Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 4283: προευαγγελίζομαι προευαγγελίζομαι: 1 aorist 3 person singular προευηγγελίσατο; to announce or promise glad tidings beforehand (viz. before the event by which the promise is made good): Galatians 3:8. (Philo de opif. mund. § 9; mutat. nom. § 29; Byzantine writings.) Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From the prefix "προ-" (pro-, meaning "before" or "in advance") and "ευαγγελίζομαι" (euangelízomai, meaning "to proclaim good news" or "to evangelize"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for προευαγγελίζομαι, the concept of announcing good news or proclaiming a message can be related to Hebrew terms such as בָּשַׂר (basar, Strong's Hebrew 1319), which means "to bring good news" or "to proclaim." This term is used in the Old Testament to describe the announcement of good tidings, often in the context of God's deliverance or salvation. Usage: This verb is used in the context of announcing or proclaiming the good news of the gospel prior to its full realization or fulfillment. It implies a foretelling or pre-announcement of the gospel message. Context: The term προευαγγελίζομαι is a compound verb found in the New Testament, specifically in Galatians 3:8. It is used to describe the action of God proclaiming the gospel in advance to Abraham. The context of this usage highlights the continuity of God's redemptive plan throughout history, emphasizing that the gospel message was not a new concept introduced in the New Testament but was foreshadowed and promised in the Old Testament. In Galatians 3:8, the Apostle Paul writes, "The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: 'All nations will be blessed through you.'" (BSB). Here, προευαγγελίζομαι underscores the prophetic nature of the promise given to Abraham, which anticipated the universal scope of the gospel and the inclusion of the Gentiles in God's salvific plan. This pre-announcement of the gospel to Abraham serves as a testament to the faithfulness of God in fulfilling His promises and the unfolding of His divine plan through history. It also illustrates the unity of the biblical narrative, where the Old Testament promises find their fulfillment in the New Testament revelation of Jesus Christ.
