δᾰπᾰν-άω:— G1159
To spend, expend; of money, resources, or oneself, sometimes with connotations of squandering or generous self-sacrifice.
A verb of economic expenditure that ranges from neutral spending to negative squandering to positive self-giving. The hemorrhaging woman 'spent all she had' on physicians to no avail (Mark 5:26). The prodigal son 'spent everything' in dissolute living (Luke 15:14). Paul instructs the Jerusalem-bound believers to pay the Nazirite expenses of four men (Acts 21:24). Most strikingly, Paul declares he will 'gladly spend and be utterly spent' for the Corinthians' souls (2 Cor 12:15). James warns that selfish desires lead to spending on pleasures (Jas 4:3). Spanish 'gastar' and French 'depenser' mirror the full range from wasteful consumption to sacrificial outpouring.
Senses
1. sense 1 — To spend or expend money, resources, or oneself. The word covers a spectrum: futile medical expenditure (Mark 5:26, the woman who spent all she had), profligate squandering (Luke 15:14, the prodigal), practical financial support (Acts 21:24, paying Nazirite expenses), sacrificial self-giving (2 Cor 12:15, where Paul pairs the active 'I will spend' with the passive 'be spent' to express total devotion), and self-indulgent consumption (Jas 4:3). Context determines whether the spending is wise, wasteful, or heroically generous. 5×
