Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 581: ἀπογίνομαιἀπογίνομαι: (2 aorist ἀπεγενομην); 1. to be removed from, depart. 2. to die (often so in Greek writings from Herodotus down); hence, tropically, ἀπογίνεσθαι τίνι, to die to anything: ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ἀπογενόμενοι i. e. become utterly alienated from our sins, 1 Peter 2:24 (Winers Grammar, § 52, 4, 1 d.; Buttmann, 178 (155)). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἀπογίνομαι, similar concepts of separation or departure can be found in Hebrew words such as יָצָא (yatsa, Strong's 3318), meaning "to go out" or "to depart," and נָסַע (nasa, Strong's 5265), meaning "to journey" or "to remove." These terms capture the essence of movement away from a particular place or state, akin to the Greek ἀπογίνομαι. Usage: The word ἀπογίνομαι is not frequently used in the New Testament. It is primarily found in contexts where physical or metaphorical separation is described. Context: The Greek verb ἀπογίνομαι is a compound word that combines the idea of separation (ἀπό) with the concept of becoming or being (γίνομαι). In the New Testament, this term is used to convey the notion of being absent or removed from a particular place or state. It can be applied both in a literal sense, such as physical absence, and in a metaphorical sense, such as a change in condition or status. |
