Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for συνεργέω, the concept of working together or cooperation can be seen in various Hebrew terms related to partnership and collaboration, such as עָבַד (avad, "to work, serve") and חָבַר (chabar, "to join, unite"). These terms reflect similar themes of unity and collective effort found in the Old Testament. Usage: The verb συνεργέω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of working together or cooperating, often in the context of divine and human collaboration or the cooperation among believers. Context: The Greek verb συνεργέω appears in the New Testament to convey the concept of cooperation or joint effort. It is often used to describe the synergy between God and believers, as well as among believers themselves. This term emphasizes the importance of collaboration in the fulfillment of God's purposes. In Romans 8:28, the Apostle Paul writes, "And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose." Here, συνεργέω is used to express the idea that God orchestrates all circumstances to work together for the benefit of those who are devoted to Him. This passage highlights the divine initiative and sovereignty in the lives of believers, assuring them that their experiences, whether positive or negative, are part of a greater divine plan. Another significant usage is found in 1 Corinthians 16:16, where Paul urges the Corinthian church to "be subject to such as these, and to every fellow worker and laborer." The term underscores the importance of cooperation and mutual support within the Christian community, as believers are called to work together in service and ministry. The concept of συνεργέω is foundational to understanding the relational and communal aspects of the Christian faith. It reflects the biblical principle that believers are not isolated individuals but are part of a larger body, working in harmony with one another and with God to accomplish His will on earth.
