Usage: The term "exupnos" is used to describe a state of being awake or roused from sleep. It conveys the idea of being alert and conscious, often in a metaphorical sense, to spiritual realities or truths. In the New Testament, it is used to encourage believers to be spiritually vigilant and aware of the times and seasons. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, sleep was often associated with ignorance or lack of awareness, while wakefulness was linked to knowledge and enlightenment. The metaphor of sleep and wakefulness was commonly used in philosophical and religious texts to describe moral and spiritual states. In the Jewish tradition, being spiritually awake was associated with readiness for God's intervention and the coming of the Messiah.
