Strong's Lexicon peripheró: To carry about, to carry around Original Word: περιφέρω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: peripheró Pronunciation: pe-ree-FE-ro Phonetic Spelling: (per-ee-fer'-o) Definition: To carry about, to carry around Meaning: I carry around; pass: I am driven to and fro. Word Origin: From the Greek words "peri" (meaning "around") and "pheró" (meaning "to carry" or "to bear"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "peripheró," the concept of being carried or influenced can be related to Hebrew words like "נָשָׂא" (nasa, Strong's H5375), which means "to lift, carry, or bear." Usage: The verb "peripheró" is used in the New Testament to describe the act of carrying or bearing something around. It often implies movement or being moved from one place to another. The term can be used both literally, as in physically carrying an object, and metaphorically, as in being swayed or influenced by various teachings or ideas. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of carrying or bearing something around was common in both everyday life and philosophical discourse. The term "peripheró" would have been understood in the context of travel, trade, and the dissemination of ideas. Philosophers and teachers often traveled, carrying their teachings with them, which could influence the use of this term in a metaphorical sense.
