In the New Testament, it is often used metaphorically to describe the spiritual edification or building up of the church and individual believers. It emphasizes growth, strengthening, and development in faith and character.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Greco-Roman world, construction and architecture were significant aspects of daily life, with buildings serving as places of worship, commerce, and community gathering. The metaphor of building was a powerful image for early Christians, who saw the church as a spiritual house being built by God. This imagery would have resonated with a culture familiar with the importance of strong foundations and well-constructed edifices.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 3619</b> <i>oikodomḗ</i> – properly, a building (edifice) serving as a home; (figuratively) <i>constructive</i> criticism and instruction that <i>builds a person up</i> to be the <i>suitable dwelling place of God</i>, i.e. where the Lord is "<i>at home</i>." <a href="/greek/3618.htm">See 3618</a> (<i>oikodemeō</i>).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/3624.htm">oikos</a> and the same as <a href="/greek/1430.htm">dóma</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>(the act of) building, a building<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>building (8), buildings (3), edification (5), edifying (1), upbuilding (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 3619: οἰκοδομή</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">οἰκοδομή</span></span>, <span class="greek2">οἰκοδομῆς</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">οἶκος</span>, and <span class="greek2">δέμω</span> to build), a later Greek word, condemned by Phryn., yet used by <span class="abbreviation">Aristotle</span>, <span class="abbreviation">Theophrastus</span>, ((but both these thought to be doubtful)), <span class="abbreviation">Diodorus</span> (1, 46), <span class="abbreviation">Philo</span> (vit.
