These terms similarly convey the idea of providing aid and bearing burdens within the community of faith. Usage: The term συναντιλαμβάνομαι is used in the New Testament to describe the act of coming to someone's aid, particularly in the context of sharing a burden or providing assistance. It conveys a sense of partnership and cooperation in addressing a need or challenge. Context: The Greek verb συναντιλαμβάνομαι appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize mutual support and assistance. It is a compound word that vividly illustrates the concept of working together to overcome difficulties. The term is used in Luke 10:40, where Martha appeals to Jesus to instruct her sister Mary to help her with the preparations. The passage reads: "But Martha was distracted by all the preparations to be made. She came to Jesus and said, 'Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her to help me!'" (BSB). Here, the word underscores the idea of sharing the workload and providing practical support.
