Word Origin: Derived from two Greek words: ὀρθός (orthos), meaning "straight" or "upright," and ποδέω (podeō), meaning "to walk" or "to tread."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ὀρθοποδέω, the concept of walking uprightly is reflected in several Hebrew terms, such as:
H3474 (יָשַׁר, yashar): To be straight, right, or upright.
H1980 (הָלַךְ, halak): To walk, go, or proceed, often used metaphorically to describe one's conduct or way of life.

These Hebrew terms similarly convey the idea of living in a manner that is pleasing to God, characterized by righteousness and adherence to His commandments.

Usage: This term is not used in the Berean Standard Bible (BSB) but is found in some Greek manuscripts of the New Testament, specifically in Galatians 2:14, where it describes the act of walking in accordance with the truth of the Gospel.

Context: The Greek verb ὀρθοποδέω (orthopodeō) is a compound word that conveys the idea of walking in a straight path, both literally and metaphorically. In the context of the New Testament, it is used to describe the behavior expected of believers who are to live in alignment with the teachings of the Gospel. The term appears in Galatians 2:14, where the Apostle Paul confronts Peter for not acting consistently with the truth of the Gospel. Paul uses this term to emphasize the importance of integrity and consistency in one's conduct as a follower of Christ. The concept of walking uprightly is a recurring theme in biblical teachings, often associated with righteousness and moral integrity.
