In the New Testament, it is used to describe the gathering of believers, particularly in the context of eschatological events or communal worship.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the first-century Greco-Roman world, gatherings and assemblies were common for various purposes, including civic, social, and religious activities. For early Christians, communal gatherings were essential for worship, teaching, and mutual encouragement. The concept of gathering was deeply rooted in Jewish tradition, where the synagogue served as a central place for community worship and instruction. The early Christian assemblies often mirrored these practices, emphasizing the importance of coming together as a body of believers.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 1997</b> <i>episynagōgḗ</i> – a <i>specific</i> (apt) "grouping together" that fulfills (builds <i>on</i>) the specific <i>purpose</i> of the gathering together (note the <i>epi</i>, "<i>on</i>"). <a href="/greek/1996.htm">See 1996</a> (<i>episynágō</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/1996.htm">episunagó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a gathering together, an assembly<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>assembling together (1), gathering together (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 1997: ἐπισυναγωγή</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἐπισυναγωγή</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἐπισυναγωγῆς</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">ἐπισυνάγω</span>, which see);
