◄ 4311. propempó ►
Strong's Lexicon propempó: To send forth, to accompany, to escort Original Word: προπέμπω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: propempó Pronunciation: pro-PEM-po Phonetic Spelling: (prop-em'-po) Definition: To send forth, to accompany, to escort Meaning: I send forward, accompany, equip for a journey. Word Origin: From πρό (pro, "before") and πέμπω (pempo, "to send") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "propempó," the concept of sending forth with blessing and support can be seen in the Hebrew word שָׁלַח (shalach, Strong's H7971), which means "to send." Usage: The Greek verb "propempó" primarily means to send someone on their way with support or to accompany them part of the journey. It conveys the idea of providing assistance, guidance, or a formal send-off, often with provisions or blessings. In the New Testament, it is used in the context of believers supporting and accompanying fellow Christians as they embark on their missions or travels. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greco-Roman world, travel was often perilous and challenging. It was customary for hosts to provide travelers with provisions, guidance, and sometimes even an escort to ensure their safety and success on their journey. This practice was especially important in the early Christian community, where itinerant preachers and missionaries relied on the hospitality and support of local believers as they spread the Gospel.
