Strong's Lexicon hupokató: Underneath, beneath, below Original Word: ὑποκάτω Part of Speech: Adverb Transliteration: hupokató Pronunciation: hoo-pok-at-O Phonetic Spelling: (hoop-ok-at'-o) Definition: Underneath, beneath, below Meaning: underneath, below, under. Word Origin: From the combination of ὑπό (hypo, meaning "under") and κάτω (kato, meaning "down" or "below"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is תַּחַת (tachath), which also means "under" or "beneath." Usage: The Greek preposition ὑποκάτω (hupokató) is used to denote a position that is physically or metaphorically beneath or under something else. It often conveys a sense of subordination or being subject to another entity or force. In the New Testament, it is used to describe physical locations as well as metaphorical states of being under authority or dominion. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of being "under" something often implied a hierarchical structure, whether in terms of social status, authority, or physical space. The use of ὑποκάτω in the New Testament reflects this cultural understanding, emphasizing the order and structure within creation and society. The term would have resonated with early Christian audiences familiar with the Roman Empire's strict social hierarchies and the Jewish understanding of divine order.
