topic: Wake
definition:
<b>Wake</b> <1,,1127, gregoreo><p/> translated "wake" in <a href='B:590 5:10'>1Th 5:10</a>, is rendered "watch" in the RV marg., as in the text in <a href='B:590 5:6'>1Th 5:6</a>, and the RV in the twenty-one other places in which it occurs in the NT (save <a href='B:670 5:8'>1Pe 5:8</a>, "be watchful"). It is not used in the metaphorical sense of "to be alive;" here it is set in contrast with katheudo, "to sleep," which is never used by the Apostle with the meaning "to be dead" (it has this meaning only in the case of Jairus' daughter). Accordingly the meaning here is that of vigilance and expectancy as contrasted with laxity and indifference. All believers will live together with Christ from the time of the Rapture described in ch. 4; for all have spiritual life now, though their spiritual condition and attainment vary considerably. Those who are lax and fail to be watchful will suffer loss (<a href='B:530 3:15'>1Co 3:15</a>, <a href='B:530 9:27'>1Co 9:27</a>, <a href='B:540 5:10'>2Co 5:10</a>, e.g.), but the Apostle is not here dealing with that aspect of the subject. What he does make clear is that the Rapture of believers at the second coming of Christ will depend solely on the death of Christ for them, and not upon their spiritual condition. The Rapture is not a matter of reward, but of salvation. See WATCH.

topic: Water (Noun and Verb) Watering, Waterless
definition:
<b>Water (Noun and Verb) Watering, Waterless</b> <A-1,Noun,5204, hudor><p/> whence Eng. prefix, "hydro-," is used (a) of the natural element, frequently in the Gospels; in the plural especially in the Apocalypse; elsewhere, e.g., <a href='B:650 9:19'>Heb 9:19</a>, <a href='B:660 3:12'>Jam 3:12</a>; in <a href='B:690 5:6'>1Jo 5:6</a>, that Christ "came by water and blood," may refer either (1) to the elements that flowed from His side on the Cross after His Death, or, in view of the order of the words and the prepositions here used, (2) to His baptism in Jordan and His Death on the Cross. As to (1), the "water" would symbolize the moral and practical cleansing effected by the removal of defilement by our taking heed to the Word of God in heart, life and habit; cp. Lev. 14, as to the cleansing of the leper. As to (2), Jesus the Son of God came on His mission by, or through, "water" and blood, namely, at His baptism, when He publicly entered upon His mission and was declared to be the Son of God by the witness of the Father, and at the Cross, when He publicly closed His witness; the Apostle's statement thus counteracts the doctrine of the Gnostics that the Divine Logos united Himself with the Man Jesus at His baptism, and left him at Gethsemane. On the contrary, He who was baptized and He who was crucified was the Son of God throughout in His combined Deity and humanity. <p/> The word "water" is used symbolically in <a href='B:500 3:5'>Joh 3:5</a>, either (1) of the Word of God, as in <a href='B:670 1:23'>1Pe 1:23</a> (cp. the symbolic use in <a href='B:560 5:26'>Eph 5:26</a>), or, in view of the preposition ek, "out of," (2) of the truth conveyed by baptism, this being the expression, not the medium, the symbol, not the cause, of the believer's identification with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection. So the New Birth is, in one sense, the setting aside of all that the believer was according to the flesh, for it is evident that there must be an entirely new beginning. Some regard the kai, "and," in <a href='B:500 3:5'>Joh 3:5</a>, as epexegetic, : "even," in which case the "water" would be emblematic of the Spirit, as in <a href='B:500 7:38'>Joh 7:38</a> (cp. <a href='B:500 4:10'>Joh 4:10</a>, <a href='B:500 4:14'>Joh 4:14</a>), but not in <a href='B:690 5:8'>1Jo 5:8</a>, where the Spirit and the "water" are distinguished. "The water of life," <a href='B:730 21:6'>Rev 21:6</a>, <a href='B:730 22:1'>Rev 22:1</a>, <a href='B:730 22:17'>Rev 22:17</a>, is emblematic of the maintenance of spiritual life in perpetuity. In <a href='B:730 17:1'>Rev 17:1</a> the "waters" are symbolic of nations, peoples, etc. <p/> Note: For potamos, rendered "waters" in <a href='B:540 11:26'>2Co 11:26</a>, see RIVER. <p/> <B-1,Verb,4222, potizo><p/> "to give to drink," is used (a) naturally in <a href='B:490 13:15'>Luk 13:15</a>, "watering," with reference to animals; (b) figuratively, with reference to spiritual ministry to converts, <a href='B:530 1:3-8'>1Co 1:3-8</a>. See DRINK, B, No. 3. <p/> Notes: (1) For hudropoteo, "to drink water," <a href='B:610 5:23'>1Ti 5:23</a>, see DRINK, B, No. 5.

<b>Woman</b> <1,,1135, gune><p/> for which see also WIFE, is used of a "woman" unmarried or married, e.g., <a href='B:470 11:11'>Mat 11:11</a>, <a href='B:470 14:21'>Mat 14:21</a>, <a href='B:490 4:26'>Luk 4:26</a>, of a "widow;" <a href='B:520 7:2'>Rom 7:2</a>; in the vocative case, used in addressing a "woman," it is a term not of reproof or severity, but of endearment or respect, <a href='B:470 15:28'>Mat 15:28</a>, <a href='B:500 2:4'>Joh 2:4</a>, where the Lord's words to His mother at the wedding in Cana, are neither rebuff nor rebuke. The question is, lit., "What to Me and to thee?" and the word "woman," the term of endearment, follows this. The meaning is "There is no obligation on Me or you, but love will supply the need." She confides in Him, He responds to her faith. There was lovingkindness in both hearts. His next words about "His hour" suit this; they were not unfamiliar to her. Cana is in the path to Calvary; Calvary was not yet, but it made the beginning of signs possible. See also <a href='B:500 4:21'>Joh 4:21</a>, <a href='B:500 19:26'>Joh 19:26</a>. <p/> In <a href='B:550 4:4'>Gal 4:4</a> the phrase "born of a woman" is in accordance with the subject there, viz., the real humanity of the Lord Jesus; this the words attest. They declare the method of His Incarnation and "suggest the means whereby that humanity was made free from the taint of sin consequent upon the Fall, viz., that He was not born through the natural process of ordinary generation, but was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit ... To have written 'born of a virgin' would have carried the argument in a wrong direction ... Since that man is born of woman is a universal fact, the statement would be superfluous if the Lord Jesus were no more than man" (Notes on Galatians, by Hogg and Vine, pp. 184f.). <p/> <2,,1133, gunaikarion><p/> a diminutive of No. 1, a "little woman," is used contemptuously in <a href='B:620 3:6'>2Ti 3:6</a>, "a silly woman." <p/> <3,,4245, presbuteros><p/> "elder, older," in the feminine plural, denotes "elder women" in <a href='B:610 5:2'>1Ti 5:2</a>.

topic: Word
definition:
<b>Word</b> <1,,3056, logos><p/> denotes (I) "the expression of thought," not the mere name of an object, (a) as embodying a conception or idea, e.g., <a href='B:490 7:7'>Luk 7:7</a>, <a href='B:530 14:9'>1Co 14:9</a>,<a href='B:530 14:19'>1Co 14:19</a>; (b) a saying or statement, (1) by God, e.g., <a href='B:500 15:25'>Joh 15:25</a>, <a href='B:520 9:9'>Rom 9:9</a>, <a href='B:520 9:28'>Rom 9:28</a>, RV, "word" (AV, "work"); <a href='B:550 5:14'>Gal 5:14</a>, <a href='B:650 4:12'>Heb 4:12</a>; (2) by Christ, e.g., <a href='B:470 24:35'>Mat 24:35</a> (plur.); <a href='B:500 2:22'>Joh 2:22</a>, <a href='B:500 4:41'>Joh 4:41</a>, <a href='B:500 14:23'>Joh 14:23</a> (plur.); <a href='B:500 15:20'>Joh 15:20</a>. In connection with (1) and (2) the phrase "the word of the Lord," i.e., the revealed will of God (very frequent in the OT), is used of a direct revelation given by Christ, <a href='B:590 4:15'>1Th 4:15</a>; of the gospel, <a href='B:510 8:25'>Act 8:25</a>, <a href='B:510 13:49'>Act 13:49</a>, <a href='B:510 1:15-36'>Act 1:15-36</a>, <a href='B:510 16:32'>Act 16:32</a>, <a href='B:510 19:10'>Act 19:10</a>, <a href='B:590 1:8'>1Th 1:8</a>, <a href='B:600 3:1'>2Th 3:1</a>; in this respect it is the message from the Lord, delivered with His authority and made effective by His power (cp. <a href='B:510 10:36'>Act 10:36</a>); for other instances relating to the gospel see <a href='B:510 13:26'>Act 13:26</a>, <a href='B:510 14:3'>Act 14:3</a>, <a href='B:510 15:7'>Act 15:7</a>, <a href='B:530 1:18'>1Co 1:18</a>, RV;

sometimes it is used as the sum of God's utterances, e.g., <a href='B:480 7:13'>Mar 7:13</a>, <a href='B:500 10:35'>Joh 10:35</a>, <a href='B:730 1:2'>Rev 1:2</a>,<a href='B:730 1:9'>Rev 1:9</a>; (c) discourse, speech, of instruction, etc., e.g., <a href='B:510 2:40'>Act 2:40</a>, <a href='B:530 2:13'>1Co 2:13</a>, <a href='B:530 12:8'>1Co 12:8</a>, <a href='B:540 1:18'>2Co 1:18</a>, <a href='B:590 1:5'>1Th 1:5</a>, <a href='B:600 2:15'>2Th 2:15</a>, <a href='B:650 6:1'>Heb 6:1</a>, RV, marg.; doctrine, e.g., <a href='B:470 13:20'>Mat 13:20</a>, <a href='B:580 3:16'>Col 3:16</a>, <a href='B:610 4:6'>1Ti 4:6</a>, <a href='B:620 1:13'>2Ti 1:13</a>, <a href='B:630 1:9'>Tit 1:9</a>, <a href='B:690 2:7'>1Jo 2:7</a>; <p/> (II) "The Personal Word," a title of the Son of God; this identification is substantiated by the statements of doctrine in <a href='B:500 1:1-18'>Joh 1:1-18</a>, declaring in verses <a href='B:500 1:1-2'>Joh 1:1-2</a> (1) His distinct and superfinite Personality, (2) His relation in the Godhead (pros, "with," not mere company, but the most intimate communion), (3) His deity; in <a href='B:500 1:3'>Joh 1:3</a> His creative power; in <a href='B:500 1:14'>Joh 1:14</a> His incarnation ("became flesh," expressing His voluntary act; not as AV, "was made"), the reality and totality of His human nature, and His glory "as of the only begotten from the Father," RV (marg., "an only begotten from a father"), the absence of the article in each place lending stress to the nature and character of the relationship; His was the shekinah glory in open manifestation; <a href='B:500 1:18'>Joh 1:18</a> consummates the identification: "the only-begotten Son (RV marg., many ancient authorities read "God only begotten,"), which is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him," thus fulfilling the significance of the title "Logos," the "Word," the personal manifestation, not of a part of the Divine nature, but of the whole Deity (see IMAGE). <p/> The title is used also in <a href='B:690 1:1'>1Jo 1:1</a>, "the Word of life" combining the two declarations in <a href='B:500 1:1'>Joh 1:1</a>,<a href='B:500 1:4'>Joh 1:4</a> and <a href='B:730 19:13'>Rev 19:13</a> (for <a href='B:690 5:7'>1Jo 5:7</a> see THREE). <p/> <2,,4487, rhema><p/> denotes "that which is spoken, what is uttered in speech or writing;" in the singular, "a word," e.g., <a href='B:470 12:36'>Mat 12:36</a>, <a href='B:470 27:14'>Mat 27:14</a>, <a href='B:540 12:4'>2Co 12:4</a>, <a href='B:540 13:1'>2Co 13:1</a>, <a href='B:650 12:19'>Heb 12:19</a>; in the plural, speech, discourse, e.g., <a href='B:500 3:34'>Joh 3:34</a>, <a href='B:500 8:20'>Joh 8:20</a>, <a href='B:510 2:14'>Act 2:14</a>, <a href='B:510 6:11'>Act 6:11</a>,<a href='B:510 6:13'>Act 6:13</a>, <a href='B:510 11:14'>Act 11:14</a>, <a href='B:510 13:42'>Act 13:42</a>, <a href='B:510 26:25'>Act 26:25</a>, <a href='B:520 10:18'>Rom 10:18</a>, <a href='B:680 3:2'>2Pe 3:2</a>, <a href='B:720 1:17'>Jud 1:17</a>; it is used of the Gospel in <a href='B:520 10:8'>Rom 10:8</a> (twice), <a href='B:520 10:17'>Rom 10:17</a>, RV, "the word of Christ" (i.e., the "word" which preaches Christ); <a href='B:520 10:18'>Rom 10:18</a>, <a href='B:670 1:25'>1Pe 1:25</a> (twice); of a statement, command, instruction, e.g., <a href='B:470 26:75'>Mat 26:75</a>, <a href='B:490 1:37'>Luk 1:37</a>, RV, "(no) word (from God shall be void of power);" <a href='B:490 1:38'>Luk 1:38</a>, <a href='B:510 11:16'>Act 11:16</a>, <a href='B:650 11:3'>Heb 11:3</a>. <p/> The significance of rhema (as distinct from logos) is exemplified in the injunction to take "the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God," <a href='B:560 6:17'>Eph 6:17</a>; here the reference is not to the whole Bible as such, but to the individual scripture which the Spirit brings to our remembrance for use in time of need, a prerequisite being the regular storing of the mind with Scripture. <p/> Notes: (1) Epos, "a word," is used in a phrase in <a href='B:650 7:9'>Heb 7:9</a>, lit., "(as to say) a word," RV, "(so to) say," AV, "(as I may so) say;" logos is reasoned speech, rhema, an utterance, epos, "the articulated expression of a thought" (Abbott-Smith). (2) In <a href='B:520 16:18'>Rom 16:18</a>, AV, chrestologia, "useful discourse" (chrestos, "beneficial"), is rendered "good words" [RV, "smooth ... (speech)"]. (3) For logikos, <a href='B:670 2:2'>1Pe 2:2</a> (RV, "spiritual"), rendered "of the word," AV, see MILK. (4) For the verb apangello, rendered "to bring word," see BRING, No. 36. (5) In <a href='B:470 2:13'>Mat 2:13</a>, AV, eipon, "to tell" (RV) is rendered "bring ... word." (6) For "enticing words," <a href='B:580 2:4'>Col 2:4</a>, see ENTICE and PERSUASIVENESS.

The Note to <a href='B:500 9:38'>Joh 9:38</a> in the American Standard Version in this connection is most unsound; it implies that Christ was a creature. J. N.

(2) In <a href='B:510 17:25'>Act 17:25</a> therapeuo, "to serve, do service to" (so RV), is rendered "is worshiped."

topic: Write, Wrote, Written
definition:
<b>Write, Wrote, Written</b> <A-1,Verb,1125, grapho><p/> is used (a) of "forming letters" on a surface or writing material, <a href='B:500 8:6'>Joh 8:6</a>, <a href='B:550 6:11'>Gal 6:11</a>, where the Apostle speaks of his having "written" with large letters in his own hand, which not improbably means that at this point he took the pen from his amanuensis and finished the Epistle himself; this is not negatived by the fact that the verb is in the aorist or past definite tense, lit., "I wrote," for in Greek idiom the writer of a letter put himself beside the reader and spoke of it as having been "written" in the past; in Eng. we should say "I am writing," taking our point of view from the time at which we are doing it; cp. <a href='B:640 1:19'>Phm 1:19</a> (this Ep. is undoubtedly a holograph), where again the equivalent English translation is in the present tense (see also <a href='B:510 15:23'>Act 15:23</a>, <a href='B:520 15:15'>Rom 15:15</a>); possibly the Apostle, in Galatians, was referring to his having "written" the body of the Epistle but the former alternative seems the more likely; in <a href='B:600 3:17'>2Th 3:17</a> he says that the closing salutation is written by his own hand and speaks of it as "the token in every Epistle" which some understand as a purpose for the future rather than a custom; see, however, <a href='B:530 16:21'>1Co 16:21</a>, <a href='B:580 4:18'>Col 4:18</a>. The absence of the token from the other Epistles of Paul can be explained differently, their authenticity not being dependent upon this; (b) "to commit to writing, to record," e.g., <a href='B:490 1:63'>Luk 1:63</a>, <a href='B:500 1:19-22'>Joh 1:19-22</a>; it is used of Scripture as a standing authority, "it is written," e.g., <a href='B:480 1:2'>Mar 1:2</a>, <a href='B:520 1:17'>Rom 1:17</a> (cp. <a href='B:540 4:13'>2Co 4:13</a>); (c) of "writing directions or giving information," e.g., <a href='B:520 10:5'>Rom 10:5</a>, "(Moses) writeth," RV (AV, "describeth"); <a href='B:520 15:15'>Rom 15:15</a>, <a href='B:540 7:12'>2Co 7:12</a>; (d) of "that which contained a record or message," e.g., <a href='B:480 1:10-5'>Mar 1:10-5</a>, <a href='B:500 19:19'>Joh 19:19</a>, <a href='B:500 21:25'>Joh 21:25</a>, <a href='B:510 23:25'>Act 23:25</a>. <p/> <A-2,Verb,1989, epistello><p/> denotes "to send a message by letter, to write word" (stello, "to send;" Eng., "epistle"), <a href='B:510 15:20'>Act 15:20</a>, <a href='B:510 21:25'>Act 21:25</a> (some mss. have apostello, "to send"); <a href='B:650 13:22'>Heb 13:22</a>. <p/> <A-3,Verb,4270, prographo><p/> denotes "to write before," <a href='B:520 15:4'>Rom 15:4</a> (in the best texts; some have grapho); <a href='B:560 3:3'>Eph 3:3</a>.

topic: Ye, You, Yourselves, Your own selves
definition:
<b>Ye, You, Yourselves, Your own selves</b> * Notes: (1) These are most frequently the translations of various inflections of a verb; sometimes of the article before a nominative used as a vocative, e.g., <a href='B:730 18:20'>Rev 18:20</a>, "ye saints, and ye apostles, and ye prophets" (lit., "the saints, etc"). When the 2nd person plural pronouns are used separately from a verb, they are usually one or other of the forms of humeis, the plural of su, "thou," and are frequently emphatic, especially when they are subjects of the verb, an emphasis always to be noticed, e.g., <a href='B:470 1:5-14'>Mat 1:5-14</a>, <a href='B:470 5:48'>Mat 5:48</a>, <a href='B:470 6:9'>Mat 6:9</a>, <a href='B:470 1:6-20'>Mat 1:6-20</a>, <a href='B:480 6:31'>Mar 6:31</a>, <a href='B:480 6:37'>Mar 6:37</a>, <a href='B:500 15:27'>Joh 15:27</a> (1st part); <a href='B:520 1:6'>Rom 1:6</a>, <a href='B:530 3:17'>1Co 3:17</a>, <a href='B:530 3:23'>1Co 3:23</a>, <a href='B:550 1:3-29'>Gal 1:3-29</a> (1st part); <a href='B:560 1:13'>Eph 1:13</a> (1st part); <a href='B:560 2:8'>Eph 2:8</a>, <a href='B:560 2:11'>Eph 2:11</a>, <a href='B:560 2:13'>Eph 2:13</a>, <a href='B:570 2:18'>Phi 2:18</a>, <a href='B:580 3:4'>Col 3:4</a>, <a href='B:580 3:7'>Col 3:7</a> (1st part); <a href='B:580 4:1'>Col 4:1</a>, <a href='B:590 1:6'>1Th 1:6</a>, <a href='B:590 2:10'>1Th 2:10</a>, <a href='B:590 1:2-20'>1Th 1:2-20</a>, <a href='B:590 3:8'>1Th 3:8</a>, <a href='B:600 3:13'>2Th 3:13</a>, <a href='B:660 5:8'>Jam 5:8</a>, <a href='B:670 2:9'>1Pe 2:9</a> (1st part); <a href='B:690 2:20'>1Jo 2:20</a>, <a href='B:690 2:24'>1Jo 2:24</a> (1st and 3rd occurrences), <a href='B:690 2:27'>1Jo 2:27</a> (1st part); <a href='B:690 4:4'>1Jo 4:4</a>, <a href='B:720 1:17'>Jud 1:17</a>, <a href='B:720 1:20'>Jud 1:20</a>. (2) The addition of autoi, "yourselves," to the pronoun marks especial emphasis, e.g., <a href='B:480 6:31'>Mar 6:31</a>, <a href='B:500 3:28'>Joh 3:28</a>, <a href='B:530 11:13'>1Co 11:13</a>, <a href='B:590 4:9'>1Th 4:9</a>. Sometimes autoi is used without the pronoun, e.g., <a href='B:490 11:46'>Luk 11:46</a>, <a href='B:490 11:52'>Luk 11:52</a>, <a href='B:510 2:22'>Act 2:22</a>, <a href='B:510 20:34'>Act 20:34</a>, <a href='B:590 2:1'>1Th 2:1</a>, <a href='B:590 3:3'>1Th 3:3</a>, <a href='B:590 5:2'>1Th 5:2</a>, <a href='B:600 3:7'>2Th 3:7</a>, <a href='B:650 13:3'>Heb 13:3</a>. (3) The reflexive pronoun "yourselves" represents the various plural forms of the reflexive pronoun heautou (frequently governed by some preposition), e.g., <a href='B:470 3:9'>Mat 3:9</a>, <a href='B:470 16:8'>Mat 16:8</a>, <a href='B:470 23:31'>Mat 23:31</a>, <a href='B:470 25:9'>Mat 25:9</a>, <a href='B:480 9:50'>Mar 9:50</a>, <a href='B:490 3:8'>Luk 3:8</a>, <a href='B:490 12:33'>Luk 12:33</a>, <a href='B:490 12:57'>Luk 12:57</a>, <a href='B:490 16:9'>Luk 16:9</a>, <a href='B:490 21:30'>Luk 21:30</a>, "of your own selves;" <a href='B:490 21:34'>Luk 21:34</a>, <a href='B:510 5:35'>Act 5:35</a>; in <a href='B:520 11:25'>Rom 11:25</a>, "in your own (conceits)," lit., "in (en; some texts have para, 'among') yourselves;" so <a href='B:520 12:16'>Rom 12:16</a> (with para); <a href='B:670 4:8'>1Pe 4:8</a>, <a href='B:720 1:1-21'>Jud 1:1-21</a>; in <a href='B:560 5:19'>Eph 5:19</a>, RV, "one to another" (AV, and RV marg., "to yourselves"). <p/> Note: In <a href='B:590 5:11'>1Th 5:11</a>, AV, allelous, "one another" (RV), is rendered "yourselves together."

<b>Year</b> <A-1,Noun,2094, etos><p/> is used (a) to mark a point of time at or from which events take place, e.g., <a href='B:490 3:1'>Luk 3:1</a> (dates were frequently reckoned from the time when a monarch began to reign); in <a href='B:550 3:17'>Gal 3:17</a> the time of the giving of the Law is stated as 430 "years" after the covenant of promise given to Abraham; there is no real discrepancy between this and <a href='B:20 12:40'>Exo 12:40</a>; the Apostle is not concerned with the exact duration of the interval; it certainly was not less than 430 "years;" the point of the argument is that the period was very considerable; <a href='B:550 1:18'>Gal 1:18</a>, <a href='B:550 2:1'>Gal 2:1</a> mark events in Paul's life; as to the former the point is that three "years" elapsed before he saw any of the Apostles; in <a href='B:550 2:1'>Gal 2:1</a> the 14 "years" may date either from his conversion or from his visit to Peter mentioned in <a href='B:550 1:18'>Gal 1:18</a>; the latter seems the more natural (for a full discussion of the subject see Notes on Galatians by Hogg and Vine, pp. 55ff.); (b) to mark a space of time, e.g., <a href='B:470 9:20'>Mat 9:20</a>, <a href='B:490 12:19'>Luk 12:19</a>, <a href='B:490 13:11'>Luk 13:11</a>, <a href='B:500 2:20'>Joh 2:20</a>, <a href='B:510 7:6'>Act 7:6</a>, where the 400 "years" mark not merely the time that Israel was in bondage in Egypt, but the time that they sojourned or were strangers there (the RV puts a comma after the word "evil"); the Genevan Version renders <a href='B:10 15:13'>Gen 15:13</a> "thy posterity shall inhabit a strange land for 400 years;" <a href='B:650 3:17'>Heb 3:17</a>, <a href='B:730 1:20-7'>Rev 1:20-7</a>; (c) to date an event from one's birth, e.g., <a href='B:480 5:42'>Mar 5:42</a>, <a href='B:490 2:42'>Luk 2:42</a>, <a href='B:490 3:23'>Luk 3:23</a>, <a href='B:500 8:57'>Joh 8:57</a>, <a href='B:510 4:22'>Act 4:22</a>, <a href='B:610 5:9'>1Ti 5:9</a>; (d) to mark recurring events, <a href='B:490 2:41'>Luk 2:41</a> (with kata, used distributively); <a href='B:490 13:7'>Luk 13:7</a>; (e) of an unlimited number, <a href='B:650 1:12'>Heb 1:12</a>. <p/> <A-2,Noun,1763, eniautos><p/> originally "a cycle of time," is used (a) of a particular time marked by an event, e.g., <a href='B:490 4:19'>Luk 4:19</a>, <a href='B:500 11:49'>Joh 11:49</a>, <a href='B:500 11:51'>Joh 11:51</a>, <a href='B:500 18:13'>Joh 18:13</a>, <a href='B:550 4:10'>Gal 4:10</a>, <a href='B:730 9:15'>Rev 9:15</a>; (b) to mark a space of time, <a href='B:510 11:26'>Act 11:26</a>, <a href='B:510 18:11'>Act 18:11</a>, <a href='B:660 4:13'>Jam 4:13</a>, <a href='B:660 5:17'>Jam 5:17</a>; (c) of that which takes place every year, <a href='B:650 9:7'>Heb 9:7</a>; with kata [cp.

definition:
<b>Zealous</b> <A-1,Noun,2207, zelotes><p/> is used adjectivally, of "being zealous" (a) "of the Law," <a href='B:510 21:20'>Act 21:20</a>; (b) "toward God," lit., "of God," <a href='B:510 22:3'>Act 22:3</a>, RV, "for God;" (c) "of spiritual gifts," <a href='B:530 14:12'>1Co 14:12</a>, i.e., for exercise of spiritual gifts (lit., "of spirits," but not to be interpreted literally); (d) "for (AV, 'of') the traditions of my fathers," <a href='B:550 1:14'>Gal 1:14</a>, of Paul's loyalty to Judaism before his conversion; (e) "of good works," <a href='B:630 2:14'>Tit 2:14</a>. <p/> The word is, lit., "a zealot," i.e., "an uncompromising partisan." The "Zealots" was a name applied to an extreme section of the Pharisees, bitterly antagonistic to the Romans. Josephus (Antiq. xviii. 1. 1, 6; B.J. ii. 8. 1) refers to them as the "fourth sect of Jewish philosphy" (i.e., in addition to the Pharisees, Sadducees, and Essenes), founded by Judas of Galilee (cp. <a href='B:510 5:37'>Act 5:37</a>). After his rebellion in A.D. 6, the Zealots nursed the fires of revolt, which, bursting out afresh in A.D. 66, led to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70. To this sect Simon, one of the Apostles, had belonged, <a href='B:490 6:15'>Luk 6:15</a>, <a href='B:510 1:13'>Act 1:13</a>. The equivalent Hebrew and Aramaic term was "Cananean" (<a href='B:470 10:4'>Mat 10:4</a>); this is not connected with Canaan, as the AV "Canaanite" would suggest, but is derived from Heb. quanna, "jealous." <p/> <B-1,Verb,2206, zeloo><p/> "to be jealous," also signifies "to seek or desire eagerly;" in <a href='B:550 4:17'>Gal 4:17</a>, RV, "they zealously seek (you)," in the sense of taking a very warm interest in; so in <a href='B:550 4:18'>Gal 4:18</a>, Passive Voice, "to be zealously sought" (AV, "to be zealously affected"), i.e., to be the object of warm interest on the part of others; some texts have this verb in <a href='B:730 3:19'>Rev 3:19</a> (see No. 2). See AFFECT, Note, COVET, DESIRE, ENVY, JEALOUS. <p/> <B-2,Verb,2206, zeleuo><p/> a late and rare form of No. 1, is found in the best texts in <a href='B:730 3:19'>Rev 3:19</a>, "be zealous." <p/> Note: For spoudazo, <a href='B:550 2:10'>Gal 2:10</a>, RV, see DILIGENT, B, No. 1.
