Berean Strong's Lexicon
hupotithémi: To lay down, to suggest, to propose, to set before

Original Word: ὑποτίθημι
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: hupotithémi
Pronunciation: hoo-pot-ith'-ay-mee
Phonetic Spelling: (hoop-ot-ith'-ay-mee)
Definition: To lay down, to suggest, to propose, to set before
Meaning: I put under, lay down, suggest to, put in mind.

Word Origin: From the Greek words ὑπό (hypo, meaning "under") and τίθημι (tithémi, meaning "to place" or "to set").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ὑποτίθημι, the concept of laying down or setting before can be related to Hebrew words like שׂוּם (sum, Strong's H7760), which means "to set" or "to place."

Usage: The verb ὑποτίθημι primarily means to lay something down or to place it under. In a figurative sense, it can mean to suggest or propose an idea or plan. It is used in contexts where something is set before others for consideration or instruction.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, the act of laying something down or setting it before others was often associated with teaching or proposing a plan. This could involve laying down a physical object, such as a foundation stone, or presenting an idea or teaching for consideration. The concept of laying down teachings or instructions was significant in both educational and philosophical contexts, where teachers would present their doctrines to students.
