Strong's Lexicon enduo: To put on, to clothe, to be dressed Original Word: ἐνδύω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "ἐν" (en, meaning "in" or "on") and the root "δύω" (duo, meaning "to sink" or "to go into"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is לָבַשׁ (labash), which also means to clothe or dress. Usage: The verb "enduo" primarily means to put on clothing or to be clothed. In the New Testament, it is often used metaphorically to describe the spiritual act of putting on virtues, Christ, or the armor of God. It conveys the idea of adopting a new identity or character, much like one would don a garment. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, clothing was not only a necessity but also a symbol of status, identity, and role. To "put on" a garment could signify a change in one's social status or role. In the Jewish context, clothing also had religious significance, as seen in the priestly garments. The metaphorical use of "enduo" in the New Testament reflects this cultural understanding, emphasizing a transformation or adoption of a new spiritual identity.
