\Helmet\
<1,,4030,perikephalaia>
from peri, "around," and kephale, "a head," is used figuratively
in Eph. 6:17, with reference to salvation, and 1 Thess. 5:8,
where it is described as "the hope of salvation." The head is
not to be regarded here as standing for the seat of the
intellect; the word is not so used elsewhere in Scripture. In
Eph. 6:17 salvation is a present experience of the Lord's
deliverance of believers as those who are engaged in spiritual
conflict; in 1 Thess. 5:8, the hope is that of the Lord's
return, which encourages the believer to resist the spirit of
the age in which he lives.
$$T0001351
\Help, Holpen\
<A-1,Noun,484,antilepsis | antilempsis>
properly signifies "a laying hold of, an exchange" (anti, "in
exchange," or, in its local sense, "in front," and lambano, "to
take, lay hold of," so as to support); then, "a help" (akin to
B, No. 1); it is mentioned in 1 Cor. 12:28, as one of the
ministrations in the local church, by way of rendering
assistance, perhaps especially of "help" ministered to the weak
and needy. So Theophylact defines the injunction in 1 Thess.
5:14, "support the weak;" cp. Acts 20:35; not official
functionaries are in view in the term "helps," but rather the
functioning of those who, like the household of Stephanas,
devote themselves to minister to the saints. Hort defines the
ministration as "anything that would be done for poor or weak or
outcast brethren."
<A-2,Noun,996,boetheia>
from boe, "a shout," and theo, "to run," denotes "help,
succour," Heb. 4:16, lit., "(grace) unto (timely) help;" in Acts
27:17, where the plural is used, the term is nautical,
"frapping."
<A-3,Noun,1947,epikouria>
strictly denotes such aid as is rendered by an epikouros, "an
ally, an auxiliary;" Paul uses it in his testimony to Agrippa,
"having therefore obtained the help that is from God," Acts
26:22, RV.
<B-1,Verb,482,antilambano>
lit., "to take instead of, or in turn" (akin to A, No. 1), is
used in the Middle Voice, and rendered "He hath holpen" in Luke
1:54; "to help," RV, "to support," AV, in Acts 20:35; its other
meaning, to partake of, is used of partaking of things, 1 Tim.
6:2, "that partake of," for AV, "partakers of." See PARTAKE,
SUPPORT.
<B-2,Verb,4815,sullambano>
"to assist, take part with" (sun, "with," and lambano), is used,
in the Middle Voice, of rendering help in what others are doing,
Luke 5:7, of bringing in a catch of fish; in Phil. 4:3, in an
appeal to Synzygus ("yokefellow") to help Euodia and Syntyche
(ver. 2). See CATCH, CONCEIVE.
<B-3,Verb,4878,sunantilambano>
signifies "to take hold with at the side for assistance" (sun,
"with," and No. 1); hence, "to take a share in, help in bearing,
to help in general." It is used, in the Middle Voice, in
Martha's request to the Lord to bid her sister help her, Luke
10:40; and of the ministry of the Holy Spirit in helping our
infirmities, Rom. 8:26. In the Sept., Exod. 18:22; Num. 11:17;
Ps. 89.21.
<B-4,Verb,997,boetheo>
"to come to the aid of anyone, to succour" (akin to A, No. 2),
is used in Matt. 15:25; Mark 9:22,24; Acts 16:9; 21:28; 2 Cor.
6:2, "did I succour;" Heb. 2:18, "to succour;" Rev. 12:16.
<B-5,Verb,4820,sumballo>
lit., "to throw together" (sun, "with," ballo, "to throw"), is
used in the Middle Voice in Acts 18:27, of helping or benefiting
believers by discussion or ministry of the Word of God. See
CONFER, ENCOUNTER, MAKE (war), MEET, PONDER.
<B-6,Verb,4943,sunupourgeo>
denotes "to help together, join in helping, to serve with anyone
as an underworker" (sun, "with," hupourgeo, "to serve;" hupo,
"under," ergon, "work"); it is used in 2 Cor. 1:11.
<B-7,Verb,4903,sunergeo>
"to help in work, to co-operate, be a co-worker," is rendered
"that helpeth with" in 1 Cor. 16:16. See WORK.
Note: Paristemi, "to place beside" (para, "by," histemi,
"to cause to stand"), "to stand by, be at hand," is used of
"standing" up for help," in Rom. 16:2, "that ye assist," and 2
Tim. 4:17, "stood with." See BRING, COME, COMMEND, GIVE,
PRESENT, PROVE, PROVIDE, SHEW, STAND, YIELD.
$$T0001352
\Helper, Fellow-helper\
<1,,998,boethos>
an adjective, akin to A, No. 2, and B, No. 4, under HELP,

worker;" in 2 Cor. 1:24, AV and RV, "helper;" in 2 Cor. 8:23,

akin to No. 1, is used (a) of place, "hence," or "from hence,"
Luke 4:9; 13:31; John 2:16; 7:3; 14:31; 18:36; in John 19:18,
"on either side (one)," lit., "hence and hence;" in Rev. 22:2;
it is contrasted with ekeithen, "thence," RV, "on this side ...
on that" (AV, "on either side"), lit. "hence ... thence;" (b)
causal; Jas. 4:1, "(come they not) hence," i.e., "owing to."
Notes: (1) For makran, "far hence," in Acts 22:21, see
FAR. (2) In Acts 1:5, the phrase "not many days hence" is, lit.,
"not after (meta) many days."

henceforth;" Rev. 14:13 (where aparti is found as one word in
the best mss.); (b) to loipon, lit., "(for) the remaining

lit., "from the now," e.g., Luke 1:48; 5:10; 12:52; Acts 18:6; 2
Cor. 5:16 (1st part); (2) negatively, "henceforth ... not" (or
"no more") translates one or other of the negative adverbs
ouketi and meketi, "no longer," e.g., Acts 4:17, AV, and RV,
"henceforth (to no man);" in the following the RV has "no
longer" for the AV, "henceforth" (with a negative), John 15:15;
Rom. 6:6; 2 Cor. 5:15; Eph. 4:17; in 2 Cor. 5:16 (last part),
RV, "no more;" in Matt. 21:19; Mark 11:14, "no (fruit ...)
henceforward;" AV in the latter, "hereafter." See HEREAFTER.

Mark 9:1; used with the neuter plural of the article, Col. 4:9,
"(all) things (that are done) here," lit., "(all) the (things)
here;" in Matt. 24:23, hode is used in both parts, hence the RV,
"Lo, here (is the Christ, or) Here;" in Mark 13:21 hode is
followed by ekei, "there." The word is used metaphorically in
the sense of "in this circumstance," or connection, in 1 Cor.
4:2; Rev. 13:10,18; 14:12; 17:9. See HITHER.
<2,,1759,enthade>
has the same meanings as No. 1; "here" in Luke 24:41; Acts

$$T0001362
\Hereafter\

"after these things," John 13:7; Rev. 1:19, and frequently in
the Apocalypse, see Rev. 4:1 (twice); 7:9; 9:12; 15:5; 18:1;
19:1; 20:3. (2) For Matt. 26:64; Luke 22:69 (AV, "hereafter")
see HENCEFORTH; for Mark 11:14 see HENCEFORWARD. (3) In John

... not"). (4) In 1 Tim. 1:16, "hereafter" translates the verb
mello, "to be about to."
$$T0001363

this," 1 Cor. 4:4; 1 John 2:3,5; 3:16,19,24; 4:2,13; 5:2 (RV,

AV, and RV marg. (2) In Heb. 5:3, AV, dia tauten, lit., "by
reason of (dia) this" (i.e., this infirmity), is rendered
"hereof;" the best texts have auten, RV, "thereof."
$$T0001366
\Heresy\
<1,,139,hairesis>
denotes (a) "a choosing, choice" (from haireomai, "to choose");
then, "that which is chosen," and hence, "an opinion,"
especially a self-willed opinion, which is substituted for
submission to the power of truth, and leads to division and the
formation of sects, Gal. 5:20 (marg., "parties"); such erroneous
opinions are frequently the outcome of personal preference or
the prospect of advantage; see 2 Pet. 2:1, where "destructive"
(RV) signifies leading to ruin; some assign even this to (b); in
the papyri the prevalent meaning is "choice" (Moulton and
Milligan, Vocab.); (b) "a sect;" this secondary meaning,
resulting from (a), is the dominating significance in the NT,
Acts 5:17; 15:5; 24:5,14; 26:5; 28:22; "heresies" in 1 Cor.
11:19 (see marg.). See SECT.
$$T0001367
\Heretical\
<1,,141,hairetikos>
akin to the above, primarily denotes "capable of choosing"
(haireomai); hence, "causing division by a party spirit,
factious," Titus 3:10, RV, "heretical."
$$T0001368
\Heretofore\
* For HERETOFORE see SIN, C, No. 2
$$T0001369
\Hereunto\
* Note: This translates the phrase eis touto, lit., "unto this,"
in 1 Pet. 2:21.
$$T0001370
\Herewith\
* For HEREWITH see TRADE, A, No. 2
$$T0001371
\Heritage\
<1,,2820,kleroo>
primarily, "to cast lots" or "to choose by lot," then, "to
assign a portion," is used in the Passive Voice in Eph. 1:11,
"we were made a heritage," RV (AV, "we have obtained an
inheritance"). The RV is in agreement with such OT passages as
Deut. 4:20, "a people of inheritance;" Deut. 9:29; 32:9; Ps.
16:6. The meaning "were chosen by lot," as in the Vulgate, and
in 1 Sam. 14:41, indicating the freedom of election without
human will (so Chrysostom and Augustine), is not suited to this
passage.
$$T0001372
\Hew, Hew down, Hewn\
<A-1,Verb,1581,ekkopto>
"to cut out or down" (ek, "out of," kopto, "to cut"), is
rendered "to hew down," of trees, Matt. 3:10; 7:19 (a similar
testimony by John the Baptist and Christ); Luke 3:9. See CUT,
HINDER.

las, "a stone," temno, "to cut"), and is used of the sepulchre
which Joseph of Arimathaea had "hewn" out of a rock for himself,
where the body of the Lord was buried, Matt. 27:60; Mark 15:46.
<B-1,Adjective,2991,laxeutos>
denotes "hewn in stone" (las, "a stone," xeo, "to scrape;" cp.
A, No. 2), is used of Christ's tomb, in Luke 23:53.
$$T0001373
\Hide, Hid, Hidden\
<A-1,Verb,2928,krupto>
"to cover, conceal, keep secret" (Eng., "crypt," "cryptic,"
etc.), is used (a) in its physical significance, e.g., Matt.
5:14; 13:44; 25:18 (some mss. have No. 2); (b) metaphorically,
e.g., Matt. 11:25 (some mss. have No. 2 here); 13:35, RV,
"(things) hidden;" AV, "(things) which have been kept secret;"
Luke 18:34; 19:42; John 19:38, "secretly." See SECRET.
<A-2,Verb,613,apokrupto>

entirely, to keep hidden" (peri, "around," used intensively, and
No. 1), Luke 1:24.
<A-5,Verb,2572,kalupto>
signifies "to cover, conceal," so that no trace of it can be
seen (hence somewhat distinct from No. 1): it is not translated
"to hide" in the RV; in 2 Cor. 4:3 it is rendered "veiled,"
suitably continuing the subject of 3:13-18; in Jas. 5:20, "shall
hide," AV (RV, "shall cover"). See COVER.
<A-6,Verb,3871,parakalupto>
lit., "to cover with a veil," AV, "hid," in Luke 9:45, "it was
veiled from them;" see CONCEAL.
<A-7,Verb,2990,lanthano>
"to escape notice, to be hidden from," is rendered "(could not)
be hid" in Mark 7:24, of Christ; "was (not) hid," Luke 8:47, of
the woman with the issue of blood; "is hidden," Acts 26:26, of

"none of these things has escaped the king's notice." See

12:2 (last part); in 1 Cor. 4:5, "hidden (things of darkness);"

of the heart)." See INWARDLY, SECRET.
<B-2,Adjective,614,apokruphos>
"hidden away from" (corresponding to A, No. 2; cp. Eng.,
"apocryphal"), is translated, "made (AV, kept) secret," in Mark
4:22; in Luke 8:17, RV, "secret," for AV, "hid;" in Col. 2:3,
RV, "hidden," AV, "hid." See SECRET.
$$T0001374
\High (from on, Most), Highly\
<A-1,Adjective,5308,hupselos>
"high, lofty," is used (a) naturally, of mountains, Matt. 4:8;
17:1; Mark 9:2; Rev. 21:10; of a wall, Rev. 21:12; (b)
figuratively, of the arm of God, Acts 13:17; of heaven, "on
high," plural, lit., "in high (places)," Heb. 1:3; (c)
metaphorically, Luke 16:15, RV, "exalted" (AV, "highly
esteemed"); Rom. 11:20, in the best texts, "high-minded" [lit.,
"mind (not) high things"]; Rom. 12:16.
<A-2,Adjective,5310,hupsistos>
"most high," is a superlative degree, the positive not being in
use; it is used of God in Luke 1:32,35,76; 6:35, in each of
which the RV has "the most High," for AV, "the highest;" AV and
RV in Mark 5:7; Luke 8:28; Acts 7:48; 16:17; Heb. 7:1. See
HIGHEST (below).
<A-3,Adjective,3173,megas>
"great," is translated "high" in John 19:31, of the Sabbath day
at the Passover season; here the meaning is virtually equivalent
to "holy," See GREAT.
Note: In Heb. 10:21, the RV rightly has "a great
(priest)," AV, "high." For "high places," Eph. 6:12, AV, see
HEAVENLY, B. No. 2.
<B-1,Noun,5311,hupsos>
"height," is used with ex (ek) "from," in the phrase "on high,"
Luke 1:78; 24:49; with eis, "in" or "into," Eph. 4:8. See
ESTATE, HEIGHT, No. 1.
<B-2,Noun,5313,hupsoma>
"high thing," 2 Cor. 10:5; in Rom. 8:39; "height. " See HEIGHT,
No. 2.
<C-1,Adverb,507,ano>
"above, upward," is used in Phil. 3:14, of the "high calling of
God in Christ Jesus," the prize of which is set before believers
as their goal, lit., "calling upward" (RV, marg.), a preferable
rendering to "heavenly calling." See ABOVE.
$$T0001375
\Higher\
<1,,511,anoteron>

title of God, see HIGH, A, No. 2.

$$T0001378
\High-minded\
<1,,5187,tuphoo>

metaphorically, for "conceit"); it is used in the Passive Voice,
metaphorically in 1 Tim. 3:6, "puffed up," RV (AV, "lifted up
with pride"); so 1 Tim. 6:4, AV, "proud," and 2 Tim. 3:4, AV,
"highminded." See PROUD, PUFF (up). Cp. tuphomai, "to smoke,"
Matt. 12:20, and tuphonikos, "tempestuous" (with anemos, "wind,"

14:23; in Mark 10:46, RV, "way side," AV, "highway side;" in

the highways" (i.e., the crossroads), AV, "the highways." See
WAY.
$$T0001380
\Hill\
<1,,3735,oros>
"a hill or mountain," is translated "hill" in Matt. 5:14; Luke
4:29; "mountain" in Luke 9:37, RV, AV, "hill" (of the mount of

\Hire, Hired\
<A-1,Noun,3408,misthos>

Tim. 5:18; 2 Pet. 2:13; Jude 1:11, RV, "hire" (AV,"reward"); in
2 Pet. 2:15, RV, "hire" (AV, "wages"). See REWARD.
<B-1,Verb,3409,misthoo>
"to let out for hire," is used in the Middle Voice, signifying
"to hire, to engage the services of anyone by contract," Matt.
20:1,7.
Note: In Matt. 20:9 there is no word for "hired" in the
original.
$$T0001385
\Hired house\
<1,,3410,misthoma>
akin to A and B, above, primarily denotes "a hire," as in the
Sept. of Deut. 23:18; Prov. 19:13; Ezek. 16:31,34,41, etc.; in
the NT, it is used of "a hired dwelling," Acts 28:30.
$$T0001386
\Hired servant, Hireling\
<1,,3411,misthotos>
an adjective denoting "hired," is used as a noun, signifying
"one who is hired," "hired servants," Mark 1:20; "hireling,"
John 10:12,13; here, it expresses, not only one who has no real
interest in his duty (that may or may not be present in its use
in Mark 1:20, and in misthios, No. 2), but one who is unfaithful
in the discharge of it; that sense attaches always to the word
rendered "hireling."
<2,,3407,misthios>
an adjective, akin to No. 1, and similarly signifying "a hired
servant," is used in Luke 15:17,19 (in some texts, ver. 21).
$$T0001387
\His, His own\
* Note: These translate (a) forms of pronouns under HE, No. 1 (a
frequent use: in 1 Pet. 2:24, "His own self"); the form autou,
"his," becomes emphatic when placed between the article and the
noun, e.g., 1 Thess. 2:19; Titus 3:5; Heb. 2:4; also under HE,
No. 3 (in which "his" is emphasized), e.g., John 5:47; 9:28; 1
Cor. 10:28; 2 Cor. 8:9; 2 Tim. 2:26; titus 3:7; 2 Pet. 1:16; (b)
heautou, "of himself, his own;" the RV rightly puts "his own,"
for the AV, "his," in Luke 11:21; 14:26; Rom. 4:19; 5:8, "His
own (love);" 1 Cor. 7:37; Gal. 6:8; Eph. 5:28,33; 1 Thess.
2:11,12; 4:4; in Rev. 10:7 the change has not been made; it
should read "his own servants;" (c) idios, "one's own," "his
own," in the RV, in Matt. 22:5; John 5:18; 2 Pet. 2:16; in Matt.
25:15, it is rendered "his several;" in John 19:27, "his own
home," lit., "his own things;" in 1 Tim. 6:15, RV, "its own
(times)," referring to the future appearing of Christ; in Heb.
4:10 (end of verse), both AV and RV have "his," where it should
be "his own;" so in Acts 24:23, for AV and RV, "his;" in 1 Cor.
7:7, RV, "his own," AV, "his proper;" (d) in Acts 17:28, the
genitive case of the definite article, "His (offspring)," lit.,
"of the" (i.e., the one referred to, namely, God).
$$T0001388
\Hither\
<1,,5602,hode>
primarily an adverb of manner, then, of place, (a) of "motion"
or "direction towards a place," e.g., Matt. 8:29; Mark 11:3;
Luke 9:41; John 6:25; (b) of "position;" See HERE, PLACE.
<2,,1759,enthade>
has the same meaning as No. 1; "hither," John 4:15,16; Acts
17:6; 25:17. See HERE.
Note: For deuro, "come hither," see COME, and HITHERTO,
Note (2).
$$T0001389
\Hitherto\
* Notes: (1) The phrase Heos arti, "until now," is rendered
"hitherto" in John 16:24, AV, and RV; in John 5:17, RV, "even
until now," which more definitely express the meaning that the
AV, "hitherto;" the rest of the Father and the Son having been
broken by man's sin, they were engaged in the accomplishment of
their counsels of grace with a view to redemption. (2) The
phrase achri tou deuro, lit., "until the hither," or "the
present," is used of time in Rom. 1:13, "hitherto." (3) In 1
Cor. 3:2, AV, oupo, "not yet," is translated "hitherto ... not,"
RV, "not yet."

\Hold (Noun)\
<1,,5084,teresis>
translated "hold" in Acts 4:3, AV, "prison" in Acts 5:18 (RV,
"ward"), signifies (a) "a watching, guarding;" hence,
"imprisonment, ward" (from tereo, "to watch, keep"); the RV, has
"ward" in both places; (b) "a keeping," as a commandments, 1
Cor. 7:19. See KEEPING, WARD.
<2,,5438,phulake>
"a guarding" or "guard" (akin to phulasso, "to guard or watch"),
also denotes "a prison, a hold," Rev, 18:2 (twice), RV, "hold"
in both places, AV, "cage," in the second (RV, marg., "prison,"
in both). See CAGE, IMPRISONMENT, PRISON.
$$T0001392
\Hold (down, fast, forth, on, to, up), Held, Holden, (take) Hold\
<1,,2192,echo>
"to have or hold," is used of mental conception, "to consider,
account," e.g., Matt. 21:26; of "steadfast adherence to faith,
or the faith," e.g., 1 Tim. 1:19; 3:9; 2 Tim. 1:13. See HAVE.

conduct (cp. Rom. 2:15, RV); in Rom. 7:6, RV, "holden," AV,
"held," of the Law as that which had "held" in bondage those who
through faith in Christ were made dead to it as a means of life.
See KEEP, MAKE (toward), POSSESS, RESTRAIN, SEIZE, STAY, TAKE.
<3,,472,antecho>

<6,,2902,krateo>
"to be strong, mighty, to prevail," (1) is most frequently
rendered "to lay or take hold on" (a) literally, e.g., Matt.
12:11; 14:3; 18:28; 21:46, RV (AV, "laid on hands on"); Matt.
22:6, RV (AV, "took"); Matt. 26:55, AV (RV, "took"); RV, "took
hold of" (AV, "held by"); Mark 3:21; 6:17; 12:12; 14:51; Acts
24:6, RV (AV, "took"); Rev. 20:2; (b) metaphorically, of "laying
hold of the hope of the Lord's return," Heb. 6:18; (2) also
signifies "to hold" or "hold fast," i.e., firmly, (a),
literally, Matt. 26:48, AV (RV, "take"); Acts 3:11; Rev. 2:1;
(b) metaphorically, of "holding fast a tradition or teaching,"
in an evil sense, Mark 7:3,4,8; Rev. 2:14,15; in a good sense, 2
Thess. 2:15; Rev. 2:25; 3:11; of "holding" Christ, i.e.,

2:19; a confession, Heb. 4:14; the name of Christ, i.e., abiding
by all that His name implies, Rev. 2:13; of restraint, Luke
24:16, "(their eyes) were holden;" of the winds, Rev. 7:1; of

<7,,1949,epilambano>
"to lay hold of, to take hold of" (epi, "upon," lambano, "to
take"), with a special purpose, always in the Middle Voice, is
so translated in Luke 20:20,26, of taking "hold" of Christ's
words; in Luke 23:26; Acts 21:33, RV, of laying "hold" of
persons; in 1 Tim. 6:12,19, of laying "hold" on eternal life,
i.e., practically appropriating all the benefits, privileges and
responsibilities involved in the possession of it; in Heb. 2:16,
RV "He taketh hold" (AV "took on") perhaps to be viewed in
connection with "deliver" (ver. 15) and "succor" (ver. 18). See
APPREHEND CATCH, TAKE.

<9,,1510,eimi>
"to be," is used in the imperfect tense, with the preposition,
sun, "with," in the idiomatic phrase "held with," in Acts 14:4,

Notes: (1) In Rom. 14:4, histemi, "to cause to stand,"
in the Passive Voice, "to be made to stand," is used in both
forms, the latter in the first part, RV, "he shall be made to
stand" (AV, "he shall be holden up"), the Active Voice in the
second part, AV, and RV, "to make stand." (2) In Matt. 12:14,
RV, lambano, "to take," is translated "took (counsel)," AV,
"held (a council)." (3) In Mark 15:1, some mss. have the verb
poieo, "to make," rendered "held (a consultation);" the most
authentic have hetoimazo, "to prepare," also translated "held."

\Holiness, Holy, Holily\
<A-1,Noun,38,hagiasmos>
translated "holiness" in the AV of Rom. 6:19,22; 1 Thess. 4:7; 1
Tim. 2:15; Heb. 12:14, is always rendered "sanctification" in
the RV. It signifies (a) separation to God, 1 Cor. 1:30; 2
Thess. 2:13; 1 Pet. 1:2; (b) the resultant state, the conduct
befitting those so separated, 1 Thess. 4:3,4,7, and the four
other places mentioned above. "Sanctification" is thus the state
predetermined by God for believers, into which in grace He calls
them, and in which they begin their Christian course and so
pursue it. Hence they are called "saints" (hagioi). See
SANTIFICATION.
Note: The corresponding verb hagiazo denotes "to set
apart to God." See HALLOW, SANCTIFY.
<A-2,Noun,42,hagiosune>
denotes the manifestation of the quality of "holiness" in
personal conduct; (a) it is used in Rom. 1:4, of the absolute
"holiness" of Christ in the days of His flesh, which
distinguished Him from all merely human beings; this (which is
indicated in the phrase "the spirit of holiness") and (in
vindication of it) His resurrection from the dead, marked Him
out as (He was "declared to be") the Son of God; (b) believers
are to be "perfecting holiness in the fear of God," 2 Cor. 7:1,
i.e., bringing "holiness" to its predestined end, whereby (c)
they may be found "unblameable in holiness" in the Parousia of
Christ, 1 Thess. 3:13.
"In each place character is in view, perfect in the case
of the Lord Jesus, growing toward perfection in the case of the
Christian. Here the exercise of love is declared to be the means
God uses to develop likeness to Christ in His children. The
sentence may be paraphrased thus:-- 'The Lord enable you more
and more to spend your lives in the interests of others, in
order that He may so establish you in Christian character now,
that you may be vindicated from every charge that might possibly
be brought against you at the Judgement-seat of Christ;' cp. 1
John 4:16,17." * [* From Notes on Thessalonians, by Hogg and
Vine, pp. 108, 115.]
<A-3,Noun,41,hagiotes>
"sanctity," the abstract quality of "holiness," is used (a) of
God, Heb. 12:10; (b) of the manifestation of it in the conduct
of the Apostle Paul and his fellow-laborers, 2 Cor. 1:12 (in the
best mss., for haplotes).
<A-4,Noun,3742,hosits>
is to be distinguished from No. 3, as denoting that quality of
"holiness" which is manifested in those who have regard equally
to grace and truth; it involves a right relation to God; it is
used in Luke 1:75; Eph. 4:24, and in each place is associated
with righteousness.
Notes: (1) In Acts 3:12, the AV translates eusebeia, by
"holiness," RV, "godliness," as everywhere, the true meaning of
the word. See GODLINESS. (2) In Titus 2:3, AV, hieroprepes,
which denotes "suited to a sacred character, reverent," is
rendered "as becometh holiness," RV, "reverent." See REVERENT.
<B-1,Adjective,40,hagios>
akin to A, Nos. 1 and 2, which are from the same root as hagnos
(found in hazo, "to venerate"), fundamentally signifies
"separated" (among the Greeks, dedicated to the gods), and
hence, in Scripture in its moral and spiritual significance,
separated from sin and therefore consecrated to God, sacred.
(a) It is predicted of God (as the absolutely "Holy"
One, in His purity, majesty and glory): of the Father, e.g.,
Luke 1:49; John 17:11; 1 Pet. 1:15,16; Rev. 4:8; 6:10; of the
Son, e.g., Luke 1:35; Acts 3:14; 4:27,30; 1 John 2:20; of the
Spirit, e.g., Matt. 1:18 and frequently in all the Gospels,
Acts, Romans, 1 and 2 Cor., Eph., 1 Thess.; also in 2 Tim. 1:14;
Titus 3:5; 1 Pet. 1:12; 2 Pet. 1:21; Jude 1:20.
(b) It is used of men and things (see below) in so far
as they are devoted to God. Indeed the quality, as attributed to
God, is often presented in a way which involves Divine demands
upon the conduct of believers. These are called hagioi,
"saints," i.e., "sanctified" or "holy" ones.
This sainthood is not an attainment, it is a state into
which God in grace calls men; yet believers are called to
sanctify themselves (consistently with their calling, 2 Tim.
1:9), cleansing themselves from all defilement, forsaking sin,
living a "holy" manner of life, 1 Pet. 1:15; 2 Pet. 3:11, and
experiencing fellowship with God in His holiness. The saints are
thus figuratively spoken of as "a holy temple," 1 Cor. 3:17 (a
local church); Eph. 2:21 (the whole Church), cp. Eph. 5:27; "a
holy priesthood," 1 Pet. 2:5; "a holy nation," 1 Pet. 2:9.
"It is evident that hagios and its kindred words ...
express something more and higher than hieros, sacred, outwardly
associated with God; ... something more than semnos, worthy,
honorable; something more than hagnos, pure, free from
defilement. hagios is ... more comprehensive ... It is
characteristically godlikness" (G.B. Stevens, in Hastings' Bib.
Dic.).
The adjective is also used of the outer part of the
tabernacle, Heb. 9:2 (RV, "the holy place"); of the inner
sanctuary, Heb. 9:3, RV, "the Holy of Holies;" Heb. 9:24, "a
holy place," RV; Heb. 9:25 (plural), of the presence of God in
heaven, where there are not two compartments as in the
Tabernacle, all being "the holy place;" Heb. 9:8,12 (neuter
plural); Heb. 10:19, "the holy place," RV (AV, "the holiest,"
neut. plural), see SANCTUARY; of the city of Jerusalem, Rev.
11:2; its temple, Acts 6:13; of the faith, Jude 1:20; of the
greetings of saints, 1 Cor. 16:20; of angels, e.g., Mark 8:38;
of apostles and prophets, Eph. 3:5; of the future heavenly
Jerusalem, Rev. 21:2,10; 22:19.
<B-2,Adjective,3741,hosios>
akin to A, No. 4, signifies "religiously right, holy," as
opposed to what is unrighteous or polluted. It is commonly
associated with righteousness (see A, No.4). It is used "of God,
Rev. 15:4; 16:5; and of the body of the Lord Jesus, Acts 2:27;
13:35, citations from Ps. 16:10, Sept.; Heb. 7:26; and of
certain promises made to David, which could be fulfilled only in
the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, Acts 13:34. In 1 Tim. 2:8;
Titus 1:8, it is used of the character of Christians ... In the
Sept., hosios frequently represents the Hebrew word chasid,
which varies in meaning between 'holy' and 'gracious,' or
'merciful;' cp. Ps. 16:10 with 145:17." * [* From Notes on
Thessalonians, by Hogg and Vine, p. 64.]
Notes: (1) For Acts 13:34, see the RV and the AV marg.;
the RV in Rev. 16:5, "Thou Holy One," translates the most
authentic mss. (AV "and shalt be"). (2) For hieros (see No. 1),
subserving a sacred purpose, translated "holy" in 2 Tim. 3:15,
AV (of the Scriptures), see SACRED.
<C-1,Adverb,3743,hosios>
akin to A, No. 4, and B, No. 2, "holily," i.e., pure from evil
conduct, and observant of God's will, is used in 1 Thess. 2:10,
of the conduct of the Apostle and his fellow-missionaries.
<D-1,Verb,37,hagiazo>
"to hallow, sanctify," in the Passive Voice, "to be made holy,
be sanctified," is translated "let him be made holy" in Rev.
22:11, the aorist or point tense expressing the definiteness and
completeness of the Divine act; elsewhere it is rendered by the
verb "to sanctify." See HALLOW, SANCTIFY.

\Home, at Home (to be; workers)\
<A-1,Noun and Phrase,3624,oikos>
"a house, dwelling," is used (a) with the preposition eis,
"unto," with the meaning "to home," lit., "to a house," in Mark
8:3, RV, "to (their) home," AV, "to (their own) houses;" so Mark
8:26, "to (his) home;" Luke 15:6, "home," lit., "into the
house;" (b) with the preposition en, "in," 1 Cor. 11:34, "(let
him eat) at home;" 1 Cor. 14:35, "(let them ask ...) at home;"
(c) with the preposition kata, "down," Acts 2:46, "(breaking
bread) at home," RV (AV, "from house to house"); so in Acts 5:42
(AV, "in every house").
Notes: (1) In Mark 3:19, the AV and RV marg., have
"home," for the text "to a house;" the latter seems the more
probable. See HOUSE.
(2) In 1 Tim. 5:4, the phrase ton idion oikon, is
rendered "at home," of the necessity that children should show
piety there; RV, "towards their own family," the house being put
by metonymy for the family. The neuter plural of idios, "one's
own," with the article, preceded by eis, "unto," lit., "unto
one's own (things)," is translated "home" in Acts 21:6; in John
19:27, "unto his own home" ("home" being italicized).
Note: In John 16:32, this phrase is rendered "to his
own" (of the predicted scattering of the disciples), AV marg.,
"his own home;" cp. John 1:11, "His own things," RV, marg.
(i.e., "His possessions").
For oikia in Matt. 8:6, AV, "at home," see HOUSE.
(3) In Luke 24:12 the reflexive pronoun hauton (in some
mss. heauton), preceded by pros, to, is rendered "to his home,"
RV (lit., "to himself"), of the departure of Peter from the
Lord's tomb; in John 20:10, the same construction is used, in
the plural, of Peter and John on the same occasion, and rendered
"unto their own home."
<B-1,Adjective,3626,oikourgos>
"working at home" (oikos, and a root of ergon, "work"), is used
in Titus 2:5, "workers at home," RV, in the injunction given to
elder women regarding the training of the young women. Some mss.
have oikouros, "watching" or "keeping the home" (oikos, and
ouros, "a keeper"), AV, "keepers at home."
<C-1,Verb,1736,endemeo>
lit., "to be among one's people" (en, "in," demos, "people;"
endemos, "one who is in his own place or land"), is used
metaphorically of the life on earth of believers, 2 Cor. 5:6,
"at home (in the body);" in 2 Cor. 5:8 of the life in Heaven of
the spirits of believers, after their decease, "at home (with
the Lord)," RV (AV, "present"); in 2 Cor. 5:9, "at home" (AV,
"present") refers again to the life on earth. In each verse the
verb is contrasted with ekdemeo, "to be away from home, to be
absent;" in ver. 6, "we are absent," i.e., away from "home"
(from the Lord); in ver. 8, "to be absent" (i.e., away from the
"home" of the body); so in ver. 9, "absent." The implication in
being "at home with the Lord" after death is a testimony against
the doctrine of the unconsciousness of the spirit, when freed
from the natural body.
$$T0001398
\Honest, Honestly, Honesty\
<A-1,Adjective,2570,kalos>
"good, admirable, becoming," has also the ethical meaning of
what is "fair, right, honorable, of such conduct as deserves
esteem;" it is translated "honest" [cp. Latin honestus (from
honos, "honor")], which has the same double meaning as "honest"
in the AV, namely, regarded with honor, honorable, and bringing
honor, becoming; in Luke 8:15 (AV, and RV), "an honest and good
(agathos) heart;" Rom. 12:17; 2 Cor. 8:21; 13:7, RV, "honorable"
(AV, "honest"), of things which are regarded with esteem; in 1
Pet. 2:12, of behavior, RV, "seemly," AV, "honest" (i.e.,
becoming). See GOOD.
Note: In Titus 3:14, the RV and AV margins give what is
probably the accurate meaning, "(to profess) honest occupations"
(AV, "trades"); in the texts "(to maintain) good works."
<A-2,Adjective,4586,semnos>
"august, venerable," is rendered "honest" in Phil. 4:8, AV
(marg., "venerable"), RV, "honorable" (marg., "reverent").
Matthew Arnold suggests "nobly serious." See GRAVE.
Note: In Acts 6:3, "men of honest (RV, 'good') report"
translates the Passive Voice of martureo, lit., "having had
witness borne."
<B-1,Adverb,2573,kalos>
corresponding to A, No. 1, is used in Heb. 13:18, "honestly,"
i.e., honorably. See PLACE, C, Note (4), WELL.
<B-2,Adverb,2156,euschemonos>
"becomingly, decently," is rendered "honestly" in Rom. 13:13,
where it is set in contrast with the confusion of gentile social
life, and in 1 Thess. 4:12, of the manner of life of believers
as a witness to "them that are without;" in 1 Cor. 14:40,
"decently," in contrast with confusion in the churches. See
DECENTLY.

<1,,3192,meli>
occurs with the adjective agrios, "wild," in Matt. 3:4; Mark
1:6; in Rev. 10:9,10, as an example of sweetness. As "honey" is
liable to ferment, it was precluded from offerings to God, Lev.
2:11. The liquid "honey" mentioned in Ps. 19:10; Prov. 16:24 is
regarded as the best; a cruse of it was part of the present
brought to Ahijah by Jeroboam's wife, 1 Kings 14:3.
