Berean Strong's Lexicon hugiainó: To be sound, to be healthy, to be well Original Word: ὑγιαίνω Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word ὑγιής (hugiēs), meaning "healthy" or "sound." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ὑγιαίνω, the concept of health and soundness can be related to Hebrew words like שָׁלוֹם (shalom, Strong's H7965), which encompasses peace, completeness, and welfare. Usage: The verb ὑγιαίνω (hugiainó) primarily denotes being in good physical health or sound condition. In the New Testament, it is often used metaphorically to describe soundness in faith, doctrine, or teaching. It conveys the idea of spiritual health and integrity, emphasizing the importance of adhering to true and wholesome teachings. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, physical health was highly valued, and the concept of being "sound" extended beyond the physical to include moral and intellectual dimensions. The New Testament writers, particularly Paul, adopted this term to emphasize the importance of doctrinal purity and spiritual well-being within the early Christian communities. The metaphor of health was a powerful way to communicate the necessity of maintaining the integrity of the faith amidst false teachings and heresies. HELPS Word-studies 5198 hygiaínō (the root of the English term, "hygiene") – properly, in good working order – hence, "healthy," in sound condition (in-balance). 5198 /hygiaínō ("healthy, working well") means to be free from debilitation (incapacity, handicap) – hence, functioning holistically with all parts working together ("sound"). [5198 (hygiaínō) is opposite to having a debilitating sickness. Thus it became the ideal way to open and close personal letters in ancient times – i.e. wishing someone total health (MM).] NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom hugiés Definition to be sound, healthy NASB Translation good health (2), safe and sound (1), sound (8), well (1).
