AI Summary
To answer, reply, respond — to give a response to a question, statement, or situation 1234. In earlier Greek this sense was expressed by the middle voice, but in the New Testament passive forms of the verb came to be used just as often with the same meaning 13; the verb can be used absolutely, with a direct object naming what is answered, with a dative of the person addressed, or with a preposition introducing the person addressed 1.
The word also carries a Hebrew-influenced use in which it does not mean "answer" in the ordinary sense at all: it can mean simply to begin speaking, taking up a conversation where a statement is expected rather than replying to a question 12, or it can appear as a redundant formula, as in the phrase "answering, he said," reflecting a Hebrew idiom rather than adding real meaning 1.
In classical Greek the verb (outside its use for "answer") also meant to separate or distinguish, and to choose 13; these senses belong to wider Greek literature rather than to its biblical use.
