It often conveys a sense of intentional or purposeful delay, rather than mere procrastination. In the New Testament, it is used to describe a deliberate pause or slowness in action, often with a purpose or reason behind it.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of time and delay was often associated with divine timing and purpose. The idea that a delay could be intentional and purposeful was not foreign to the ancient mindset. In the context of the New Testament, delays are sometimes seen as opportunities for growth, reflection, or divine intervention.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 1019</b> <i>bradýnō</i> – loiter, be unduly slow.
