Berean Strong's Lexicon
anatithémi: To set forth, to declare, to lay before, to communicate

Original Word: ἀνατίθημι
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: anatithémi
Pronunciation: ah-nah-TITH-ay-mee
Phonetic Spelling: (an-at-ith'-em-ahee)
Definition: To set forth, to declare, to lay before, to communicate
Meaning: I lay (a case) before, impart, communicate, declare, relate (with a view to consulting).

Word Origin: From ἀνά (ana, meaning "up" or "again") and τίθημι (tithémi, meaning "to place" or "to set")

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἀνατίθημι, the concept of declaring or setting forth can be related to Hebrew verbs like נָגַד (nagad, Strong's H5046), which means "to tell" or "to declare."

Usage: The verb ἀνατίθημι is used in the New Testament to convey the act of setting forth or declaring something, often in the context of communicating or explaining a matter. It implies a deliberate and purposeful presentation of information or a case, often for the purpose of clarification or instruction.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, communication and the presentation of ideas were highly valued, especially in philosophical and rhetorical contexts. The act of setting forth a case or argument was a common practice in both public and private discourse. In the context of the early Christian church, the apostles and early believers often needed to explain and defend the gospel message, both to fellow Jews and to Gentiles.
