This concept is used both literally and metaphorically throughout the Scriptures, illustrating God's protection, judgment, and the completeness of His works.<br><br><b>Old Testament Usage</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, "encompass" often describes the physical act of surrounding. For example, in the context of military actions, armies would encompass cities as a strategy for siege. In <a href="/2_kings/6-14.htm">2 Kings 6:14</a>, the king of Aram sent horses and chariots and a great army to Dothan, and they "encompassed the city" to capture the prophet Elisha.<br><br>The Psalms frequently use the term to describe God's protective nature. <a href="/psalms/32-10.htm">Psalm 32:10</a> states, "Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but loving devotion surrounds him who trusts in the LORD." Here, the idea of encompassing is used to convey the security and steadfast love that God provides to those who are faithful to Him.<br><br><b>New Testament Usage</b><br><br>In the New Testament, the concept of encompassing is often used metaphorically to describe spiritual realities. <a href="/hebrews/12.htm">Hebrews 12:1</a> exhorts believers, "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us." The "great cloud of witnesses" encompasses believers, providing encouragement and a model of faithfulness.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>Theologically, the idea of encompassing is significant in understanding God's omnipresence and omnipotence. God's ability to encompass His creation speaks to His sovereignty and intimate involvement in the world. In <a href="/psalms/139-5.htm">Psalm 139:5</a> , David acknowledges God's encompassing presence: "You hem me in behind and before; You have laid Your hand upon me." This verse highlights the comforting reality that God is always present, surrounding His people with His care and guidance.<br><br><b>Symbolism and Imagery</b><br><br>The imagery of encompassing is also used to depict God's judgment. In <a href="/isaiah/29-3.htm">Isaiah 29:3</a> , God declares, "I will camp in a circle around you; I will besiege you with towers and set up siege works against you." This portrays the inescapable nature of divine judgment upon those who oppose Him.<br><br>Conversely, encompassing is a symbol of divine protection and blessing. <a href="/zechariah/2-5.htm">Zechariah 2:5</a> promises, "For I will be a wall of fire around it, declares the LORD, and I will be the glory within it." This assurance of God's protective presence is a source of hope and strength for believers.<br><br><b>Practical Application</b><br><br>For believers, the concept of being encompassed by God is a reminder of His constant presence and protection. It encourages trust in His sovereignty and faithfulness, even amidst life's challenges. The encompassing love and grace of God call Christians to live in obedience and reliance on Him, knowing that they are never outside the reach of His care.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(<I>v. t.</I>) To surround closely; to encircle; to enclose; as, a ring encompasses the finger; an army encompasses a city; a voyage encompassing the world.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/4023.htm"><span class="l">4023. periecho -- to surround</span></a> <br><b>...</b> I contain, seize Definition: (a) I contain (of a book containing subject matter);<br> hence: it stands (has its content) thus, (b) I <b>encompass</b>, surround, get hold <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">//strongsnumbers.com/greek2/4023.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 7k</font><p><a href="/greek/4033.htm"><span class="l">4033. perikukloo -- to encircle</span></a> <br><b>...</b> Verb Transliteration: perikukloo Phonetic Spelling: (per-ee-koo-klo'-o) Short<br> Definition: I encircle, surround Definition: I encircle, surround, <b>encompass</b>. <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">//strongsnumbers.com/greek2/4033.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 6k</font><a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/247.htm"><span class="l">247. azar -- to gird, <b>encompass</b>, equip</span></a><br><b>...</b> 246, 247. azar. 248 . to gird, <b>encompass</b>, equip.
