Strong's Lexicon diaggelló: To proclaim thoroughly, to declare, to announce Original Word: διαγγέλλω Word Origin: From διά (dia, meaning "through" or "thoroughly") and ἀγγέλλω (angelló, meaning "to announce" or "to proclaim"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for διαγγέλλω, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words like נָגַד (nagad, Strong's H5046), meaning "to declare" or "to make known." Usage: The verb διαγγέλλω is used in the New Testament to convey the act of making a proclamation or announcement with authority and clarity. It implies a thorough and public declaration, often associated with the dissemination of important news or messages. This term is used to describe the act of spreading the message of the Gospel or other significant declarations. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, public proclamations were a common means of communication, often used by heralds to announce official decrees, news, or events. The use of διαγγέλλω in the New Testament reflects this cultural practice, emphasizing the importance and urgency of the message being proclaimed. The early Christian community adopted this term to describe the spreading of the Gospel, highlighting the authoritative and public nature of their mission.
