Strong's Lexicon exoudeneó: To despise, to treat with contempt, to regard as nothing Original Word: ἐξουθενέω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: exoudeneó Pronunciation: ex-oo-then-eh'-o Phonetic Spelling: (ex-oo-den-o'-o) Definition: I set at naught, ignore, despise. Meaning: To despise, treat with contempt, or regard as nothing. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek words ἐκ (ek, meaning "out of") and οὐθέν (outhen, meaning "nothing"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • H959 בָּזָה (bazah): To despise, hold in contempt. • H2151 זָלַל (zalal): To be worthless, to despise. • H5006 נָאַץ (na'ats): To spurn, treat with contempt. These Hebrew terms share a similar semantic range with ἐξουθενέω, emphasizing attitudes of disdain and the devaluation of others, which are consistently addressed throughout the biblical narrative. Usage: The term ἐξουθενέω is used in the New Testament to describe an attitude of disdain or contempt towards someone or something, often implying a rejection or devaluation of the person or thing in question. Context: The Greek verb ἐξουθενέω appears in several New Testament passages, conveying a sense of disdain or contempt. It is often used in contexts where individuals or groups are undervalued or dismissed. This term reflects a heart attitude that fails to recognize the inherent worth or significance of others, often leading to actions or judgments that are dismissive or derogatory. In the Berean Standard Bible, ἐξουθενέω is translated in various ways, depending on the context. For example, in Luke 18:9, it describes those who "trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others." This usage highlights the self-righteous attitude that leads to looking down on others. Similarly, in Romans 14:3, it is used in the context of dietary practices, where believers are admonished not to "despise" those who eat differently, emphasizing the importance of mutual respect and acceptance within the Christian community. The term also appears in 1 Corinthians 1:28, where God chooses the "lowly and despised things of the world" to shame the wise, illustrating the divine reversal of human values and the elevation of what is often disregarded by society. This reflects a recurring biblical theme where God values what the world often overlooks or deems insignificant. Overall, ἐξουθενέω serves as a reminder of the call to humility and the recognition of the value and dignity of all individuals, as created in the image of God. It challenges believers to examine their attitudes and actions towards others, ensuring they align with the love and respect that Christ exemplifies.
