It can imply a physical movement or a metaphorical passage, such as the passing of time or events.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of leading or bringing something alongside was common in various contexts, from military maneuvers to everyday travel. The term "paragó" would have been understood in both literal and figurative senses, reflecting the movement of people, goods, or time. In the New Testament, this term often carries a deeper spiritual or metaphorical meaning, reflecting the transient nature of life and the unfolding of God's plan.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/3844.htm">para</a> and <a href="/greek/71.htm">agó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to lead by, to pass by or away<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>going along (1), passed (2), passer-by (1), passing (1), passing away (3), went (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 3855: παράγω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">παράγω</span></span>; imperfect <span class="greek2">παρῆγον</span> (<a href="/interlinear/john/8-59.htm">John 8:59</a> <span class="manuref">Rec.</span>); present passive 3 person singular <span class="greek2">παράγεται</span>; from (<span class="abbreviation">Archilochus</span> (<DATE_RANGE:700 B.C.>), <span class="abbreviation">Theognis</span>), <span class="abbreviation">Pindar</span> and <span class="abbreviation">Herodotus</span> down; the <span class="manuref">Sept.</span> several times for <span class="hebrew">עָבַר</span> in Kal and Hiphil; <p><span class="textheading">1.</span> transitive, ((cf. <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">παρά</span></span>, IV.)); <p><span class="emphasized">a.</span> <span class="accented">to lead past, lead by</span>. <p><span class="emphasized">b.</span> <span class="accented">to lead aside, mislead; to lead away</span>. <p><span class="emphasized">c.</span> <span class="accented">to lead to; to lead forth, bring forward</span>. <p><span class="textheading">2.</span> intransitive (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">ἄγω</span></span>, 4); <p><span class="emphasized">a.</span> <span class="accented">to pass by, go past</span>: <a href="/interlinear/matthew/20-30.htm">Matthew 20:30</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/2-14.htm">Mark 2:14</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/15-21.htm">Mark 15:21</a>; (<a href="/interlinear/luke/18-39.htm">Luke 18:39</a> <span class="manuref">L</span> marginal reading); followed by <span class="greek2">παρά</span> with an accusative of place, <a href="/interlinear/mark/1-16.htm">Mark 1:16</a> <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> (by <span class="greek2">κατά</span> with the accusative of place, 3Macc. 6:16; <span class="greek2">θεωροῦντες</span> <span class="greek2">παραγουσαν</span> <span class="greek2">τήν</span> <span class="greek2">δύναμιν</span>, <span class="abbreviation">Polybius</span> 5, 18, 4). <p><span class="emphasized">b.</span> <span class="accented">to depart, go away</span>: <a href="/interlinear/john/8-59.htm">John 8:59</a> <span class="manuref">Rec.</span>; <BIBLE/CHAPTER_VERSE:John 9:1>; <span class="greek2">ἐκεῖθεν</span>, <a href="/interlinear/matthew/9-9.htm">Matthew 9:9, 27</a>.
