Lexicon agorazó: To buy, purchase, redeem Original Word: ἀγοράζω Strong's Exhaustive Concordance buy, redeem. From agora; properly, to go to market, i.e. (by implication) to purchase; specially, to redeem -- buy, redeem. see GREEK agora HELPS Word-studies 59 agorázō (from 58 /agorá, "the ancient marketplace, town-center") – properly, to make purchases in the marketplace ("agora"), i.e. as ownership transfers from seller to buyer. 59 /agorázō ("acquire by purchasing") stresses transfer – i.e. where something becomes another's belonging (possession). In salvation-contexts, 59 (agorázō) is not redeeming ("buying back"), but rather focuses on how the believer now belongs to the Lord as His unique possession (J. Thayer). Indeed, Christ purchases all the privileges and responsibilities that go with belonging to Him (being in Christ). [See also the intensified, compound (1805 /eksagorázō).] NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom agora Definition to buy in the marketplace, purchase NASB Translation bought (9), buy (11), buying (3), buys (2), make the purchase (1), purchased (3), spend (1). Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 59: ἀγοράζωἀγοράζω; (imperfect ἠγόραζον; future ἀγοράσω); 1 aorist ἠγόρασα; passive, perfect participle ἠγορασμένος; 1 aorist ἠγοράσθην; (ἀγορά); 1. to frequent the marketplace. 2. to buy (properly, in the marketplace) (Aristophanes, Xenophon, others); used a. literally: absolutely, Matthew 21:12; Mark 11:15; Luke 19:45 (not G T Tr WH); τί, Matthew 13:44, 46; Matthew 14:15 and parallel passage, John 4:8; John 6:5; with παρά and the genitive of the person from whom, Revelation 3:18 (the Sept., Polybius); ἐκ and the genitive of price, Matthew 27:7; simple genitive of price, Mark 6:37. b. figuratively: Christ is said to have purchased his disciples i. e. made them, as it were, his private property, 1 Corinthians 6:20 (this is commonly understood of God; but cf. John 17:9, 10); 1 Corinthians 7:23 (with the genitive of price added; see τιμή, 1); 2 Peter 2:1. He is also said to have bought them for God ἐν τῷ αἵματι αὐτοῦ, by shedding his blood, Revelation 5:9; they, too, are spoken of as purchased ἀπό τῆς γῆς, Revelation 14:3, and ἀπό τῶν ἀνθρώπων, Revelation 14:4, so that they are withdrawn from the earth (and its miseries) and from (wicked) men. But ἀγοράζω does not mean redeem (ἐξαγοράζω) — as is commonly said. (Compare: ἐξαγοράζω.) Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek noun ἀγορά (agorá), meaning "marketplace" or "public square."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of buying or redeeming in the Hebrew Bible is often represented by the verb קָנָה (qanah, Strong's H7069), which means to acquire, purchase, or possess. Another related term is גָּאַל (ga'al, Strong's H1350), which specifically refers to the act of redemption, often in the context of a kinsman-redeemer. These Hebrew terms parallel the theological themes found in the New Testament usage of ἀγοράζω, particularly in the context of redemption and divine ownership. Usage: The verb ἀγοράζω appears in various contexts in the New Testament, often referring to the act of purchasing goods or services. It is also used metaphorically to describe the act of redemption or being bought with a price, particularly in relation to spiritual salvation. Context: The Greek verb ἀγοράζω is frequently encountered in the New Testament, reflecting both everyday commercial transactions and profound theological truths. In its literal sense, ἀγοράζω is used to describe the act of buying or purchasing items, as seen in passages like Matthew 13:44, where a man sells all he has to buy a field containing hidden treasure. This illustrates the value and sacrifice associated with obtaining the kingdom of heaven.
