Strong's Lexicon exallomai: To leap out, to spring forth Original Word: ἐξάλλομαι Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "ἐκ" (ek, meaning "out of") and the verb "ἅλλομαι" (hallomai, meaning "to leap" or "to spring"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "exallomai," similar expressions of leaping or jumping can be found in the Hebrew Bible, such as in Psalm 18:29, where the psalmist speaks of leaping over a wall, using the Hebrew verb "דָּלַג" (dalag). Usage: The verb "exallomai" is used to describe a sudden, vigorous movement, often with a sense of excitement or urgency. It conveys the idea of leaping or springing out, typically in a physical sense, but it can also imply a metaphorical or emotional leap. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greek world, physical expressions such as leaping or jumping were often associated with athleticism, celebration, or divine inspiration. The Greeks valued physical prowess and agility, which were celebrated in their athletic competitions and religious festivals. In the context of the New Testament, such expressions could also symbolize spiritual awakening or the joy of encountering the divine.
