Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἀποκυλίω, the concept of rolling away or removing a stone can be related to Hebrew verbs such as גָּלַל (galal), which means "to roll" or "to roll away." This Hebrew verb is used in various contexts in the Old Testament, often involving the physical act of rolling or moving objects. Usage: The verb ἀποκυλίω is used in the New Testament to describe the action of rolling away a stone, particularly in the context of the resurrection narrative. Context: The Greek verb ἀποκυλίω appears in the New Testament in the context of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is specifically used to describe the action of rolling away the stone from the entrance of Jesus' tomb. This term is significant in the resurrection narrative, symbolizing the removal of the barrier to the empty tomb and the revelation of the risen Christ. The act of rolling away the stone is a divine intervention, emphasizing the power of God over death and the grave. In the Gospel accounts, the stone's removal is a pivotal moment that allows the women and the disciples to witness the empty tomb, confirming the resurrection. The use of ἀποκυλίω highlights the physical and symbolic act of unveiling the truth of the resurrection, a cornerstone of Christian faith.
