Strong's Lexicon suschématizó: To conform, to fashion oneself according to Original Word: συσχηματίζω Word Origin: From the Greek prefix σύν (syn, meaning "with" or "together") and σχῆμα (schéma, meaning "form" or "appearance"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συσχηματίζω, the concept of conformity can be related to Hebrew words like תָּכַן (takan, meaning "to measure" or "to regulate") and דָּמָה (damah, meaning "to resemble" or "to be like"). Usage: The verb συσχηματίζω means to conform or to shape oneself according to a particular pattern or model. It implies an external conformity to a standard or example, often with the nuance of adapting to the surrounding environment or societal norms. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, conformity to societal norms and expectations was a common practice, as social harmony and order were highly valued. The concept of conforming to the image or pattern of something was well understood in a culture that emphasized public behavior and appearances. In the New Testament, this term is used to contrast the temporary and external nature of worldly conformity with the transformative and internal work of God in a believer's life.
