Usage: The verb ἐκχωρέω is used to describe the action of departing or withdrawing from a place or situation. It conveys the idea of making room by moving out or stepping aside. In the New Testament, it often implies a physical departure or a metaphorical withdrawal from a particular state or condition. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of withdrawing or departing was often associated with making space for others, whether in a physical sense or in terms of social or political dynamics.
