Strong's Lexicon epichorégeó: To supply, to provide, to furnish abundantly Original Word: ἐπιχορηγέω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "epi" (ἐπί), meaning "upon" or "in addition to," and "chorēgeō" (χορηγέω), meaning "to supply" or "to furnish." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "epichorégéō," the concept of God's provision and supply can be seen in Hebrew words like "יַשְׁפִּיק" (yashpiq), meaning "to supply" or "to provide," and "מָלֵא" (male), meaning "to fill" or "to fulfill." Usage: The verb "epichorégéō" conveys the idea of supplying or providing something in a generous or abundant manner. It often implies a sense of lavish provision or support, going beyond mere sufficiency to ensure that what is needed is fully and richly supplied. In the New Testament, it is used to describe God's provision for believers, as well as the call for believers to supply virtues in their faith. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, the term "chorēgeō" was associated with the funding of public performances, such as theatrical productions, by wealthy patrons. These patrons, known as "chorēgoi," would provide the necessary resources to ensure the success of the performance. The prefix "epi" intensifies the action, suggesting an even greater level of provision. This cultural backdrop highlights the concept of generous and abundant support, which is reflected in the New Testament usage of "epichorégéō."
