Lexicon apekdechomai: To eagerly await, to expect fully Original Word: ἀπεκδέχομαι Strong's Exhaustive Concordance to await eagerlyFrom apo and ekdechomai; to expect fully -- look (wait) foreign see GREEK apo see GREEK ekdechomai HELPS Word-studies 553 apekdéxomai (from 575 /apó, "away from," 1209 /déxomai, "welcome" and 1557 /ekdíkēsis, "out of") – a triple compound (properly) meaning "welcome from and out of"; waiting that decisively "puts away" all that should remain behind. The prefix (apo) intensifies the root (dexomai) to emphasize the idea of separation. 553 (apekdéxomai) therefore is used of looking completely away from this world – and to the upcoming redemption of our body.

Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from ἀπό (apo, meaning "from") and ἐκδέχομαι (ekdechomai, meaning "to expect" or "to await").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἀπεκδέχομαι, the concept of waiting with eager expectation can be found in Hebrew terms such as קָוָה (qavah, Strong's H6960), which means "to wait for" or "to hope," and יָחַל (yachal, Strong's H3176), meaning "to wait" or "to expect." These terms similarly convey a sense of hopeful anticipation in the Hebrew Scriptures. Usage: The verb ἀπεκδέχομαι is used in the New Testament to describe a sense of eager anticipation or waiting for something with great expectation. It often conveys a sense of hope and longing for a future event or fulfillment of a promise. Context: The Greek verb ἀπεκδέχομαι appears in several New Testament passages, each highlighting the theme of eager anticipation for divine fulfillment. This term is used to express the Christian's hopeful expectation of future events, particularly those related to salvation and the return of Christ.
