Strong's Lexicon katakléronomeó: To inherit, to receive an inheritance Original Word: κατακληρονομέω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: katakléronomeó Pronunciation: kat-ak-lay-ron-om-eh'-o Phonetic Spelling: (kat-ak-lay-rod-ot-eh'-o) Definition: To inherit, to receive an inheritance Meaning: I give as an inheritance, distribute by lot. Word Origin: From the Greek words κατά (kata, meaning "down" or "according to") and κληρονομέω (kléronomeó, meaning "to inherit"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of inheritance is נָחַל (nachal, Strong's H5157), which means "to inherit" or "to possess." Usage: The verb κατακληρονομέω (katakléronomeó) is used to describe the act of receiving an inheritance or being allotted a portion. It conveys the idea of obtaining something as a rightful heir, often implying a distribution according to a predetermined plan or will. In the New Testament, it is used to express the spiritual inheritance that believers receive through faith in Christ. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, inheritance was a significant aspect of family and social structure. It was typically passed down from father to son, ensuring the continuation of family wealth and status. The concept of inheritance in the Bible often extends beyond material possessions to include spiritual blessings and promises. In the Old Testament, the land of Canaan was described as an inheritance for the Israelites, symbolizing God's covenantal promises. In the New Testament, the idea of inheritance is expanded to include the spiritual blessings and eternal life promised to believers in Christ.
