3822. palaioó

Strong's Lexicon

palaioó: to make old, to become obsolete, to grow old

Original Word: παλαιόω
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: palaioó
Pronunciation: pah-lah-ee-OH-o
Phonetic Spelling: (pal-ah-yo'-o)
Definition: to make old, to become obsolete, to grow old
Meaning: I make old, declare obsolete; pass: I grow old, become obsolete.

Word Origin: From the Greek adjective παλαιός (palaios), meaning "old" or "ancient."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of becoming old or obsolete can be related to the Hebrew word בָּלָה (balah - Strong's H1086), which means to wear out or decay.

Usage: The verb παλαιόω is used in the New Testament to convey the idea of something becoming old, worn out, or obsolete. It often implies a transition from a former state to one that is no longer effective or relevant. This term is used metaphorically to describe the obsolescence of the old covenant in light of the new covenant established through Jesus Christ.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of something becoming old or obsolete was often associated with the natural process of aging and decay. In the context of the New Testament, this idea is applied to the Jewish law and covenant, which were seen as being fulfilled and thus rendered obsolete by the new covenant through Christ. This reflects the early Christian understanding of the transition from the old covenant, based on the law, to the new covenant, based on grace and truth through Jesus.
