4327. prosdechomai

prosdechomai: to receive to oneself
Original Word: προσδέχομαι
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: prosdechomai
Phonetic Spelling: (pros-dekh'-om-ahee)
Short Definition: I expect, welcome, accept
Definition: (a) I await, expect, (b) I receive, welcome (originally: to my house), (c) I accept.

4327 prosdéxomai (from 4314 /prós, "towards, interchange" and 1209/dexomai, "welcome, receive") – properly, to receive in a personal (open) manner; to welcome with warm reciprocity.

4327/prosdéxomai ("wait actively, expectantly") means being "ready and willing" to give and receive. 4327 (prosdéxomai) then expresses expectant waiting where a person is ready and willing to receive all that is hoped for (note the force of pros). This is active "looking-for-and-waiting!"

[The high level of personal involvement (interest) motivating 4327 (prosdéxomai) accounts for why it is always in the Greek middle voice.]

Word Origin
from pros and dechomai
Definition
to receive to oneself
NASB Word Usage
accepted (1), accepting (1), cherish (1), looking (3), receive (2), receives (1), waiting (5), waiting anxiously (1).
