Journey yourselves forth!
| Root | πορεύομαι (poreuomai) |
| Core Meanings | to travel, to journey, to go on one’s way, to depart, to walk, to conduct one’s life |
| Semantic Range | to go, depart, travel, journey, proceed, conduct oneself, live out one’s way, pass from life (die) |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, πορεύομαι often signifies more than physical movement; it can denote a life-path or obedient response to divine command. As an imperative, it frequently introduces mission, obedience, or decisive departure in accordance with God’s purposes. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, aorist (second), imperative, 2nd person plural; passive form with deponent (middle) meaning. The aorist imperative conveys a simple, decisive command directed to multiple hearers. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb πορεύομαι fundamentally denotes traveling or going on one’s way. The form πορευθῆτε is aorist imperative, second person plural, calling for a decisive action addressed to a group. Although morphologically passive in form, the verb is deponent and carries active meaning with middle/reflexive force, hence "yourselves" preserves the self-involved nuance of the middle voice. |
