It conveys the idea of encircling or surrounding.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, the concept of being "around" or "surrounding" was often used in both literal and metaphorical contexts. It could describe physical surroundings, such as walls around a city, or more abstract ideas, such as influence or presence. In the biblical context, "perix" often emphasizes the completeness or totality of what is being described, whether it be God's protection or the encampment of armies.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from <a href="/greek/4012.htm">peri</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>(all) around<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>vicinity (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 4038: πέριξ</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">πέριξ</span></span> (on the formative or strengthening xi <span class="greek2">Ξ</span> cf.
