Usage: The verb "exaggelló" means to proclaim or declare something openly and publicly. It carries the connotation of making something known with authority and clarity. In the New Testament, it is often used in the context of declaring the works and praises of God. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, public proclamation was a common practice for disseminating news, decrees, and important information.
