Strong's Lexicon eispédaó: To fall upon, to rush into Original Word: εἰσπέδανω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: eispédaó Pronunciation: ice-PED-ah-oh Phonetic Spelling: (ice-pay-dah'-o) Definition: I leap into, rush into. Meaning: The term εἰσπέδανω generally means "to fall into" or "to descend upon the ground." Word Origin: This word is a compound of two Greek words: εἰς (eis, meaning "into" or "in") and πέδον (pedon, meaning "ground" or "earth"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for εἰσπέδανω, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words related to falling or descending. Some potential corresponding entries might include: • Strong's Hebrew 5307 (נָפַל, naphal): Meaning "to fall," often used in contexts of physical falling or metaphorical descent. • Strong's Hebrew 3381 (יָרַד, yarad): Meaning "to go down" or "to descend," used in various contexts including physical movement and spiritual connotations. This entry provides a comprehensive understanding of the Greek term εἰσπέδανω, exploring its linguistic roots, potential usage, and theological significance, even though it does not appear in the New Testament canon. Usage: This word is not found in the canonical texts of the New Testament. It is a rare term that might appear in other Greek literature or apocryphal writings, typically used to describe a physical action of falling or descending onto the ground. Context: • Contextual Analysis: Although εἰσπέδανω does not appear in the New Testament, understanding its components can provide insight into its potential usage. The prefix εἰς (eis) suggests movement or direction towards something, while πέδον (pedon) refers to the ground or earth. Thus, the word could be used metaphorically to describe a sudden or forceful action, such as a fall or descent. • Theological Implications: In a broader theological context, the concept of falling or descending can be associated with themes of humility, submission, or judgment. For example, the act of falling to the ground in worship or supplication is a common biblical motif, symbolizing reverence and humility before God. • Comparative Literature: In non-biblical Greek literature, similar compound words might describe physical actions or movements, often with dramatic or significant implications. This can include descriptions of warriors falling in battle or divine beings descending to earth.
