Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb ἀποδέχομαι (apodechomai), which means "to accept" or "to receive favorably." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἀποδοχή, the concept of acceptance and approval can be related to several Hebrew terms, such as רָצוֹן (ratson, Strong's Hebrew 7522), which means "favor" or "acceptance," and קָבַל (qabal, Strong's Hebrew 6901), which means "to receive" or "to accept." These terms similarly convey the idea of being favorably received or approved, often in the context of offerings, prayers, or individuals being accepted by God or a community. Usage: The term ἀποδοχή is used in the New Testament to describe the concept of acceptance or approval, particularly in the context of teachings or individuals being received favorably by a community or group. Context: The Greek term ἀποδοχή appears in the New Testament to emphasize the importance of acceptance and approval within the early Christian communities. It is often associated with the reception of teachings, individuals, or practices that align with the faith and values of the community. In 1 Timothy 1:15, the Apostle Paul uses a related form of the word to highlight the trustworthy nature of the statement about Christ Jesus coming into the world to save sinners, indicating that this message is worthy of full acceptance. The concept of ἀποδοχή underscores the communal aspect of faith, where teachings and individuals are evaluated and embraced based on their alignment with the core tenets of Christianity. This acceptance is not merely passive but involves an active endorsement and integration into the life of the community.
