Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for προπέμπω, the concept of sending or accompanying someone on a journey can be related to several Hebrew terms that involve sending or guiding, such as שָׁלַח (shalach, Strong's Hebrew 7971), which means "to send," and נָחָה (nachah, Strong's Hebrew 5148), meaning "to lead" or "to guide." These terms capture the essence of providing direction and support, akin to the New Testament usage of προπέμπω. Usage: The term προπέμπω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of sending someone on their way, often with provisions or support for their journey. It implies a sense of hospitality and care for the traveler. Context: The Greek verb προπέμπω appears in several New Testament passages, illustrating the early Christian practice of supporting and sending forth individuals on their missions or journeys. This term conveys more than just the act of sending; it includes the idea of providing necessary support and encouragement.
