It conveys the idea of giving a portion of what one has to someone else, often with a sense of generosity and community. In the New Testament, it is used to describe acts of sharing material goods, spiritual gifts, or knowledge.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, sharing and generosity were important social values, often associated with hospitality and community life. The early Christian communities emphasized sharing as a reflection of their unity in Christ and as a practical expression of love and care for one another. This was particularly significant in a context where many believers faced economic hardship and persecution.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/3326.htm">meta</a> and <a href="/greek/1325.htm">didómi</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to give a share of<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>gives (1), impart (2), share (2).<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 3330: μεταδίδωμι</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">μεταδίδωμι</span></span>; 2 aorist subjunctive <span class="greek2">μεταδῶ</span>, imperative 3 person singular <span class="greek2">μεταδότω</span>, infinitive <span class="greek2">μεταδοῦναι</span>; (from <span class="abbreviation">Theognis</span>, <span class="abbreviation">Herodotus</span> down); <span class="accented">to share</span> a thing with anyone (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">μετά</span></span>, III. 1), <span class="accented">to impart</span>: absolutely <span class="greek2">ὁ</span> <span class="greek2">μεταδιδούς</span>, <span class="accented">he that imparteth</span> of his substance, <a href="/interlinear/romans/12-8.htm">Romans 12:8</a>, cf.
