However, the concept of sailing and navigation can be related to Hebrew terms for sea travel, such as יָם (yam, meaning "sea") and סָפִין (saphin, meaning "ship").<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The verb "hupopleó" is used in the context of navigation and maritime travel, specifically referring to the act of sailing under the lee of an island or landmass. This term is employed to describe a strategic sailing maneuver where a ship passes on the sheltered side of a landform to avoid adverse weather conditions or to take advantage of calmer waters.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Mediterranean world, maritime travel was a common mode of transportation and trade. Sailors often had to navigate challenging weather conditions and relied on their knowledge of the sea and the landscape to ensure safe passage. Sailing under the lee of an island was a practical technique to avoid strong winds and rough seas, demonstrating the skill and experience of ancient mariners.<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/4126.htm">pleó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to sail under (i.e. under the lee of)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>sailed under (2), sailed under the shelter (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 5284: ὑποπλέω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ὑποπλέω</span></span>: 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ὑπέπλευσα</span>; (<span class="manuref">Vulg.</span><span class="latin">subnavigo</span>); <span class="accented">to sail under, i. e. to sail close by,</span> pass to the leeward of: with the accusative of the place, <a href="/interlinear/acts/27-4.htm">Acts 27:4, 7</a>.
