Word Origin: From the preposition σύν (syn, "with, together") and the verb λογίζομαι (logizomai, "to reckon, to consider").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συλλογίζομαι, the concept of reasoning or deliberating can be seen in Hebrew words like יָעַץ (ya'ats, "to counsel, to advise") and חָשַׁב (chashav, "to think, to plan").

Usage: The verb συλλογίζομαι (sullogizomai) is used in the New Testament to describe the act of reasoning or deliberating together. It implies a thoughtful consideration or discussion, often involving weighing different aspects or arguments. This term is used to convey the process of coming to a conclusion through collective reasoning or dialogue.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, reasoning and dialogue were highly valued, especially in philosophical and rhetorical contexts. The use of συλλογίζομαι reflects this cultural emphasis on logical discourse and communal decision-making. In Jewish tradition, reasoning together was also a key aspect of interpreting the Law and understanding God's will, often seen in rabbinic discussions and debates.
