Strong's Lexicon hupolambanó: To take up, to assume, to suppose, to reply Original Word: ὑπολαμβάνω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: hupolambanó Pronunciation: hoo-pol-am-ban'-o Phonetic Spelling: (hoop-ol-am-ban'-o) Definition: To take up, to assume, to suppose, to reply Meaning: (a) I take up, (b) I welcome, entertain, (c) I answer, (d) I suppose, imagine. Word Origin: From the preposition ὑπό (hupo, meaning "under") and the verb λαμβάνω (lambanó, meaning "to take" or "to receive"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ὑπολαμβάνω, the concept of assuming or supposing can be related to Hebrew verbs like חָשַׁב (chashav, Strong's 2803), meaning "to think" or "to consider." Usage: The verb ὑπολαμβάνω (hupolambanó) is used in the New Testament to convey the act of taking up or assuming something, often in the sense of forming an opinion or making a supposition. It can also mean to respond or reply, particularly in a conversational context. The term implies an action of the mind or speech, where one takes up an idea or responds to a statement. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the act of assuming or supposing was a common part of philosophical discourse and daily conversation. The ability to form assumptions or respond to dialogue was valued in rhetoric and debate. The New Testament usage reflects these cultural practices, where dialogue and the exchange of ideas were integral to teaching and learning.
