It is used in the New Testament to describe physical movement, as well as metaphorical or spiritual stirring. The term can imply causing something to change position or state, whether literally or figuratively.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, movement was often associated with life and activity. The concept of motion was significant in philosophical discussions, particularly in the works of Aristotle, who explored the nature of movement and change.
