Berean Strong's Lexicon sunegeiró: To raise together, to awaken together Original Word: συνεγείρω Word Origin: From the Greek words σύν (syn, meaning "with" or "together") and ἐγείρω (egeiró, meaning "to raise" or "to awaken"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "sunegeiró," the concept of resurrection can be related to the Hebrew word קוּם (qum, Strong's H6965), which means "to rise" or "to stand up." Usage: The verb "sunegeiró" is used in the New Testament to describe the act of being raised together with Christ. It conveys the idea of a spiritual resurrection or awakening that believers experience through their union with Jesus Christ. This term emphasizes the transformative power of the believer's new life in Christ, symbolizing both a present spiritual reality and a future physical resurrection. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, resurrection was a concept that was often met with skepticism, as many philosophical traditions did not hold a belief in bodily resurrection. However, within the Jewish context, the idea of resurrection was more familiar, particularly in the context of eschatological hope. The early Christian proclamation of Jesus' resurrection and the subsequent spiritual resurrection of believers was a radical message that challenged both Jewish and Greco-Roman thought.
