Strong's Lexicon entrepó: To turn, to respect, to shame, to reverence Original Word: ἐντρέπω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: entrepó Pronunciation: en-tre'-po Phonetic Spelling: (en-trep'-o) Definition: (a) I turn to confusion, put to shame, (b) mid: I reverence, regard. Meaning: The verb ἐντρέπω primarily means "to turn about" or "to turn to," and by extension, it can mean "to respect," "to regard," "to put to shame," or "to cause to feel shame." Word Origin: From the combination of ἐν (en, "in") and τρέπω (trepō, "to turn"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἐντρέπω, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words related to respect and shame, such as יָרֵא (yare, Strong's 3372, "to fear, to respect") and בּוֹשׁ (bosh, Strong's 954, "to be ashamed"). These Hebrew terms capture the dual aspects of reverence and shame that ἐντρέπω conveys in the Greek New Testament. Usage: The term ἐντρέπω is used in various contexts in the New Testament, often conveying the idea of causing someone to feel respect or shame. It can imply a turning of one's attention or attitude, either in a positive sense of respect or a negative sense of shame. Context: The Greek verb ἐντρέπω appears in several New Testament passages, each illustrating its nuanced meanings. In the context of respect, it is used in the sense of showing regard or deference. For example, in the parable of the unjust judge in Luke 18:2-5, the judge eventually grants the widow's request because he does not want to be worn out by her continual coming, showing a form of reluctant respect or regard for her persistence. In another context, ἐντρέπω is used to convey the idea of causing someone to feel shame or embarrassment. In 1 Corinthians 4:14, Paul writes, "I am not writing this to shame you, but to warn you as my beloved children." Here, the term is used to express the idea of admonishing or correcting in a way that might lead to a change in behavior or attitude. The verb also appears in 2 Thessalonians 3:14, where Paul instructs the church to take note of those who do not obey his instructions and to have nothing to do with them, "so that they may be ashamed." This usage highlights the corrective and disciplinary aspect of the term, aiming to bring about repentance and restoration. Overall, ἐντρέπω encompasses a range of meanings from respect to shame, depending on the context, and is often used in relational or corrective scenarios within the New Testament.
