Strong's Lexicon sullaleó: To converse, to speak together, to talk with Original Word: συλλαλέω Word Origin: From the Greek prefix "σύν" (syn), meaning "together," and "λαλέω" (laleó), meaning "to speak" or "to talk." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συλλαλέω, the concept of speaking together can be found in Hebrew verbs like "דָּבַר" (dabar), which means "to speak" or "to talk." Usage: The verb συλλαλέω is used to describe the act of conversing or speaking together with someone. It implies a mutual exchange of words, often in a context of discussion or dialogue. This term is used in the New Testament to denote a shared communication, highlighting the relational aspect of conversation. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, conversation was a key aspect of social interaction. Public discourse, philosophical dialogues, and personal discussions were integral to daily life. The act of speaking together was not only a means of communication but also a way to build relationships, share ideas, and engage in communal decision-making. In the Jewish context, dialogue was also central to teaching and learning, especially in rabbinic traditions where discussion and debate were encouraged as methods of exploring the Scriptures.
