What does succor mean in a biblical context?

Answered in 1 source

In a biblical context, succor refers to the help and support offered by Christ to those who are tempted.

The term 'succor' signifies the act of providing assistance or support, especially in times of distress or need. In Hebrews 2:18, it is used to describe Christ's role in helping those who are tempted. This word emphasizes that our Savior is not an uninvolved deity; rather, He is intimately aware of our struggles and is ready to assist us. The promise that He helps those who call upon Him brings comfort, as it assures believers that they are not alone in their trials. Christ's compassion and readiness to deliver serve as a vital source of strength and encouragement for all who face temptation.
