the parable of the sower, Jesus uses the concept of bearing fruit to illustrate the varying responses to the Word of God (Mark 4:20, BSB: "But those sown on good soil hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold"). This highlights the transformative power of the Gospel when it takes root in receptive hearts.
