Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "peri" (around) and the verb "agó" (to lead or bring). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "periagó," the concept of wandering or going around can be seen in Hebrew words like "סָבַב" (sabab), which means to go around or surround. Usage: The verb "periagó" is used in the New Testament to describe the action of going around or leading around. It often conveys the idea of moving from place to place, either physically or metaphorically. This term can imply a sense of wandering or traveling without a fixed destination. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, travel was a common part of life for traders, soldiers, and messengers. The concept of "going around" or "leading around" would have been familiar to early Christians, many of whom were itinerant preachers or missionaries. The use of "periagó" in the New Testament reflects the missionary journeys and the spread of the Gospel message across different regions.
