(Compare: ἐπτείνω, Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From the Greek preposition ἐκ (ek, meaning "out of" or "from") and the verb τείνω (teínō, meaning "to stretch" or "to extend").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Hebrew 5186: נָטָה (natah) • to stretch out, extend, or spread out. Usage: The verb ἐκτείνω is used in the New Testament to describe physical actions of extending or stretching out, often in the context of Jesus or others reaching out their hands for healing, blessing, or other significant actions. Context: The Greek verb ἐκτείνω appears in several key passages in the New Testament, illustrating both literal and metaphorical actions of extending or reaching out. It is frequently used in the context of Jesus' miracles and teachings, where He stretches out His hand to heal or to perform a significant act. For example, in Matthew 12:13, Jesus tells a man with a withered hand, "Stretch out your hand." The man stretches it out, and it is restored to health, demonstrating Jesus' authority and power to heal.
