It can refer to physical objects being placed or metaphorically to concepts such as laws, destinies, or purposes being established. Context: The Greek verb κεῖμαι appears in various contexts throughout the New Testament, often conveying the idea of something being positioned or established. It is used both in literal and figurative senses. For instance, in a literal sense, it can describe the physical placement of objects, such as in Luke 2:12, "This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger." Here, κεῖμαι describes the baby Jesus being physically laid in a manger.
