1295. diasózó
Strong's Lexicon
diasózó: To save, to preserve, to bring safely through

Original Word: διασῴζω
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: diasózó
Pronunciation: dee-ah-SO-zo
Phonetic Spelling: (dee-as-odze'-o)
Definition: To save, to preserve, to bring safely through
Meaning: I save (rescue) through (some danger), bring safely to, escaped to.

Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "διά" (dia, meaning "through" or "across") and the verb "σῴζω" (sózó, meaning "to save" or "to preserve").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for διασῴζω, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words like יָשַׁע (yasha, Strong's H3467), meaning "to save" or "to deliver," and נָצַל (natsal, Strong's H5337), meaning "to rescue" or "to deliver."

Usage: The verb διασῴζω (diasózó) is used in the New Testament to convey the idea of saving or preserving someone or something through a perilous situation. It often implies a complete and thorough rescue or preservation, emphasizing the successful outcome of being brought safely through danger or difficulty.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of salvation or preservation was often associated with physical safety, health, and deliverance from danger. The use of διασῴζω in the New Testament reflects this understanding but extends it to include spiritual salvation and divine intervention. The term would have resonated with early Christians who faced persecution and hardship, offering them assurance of God's protective power.
