Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 4880: συναποθνῄσκω συναποθνῄσκω: 2 aorist συναπεθανον; to die together; with the dative of the person to die with one (Sir. 19:10, and often in Greek authors from Herodotus down): Mark 14:31; namely, ὑμᾶς ἐμοί, that ye may die together with me, i. e. that my love to you may not leave me even were I appointed to die, 2 Corinthians 7:3; namely, τῷ Χριστο (cf. Winer's Grammar, 143 (136)), to meet death as Christ did for the cause of God, 2 Timothy 2:11. Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From the Greek words σύν (syn, meaning "with" or "together") and ἀποθνῄσκω (apothnēskō, meaning "to die"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συναποθνῄσκω, the concept of dying with or for someone can be related to Hebrew terms that express death or sacrifice, such as מוּת (muth, Strong's Hebrew 4191), which means "to die." However, the specific theological nuance of dying with Christ is unique to the New Testament Greek context. Usage: This verb is used in the New Testament to describe the act of dying together with someone else, often in a metaphorical or spiritual sense, indicating a shared experience or union in death. Context: The term συναποθνῄσκω appears in the New Testament to convey the concept of dying together with someone, often in a spiritual or symbolic context. This word is used to express the profound unity and identification with Christ in His death. Theologically, it underscores the believer's participation in the death of Christ, which is a central theme in Pauline theology. This participation signifies a break from the power of sin and a transition into a new life in Christ. In Romans 6:8, Paul writes, "Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him." Here, συναποθνῄσκω is used to illustrate the believer's union with Christ in His death, which assures them of sharing in His resurrection. This concept is foundational for understanding the transformative power of the Gospel, where believers are called to die to their old selves and live anew in Christ. The use of συναποθνῄσκω emphasizes the intimate and personal nature of the believer's relationship with Christ. It is not merely a historical or doctrinal fact but a lived experience that affects the believer's daily life and conduct. This shared death with Christ is both a past event and an ongoing reality, as believers continually put to death the deeds of the body and live by the Spirit.
