It can imply a physical presence, such as approaching or standing by, or a more metaphorical presence, such as an event or situation coming upon someone. In the New Testament, it is often used to describe sudden or unexpected occurrences, such as the arrival of an angel or a confrontation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of "standing over" or "coming upon" could carry both positive and negative connotations. It might refer to a protective presence or an authoritative stance, as well as an aggressive or confrontational approach. The New Testament usage reflects these nuances, often in the context of divine intervention or significant events.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1909.htm">epi</a> and <a href="/greek/2476.htm">histémi</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to set upon, set up, to stand upon, be present<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>appeared (3), attacking (1), came (5), come (3), confronted (1), ready (1), set (1), standing (2), standing near (1), stood (1), stood before (1), stood near (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 2186: ἐφίστημι</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἐφίστημι</span></span>: 2 aorist <span class="greek2">ἐπέστην</span>, participle <span class="greek2">ἐπιστάς</span>, imperative <span class="greek2">ἐπίστηθι</span>; perfect participle <span class="greek2">ἐφεστώς</span>; <span class="accented">to place at, place upon, place over</span>; in the N.
