Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: From σύν (syn, "together") and λέγω (legō, "to gather" or "to collect")

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • 0622 אָסַף (asaph): To gather, to collect, to assemble. This Hebrew term is often used in the Old Testament to describe the gathering of people or resources, similar to the Greek συλλέγω.
• 06908 קָבַץ (qabats): To gather, to collect, to assemble. This term is used in contexts of bringing together individuals or items, often for a communal or divine purpose.

These Hebrew terms share a thematic connection with συλλέγω, emphasizing the act of gathering as a significant biblical motif, reflecting God's sovereign plan to bring His people together for His purposes.

Usage: The verb συλλέγω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of gathering or collecting, often in the context of bringing people or items together for a specific purpose.

Context: The Greek verb συλλέγω appears in the New Testament to convey the action of gathering or collecting. This term is often used in contexts where individuals or items are brought together for a particular reason or event. The root words σύν (syn) and λέγω (legō) emphasize the collective nature of the action, highlighting the bringing together of separate elements into a unified whole.

In the Berean Standard Bible, συλλέγω is used in passages that describe the gathering of people or resources. For example, in Matthew 13:30, the term is used in the Parable of the Weeds, where the reapers are instructed to "collect" the weeds to be burned, illustrating the final judgment where the righteous and the wicked are separated. This usage underscores the eschatological theme of gathering for divine purposes.

The act of gathering, as expressed by συλλέγω, often carries a connotation of intentionality and purpose. It is not merely a random collection but a deliberate assembly for a specific outcome, whether it be for judgment, teaching, or community building. This reflects the broader biblical theme of God gathering His people, as seen in both Old and New Testament narratives.
