In a figurative sense, it can mean to suggest or propose an idea or plan. It is used in contexts where something is set before others for consideration or instruction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, the act of laying something down or setting it before others was often associated with teaching or proposing a plan. This could involve laying down a physical object, such as a foundation stone, or presenting an idea or teaching for consideration. The concept of laying down teachings or instructions was significant in both educational and philosophical contexts, where teachers would present their doctrines to students.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>5294</b> <i>hypotíthēmi</i> (from <a href="/greek/5259.htm">5259</a> <i>/hypó</i>, "under" and <a href="/greek/5087.htm">5087</a> <i>/títhēmi</i>, "place, set") – properly, place under, like sketching over an underlying pattern to make an outline ("paradigm"); (figuratively) leaving a positive <i>pattern</i> (<i>model</i>) for others to follow in the life of faith (<i>LS</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/5259.htm">hupo</a> and <a href="/greek/5087.htm">tithémi</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to place under, lay down, mid. to suggest<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>pointing (1), risked (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 5294: ὑποτίθημι</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ὑποτίθημι</span></span>: 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ὑπέθηκα</span>; present middle participle <span class="greek2">ὑποτιθέμενος</span>; from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down; <span class="accented">to place under</span> (cf. <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">ὑπό</span></span>, III. 1): <span class="greek2">τί</span>, <a href="/interlinear/romans/16-4.htm">Romans 16:4</a> (on which see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">τράχηλος</span></span>).
