Strong's Lexicon aporiptó: To cast away, to throw off, to reject Original Word: ἀπορίπτω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: aporiptó Pronunciation: ah-po-REEP-to Phonetic Spelling: (ap-or-hrip'-to) Definition: To cast away, to throw off, to reject Meaning: I throw away from, throw overboard. Word Origin: From the Greek prefix ἀπό (apo, meaning "away from") and ῥίπτω (rhipto, meaning "to throw" or "to cast"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of casting away or rejecting is זָנַח (zanach, Strong's H2186), which means to reject or forsake. Usage: The verb ἀπορίπτω (aporiptó) is used to describe the action of casting away or rejecting something. It conveys a sense of deliberate action to remove or discard something that is no longer desired or needed. In a biblical context, it often implies a rejection of something that is considered unworthy or unclean. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, the act of casting away or rejecting something could be both a physical and symbolic gesture. It was common in various rituals and practices to cast away items as a sign of purification or to signify the removal of impurities. In the context of the New Testament, this term would resonate with the audience's understanding of purity laws and the need to separate from what is considered defiling or sinful.
