These Hebrew terms align with the concept of rebuilding and restoration found in ἀνοικοδομέω, emphasizing the continuity of this theme throughout the biblical narrative.

Usage: The term ἀνοικοδομέω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of rebuilding or restoring, often in a metaphorical sense, referring to spiritual or communal restoration.

Context: The Greek verb ἀνοικοδομέω appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize restoration and renewal. It is used to describe both physical rebuilding and spiritual renewal. This term is significant in understanding the biblical theme of restoration, where God promises to restore what has been broken or lost.

In the Berean Standard Bible, ἀνοικοδομέω is used in passages that highlight God's redemptive work. For example, in Acts 15:16, it is quoted from the prophecy of Amos, "‘After this I will return and rebuild David’s fallen tent. Its ruins I will rebuild, and I will restore it." This passage underscores the promise of restoring the Davidic kingdom, symbolizing the restoration of God's people through the Messiah.

The concept of rebuilding is not limited to physical structures but extends to the spiritual restoration of individuals and communities. The use of ἀνοικοδομέω in the New Testament reflects the hope and assurance of God's ongoing work to renew and restore His creation.
