In the New Testament, it often refers to the act of pleasing God or others, sometimes with the connotation of seeking approval or favor. It can imply a positive, selfless desire to serve and honor others, or it can carry a negative connotation when it involves seeking human approval over divine approval.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of pleasing others was significant in social and political contexts. Pleasing one's superiors or peers could lead to social advancement or favor. In the Jewish context, pleasing God was central to religious life, as obedience and devotion were seen as ways to honor God. The early Christian community, influenced by both Jewish and Greco-Roman cultures, navigated these dynamics by emphasizing the importance of pleasing God above all.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>700</b> <i>aréskō</i> – properly, <i>satisfy</i> (make good on something, <i>LS</i>); hence to please, winning someone's favor (affection, approval) because <i>meeting their expectation</i> (especially by being in moral <i>agreement</i>).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from a prim. root ar- (fit together)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to please<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>found approval (1), please (12), pleased (2), pleasing (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 700: ἀρέσκω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀρέσκω</span></span>; imperfect <span class="greek2">ἤρεσκον</span>; future <span class="greek2">ἀρέσω</span>; 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ἤρεσα</span>; (<span class="greek2">ἈΡΩ</span> (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">ἄρα</span></span> at the beginning)); (from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down); <p><span class="emphasized">a.</span> <span class="accented">to please</span>: <span class="greek2">τίνι</span>, <a href="/interlinear/matthew/14-6.htm">Matthew 14:6</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/6-22.htm">Mark 6:22</a>; <a href="/interlinear/romans/8-8.htm">Romans 8:8</a>; <a href="/interlinear/romans/15-2.htm">Romans 15:2</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_thessalonians/2-15.htm">1 Thessalonians 2:15</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_thessalonians/4-1.htm">1 Thessalonians 4:1</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_corinthians/7-32.htm">1 Corinthians 7:32-34</a>; <a href="/interlinear/galatians/1-10.htm">Galatians 1:10</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_timothy/2-4.htm">2 Timothy 2:4</a>; <span class="greek2">ἐνώπιον</span> <span class="greek2">τίνος</span>, after the Hebrew <span class="hebrew">בְּעֵינֵי</span>, <a href="/interlinear/acts/6-5.htm">Acts 6:5</a> (<a href="/interlinear/1_kings/3-10.htm">1 Kings 3:10</a>; <a href="/interlinear/genesis/34-18.htm">Genesis 34:18</a>, etc.). <p><span class="emphasized">b.</span> <span class="accented">to strive to please; to accommodate oneself to the opinions, desires, interests of others</span>: <span class="greek2">τίνι</span>, <a href="/interlinear/1_corinthians/10-33.htm">1 Corinthians 10:33</a> (<span class="greek2">πάντα</span> <span class="greek2">πᾶσιν</span> <span class="greek2">ἀρέσκω</span>); <a href="/interlinear/1_thessalonians/2-4.htm">1 Thessalonians 2:4</a>. <span class="greek2">ἀρέσκειν</span> <span class="greek2">ἑαυτῷ</span>, to please oneself and therefore to have an eye to one's own interests: <a href="/interlinear/romans/15-1.htm">Romans 15:1, 3</a>.<FOOTNOTE:1> <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>to please<p>Probably from <a href="/greek/142.htm">airo</a> (through the idea of exciting emotion); to be agreeable (or by implication, to seek to be so) -- please. <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/142.htm">airo</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>αρεσαι αρέσαι ἀρέσαι αρεσάσης αρεσάτω αρέσει αρεση αρέση ἀρέσῃ αρέσκει αρεσκειν αρέσκειν ἀρέσκειν αρεσκετω αρεσκέτω ἀρεσκέτω αρέσκη αρέσκοι αρεσκοντες αρέσκοντες ἀρέσκοντες αρεσκοντων αρεσκόντων ἀρεσκόντων αρεσκω αρέσκω ἀρέσκω ήρεσαν ήρεσε ηρεσεν ήρεσεν ἤρεσεν ήρεσκεν ηρεσκον ήρεσκον ἤρεσκον aresai arésai arese aresē arései arésēi areskein aréskein aresketo aresketō areskéto areskétō aresko areskō arésko aréskō areskontes aréskontes areskonton areskontōn areskónton areskóntōn eresen ēresen ḗresen ereskon ēreskon ḗreskon<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/matthew/14-6.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Matthew 14:6</a> <a href="/abbrev.htm" title="Verb -
