◄ 5225. huparchó ►
Strong's Lexicon huparchó: To exist, to be, to possess Original Word: ὑπάρχω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: huparchó Pronunciation: hoop-ar'-kho Phonetic Spelling: (hoop-ar'-kho) Definition: To exist, to be, to possess Meaning: I begin, am, exist, am in possession. Word Origin: From the combination of "hypo" (under) and "archo" (to begin, to rule) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "huparchó," the concept of existence and possession can be related to Hebrew words like "הָיָה" (hayah, Strong's H1961), meaning "to be" or "to exist." Usage: The verb "huparchó" primarily means "to exist" or "to be" in a state or condition. It is often used to describe the existence or possession of something, whether physical or abstract. In the New Testament, it conveys the idea of being in a particular state or having certain attributes or possessions. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of existence and possession was often tied to one's social status and material wealth. The use of "huparchó" in the New Testament reflects a deeper theological understanding of existence, not merely in terms of material possessions but also in spiritual and relational terms. The early Christian community redefined what it meant to "exist" or "possess" by emphasizing spiritual wealth and identity in Christ over worldly status.
