It implies a thorough or comprehensive covering, often with the intent of protection or hiding from view. In the New Testament, it is used metaphorically to describe spiritual or moral concealment.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, covering or concealing was often associated with protection, modesty, or secrecy. Clothing, for example, was used to cover the body for modesty and protection from the elements. In a spiritual sense, covering could also imply a form of divine protection or the hiding of one's sins or faults.<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/2572.htm">kaluptó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to cover around<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>blindfold (1), blindfolded (1), covered (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 4028: περικαλύπτω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">περικαλύπτω</span></span>; 1 aorist participle <span class="greek2">περικαλυψας</span>; perfect passive participle <span class="greek2">περικεκαλυμμενος</span>; from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down; <span class="accented">to cover all around</span> (<span class="greek2">περί</span>, III. 1), <span class="accented">to cover up, cover over</span>: <span class="greek2">τό</span> <span class="greek2">πρόσωπον</span>, <a href="/interlinear/mark/14-65.htm">Mark 14:65</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/22-64.htm">Luke 22:64</a> (<span class="abbreviation">A.
