It often implies a sense of removal or taking something from one place to another. This term can be used in both literal and metaphorical contexts, such as physically carrying something away or removing sin or guilt.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of carrying or bearing away was common in various contexts, including religious rituals, where offerings or sacrifices were carried to altars, and in everyday life, where goods and possessions were transported. The idea of removal or taking away also had significant implications in Jewish religious practices, particularly in the context of atonement and the removal of sin.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>667</b> <i>apophérō</i> (from <a href="/greek/575.htm">575</a> <i>/apó</i>, "away from" and <a href="/greek/5342.htm">5342</a> <i>/phérō</i>, "carry") – properly, carry (bring) <i>away from</i>. <a href="/greek/667.htm">667</a> (<i>apophérō</i>) focuses <i>back</i> on the original condition (situation) <i>from which</i> someone is carried away (note the prefix, <i>apo</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/575.htm">apo</a> and <a href="/greek/5342.htm">pheró</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to carry off, bear away<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>carried (1), carried...away (2), carried away (1), carry (1), led...away (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 667: ἀποφέρω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀποφέρω</span></span>: 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ἀπήνεγκα</span>; 2 aorist infinitive <span class="greek2">ἀπενεγκεῖν</span>; passive (present infinitive <span class="greek2">ἀποφέρεσθαι</span>); 1 aorist infinitive <span class="greek2">ἀπενεχθῆναι</span>; (from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down); <span class="accented">to carry off, take away</span>: <span class="greek2">τινα</span>, with the idea of violence included, <a href="/interlinear/mark/15-1.htm">Mark 15:1</a>; <span class="greek2">εἰς</span> <span class="greek2">τόπον</span> <span class="greek2">τινα</span>, <a href="/interlinear/revelation/17-3.htm">Revelation 17:3</a>; <a href="/interlinear/revelation/21-10.htm">Revelation 21:10</a>; passive <a href="/interlinear/luke/16-22.htm">Luke 16:22</a>. <span class="accented">to carry or bring away</span> (Latin<span class="latin">defero</span>): <span class="greek2">τί</span> <span class="greek2">εἰς</span> with an accusative of place, <a href="/interlinear/1_corinthians/16-3.htm">1 Corinthians 16:3</a>; <span class="greek2">τί</span> <span class="greek2">ἀπό</span> <span class="greek2">τίνος</span> <span class="greek2">ἐπί</span> <span class="greek2">τινα</span>, with passive, <a href="/interlinear/acts/19-12.htm">Acts 19:12</a> (<span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> for <span class="manuref">Rec.</span> <span class="greek2">ἐπιφέρεσθαι</span>).<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>bring, carry away. <p>From <a href="/greek/575.htm">apo</a> and <a href="/greek/5342.htm">phero</a>; to bear off (literally or relatively) -- bring, carry (away). <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/575.htm">apo</a> <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/5342.htm">phero</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>απενέγκαιτο απενέγκασθαι απένεγκε απενεγκειν απενεγκείν ἀπενεγκεῖν απενεχθηναι απενεχθήναι ἀπενεχθῆναι απενεχθήσονται απενεχθήσονταί απηνεγκαν απήνεγκαν ἀπήνεγκαν απήνεγκέ απηνεγκεν απήνεγκεν ἀπήνεγκέν απηνέχθη αποίσει αποίσονται αποίσω αποφερεσθαι ἀποφέρεσθαι αποφέρουσιν apenechthenai apenechthênai apenechthēnai apenechthē̂nai apenenkan apēnenkan apḗnenkan apenenkein apenenkeîn apenenken apēnenken apḗnenkén apopheresthai apophéresthai<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/mark/15-1.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Mark 15:1</a> <a href="/abbrev.htm" title="Verb -
