Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συνδοξάζω, the concept of glorification and sharing in glory can be related to Hebrew terms such as כָּבוֹד (kabod, Strong's Hebrew 3519), which denotes glory, honor, and splendor. The idea of sharing in divine glory is a theme that resonates throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, particularly in the context of God's covenant relationship with His people. Usage: The term συνδοξάζω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of sharing in or participating in glory, particularly in the context of believers sharing in the glory of Christ. Context: The Greek verb συνδοξάζω appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize the communal aspect of glorification, particularly in relation to the believer's union with Christ. This term is found in Romans 8:17, where the Apostle Paul writes about the future glory that believers will share with Christ. The passage reads: "And if we are children, then we are heirs: heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with Him, so that we may also be glorified with Him" (Romans 8:17, BSB). Here, συνδοξάζω underscores the eschatological hope that believers, as co-heirs with Christ, will partake in His glory, contingent upon their willingness to share in His sufferings. |
