It can mean to physically apprehend or capture, as well as to mentally grasp or understand a concept. In the New Testament, it is often used to describe the act of comprehending spiritual truths or the inability of darkness to overcome the light.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of "katalambanó" would have been understood in various contexts, from military conquests to philosophical understanding. The term implies a decisive action, whether it be capturing a city or grasping a profound truth. In the New Testament, this word is used to convey the power and authority of Christ's light and truth over darkness and ignorance.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>2638</b> <i>katalambánō</i> (from <a href="/greek/2596.htm">2596</a> <i>/katá</i>, "<i>down</i>, according to," which intensifies <a href="/greek/2983.htm">2983</a> <i>/lambánō</i>, "aggressively take") – properly, take hold of <i>exactly</i>, <i>with decisive initiative</i> (eager self-interest); to grasp something in a forceful (firm) manner; (figuratively) to <i>apprehend</i> (comprehend), "making it one's <i>own</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/2596.htm">kata</a> and <a href="/greek/2983.htm">lambanó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to lay hold of, seize<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>attained (1), caught (2), comprehend (2), found (1), laid hold (2), lay hold (1), overtake (2), seizes (1), understand (1), understood (1), win (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 2638: καταλαμβάνω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">καταλαμβάνω</span></span>: 2 aorist <span class="greek2">κατέλαβον</span>; perfect infinitive <span class="greek2">κατειληφέναι</span>; passive, perfect 3 person singular <span class="greek2">κατείληπται</span> (<a href="/interlinear/john/8-4.htm">John 8:4</a> as given in <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> text), perfect participle <span class="greek2">κατειλημμένος</span>; 1 aorist <span class="greek2">κατειληφθην</span> (<a href="/interlinear/john/8-4.htm">John 8:4</a> <span class="manuref">R<span class="lexsuper">st</span></span> <span class="manuref"><span class="lexsuper">bez</span></span> <span class="manuref"><span class="lexsuper">elz</span></span> <span class="manuref">G</span>) (on the augment cf. <span class="abbreviation">Winer</span>'s Grammar, § 12, 6), and <span class="greek2">κατελήφθην</span> (<a href="/interlinear/philippians/3-12.htm">Philippians 3:12</a> <span class="manuref">R</span> <span class="manuref">G</span>), and <span class="greek2">κατελήμφθην</span> (ibid. <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span>; on the mu <span class="greek2">μ'</span> see under the word Mu); middle, present <span class="greek2">καταλαμβάνομαι</span>; 2 aorist <span class="greek2">κατελαβόμην</span>; cf.
