It encompasses the idea of carrying out or executing a task or command with faithfulness and diligence. The term is used in various contexts throughout Scripture, highlighting the importance of obedience and the fulfillment of God's will.<br><br><b>Old Testament Usage</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word often translated as "perform" is עָשָׂה (asah), which means to do, make, or accomplish. This term is frequently used in the context of fulfilling vows or commandments. For example, in <a href="/deuteronomy/23-21.htm">Deuteronomy 23:21</a> , it is written, "If you make a vow to the LORD your God, do not be slow to keep it, because He will surely require it of you, and it would be sin against you." Here, the emphasis is on the necessity of performing one's vows to God without delay.<br><br>The concept of performing is also evident in the sacrificial system, where the Israelites were required to perform specific rituals and offerings as acts of worship and atonement. In <a href="/leviticus/16-34.htm">Leviticus 16:34</a> , the Day of Atonement is described: "This shall be a permanent statute for you, to make atonement for the Israelites once a year because of all their sins." The performance of these rituals was crucial for maintaining the covenant relationship with God.<br><br><b>New Testament Usage</b><br><br>In the New Testament, the Greek word often translated as "perform" is ποιέω (poieo), which similarly means to do or make. The New Testament emphasizes the performance of God's will through obedience to Christ's teachings. In <a href="/matthew/5-17.htm">Matthew 5:17</a> , Jesus states, "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them." Here, Jesus speaks of His mission to perform or fulfill the requirements of the Law, underscoring His role as the Messiah.<br><br>The Apostle Paul also speaks of performing in the context of spiritual gifts and ministry. In <a href="/romans/12-6.htm">Romans 12:6-7</a> , he writes, "We have different gifts according to the grace given us. If one's gift is prophecy, let him use it in proportion to his faith; if it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach." The performance of these gifts is seen as an act of service to God and the body of Christ.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>Theologically, the concept of performing in the Bible underscores the importance of faithfulness and obedience to God's commands. It reflects the belief that actions are a manifestation of faith and that true faith is evidenced by the performance of good works. <a href="/james/2-17.htm">James 2:17</a> states, "So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead." This highlights the necessity of performing good works as a demonstration of living faith.<br><br>Moreover, the performance of God's will is seen as a response to His grace and love. Believers are called to perform acts of righteousness not to earn salvation, but as a grateful response to the salvation already received through Jesus Christ. <a href="/ephesians/2-10.htm">Ephesians 2:10</a> affirms, "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life."<br><br>In summary, the biblical concept of "perform" is deeply rooted in the themes of obedience, faithfulness, and the fulfillment of God's will. It calls believers to live out their faith through actions that align with God's commands and purposes.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

In the New Testament the word has been kept only in <a href="/matthew/5-33.htm">Matthew 5:33</a> and <a href="/romans/4-21.htm">Romans 4:21</a>, but in neither verse does the Greek accent the completion of the act, in the former case apodidomi, literally, "to give back," in the latter poieo, "to make," "to do," being used.<br><br>Performance is found in the King James Version Sirach 19:20 (the Revised Version (British and American) "doing"); 2 Maccabees 11:17 (inserted needlessly and omitted by the Revised Version (British and American)); <a href="/luke/1-45.htm">Luke 1:45</a> (the Revised Version (British and American) "fulfilment"); <a href="/2_corinthians/8-11.htm">2 Corinthians 8:11</a> (the Revised Version (British and American) "completion").<br><br>Burton Scott Easton<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/3008.htm"><span class="l">3008. leitourgeo -- to serve the state, ie by anal. to <b>perform</b> <b>...</b></span></a> <br><b>...</b> to <b>perform</b> religious service.
