Strong's Lexicon aponemó: To assign, to distribute, to apportion Original Word: ἀπονέμω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: aponemó Pronunciation: ah-po-NEH-mo Phonetic Spelling: (ap-on-em'-o) Definition: To assign, to distribute, to apportion Meaning: I assign, apportion, render (as due). Word Origin: From the Greek prefix ἀπό (apo, meaning "from" or "away") and νέμω (nemo, meaning "to distribute" or "to assign"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἀπονέμω, the concept of distribution and apportionment can be related to Hebrew terms such as חָלַק (chalak, Strong's H2505), meaning "to divide" or "to apportion." Usage: The verb ἀπονέμω (aponemó) is used to describe the act of assigning or distributing something, often in the context of giving out portions or allotments. It implies a deliberate and thoughtful distribution, often with a sense of fairness or justice. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of distributing or apportioning was significant in various aspects of life, including inheritance, governance, and religious practices. The act of distribution was often associated with authority and responsibility, as it required discernment and fairness. In the biblical context, this term would resonate with the Jewish understanding of justice and the equitable distribution of resources, as seen in the laws of inheritance and the Year of Jubilee.
