Transliteration: hupoleipo
Pronunciation: hoo-pol-AY-po
Phonetic Spelling: (hoop-ol-i'-po)
Definition: To leave behind, to remain, to be left
Meaning: I leave behind; pass: I am left surviving.

Word Origin: From the Greek words ὑπό (hupo, meaning "under" or "beneath") and λείπω (leipo, meaning "to leave" or "to forsake").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of leaving behind or remaining can be found in Hebrew words such as שָׁאַר (sha'ar, Strong's H7604), which means "to remain" or "to be left over."

Usage: The verb "hupoleipo" is used in the New Testament to convey the idea of leaving something behind or remaining. It often implies a remnant or something that persists after other parts have been removed or have departed. This term can be used in both literal and metaphorical contexts, such as leaving behind a legacy or remaining faithful amidst trials.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of leaving something behind was significant in terms of inheritance, legacy, and continuity. The idea of a remnant was also important in Jewish thought, where a faithful remnant often represented hope and continuity of God's promises despite widespread unfaithfulness or judgment.
