Translations: crucifying, having crucified, impaling, having impaled
From the root: ἈΝΑΣΤΑΥΡΌΩ
Part of Speech: Verb, Participle
Explanation: This word is a compound verb formed from the prefix 'ἀνα-' (ana-), meaning 'again' or 'up', and 'σταυρόω' (stauroō), meaning 'to crucify' or 'to impale'. Therefore, it literally means 'to crucify again' or 'to impale again'. However, in many contexts, especially in the New Testament, the prefix 'ana-' can intensify the action or simply indicate the action of crucifying or impaling without necessarily implying a repetition. It describes the act of putting someone to death by fastening them to a cross or stake.
