ῥιζ-όω G4492
to be rooted, firmly planted, or established with deep roots
A verb (passive/middle perfect participle) meaning to have taken root or be firmly established. In Ephesians 3:17, Paul prays that believers be rooted and grounded in love. In Colossians 2:7, he urges them to be rooted and built up in Christ. Both uses are agricultural/architectural metaphors for spiritual stability. The perfect tense emphasizes an established state—believers are to have deep roots that sustain growth and withstand storms.

1. sense 1 — The glosses ('having been rooted,' 'arraigados,' 'verwurzelt') convey the established state.

Both passages use the imagery of deep roots to depict spiritual maturity and stability—believers draw nourishment and strength from their anchoring in love and in Christ. 2×
