to correspond to, to stand for, to be a figure of, to represent to correspond to something else in certain significant features In a number of languages συστοιχέω in a context such as GAL 4:25 may be best rendered as ‘points to’ or ‘is really talking about,’ so that one may render this expression in GAL 4:25 as ‘Mount Sinai ... really points to the present Jerusalem’ or ‘Hagar ... really points to the present Jerusalem.’ The full form of GAL 4:25 may be rendered as ‘Hagar, who stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia, represents the present Jerusalem.’
