It conveys the idea of coming to the aid of someone or something, often implying a sense of responsibility or duty. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the act of providing assistance or support, particularly in a moral or spiritual context.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of helping or supporting others was often tied to social and familial obligations. The use of "antilambanó" in the New Testament reflects the early Christian community's emphasis on mutual support and care, which was countercultural in a society that often prioritized individualism and social status. The term underscores the Christian call to bear one another's burdens and to act in love and service.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>482</b> <i>antilambánomai</i> (from <a href="/greek/473.htm">473</a> <i>/antí</i>, "corresponding to" and <a href="/greek/2983.htm">2983</a> <i>/lambánō</i>, "to take hold of with<i> initiative</i>") – properly, <i>aggressively</i> take hold of in a <i>proportional</i> (<i>fitting</i>) way, i.e. that "matches" (offsets, corresponds to) the need of the situation (note the prefix, <i>anti</i>).
