Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for διαδίδωμι, the concept of distribution and sharing is reflected in Hebrew words like חָלַק (chalak, Strong's H2505), meaning "to divide" or "to apportion."

Usage: The verb διαδίδωμι (diadidómi) primarily means to distribute or to give out. It conveys the action of dividing something among several recipients or spreading something widely. In the New Testament, it is often used in the context of sharing resources or information among a group of people.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of distribution was significant in both social and economic contexts. Distribution of goods, wealth, or information was a common practice in community life, often associated with hospitality, charity, and the sharing of resources. The early Christian communities emphasized the sharing of possessions and resources as a reflection of their unity and love for one another, which was countercultural to the prevailing norms of individual ownership and wealth accumulation.
