Plēroō means to fill something — a container, a span of time, a promise. Matthew uses it more than a dozen times to declare that what Jesus does fulfills what Scripture had foretold.

It also describes spiritual fullness: be “filled (plērousthe) with the Spirit,” a “joy that is full,” a peace that fills. In Jesus, God fills up what had been only outlined and answers what had only been waited for.
