It conveys a sense of separation or rejection, often implying a deliberate action of discarding or letting go. This term can be used both in a literal sense, such as throwing off physical objects, and in a metaphorical sense, such as losing or rejecting non-material things.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of casting off or throwing away was often associated with the disposal of unwanted items or the rejection of burdens. This action could be seen in various contexts, from everyday life to philosophical discussions about the rejection of vices or unnecessary burdens. The use of ἀποβάλλω in the New Testament reflects this cultural understanding, emphasizing the importance of letting go of what hinders one's spiritual journey.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/575.htm">apo</a> and <a href="/greek/906.htm">balló</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to throw off<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>throw away (1), throwing aside (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 577: ἀποβάλλω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀποβάλλω</span></span>: 2 aorist <span class="greek2">ἀπέβαλον</span>; (from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down); <span class="accented">to throw off, cast away</span>: a garment, <a href="/interlinear/mark/10-50.htm">Mark 10:50</a>.
