It is frequently used in contexts where understanding is granted or withheld, particularly in relation to parables or teachings of Jesus. Context: The Greek verb συνίημι appears in the New Testament primarily in the context of understanding spiritual truths or teachings. It is often used in the Gospels when Jesus speaks in parables, highlighting the distinction between those who are given the ability to understand and those who are not. For example, in Matthew 13:13, Jesus explains, "This is why I speak to them in parables: 'Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.'" Here, συνίημι underscores the deeper spiritual insight that is required to grasp the truths of the Kingdom of Heaven.
