Usage: The verb "paideuó" primarily refers to the process of training or educating, often with an emphasis on discipline and correction. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the way God disciplines His children, akin to a father training his child. This discipline is not merely punitive but is intended for growth, maturity, and righteousness. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, "paideia" was a comprehensive system of education and training that aimed to cultivate virtue and wisdom in young people. It involved not only intellectual instruction but also moral and physical training. The concept of "paideuó" in the biblical context carries a similar holistic approach, emphasizing the development of character and faith through divine discipline. HELPS Word-studies 3811 paideúō (from 3816 /país, "a child under development with strict training") – properly, to train up a child (3816 /país), so they mature and realize their full potential (development). This requires necessary discipline (training), which includes administering chastisement (punishment). 3811 /paideúō ("to instruct by training") is the root of the English terms, "pedagogue, pedagogy." [Our English word "chasten" comes from "Latin castus, pure, chaste, and means to purify, cf. Heb 12:6f" (WP, 2, 282).
