Berean Strong's Lexicon anadeiknumi: To show forth, to declare, to appoint, to exhibit Original Word: ἀναδείκνυμι Word Origin: From ἀνά (ana, meaning "up" or "again") and δείκνυμι (deiknumi, meaning "to show" or "to point out") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "anadeiknumi," similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words like יָצָא (yatsa, meaning "to go out" or "to bring forth") and מָנָה (manah, meaning "to appoint" or "to count"). Usage: The Greek verb "anadeiknumi" primarily means to show forth or to declare something openly. It can also imply the act of appointing or designating someone to a position or task. In the New Testament, it is used in contexts where something is being revealed or someone is being appointed to a specific role. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, public declarations and appointments were significant events. The act of "anadeiknumi" would often involve a formal process where individuals were publicly recognized or appointed to positions of authority or responsibility. This concept was familiar in both civic and religious contexts, where leaders were often publicly designated for their roles.
