Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From the combination of the preposition "παρά" (para, meaning "beside" or "alongside") and the verb "εἰσδύω" (eisdýō, meaning "to enter" or "to slip in").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for παρεισδύω, the concept of deceitful infiltration can be related to Hebrew terms that describe deceit or treachery, such as רָמָה (ramah, Strong's Hebrew 7411) meaning "to deceive" or "to beguile," and נָכַל (nakal, Strong's Hebrew 5230) meaning "to act deceitfully." These terms similarly convey the idea of cunning or deceptive behavior that is condemned in the biblical narrative. Usage: This term is used in the New Testament to describe the act of entering or infiltrating in a covert or surreptitious manner, often with the implication of deceit or ulterior motives. Context: The Greek verb παρεισδύω (pareisdýō) appears in the New Testament in contexts that suggest a secretive or deceptive entry. It is used to describe individuals who infiltrate a group or community with the intent to deceive or corrupt. The term carries a negative connotation, often associated with false teachings or heretical influences that threaten the integrity of the Christian faith.
