Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From σύν (syn, "with, together") and καθίζω (kathízō, "to sit, to seat") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συγκαθίζω, the concept of sitting together or being seated in a position of honor can be related to Hebrew terms such as יָשַׁב (yashab, Strong's 3427), which means "to sit, dwell," and often conveys the idea of abiding or remaining in a place, sometimes in a communal or honorable context. Usage: The verb συγκαθίζω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of sitting down together with others, often implying fellowship or shared experience. Context: The Greek verb συγκαθίζω appears in the New Testament to convey the idea of sitting together, often in a context that implies fellowship, unity, or shared purpose. This term is derived from the combination of σύν, meaning "with" or "together," and καθίζω, meaning "to sit" or "to seat." The act of sitting together in the biblical context often symbolizes agreement, companionship, or participation in a common activity or purpose. In the Berean Standard Bible, συγκαθίζω is notably used in Ephesians 2:6: "And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus." Here, the term is used metaphorically to describe the spiritual reality of believers being united with Christ, sharing in His exalted position and the blessings of the heavenly realm. This usage underscores the theological concept of believers' union with Christ, emphasizing both present spiritual realities and future hope. The act of sitting together, as expressed by συγκαθίζω, can also reflect the early Christian community's emphasis on unity and shared life in Christ. It highlights the communal aspect of the faith, where believers are not isolated but are part of a larger body, seated together with Christ in a position of honor and fellowship.
