Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 5265: ὑποδέω ὑποδέω: 1 aorist ὑπέδησά; 1 aorist middle ὑπεδησαμην; perfect passive or middle participle ὑποδεδημενος; from Herodotus down (in Homer with tmesis); to trader-bind; mostly in the middle to bind under oneself, bind on; (participle shod); with an accusative of the thing: σανδάλια, Mark 6:9; Acts 12:8 (ὑποδήματα, Xenophon, mem. 1, 6, 6; Plato, Gorgias, p. 490 e.); with an accusative of the member of the body: τούς πόδας with ἐν ἑτοιμασία added, with readiness (see ἑτοιμασία, 2), Ephesians 6:15 (πόδα σανδάλω, σανδαλιοις, Lucian, quom. hist. sit conscrib. 22; Aelian v. h. 1, 18). (Cf. Buttmann, § 135, 2.) Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From the preposition ὑπό (hypo), meaning "under," and δέω (deō), meaning "to bind" or "to tie." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of binding or fastening sandals in the Hebrew Bible can be related to several Hebrew words, though there is no direct equivalent to ὑποδέω. However, the action of putting on sandals is often associated with the Hebrew verb נָעַל (na'al), meaning "to put on shoes" or "to lock." This verb appears in contexts such as Exodus 12:11, where the Israelites are instructed to eat the Passover meal with their sandals on, ready for their journey out of Egypt. Usage: The verb ὑποδέω is used in the context of putting on or fastening footwear, specifically sandals, which were common in the ancient Near Eastern and Greco-Roman world. Context: The Greek verb ὑποδέω appears in the New Testament in contexts that describe the act of putting on or fastening sandals. This action was a daily routine in the ancient world, reflecting both practical and symbolic aspects of life. Sandals were essential for protection and mobility, and the act of fastening them could symbolize readiness or preparation for a journey or task. In the Berean Standard Bible, ὑποδέω is used in passages that highlight the importance of being prepared and equipped. For example, in Acts 12:8, the angel instructs Peter, "Put on your clothes and sandals," emphasizing the urgency and readiness required for his miraculous escape from prison. This usage underscores the practical necessity of footwear in daily life and the broader spiritual metaphor of being prepared for God's calling. The act of binding on sandals can also be seen as a metaphor for readiness in the Christian life, symbolizing the preparedness to follow Christ and engage in His mission. The imagery of footwear in the Bible often conveys themes of journey, service, and the proclamation of the gospel, as seen in Ephesians 6:15, where believers are encouraged to have their "feet fitted with the readiness of the gospel of peace."
