Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for διαχειρίζομαι, similar concepts of handling or dealing with someone, especially with intent to harm, can be found in Hebrew verbs such as יָדָה (yadah, Strong's Hebrew 3034) in the sense of throwing or casting, and נָתַן (nathan, Strong's Hebrew 5414) in the sense of giving or delivering into someone's hands. These Hebrew terms often appear in contexts involving control, authority, or harm, paralleling the usage of διαχειρίζομαι in the Greek New Testament. Usage: The verb διαχειρίζομαι is used in the New Testament to describe the act of handling or dealing with something or someone, often with the implication of control or harm. It appears in contexts where there is an intention to exert power or authority over another, sometimes with violent intent. Context: The Greek verb διαχειρίζομαι is found in the New Testament in Acts 5:30, where it is used to describe the actions of those who laid hands on Jesus with the intent to kill Him. The verse reads: "The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you had killed by hanging Him on a tree." Here, διαχειρίζομαι conveys the notion of handling or dealing with Jesus in a manner that led to His crucifixion. This term underscores the severity and intent behind the actions of those who sought to exert control over Jesus, ultimately leading to His death. The use of διαχειρίζομαι in this context highlights the fulfillment of divine prophecy and the unfolding of God's redemptive plan through the suffering and resurrection of Christ.
