Strong's Lexicon katakaluptó: To cover, to veil Original Word: κατακαλύπτω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "κατά" (kata, meaning "down" or "against") and "καλύπτω" (kaluptó, meaning "to cover" or "to veil"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of covering or veiling is also present in the Hebrew Scriptures, with words like כָּסָה (kasah, Strong's Hebrew 3680), which means to cover or conceal. Usage: The verb κατακαλύπτω means to cover or to veil something, often implying a complete or thorough covering. In the New Testament, it is used in the context of covering one's head, particularly in relation to cultural practices of modesty and propriety during worship. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, head coverings were a common cultural practice, especially for women. They were often seen as a sign of modesty and respectability. In Jewish tradition, head coverings also held religious significance. The practice of covering one's head during worship was a reflection of social norms and religious customs of the time, which often emphasized the distinction between men and women in public and religious settings.
