It conveys a sense of being overwhelmed by grief or sadness, often in response to a significant or impending event. In the New Testament, it is used to express the deep emotional turmoil experienced by individuals in moments of great trial or anticipation of suffering.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, expressions of grief and sorrow were often public and communal, with mourning rituals and lamentations being common practices. The use of "perilupos" in the New Testament reflects the intense personal and communal experiences of distress that were part of the cultural context. The term captures the depth of emotional response expected in situations of loss, betrayal, or impending doom.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>4036</b> <i>perílypos</i> (an adjective, derived from <a href="/greek/4012.htm">4012</a> <i>/perí</i>, "encompassing" and <a href="/greek/3077.htm">3077</a> <i>/lýpē</i>, "sorrow") – properly, being sorrowful "all-around," i.e. <i>engulfed</i> in sorrow.</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/4012.htm">peri</a> and <a href="/greek/3077.htm">lupé</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>very sad<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>deeply grieved (2), very sad (1), very sorry (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 4036: περίλυπος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">περίλυπος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">περίλυπον</span> (<span class="greek2">περί</span> and <span class="greek2">λύπη</span>, and so properly, 'encompassed with grief' (cf. <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">περί</span></span>, III. 3)), <span class="accented">very sad, exceedingly sorrowful</span>: <a href="/interlinear/matthew/26-38.htm">Matthew 26:38</a>: <a href="/interlinear/mark/6-26.htm">Mark 6:26</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/14-34.htm">Mark 14:34</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/18-23.htm">Luke 18:23, 24</a> (where <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> omit; <span class="manuref">Tr</span> brackets the clause).
