These Hebrew terms share a similar semantic field with ὁδοιπορέω, emphasizing movement, travel, and the concept of a path or journey, both in a literal and metaphorical sense.

Usage: The verb ὁδοιπορέω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of traveling or journeying, often with a focus on the physical act of moving from one place to another along a road or path.

Context: The Greek verb ὁδοιπορέω appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize the physical act of traveling or journeying. It is used to describe the movement of individuals or groups as they traverse roads or paths, often in the context of significant events or teachings. The term underscores the physical and sometimes arduous nature of travel in the ancient world, where journeys were undertaken on foot or by simple means of transportation.

In the Berean Standard Bible, ὁδοιπορέω is used in passages that highlight the itinerant nature of certain biblical figures, such as Jesus and His disciples, who traveled extensively to preach and teach. The act of journeying is often associated with divine purpose or mission, reflecting the broader biblical theme of pilgrimage and spiritual journey.

For example, in the account of the road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35), the use of ὁδοιπορέω captures the physical journey of the disciples as they walk and discuss the recent events of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. This journey becomes a pivotal moment of revelation and understanding as the risen Christ appears to them.
