It conveys the action of arranging or preparing a surface by spreading materials over it. In the New Testament, it is often used in contexts where people spread garments or branches on the road, particularly in the accounts of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient times, spreading garments or branches was a customary act of honor and respect, often associated with welcoming a dignitary or king. This practice symbolized submission and reverence, acknowledging the authority and significance of the person being honored. In the Jewish context, such actions were deeply rooted in cultural expressions of hospitality and reverence.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from a prim. root stor-<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to spread<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>furnished (2), make...bed (1), spread (2), spreading (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 4766: στρωννύω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">στρωννύω</span></span>, or <span class="greek2">στρώννυμι</span>: imperfect 3 person plural <span class="greek2">ἐστρώννυον</span> (cf. <span class="abbreviation">Buttmann</span>, 45 (39)); 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ἐστρωσα</span>; perfect passive participle <span class="greek2">ἐστρωμενος</span>; (by metathesis from <span class="greek2">στόρνυμι</span>, <span class="greek2">στορέννυμι</span>, and this from <span class="greek2">ΣΤΟΡΑΩ</span>; (cf.
