STRONGS NT 393: ἀνατέλλω

ἀνατέλλω; 1 aorist ἀνετειλα; perfect ἀνατεταλκα;

a. transitive, to cause to rise: τόν ἥλιον, Matthew 5:45 (of the earth bringing forth plants, Genesis 3:18; of a river producing something, Homer, Iliad 5, 777).

b. intransitive, to rise, arise: light, Matthew 4:16 (Isaiah 58:10); the sun, Matthew 13:6; Mark 4:6; Mark 16:2; James 1:11; the clouds, Luke 12:54; φωσφόρος, 2 Peter 1:19. tropically, to rise from, be descended from, Hebrews 7:14. The earlier Greeks commonly used ἀνατέλλειν of the sun and moon, and ἐπιτέλλειν of the stars; but Aelian, Pausanias, Stobaeus, and other later writings neglect this distinction; see Lob. ad Phryn., p. 124f. (Compare: ἐξανατέλλω.)

Word Origin: From ἀνά (ana, meaning "up" or "again") and τέλλω (tellō, meaning "to cause to arise" or "to make to rise").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • H2224 זָרַח (zarach): To rise, shine, used in contexts such as the rising of the sun.
• H6779 צָמַח (tsamach): To sprout, spring up, grow, often used in agricultural contexts.

These Hebrew terms share similar themes with ἀνατέλλω, emphasizing the concepts of rising and growth as acts of divine creation and sustenance.

Usage: The term ἀνατέλλω is used in the New Testament to describe natural phenomena such as the rising of the sun and the growth of plants. It conveys the idea of something coming into view or beginning to manifest.

Context: The Greek verb ἀνατέλλω appears in several New Testament passages, illustrating both literal and metaphorical uses. In Matthew 5:45, Jesus uses the term to describe God's impartiality: "He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." Here, ἀνατέλλω emphasizes the natural order established by God, reflecting His providence and grace.

In Mark 4:27, the term is used in the Parable of the Growing Seed: "Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how." The use of ἀνατέλλω in this context highlights the mysterious and autonomous nature of growth, symbolizing the Kingdom of God and its inevitable expansion.

The verb also appears in Hebrews 7:14, where it is used metaphorically to describe the emergence of Jesus from the tribe of Judah: "For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, a tribe as to which Moses said nothing about priests." Here, ἀνατέλλω signifies the rise of a new order, with Jesus as the eternal High Priest.

Overall, ἀνατέλλω conveys themes of divine action, natural processes, and the unfolding of God's plan. It underscores the idea of new beginnings and the fulfillment of divine promises.
