Below are articles from the following dictionary:
Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Verb Strong's Number: g4902 Greek: sunepomai

Accompany:

lit., "to follow with" (sun, "with," hepomai, "to follow"), hence came to mean simply "to accompany," Act 20:4.

2 Verb Strong's Number: g4905 Greek: sunerchomai

Accompany:

chiefly used of "assembling together," signifies "to accompany," in Luk 23:55; Jhn 11:33; Act 9:39; 10:45; 11:12; 15:38; 21:16. In Act 1:21 it is said of men who had "companied with" the Apostles all the time the Lord Jesus was with them.
See ASSEMBLE, COME, COMPANY, GO, RESORT.

3 Verb Strong's Number: g2192 Greek: echo

Accompany:

"to have," is rendered "accompany," in Hbr 6:9, "things that accompany salvation." The margin gives perhaps the better sense, "things that are near to salvation."

4 Verb Strong's Number: g4311 Greek: propempo

Accompany:

translated "accompanied," in Act 20:38, AV, lit. means "to send forward;" hence, of assisting a person on a journey either

(a) in the sense of fitting him out with the requisites for it, or

(b) actually "accompanying" him for part of the way. The former seems to be indicated in Rom 15:24; 1Cr 16:6, and 1 Cor.16:11, where the RV has "set him forward." So in 2Cr 1:16; and Tts 3:13, and of John's exhortation to Gaius concerning traveling evangelists, "whom thou wilt do well to set forward on their journey worthily of God," 3Jo 1:6, RV. While personal "accompaniment" is not excluded, practical assistance seems to be generally in view, as indicated by Paul's word to Titus to set forward Zenas and Apollos on their journey and to see "that nothing be wanting unto them." In regard to the parting of Paul from the elders of Ephesus at Miletus, personal "accompaniment" is especially in view, perhaps not without the suggestion of assistance, Act 20:38, RV "brought him on his way;" "accompaniment" is also indicated in Act 21:5; "they all with wives and children brought us on our way, till we were out of the city." In Act 15:3, both ideas perhaps are suggested.
See BRING, CONDUCT.
