It conveys the idea of recording names or details in a formal manner. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the act of registering individuals for taxation or census purposes.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Roman world, censuses were conducted for taxation and administrative purposes. These censuses required individuals to return to their ancestral homes to be registered. This practice was a significant aspect of Roman governance, ensuring accurate records for tax collection and military conscription. The act of registration was a formal and often mandatory process, reflecting the authority and organizational structure of the Roman Empire.<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/1125.htm">graphó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to copy, enroll<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>census be taken (1), enrolled (1), register (1), register for the census (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 583: ἀπογράφω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀπογράφω</span></span>: middle (present infinitive <span class="greek2">ἀπογράφεσθαι</span>);
