Strong's Lexicon plésmoné: Fulness, satisfaction, abundance Original Word: πλησμονή Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb πίμπλημι (pimplēmi), meaning "to fill" or "to satisfy." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of fullness or satisfaction is שָׂבַע (saba, Strong's Hebrew 7646), which also conveys the idea of being sated or having enough. Usage: The term "plésmoné" refers to a state of being filled or satisfied, often in the context of physical or material abundance. It conveys the idea of having more than enough to meet one's needs, leading to a sense of contentment or satiation. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of abundance was often associated with prosperity and divine favor. The idea of being filled or satisfied was not only a physical state but also had spiritual and philosophical connotations. In Jewish thought, abundance was seen as a blessing from God, a sign of His provision and care for His people. The New Testament writers often used such terms to contrast spiritual fulfillment with mere physical satisfaction.
