Strong's Lexicon hupostrephó: To return, to turn back Original Word: ὑποστρέφω Word Origin: From the preposition ὑπό (hupo, meaning "under") and the verb στρέφω (strephó, meaning "to turn"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is שׁוּב (shub, Strong's H7725), which also means "to return" or "to turn back." Usage: The verb ὑποστρέφω primarily means "to return" or "to turn back." It is used in the New Testament to describe physical returning to a place, as well as metaphorical or spiritual turning back. This term often conveys a sense of going back to a previous state or location, and it can imply repentance or a change of heart when used in a spiritual context. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, travel was common, and the concept of returning to one's home or place of origin was a familiar experience. The use of ὑποστρέφω in the New Testament often reflects the itinerant nature of Jesus' ministry and the journeys of His disciples. The idea of returning also held significant spiritual connotations within Jewish thought, where returning to God was synonymous with repentance and restoration.
