Meaning: To hide, conceal, keep secret Word Origin: A primary verb Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Hebrew 5641: סָתַר (sathar) • to hide, conceal • Strong's Hebrew 6845: צָפַן (tsaphan) • to hide, treasure up • Strong's Hebrew 2244: חָבָא (chaba) • to hide, withdraw These Hebrew terms share similar meanings with κρύπτω, often used in the Old Testament to describe acts of hiding or concealing, whether in a physical or metaphorical sense. Usage: The verb κρύπτω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of hiding or concealing something, whether it be physical objects, truths, or intentions. It often implies a deliberate action to keep something from being seen or known. Context: The Greek verb κρύπτω appears in various contexts throughout the New Testament, illustrating both literal and metaphorical uses. It is often employed to describe the act of hiding physical objects or people, as well as concealing truths or intentions. In Matthew 5:14, Jesus uses the metaphor of a city on a hill that cannot be hidden to illustrate the visibility and influence of His followers: "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden." Here, κρύπτω underscores the impossibility of concealing the light of a true believer. In Matthew 13:44, the kingdom of heaven is likened to treasure hidden in a field: "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field." This parable uses κρύπτω to convey the value and preciousness of the kingdom, which is worth any sacrifice to obtain. The verb also appears in contexts of divine concealment and revelation. In Matthew 11:25, Jesus praises the Father for hiding certain truths from the wise and learned: "At that time Jesus declared, 'I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.'" Here, κρύπτω highlights the selective revelation of divine truths according to God's wisdom. Additionally, κρύπτω is used in the context of human actions and intentions. In Luke 8:17, Jesus teaches about the eventual revelation of hidden things: "For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light." This underscores the ultimate accountability and transparency before God. Overall, κρύπτω serves as a powerful verb in the New Testament, emphasizing themes of revelation, concealment, and the inherent value of the truths of God's kingdom.
