Near synonyms 1 word
- συμπάσχω sympáschō · G4841 · to join in suffering, to assume one’s share of suffering, to suffer together
- συμπάσχω (sympáschō, G4841) shares the σύν- prefix, meaning together, and conveys shared suffering or sympathetic experience. While συνωδίνω specifically evokes the imagery of labor pains (ὠδίνω), συμπάσχω is the more general term for suffering alongside another. Both can express sympathetic participation in affliction and are semantically adjacent in contexts emphasizing collective suffering (Romans 8:17 uses συμπάσχω, and Romans 8:22 uses συνωδίνω).
