It implies a further indebtedness beyond what is already owed. This term is often used in contexts where there is an accumulation of debt or a moral obligation that extends beyond the initial requirement.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, debt was a common aspect of economic life, and the concept of owing more than one initially borrowed was well understood. The idea of accumulating debt could also be metaphorically applied to moral or ethical obligations, reflecting the cultural understanding of duty and responsibility. In Jewish thought, debt was not only a financial matter but also had spiritual implications, as seen in the Year of Jubilee and the forgiveness of debts.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>4359</b> <i>prosopheílō</i> (from <a href="/greek/4314.htm">4314</a> <i>/prós</i>, "towards" which intensifies <a href="/greek/3784.htm">3784</a> <i>/opheílō</i>, "owe") – properly, owe towards, i.e. be <i>indebted</i> on a <i>personal</i> level (used only in Phm 19).</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/4314.htm">pros</a> and <a href="/greek/3784.htm">opheiló</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to owe besides<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>owe (1), well (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 4359: προσοφείλω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">προσοφείλω</span></span>; <span class="accented">to owe besides</span> (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">πρός</span></span>, IV. 2): <span class="greek2">σεαυτόν</span>, i. e. <span class="accented">besides</span> what I have just asked of thee <span class="accented">thou owest to me even thine own self,</span> since it was by my agency that thou wast brought to faith in Christ, <a href="/interlinear/philemon/1-19.htm">Philemon 1:19</a>.
