(Synonym: see ἔρχομαι.)

Word Origin: From the Greek words διά (dia, meaning "through") and ἔρχομαι (erchomai, meaning "to come" or "to go").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of passing through or traveling is also present in the Hebrew Scriptures, though there is no direct one-to-one correspondence. However, similar ideas can be found in Hebrew words such as עָבַר (abar, Strong's Hebrew 5674), which means "to pass over" or "to go through," and halak (הלך, Strong's Hebrew 1980), meaning "to walk" or "to go." These terms are used in contexts that involve movement, journeying, or the passage of time, paralleling the Greek διερχομαι in thematic content.

Usage: The verb διερχομαι is used in the New Testament to describe the act of passing through a place, traveling from one location to another, or spreading a message or influence. It often conveys the idea of movement with purpose or mission.

Context: The Greek verb διερχομαι appears frequently in the New Testament, illustrating the movement and mission of individuals, particularly in the context of Jesus' ministry and the spread of the Gospel. It is used to describe physical journeys, such as Jesus traveling through towns and villages, as well as metaphorical journeys, such as the spread of the Gospel message.

In the Gospels, διερχομαι is often used to depict Jesus' itinerant ministry. For example, in Luke 8:1 (BSB), "Soon afterward, Jesus traveled from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God." Here, διερχομαι emphasizes the active and purposeful nature of Jesus' mission.

The term also appears in the Acts of the Apostles, highlighting the missionary journeys of the apostles. In Acts 8:4 (BSB), "Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went," the use of διερχομαι underscores the dynamic spread of the early Christian message despite persecution.

Furthermore, διερχομαι can denote the passage of time or events, as seen in Acts 9:32 (BSB), "As Peter traveled throughout the area, he went to visit the saints in Lydda." This usage reflects the ongoing and continuous nature of the apostolic mission.

Overall, διερχομαι conveys a sense of movement that is integral to the narrative of the New Testament, symbolizing both physical journeys and the spiritual journey of spreading the Gospel.
