Strong's Lexicon eklampó: To shine forth, to radiate, to emit light Original Word: ἐκλάμπω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: eklampó Pronunciation: ek-lam'-po Phonetic Spelling: (ek-lam'-po) Definition: I shine forth (out). Meaning: To shine forth, to emit light, to radiate brightness. Word Origin: From the preposition ἐκ (ek, meaning "out of" or "from") and the verb λάμπω (lampō, meaning "to shine" or "to give light"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of shining or emitting light in the Hebrew Bible is often conveyed by words such as אוֹר (or, Strong's Hebrew 216), which means "light" or "to be light," and זָהַר (zahar, Strong's Hebrew 2094), which means "to shine" or "to be bright." These Hebrew terms similarly express the idea of divine illumination and the manifestation of God's glory. Usage: The verb ἐκλάμπω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of shining forth or emitting light. It conveys the idea of radiance or brightness emanating from a source. Context: The Greek verb ἐκλάμπω appears in the New Testament to describe the phenomenon of light shining out or being emitted. This term is often used metaphorically to describe the manifestation of divine glory or truth. In the Berean Standard Bible, ἐκλάμπω is used in contexts that emphasize the revelation of God's glory or the illumination of spiritual truth. For example, in Matthew 13:43, the term is used to describe the righteous shining forth in the kingdom of their Father: "Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear." This passage highlights the eschatological hope and the ultimate vindication and glorification of the righteous, who will reflect the glory of God in the fullness of His kingdom. The use of ἐκλάμπω underscores the transformative power of God's presence and the ultimate revelation of His truth and glory. It serves as a reminder of the divine light that believers are called to reflect in their lives, pointing to the future reality of God's kingdom where His glory will be fully revealed.
