In the New Testament, it can denote physical proximity as well as social or relational closeness.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Greco-Roman world, sitting together was a sign of fellowship and acceptance. Meals, discussions, and gatherings often involved sitting together, symbolizing unity and shared life. In Jewish culture, sitting with someone could also imply agreement or participation in their actions or beliefs. Thus, the act of sitting together carried significant social and relational implications.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/4862.htm">sun</a> and <a href="/greek/2521.htm">kathémai</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to sit together or with<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>sitting (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 4775: συγκάθημαι</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">συγκάθημαι</span></span> (<span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> <span class="greek2">συνκάθημαι</span> (cf. <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">σύν</span></span>, II. at the end));
