\Instruct, Instruction, Instructor\
<A-1,Verb,2727,katecheo>
"to teach orally, inform, instruct," is translated by the verb
"to instruct" in Luke 1:4; Acts 18:25 (RV marg., "taught by word
of mouth"); Rom. 2:18; 1 Cor. 14:19, RV (AV, "teach"). See
INFORM, TEACH.
<A-2,Verb,3811,paideuo>
"to train children, teach," is rendered "was instructed," in
Acts 7:22, RV (AV, "learned"); "instructing" in 2 Tim. 2:25, AV
(RV, "correcting"); Titus 2:12, RV, "instructing" (AV,
"teaching"). The verb is used of the family discipline, as in
Heb. 12:6,7,10; cp. 1 Cor. 11:32; 2 Cor. 6:9; Rev. 3:19. In 1
Tim. 1:20 (Passive Voice) it is translated "might be taught," RV
(AV, "may learn"), but, "however the passage is to be
understood, it is clear that not the impartation of knowledge
but severe discipline is intended. In Luke 23:16,22, Pilate,
since he had declared the Lord guiltless of the charge brought
against Him, and hence could not punish Him, weakly offered, as
a concession to the Jews, to 'chastise, paideuo, Him, and let
Him go.'" * [* From Notes on Galatians, by Hogg and Vine, p.
165.]
This sense of paideuo is confirmed by Heb. 12:6, where
it is joined (in a quotation from the Sept. of Prov. 3:12) with
"to lash or scourge." Cp. the scene in the Pilgrim's Progress
where a shining one with a whip of small cords "chastised sore"
the pilgrims foolishly caught in the net of the flatterer and
said to them, "As many as I love I rebuke and chasten"
(paideuo). See CORRECT, TEACH.
<A-3,Verb,3100,matheteuo>
used transitively, "to make a disciple," is translated "which is
instructed" in Matt. 13:52, AV (RV, "who hath been made a
disciple"). See DISCIPLE.
<A-4,Verb,3453,mueo>
"to initiate into the mysteries," is used in the Passive Voice,
in Phil. 4:12, AV, "I am instructed," RV, "have I learned the
secret." See LEARN.
<A-5,Verb,4264,probibazo>
"to lead forward, lead on" (the casual of probaino, "to go
forward;" pro, "forward," bibazo, "to lift up"), is used in the
Passive Voice in Matt. 14:8, and translated, AV, "being before
instructed," RV, "being put forward." Some mss. have it in Acts
19:33, instead of No. 6.
<A-6,Verb,4822,sumbibazo>
"to join, knit, unite" (sun, "with"), then, "to compare," and
so, "to prove," hence, "to teach, instruct," is so rendered in 1
Cor. 2:16; it is found in the best mss. in Acts 19:33 (RV marg.,
"instructed"). See COMPACTED, CONCLUDE, KNIT TOGETHER, PROVE.
* (INSTRUCTION)
<B-1,Noun,3809,paideia>
"training, instruction," is translated "instruction" in 2 Tim.
3:16. See CHASTEN.
* (INSTRUCTOR)
<B-2,Noun,3807,paidagogos>
"a guide," or "guardian" or "trainer of boys," lit., "a
child-leader" (pais, "a boy, or child," ago, "to lead"), "a
tutor," is translated "instructors" in 1 Cor. 4:15, AV (RV,
"tutors"); here the thought is that of pastors rather than
teachers; in Gal. 3:24,25, AV, "schoolmaster" (RV, "tutor,"),
but here the idea of instruction is absent. "In this and allied
words the idea is that of training, discipline, not of
impartation of knowledge. The paidagogos was not the instructor
of the child; he exercised a general supervision over him and
was responsible for his moral and physical well-being. Thus
understood, paidagogos is appropriately used with 'kept in ward'
and 'shut up,' whereas to understand it as equivalent to
'teacher' introduces an idea entirely foreign to the passage,
and throws the Apostle's argument into confusion." * [* From
Notes on Galatians, by Hogg and Vine, pp. 163,164] Cp.
epitropos, "a steward, guardian, tutor."
<B-3,Noun,3810,paideutes>
akin to A, No. 2, denotes (a) "an instructor, a teacher," Rom.
2:20, AV, "an instructor" (RV, "a corrector"); (b) "one who
disciplines, corrects, chastens," Heb. 12:9, RV, "to chasten"
[AV, "which corrected" (lit., "correctors")]. In (a) the
discipline of the school is in view; in (b) that of the family.
See CORRECTOR. Cp. epitropos, "a steward, guardian, tutor."
$$T0001512
\Instruments\
<1,,3696,hoplon>
"a tool, instrument, weapon," is used metaphorically in Rom.
6:13 of the members of the body as "instruments" (marg.,
"weapons"), negatively, of unrighteousness, positively, of
righteousness. The metaphor is probably military (cp. ver. 23,
"wages," i.e., soldiers' pay); Moule renders it "implements;"
"weapons" seems to be the meaning. See ARMOR, WEAPONS.
$$T0001513
\Insurrection\

"riot," Acts 19:40, RV (AV, "uproar"); (c) "a dissension," Acts
15:2; in Acts 23:7,10, "dissension." See DISSENSION.
<A-2,Noun,4955,stasiastes>
denotes "a rebel, revolutionist, one who stirs up sedition"
(from stasiazo, "to stir up sedition"), Mark 15:7, "had made
insurrection." Some mss. have sustasiastes, a fellow-rioter, a
fellow-mover of sedition, AV, "had made insurrection with
(him)."

signifies "to rise up against" (lit., "to cause to stand forth
against," kata, "against," epi, "forth," histemi, "to cause to
stand"), Acts 18:12, AV, "made insurrection" (RV, "rose up
against)."

the deliberate exercise of volition), is translated "intend" in

<2,,2309,thelo>
"to will, be willing, desire" (less strong, and more frequent
than No. 1), is translated "intending" in Luke 14:28, AV (RV,

"thought"). See MIND. Cp. Enthumesis, "thought" (see DEVICE).
<2,,3056,logos>
"a word, account, etc.," sometimes denotes "a reason, cause,
intent," e.g., Matt. 5:32, "cause;" it is rendered "intent" in
Acts 10:29. See CAUSE.
Notes: (1) The phrase eis touto, lit., "unto this,"
i.e., "for this purpose," is rendered "for this (AV, 'that')
intent" in Acts 9:21, RV (2) The phrase eis to, "unto the,"
followed by a verb in the infinitive mood, is translated "to the
intent" in 1 Cor. 10:6. (3) The phrase pros ti, lit., "in
reference to what," is rendered "for what intent" in John 13:28.
(4) In John 11:15 the conjunction hina, "to the end that," is
translated "to the intent," and in Eph. 3:10, "to the intent
that."
$$T0001516
\Intercessions\
<A-1,Noun,1783,enteuxis>
primarily denotes "a lighting upon, meeting with" (akin to B);
then, "a conversation;" hence, "a petition," a meaning frequent

and so for approaching God in "intercession;" it is rendered
"prayer" in 1 Tim. 4:5; in the plural in 1 Tim. 2:1 (i.e.,

For the synonymous words, proseuche, deesis, see PRAYER.
<B-1,Verb,1793,entunchano>
primarily "to fall in with, meet with in order to converse;"
then, "to make petition," especially "to make intercession,

Acts 25:24, "made suit to (me)," RV [AV, "have dealt with
(me)"], i.e., against Paul; in Rom. 11:2, of Elijah in

intercessory work of Christ; so Heb. 7:25. See DEAL WITH, PLEAD,
SUIT.

"to make a petition" or "intercede on behalf of another" (huper,
"on behalf of," and No. 1), is used in Rom. 8:26 of the work of

primarily "a bringing forth, birth" (from tikto, "to beget"),
then, "an offspring," is used metaphorically of the produce of
money lent out, "interest," usury, Matt. 25:27; Luke 19:23. See

interpreted," King of righteousness).
<A-2,Verb,1329,diermeneuo>

used of Christ in interpreting to the two on the way to Emmaus
"in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself," RV,
"interpreted" (AV, "expounded"); in Acts 9:36, it is rendered
"is by interpretation," lit., "being interpreted" (of Tabitha,
as meaning Dorcas); in 1 Cor. 12:30; 14:5,13,27, it is used with
reference to the temporary gift of tongues in the churches; this
gift was inferior in character to that of prophesying unless he
who spoke in a "tongue" interpreted his words, 1 Cor. 14:5; he
was, indeed, to pray that he might interpret, 1 Cor. 14:13; only
two, or at the most three, were to use the gift in a gathering,
and that "in turn" (RV); one was to interpret; in the absence of

Scripture did not put their own construction upon the

\Jesting\
<1,,2160,eutrapelia>
properly denotes "wit, facetiousness, versatility" (lit.,
"easily turning," from eu, "well," trepo, "to turn"). It was
used in the literal sense to describe the quick movements of
apes and persons. Pericles speaks of the Athenians of his day
(430 B.C.) as distinguished by a happy and gracious
"flexibility." In the next century Aristotle uses it of
"versatility" in the give and take of social intercourse, quick
repartee. In the sixth century, B.C., the poet Pindar speaks of
one Jason as never using a word of "vain lightness," a meaning
deteriorated, and it came to denote "coarse jesting, ribaldry,"
as in Eph. 5:4, where it follows morologia, "foolish talking."
$$T0001543
\Jesus\
<1,,2424,iesous>
is a transliteration of the Heb. "Joshua," meaning "Jehovah is
salvation," i.e., "is the Savior," "a common name among the
Jews, e.g., Ex. 17:9; Luke 3:29 (RV); Col. 4:11. It was given to
the Son of God in Incarnation as His personal name, in obedience
to the command of an angel to Joseph, the husband of His Mother,
Mary, shortly before He was born, Matt. 1:21. By it He is spoken
of throughout the Gospel narratives generally, but not without
exception, as in Mark 16:19,20; Luke 7:13, and a dozen other
places in that Gospel, and a few in John.
"'Jesus Christ' occurs only in Matt. 1:1,18; 16:21,
marg.; Mark 1:1; John 1:17; 17:3. In Acts the name 'Jesus' is
found frequently. 'Lord Jesus' is the normal usage, as in Acts
8:16; 19:5,17; see also the reports of the words of Stephen,
Acts 7:59, of Ananias, Acts 9:17, and of Paul, Acts 16:31;
though both Peter, Acts 10:36, and Paul, Acts 16:18, also used
'Jesus Christ.'
"In the Epistles of James, Peter, John and Jude, the
personal name is not once found alone, but in Rev. eight times
(RV), Rev. 1:9; 12:17; 14:12; 17:6; 19:10 (twice); 20:4; 22:16.
"In the Epistles of Paul 'Jesus' appears alone just
thirteen times, and in the Hebrews eight times; in the latter
the title 'Lord' is added once only, at Heb. 13:20. In the
Epistles of James, Peter John, and Jude, men who had companied
with the Lord in the days of His flesh, 'Jesus Christ' is the
invariable order (in the RV) of the Name and Title, for this was
the order of their experience; as 'Jesus' they knew Him first,
that He was Messiah they learnt finally in His resurrection. But
Paul came to know Him first in the glory of heaven, Acts 9:1-6,
and his experience being thus the reverse of theirs, the reverse
order, 'Christ Jesus,' is of frequent occurrence in his letters,
but, with the exception of Acts 24:24, does not occur elsewhere
in the RV.
"In Paul's letter the order is always in harmony with
the context. Thus 'Christ Jesus' describes the Exalted One who
emptied Himself, Phil. 2:5, and testifies to His pre-existence;
'Jesus Christ' describes the despised and rejected One Who was
afterwards glorified, Phil. 2:11, and testifies to His
resurrection. 'Christ Jesus' suggests His grace, 'Jesus Christ'
suggests His glory." * [* From Notes on Thessalonians, by Hogg
and Vine, pp. 26,29.]

\Jew(-s) (live as do the), Jewess, Jewish, Jewry, Jews' religion\
<A-1,Adjective,2453,ioudaios>
is used (a) adjectivally, with the lit. meaning, "Jewish,"
sometimes with the addition of aner, "a man," Acts 10:28; 22:3;
in Acts 21:39 with anthropos, in some mss. (a man in the generic
sense); the best mss. omit the phrase here; in Acts 13:6, lit.,
"a Jewish false-prophet;" in John 3:22, with the word chora,
"land" or "country," signifying "Judean," lit., "Judean
country;" used by metonymy for the people of the country; (b) as
a noun, "a Jew, Jews," e.g., Matt. 2:2; Mark 7:3. The name "Jew"
is primarily tribal (from Judah). It is first found in 2 Kings
16:6, as distinct from Israel, of the northern kingdom. After
the Captivity it was chiefly used to distinguish the race from
Gentiles, e.g., John 2:6; Acts 14:1; Gal. 2:15, where it denotes
Christians of Jewish race; it distinguishes Jews from
Samaritans, in John 4:9; from proselytes, in Acts 2:10. The word
is most frequent in John's Gospel and the Acts; in the former
"it especially denotes the typical representatives of Jewish
thought contrasted with believers in Christ ... or with other
Jews of less pronounced opinions, e.g., John 3:25; 5:10; 7:13;
9:22" (Lukyn Williams, in Hastings' Bib. Dic.); such
representatives were found, generally, in opposition to Christ;
in the Acts they are chiefly those who opposed the Apostles and
the Gospel. In Rom. 2:28,29 the word is used of ideal Jews,
i.e., Jews in spiritual reality, believers, whether Jews or
Gentiles by natural birth. The feminine, "Jewess," is found in
Acts 16:1; 24:24.
It also denotes Judea, e.g., Matt. 2:1; Luke 1:5; John
4:3, the word "country" being understood [cp. (a) above]. In
Luke 23:5; John 7:1, where the AV has "Jewry," the RV translates
it as usual, "Judea."
<A-2,Adjective,2451,ioudaikos>
denotes "Jewish," Titus 1:14.
<B-1,Noun,2454,ioudaismos>
"Judaism," denotes "the Jews' religion," Gal. 1:13,14, and
stands, not for their religious beliefs, but for their religious
practices, not as instituted by God, but as developed and
extended from these by the traditions of the Pharisees and
scribes. In the Apocrypha it denotes comprehensively "the
Government, laws, institutions and religion of the Jews."
<C-1,Verb,2450,ioudaizo>
lit., "to Judaize," i.e., to conform to "Jewish" religious
practices and manners, is translated "to live as do the Jews,"
in Gal. 2:14.

12:9. See CLEAVE.
<2,,4347,proskollao>
"to stick to," a strengthened form of No. 1, with pros, "to,"
intensive, is used in the Passive Voice, reflexively, in a
metaphorical sense, with the meanings (a) "to join oneself to,"
in Acts 5:36; (b) "to cleave to," of the husband with regard to
the wife, Matt. 19:5; Mark 10:7; in Eph. 5:31, RV, "shall cleave
to" (AV, "shall be joined to"). See CLEAVE.
<3,,4801,su(n)zeugnumi>

Notes: (1) In 1 Cor. 1:10, katartizo, "to render
complete, to perfect" (kata, "down," intensive, and artios,
"complete, jointed"), "to restore," is translated "be perfectly
joined together," AV (RV, "be perfected together"); see FIT. (2)
