It often conveys a sense of approval or correctness in action or condition. In the New Testament, it is used to describe actions or states that are commendable or proper.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, the concept of "εὖ" was significant in both philosophical and everyday contexts. It was associated with the idea of excellence and virtue, reflecting the Greek pursuit of "arete" (excellence) in various aspects of life. In the New Testament, this term aligns with the Jewish and Christian emphasis on righteousness and moral goodness, reflecting a life lived in accordance with God's will.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from eus (good)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>well<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>done (1), good (1), well (2), well done (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 2095: εὖ</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">εὖ</span></span>, adverb (properly, <span class="greek2">εὖ</span>, the unused neuter of the adjective <span class="greek2">ἐΰς</span> in <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span>), <span class="accented">well</span>: <span class="greek2">εὖ</span> <span class="greek2">πράσσω</span>, not as many interpreters take it, contrary to ordinary Greek usage, <span class="accented">to do well</span> i. e. <span class="accented">act rightly</span> (which in Greek is expressed by <span class="greek2">ὀρθῶς</span> or <span class="greek2">καλῶς</span> <span class="greek2">πράσσω</span>), but <span class="accented">to be well off, fare well, prosper,</span> <a href="/interlinear/acts/15-29.htm">Acts 15:29</a> (<span class="abbreviation">R.
