Submission and Obedience Submit- The biblical word submit comes from the Greek word hupeiko which means to yield: to passively surrender to an authority. Submission is similar to obedience but in this case one might question what is being commanded. Submission voluntary! Obey- the biblical word obey comes from the Greek word hupakouwhich means to listen attentively; by implication to heed or conform to authority. This word conveys the idea of actively following a command. There is no choice in the matter it is to be done whether one agreed with it or not. Obedience is involuntary.
