It can refer to both literal and figurative presentations, such as offering sacrifices or presenting oneself or one's actions before God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the act of offering or presenting was a significant part of religious and social practices. Offerings were made to deities in temples, and presenting gifts or tributes was a common way to show respect or allegiance. In the Jewish context, offerings were central to worship and atonement rituals, as prescribed in the Mosaic Law. The concept of bringing forth or offering oneself to God is deeply rooted in the Jewish tradition and is carried into the Christian understanding of living a life dedicated to God.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>4393</b> <i>prophérō</i> (from <a href="/greek/4253.htm">4253</a> <i>/pró</i>, "towards" and <a href="/greek/5342.htm">5342</a> <i>/phérō</i>, "carry, bring along") – properly, to bring the goal forward with high energy (motion, force), i.e. moving something to its <i>necessary manifestation</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 href="/greek/4253.htm">pro</a> and <a href="/greek/5342.htm">pheró</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to bring forth<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>brings forth (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 4393: προφέρω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">προφέρω</span></span>;
