In the New Testament, it conveys the idea of believers being intimately united with Christ, particularly in His death and resurrection. This union signifies a shared life and identity with Christ, emphasizing the transformative power of this spiritual connection.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of being "united" or "grown together" would have resonated with agricultural and botanical imagery, where plants grow together in a shared environment. This imagery is used metaphorically in the New Testament to describe the spiritual reality of believers' union with Christ. The early Christian community understood this union as foundational to their identity and spiritual life, reflecting a deep, transformative relationship with Jesus.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/4855.htm">sumphuó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>congenital, hence united with<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>united (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 4854: σύμφυτος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">σύμφυτος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">συμφυτον</span> (<span class="greek2">συμφύω</span>), <span class="accented">planted together</span> (<span class="manuref">Vulg.</span><span class="latin">complantatus</span>);
