Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ὑπολαμβάνω, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew verbs that convey taking up, assuming, or responding, such as לָקַח (laqach, Strong's Hebrew 3947, meaning "to take") and עָנָה (anah, Strong's Hebrew 6030, meaning "to answer" or "to respond"). These Hebrew terms reflect similar actions of receiving, assuming, or replying, akin to the Greek ὑπολαμβάνω. Usage: In the New Testament, ὑπολαμβάνω is used in various contexts, often implying an assumption or a response to a situation or statement. It can denote taking something up in thought or speech, or responding to a question or situation. Context: The Greek verb ὑπολαμβάνω appears in several New Testament passages, each illustrating a nuanced aspect of its meaning. In Luke 10:30, Jesus uses the term in the Parable of the Good Samaritan: "Jesus took up this question and said: 'A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he fell into the hands of robbers...'" (BSB). Here, ὑπολαμβάνω is translated as "took up," indicating Jesus' response to a question by telling a parable.
