It conveys the idea of being fully clothed or enveloped in garments. This term emphasizes the completeness and thoroughness of being dressed, often with a sense of preparation or readiness.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Greco-Roman world, clothing was not only a necessity but also a symbol of status, identity, and role. The act of dressing oneself or being dressed by others could signify various social or religious functions. Clothing was often used metaphorically in Scripture to represent spiritual truths, such as righteousness, salvation, or readiness for service.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/greek/297.htm">amphoteroi</a> and hennumi (to enrobe, clothe)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to clothe<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>clothes (1), dressed (2).<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 294: ἀμφιάζω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀμφιάζω</span></span>; (from <span class="greek2">ἀμφί</span>, literally, to put around); <span class="accented">to put on, clothe</span>: in <a href="/interlinear/luke/12-28.htm">Luke 12:28</a> <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> <span class="greek2">ἀμφιάζει</span> for <span class="manuref">Rec.</span> <span class="greek2">ἀμφιέννυσι</span>.
