Strong's Lexicon epichorégeó: To supply, to provide, to furnish abundantly Original Word: ἐπιχορηγέω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: epichorégeó Pronunciation: eh-pee-khor-ay-GEH-oh Phonetic Spelling: (ep-ee-khor-ayg-eh'-o) Definition: I supply, provide (perhaps lavishly), furnish. Meaning: To supply, furnish, or provide generously; to add or contribute to something in abundance. Word Origin: From the Greek preposition ἐπί (epi, meaning "upon" or "in addition to") and χορηγέω (chorēgeō, meaning "to supply" or "to furnish"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἐπιχορηγέω, the concept of providing or supplying abundantly can be related to several Hebrew words that convey similar meanings, such as: - יָסַף (yasaph, Strong's Hebrew 3254): To add, increase, do again. - נָתַן (nathan, Strong's Hebrew 5414): To give, put, set. - שָׁפַע (shapha, Strong's Hebrew 8199): To abound, overflow. These Hebrew terms reflect the idea of adding, giving, or providing in abundance, which aligns with the meaning of ἐπιχορηγέω in the Greek New Testament. Usage: The verb ἐπιχορηγέω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of supplying or providing something in a generous or abundant manner. It often conveys the idea of a rich or lavish provision. Context: The Greek verb ἐπιχορηγέω appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize the generous and abundant provision of resources or qualities. It is used metaphorically to describe the divine provision of spiritual resources or virtues to believers. In 2 Peter 1:5, the apostle Peter uses ἐπιχορηγέω to encourage believers to "make every effort to add to your faith virtue; and to virtue, knowledge." Here, the term suggests an active and generous effort to cultivate and supply one's faith with additional virtues, indicating a process of spiritual growth and enrichment. Similarly, in 2 Corinthians 9:10, Paul uses a related form of the word to describe God's provision: "Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your store of seed and will increase the harvest of your righteousness." This passage highlights God's role as the provider who abundantly supplies and multiplies resources for the purpose of righteousness. The use of ἐπιχορηγέω in these contexts underscores the concept of divine generosity and the expectation that believers will actively participate in the process of spiritual development by adding to their faith and character.
