It conveys a sense of reaching out or making something available.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the act of stretching forth one's hand could symbolize offering peace, making a request, or presenting a gift. This action was often associated with gestures of goodwill or supplication. In the context of the New Testament, such gestures would have been understood as significant acts of communication and relationship-building.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/4253.htm">pro</a> and teinó (to stretch)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to stretch out<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>stretched (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 4385: προτείνω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">προτείνω</span></span>: 1 aorist <span class="greek2">προετεινα</span>; (from <span class="abbreviation">Herodotus</span> down); <span class="accented">to stretch forth, stretch out</span>: <span class="greek2">ὡς</span> <span class="greek2">προέτειναν</span> (<span class="manuref">Rec.</span> <span class="greek2">προέτεινεν</span>) <span class="greek2">αὐτόν</span> <span class="greek2">τοῖς</span> <span class="greek2">ἱμᾶσιν</span>, when they had stretched him out for the thongs i. e. to receive the blows of the thongs (by tying him up to a beam or a pillar; for it appears from <a href="/interlinear/acts/22-29.htm">Acts 22:29</a> that Paul had already been bound), <a href="/interlinear/acts/22-25.htm">Acts 22:25</a> (<span class="abbreviation">Winer</span>s Grammar, § 31 at the beginning; others (cf. <span class="abbreviation">R.
