It often conveys the idea of something occurring before another event or being positioned in front of something else. In the New Testament, it is frequently used to indicate temporal priority, such as events that happen before others, or to express spatial relationships.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, prepositions like "πρό" were essential for expressing complex ideas of time and space. The concept of "before" was significant in both temporal and spatial contexts, influencing how events were understood in relation to one another. In the biblical context, "πρό" often underscores the preeminence or priority of divine actions or plans, reflecting a worldview where God's purposes are seen as preceding human history.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. preposition<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>before<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>above (2), ago (4), ahead (2), ahead* (2), before (30), front (2), just outside (1), prior (1), right (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 4253: πρό</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">πρό</span></span>, a preposition followed by the genitive (Latin<span class="latin">pro</span>) (from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down), the <span class="manuref">Sept.</span> chiefly for <span class="hebrew">לִפְנֵי</span>, <span class="accented">before</span>;
