It conveys a sense of urgency and thoroughness, often implying a transition from a state of rest or dormancy to one of alertness or action. This term can be used both literally, as in waking someone from physical sleep, and metaphorically, as in stirring someone to spiritual awareness or action.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, sleep was often seen as a state of vulnerability and inactivity. The act of awakening someone was not just a physical action but could also carry connotations of bringing someone to a state of readiness or preparedness. In the Jewish context, awakening could also have spiritual implications, as the prophets often called the people to awaken from spiritual slumber and return to God.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1223.htm">dia</a> and <a href="/greek/1453.htm">egeiró</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to arouse completely<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>got (2), stir (1), stirred (1), stirring (1), woke (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 1326: διεγείρω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">διεγείρω</span></span>; 1 aorist <span class="greek2">διηγειρα</span>; passive, imperfect <span class="greek2">διηγειρομην</span> (but <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> (<span class="manuref">T</span> editions 2, 7) <span class="greek2">διεγείρετο</span> in <a href="/interlinear/john/6-18.htm">John 6:18</a>, cf. <span class="abbreviation">Buttmann</span>, 34 (30); <span class="manuref">WH</span>'s Appendix, p. 161); 1 aorist preposition <span class="greek2">διεγερθείς</span>; <span class="accented">to wake up, awaken, arouse</span> (from repose; differing from the simple <span class="greek2">ἐγείρω</span>, which has a wider meaning); from sleep: <span class="greek2">τινα</span>, <a href="/interlinear/mark/4-38.htm">Mark 4:38</a> (here <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> <span class="greek2">ἐγείρουσιν</span>); <a href="/interlinear/luke/8-24.htm">Luke 8:24</a>; passive, <a href="/interlinear/luke/8-24.htm">Luke 8:24</a> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> text <span class="manuref">WH</span>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/4-39.htm">Mark 4:39</a>; with the addition <span class="greek2">ἀπό</span> <span class="greek2">τοῦ</span> <span class="greek2">ὕπνου</span>, <a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-24.htm">Matthew 1:24</a> (<span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> <span class="greek2">ἐγερθείς</span>); from repose, quiet: in passage of the sea, which begins to be agitated, <span class="accented">to rise,</span> <a href="/interlinear/john/6-18.htm">John 6:18</a>.
