It implies a sense of stability, perseverance, and unwavering commitment, often in the context of faith or moral conviction. The term is frequently used to encourage believers to remain steadfast in their faith and to hold firm to the teachings of Christ.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of standing firm was often associated with military imagery, where soldiers were expected to hold their ground in battle. This cultural backdrop would have resonated with early Christians, who were often encouraged to stand firm in the face of persecution and trials. The steadfastness implied by "stékó" would have been seen as a virtue, reflecting both personal integrity and communal solidarity.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the perf. tense of <a href="/greek/2476.htm">histémi</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to stand, spec. stand firm<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>stand (2), stand firm (4), standing (1), standing firm (2), stands (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 4739: στήκω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">στήκω</span></span>; (an inferior Greek word, derived from <span class="greek2">ἕστηκα</span>, perfect of <span class="greek2">ἵστημι</span>; see <span class="abbreviation">Buttmann</span>, 48 (41); (<span class="abbreviation">Winer</span>s Grammar, 24, 26 (25); <span class="manuref">WH</span>.
