It is often used in the New Testament to describe God's pleasure or approval of certain actions, individuals, or events. The term implies a favorable disposition and is frequently associated with divine will and purpose.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of pleasure or approval was significant in both philosophical and religious contexts. The idea of divine favor was crucial in understanding the relationship between deities and humans. In the Jewish context, the notion of God's pleasure was deeply rooted in the covenant relationship, where God's approval was sought through obedience and faithfulness.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>2106</b> <i>eudokéō</i> (from <a href="/greek/2095.htm">2095</a> <i>/eú</i>, "good, well" and <i>dokeō</i>, "to think, seem") – properly, what seems good (pleasingly acceptable).</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/2095.htm">eu</a> and <a href="/greek/1380.htm">dokeó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to think well of, i.e. to be well-pleased<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>am well content (1), am well-pleased (5), been pleased (1), chosen gladly (1), good pleasure (1), has...pleasure (1), pleased (2), prefer (1), taken pleasure (1), taken...pleasure (1), thought it best (1), took pleasure (1), well-pleased (4).<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 2106: εὐδοκέω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">εὐδοκέω</span></span>, <span class="greek2">εὐδοκῶ</span>; imperfect 1 person plural <span class="greek2">εὐδοκοῦμεν</span> (<a href="/interlinear/1_thessalonians/2-8.htm">1 Thessalonians 2:8</a> (where <span class="manuref">WH</span> after <span class="manuref">Vat.</span> <span class="greek2">ἠυδοκουμεν</span>; <span class="abbreviation">Winer</span>s Grammar, and <span class="abbreviation">Buttmann</span>, as below)); 1 aorist <span class="greek2">εὐδόκησα</span> and (in <a href="/interlinear/hebrews/10-6.htm">Hebrews 10:6, 8</a>, <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span>; <a href="/interlinear/1_corinthians/10-5.htm">1 Corinthians 10:5</a> <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span>; <a href="/interlinear/romans/15-26.htm">Romans 15:26, 27</a> and <a href="/interlinear/1_thessalonians/3-1.htm">1 Thessalonians 3:1</a> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span>; <a href="/interlinear/matthew/12-18.htm">Matthew 12:18</a> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span>; <a href="/interlinear/matthew/3-17.htm">Matthew 3:17</a> <span class="manuref">T</span>; <a href="/interlinear/colossians/1-19.htm">Colossians 1:19</a> <span class="manuref">L</span> marginal reading) <span class="greek2">ἠυδόκησα</span>, cf. <span class="abbreviation">Lob. ad Phryn.</span>, p. 456 and 140; <span class="abbreviation">Winer</span>s Grammar, 71 (69); (<span class="abbreviation">Buttmann</span>, 34 (30); <span class="manuref">Tdf.</span> Proleg., p. 120; <span class="manuref">WH</span>'s Appendix, p. 162); (from <span class="greek2">εὖ</span> aud <span class="greek2">δοκέω</span>, cf.
