1263 diamartýromai (from 1223 /diá, "thoroughly" and 3143 /martýromai, "witness, testify") – properly, thoroughly bear witness; to give solemn, earnest testimony (note the intensifying prefix, 1223 /diá). 1263 (diamartýromai) is an intensified compound for "giving full, clear testimony" (WS, 273).
[1263 (diamartýromai) is always in the Greek middle voice which emphasizes witnessing done with a high level of self-involvement, i.e. with strong personal interest motivating it.]
