5265. hupodeó
Strong's Lexicon
hupodeó: To bind under, to put on (as in sandals)

Original Word: ὑποδέω
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: hupodeó
Pronunciation: hoo-pod-eh'-o
Phonetic Spelling: (hoop-od-eh'-o)
Definition: To bind under, to put on (as in sandals)
Meaning: (lit: I bind under), mid: I put on my feet, pass: I am shod.

Word Origin: From the preposition ὑπό (hupo, meaning "under") and δέω (deo, meaning "to bind" or "to tie")

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "hupodeó," the concept of binding or fastening is present in Hebrew words like אָסַר (asar, Strong's H631) meaning "to bind" or "to tie."

Usage: The verb "hupodeó" primarily means to bind or fasten under, specifically referring to the act of putting on sandals. In the cultural context of the New Testament, this action was a common daily practice, as sandals were the typical footwear in the ancient Near East. The term can also metaphorically imply preparation or readiness, as putting on sandals was often a precursor to travel or action.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient world, particularly in the Greco-Roman and Jewish contexts, sandals were essential for protection against the rough terrain and harsh climate. The act of putting on sandals was not only practical but also symbolic of readiness and mobility. In Jewish tradition, the removal of sandals could signify reverence or mourning, while the act of putting them on indicated readiness to serve or embark on a journey.
