Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word φέρω (pherō), meaning "to bear" or "to carry."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence between Greek and Hebrew verbs, the concept of wearing or bearing in Hebrew can be related to several words, such as לָבַשׁ (labash, Strong's 3847), which means "to wear" or "to clothe," and נָשָׂא (nasa, Strong's 5375), which means "to lift," "to carry," or "to bear." These Hebrew terms capture similar ideas of wearing or bearing as expressed by φορέω in the Greek New Testament. Usage: In the New Testament, φορέω is used to describe the act of wearing garments or carrying something in a sustained manner. It appears in contexts that emphasize the ongoing nature of the action. Context: The Greek verb φορέω is used in the New Testament to convey the idea of wearing or bearing something consistently. It is distinct from the more general φέρω, which can refer to carrying or bearing in a broader sense. The usage of φορέω often implies a habitual or characteristic action, such as wearing clothing or bearing a particular trait.
