Strong's Lexicon epeidon: To look upon, to regard, to consider Original Word: ἐπείδον Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: epeidon Pronunciation: eh-PAY-don Phonetic Spelling: (ep-i'-don) Definition: To look upon, to regard, to consider Meaning: I looked upon, regarded. Word Origin: From the preposition ἐπί (epi, meaning "upon" or "on") and the verb εἶδον (eidon, meaning "to see" or "to look"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of looking or regarding with favor is רָאָה (ra'ah, Strong's H7200), which means "to see" or "to look." Usage: The verb "epeidon" is used in the New Testament to convey the act of looking upon or regarding something or someone with attention or consideration. It implies a deliberate and focused observation, often with an element of care or concern. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, seeing or looking upon something was often associated with understanding and perception. The act of looking was not merely a physical action but also carried connotations of insight and discernment. In the context of the New Testament, "epeidon" reflects a deeper, more intentional form of observation, often associated with divine attention or human contemplation.
