Strong's Lexicon ekdidómi: To give up, to hand over, to deliver Original Word: ἐκδίδωμι Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: ekdidómi Pronunciation: ek-DEE-do-mee Phonetic Spelling: (ek-did-o'-mee) Definition: To give up, to hand over, to deliver Meaning: I give out, let; middle: I let out for my own advantage. Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "ἐκ" (ek, meaning "out of") and the verb "δίδωμι" (didómi, meaning "to give"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is "נָתַן" (nathan, Strong's Hebrew 5414), which means to give, put, or set. Usage: The verb "ekdidómi" primarily means to give up or hand over something or someone. In the New Testament, it is often used in contexts where a person is delivered or handed over to another, sometimes with the connotation of betrayal or surrender. It can also imply the act of entrusting something to someone else. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of handing over or delivering something was common in legal and social contexts. It could refer to the transfer of property, the delivery of a message, or the surrender of a person to authorities. The term carries significant weight in the New Testament, especially in the context of Jesus' betrayal and crucifixion, where He was "handed over" to the authorities.
