Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: From the preposition σύν (syn, meaning "with" or "together") and the verb παραγίνομαι (paraginomai, meaning "to come" or "to arrive").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συμπαραγίνομαι, the concept of accompanying or being present with others can be seen in various Hebrew terms related to companionship and presence, such as חָבַר (chabar, Strong's Hebrew 2266), meaning "to join" or "to be united," and עִמָּד (imad, Strong's Hebrew 5973), meaning "with" or "together with." These terms similarly convey the idea of togetherness and presence within a community or group.

Usage: This verb is used in the New Testament to describe the act of coming together or being present with others, often in a supportive or accompanying role.

Context: The Greek verb συμπαραγίνομαι (symparaginomai) appears in the New Testament to convey the idea of accompanying or being present with someone. It is a compound word that combines the notion of being "with" (σύν) and "coming" or "arriving" (παραγίνομαι). This term is used to describe situations where individuals come together, often in a supportive or communal context.

In the Berean Standard Bible, this term is found in Acts 9:39: "So Peter got up and went with them. When he arrived, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood around him, weeping and showing him the tunics and other garments that Dorcas had made while she was still with them." Here, the word is used to describe Peter's action of accompanying those who came to fetch him, highlighting his presence and participation in the community's mourning and remembrance of Dorcas.

The use of συμπαραγίνομαι underscores the importance of presence and companionship in the early Christian community. It reflects the communal nature of the faith, where believers are encouraged to support and be present with one another in times of need, joy, or sorrow. This term emphasizes the relational aspect of the Christian life, where being physically present with others is a form of ministry and service.
