These Hebrew terms share a similar semantic range with ἐκδίδωμι, involving the act of giving, delivering, or handing over, and are used in various contexts throughout the Old Testament.

Usage: The term ἐκδίδωμι is used in the New Testament to describe the act of giving out or delivering something or someone. It can refer to the act of handing over a person, such as in a legal or judicial context, or the act of delivering something to someone else.

Context: The Greek verb ἐκδίδωμι appears in the New Testament in contexts that involve the transfer or handing over of a person or object. It is often used in legal or formal settings, where an individual is delivered or handed over to another party. This term can be seen in the context of Jesus being handed over to the authorities, as well as in parables where servants or goods are entrusted to others.

In the Berean Standard Bible, ἐκδίδωμι is used to convey the idea of delivering or entrusting something significant. For example, in the parable of the tenants, the landowner "leased" (ἐκδίδωμι) his vineyard to tenants (Matthew 21:33). This usage highlights the act of entrusting something valuable to others with the expectation of receiving a return.

Theologically, ἐκδίδωμι can also reflect the concept of divine sovereignty and human responsibility. When God "gives over" individuals to their desires or actions, it underscores the seriousness of human choices and the consequences that follow. This term, therefore, carries both a literal and metaphorical weight, emphasizing the act of giving or delivering in both physical and spiritual dimensions.
