It conveys the idea of leaving a port or harbor to embark on a journey across the waters.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Mediterranean world, sea travel was a common mode of transportation for trade, military, and personal travel. The act of setting sail was significant, as it often marked the beginning of a journey that could be fraught with danger due to unpredictable weather and the limitations of ancient navigation techniques. The term ἀποπλέω would have been familiar to those living in coastal regions and involved in maritime activities.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/575.htm">apo</a> and <a href="/greek/4126.htm">pleó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to sail away<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>sail (1), sailed (2), sailing (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 636: ἀποπλέω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀποπλέω</span></span>;
