Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: From σύν (syn, "together") and τελέω (teleō, "to complete, to finish")

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • כָּלָה (kalah, Strong's Hebrew 3615): To complete, to finish, to bring to an end.
• תָּם (tam, Strong's Hebrew 8552): To be complete, finished, or perfect.
• גָּמַר (gamar, Strong's Hebrew 1584): To complete, to finish, to bring to an end.

These Hebrew terms, like συντελέω, convey the idea of completion and fulfillment, often in the context of divine action or purpose. They are used throughout the Old Testament to describe the completion of God's work, whether in creation, judgment, or redemption.

Usage: The verb συντελέω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of completing or finishing something, often with a sense of fulfillment or bringing to a conclusion. It can refer to the completion of a task, the fulfillment of a prophecy, or the end of a period of time.

Context: The Greek verb συντελέω appears in several contexts within the New Testament, each emphasizing the notion of completion or fulfillment. It is often used in eschatological contexts, where it denotes the culmination of divine plans or the fulfillment of prophetic events. For example, in the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus uses the term to describe the end of the age: "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come" (Matthew 24:14, BSB). Here, συντελέω underscores the completion of the gospel mission as a precursor to the eschaton.

In the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, συντελέω is used to translate several Hebrew terms that convey the idea of finishing or completing, often in the context of divine actions or decrees. This usage highlights the continuity between the Old and New Testament themes of God's sovereign plan reaching its intended conclusion.

Theologically, συντελέω can be understood as part of the broader biblical narrative of God's redemptive work, which is brought to completion through Christ. It reflects the assurance that God's purposes will be fully realized, both in individual lives and in the cosmos.
