Strong's Lexicon epanamimnéskó: To remind again, to bring to remembrance Original Word: ἐπαναμιμνῄσκω Word Origin: From the Greek preposition ἐπί (epi, meaning "upon" or "over") and the verb ἀναμιμνῄσκω (anamimnéskó, meaning "to remind" or "to recall"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἐπαναμιμνῄσκω, the concept of reminding or remembering is present in Hebrew through words like זָכַר (zakar, Strong's H2142), which means "to remember" or "to recall." Usage: The verb ἐπαναμιμνῄσκω is used to denote the act of reminding someone of something again, or bringing something back to their memory. It implies a repetition or reinforcement of a previous reminder. This term is often used in contexts where there is a need to emphasize or reinforce a particular teaching or truth. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, oral tradition and memory played a crucial role in the transmission of knowledge and teachings. Teachers and philosophers often used repetition as a method to ensure that their students retained important information. In the context of the early Christian church, reminding believers of the teachings of Jesus and the apostles was essential for maintaining doctrinal purity and encouraging steadfastness in the faith.
