Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From μετά (meta, meaning "after" or "beyond") and βαίνω (bainō, meaning "to go" or "to walk"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for μεταβαίνω, similar concepts of movement and transition can be found in Hebrew verbs such as עָבַר (abar, Strong's 5674), meaning "to pass over" or "to cross," and נָסַע (nasa, Strong's 5265), meaning "to journey" or "to travel." These Hebrew terms capture the essence of movement and transition found in μεταβαίνω. Usage: The verb μεταβαίνω is used in the New Testament to describe physical movement from one location to another, as well as metaphorical transitions or changes in state or condition. Context: The Greek verb μεταβαίνω appears in several contexts within the New Testament, primarily in the Gospels and Acts. It is often used to describe Jesus or His disciples moving from one place to another during His ministry. For example, in John 5:24 (BSB), Jesus speaks of a spiritual transition: "Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come under judgment. Indeed, he has crossed over from death to life." Here, μεταβαίνω is used metaphorically to describe the transition from spiritual death to eternal life through faith in Christ. In a more literal sense, μεταβαίνω is used in Matthew 8:18 (BSB), where Jesus gives orders to cross to the other side of the lake: "When Jesus saw a large crowd around Him, He gave orders to cross to the other side of the sea." This illustrates the physical movement from one geographical location to another. The term also appears in Acts 18:7 (BSB), describing Paul's movement from the synagogue to the house of Titius Justus: "So Paul left the synagogue and went next door to the house of Titius Justus, a worshiper of God." This usage highlights a change in location as part of Paul's missionary activities. Overall, μεταβαίνω conveys both literal and figurative transitions, emphasizing movement, change, and the crossing of boundaries, whether physical or spiritual.
