About this word
About this word
ἐκἔχω (ekéchō), “hold out, project,” is a word from the Greek Septuagint — the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament. It does not occur in the Greek New Testament, so it carries no Strong’s number from Thayer’s (New-Testament) lexicon; the gloss shown here is a curated modern-English sense rather than a Strong’s definition. It appears 10 times across the Septuagint — open the Appearances tab to read it in context.
