It conveys the idea of setting up or establishing something firmly. In the New Testament, it is often used metaphorically to describe the act of establishing or confirming something with certainty.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, the concept of fastening or fixing something was significant in various contexts, from construction to legal agreements. The act of setting something up securely was essential for stability and permanence, whether it was a physical structure or a covenant. In the biblical context, this term can also reflect the spiritual idea of being firmly established in faith or doctrine.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. verb<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to make fast<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>pitched (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 4078: πήγνυμι</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">πήγνυμι</span></span>: 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ἔπηξα</span>; from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down; <span class="accented">to make fast, to fix; to fasten together, to build by fastening together</span>: <span class="greek2">σκηνήν</span>, <a href="/interlinear/hebrews/8-2.htm">Hebrews 8:2</a> (<span class="abbreviation">A.
