It implies a formal or official recording, often with the connotation of permanence or authority. In the context of the New Testament, it can refer to the recording of names or events in a book or register.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Greco-Roman world, writing was a crucial part of administration and governance. Official documents, legal contracts, and public records were inscribed on various materials such as papyrus, parchment, or stone. The act of inscribing was often associated with authority and authenticity, as written records were used to validate transactions, agreements, and historical events. In Jewish culture, the concept of being written in a book, such as the Book of Life, held significant spiritual meaning, symbolizing one's standing before God.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1722.htm">en</a> and <a href="/greek/1125.htm">graphó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to inscribe, to enter in a register<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>recorded (1), written (2).<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 1449: ἐγγράφω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἐγγράφω</span></span> (<span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> <span class="greek2">ἐγγράφω</span>, see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">ἐν</span></span>, III. 3): perfect passive <span class="greek2">ἐγγεγραμμαι</span>;
