$$T0003322
\Which\
* Notes: (1) This is the translation of (a) the article with
nouns, adjectives, numerals, participles, etc., e.g., "that
which," etc.; (b) the relative pronoun hos, "who," in one of its
forms (a frequent use); (c) hostis, "whoever," differing from
hos by referring to a subject in general, as one of a class,
e.g., Rom. 2:15; Gal. 4:24 (twice); 5:19; Rev. 2:24; 20:4; (d)
the interrogative pronoun tis, "who? which?," e.g., Matt. 6:27;

poios, the interrogative of (e), e.g., John 10:32; (g) hosos,
"whatsoever," etc.; plural, how many, translated "which" in Acts
9:39. (2) In Acts 8:26, AV, haute (the feminine of houtos,
"this"), "the same" (RV), is translated "which." (3) In the
triple title of God in Rev. 1:4,8; 4:8, "which" is the
translation, firstly, of the article with the present participle
of eimi, to be, lit., "the (One) being," secondly, of the
article with the imperfect tense of eimi (impossible of lit.,
translation, the title not being subject to grammatical change),
thirdly, of the article with the present participle of erchomai,
to come, lit., "the coming (One);" in Rev. 11:17; 16:5 the
wording of the AV and RV differs; in Rev. 11:17 the AV follows
the inferior mss. by adding "and art to come" (RV omits); in
Rev. 16:5, the AV, "and shalt be," represents kai ("and")
followed by the article and the future participle of eimi, "to
be," lit., "and the (One) about to be;" the RV substitutes the
superior reading "Thou Holy One," lit., "the holy (One):" see
HOLY, B, No. 2. (4) In Phil. 2:21, AV, "the things of Jesus
Christ" (RV, is rendered "the things which are Jesus Christ's."

$$T0003323

"while" in Luke 18:4; John 7:33; 12:35 (1st part); 1 Cor. 16:7;
kairos, "a season," "a while," Luke 8:13; in Acts 19:22, RV,
"while" (AV, "season"); for the different meanings of these
words see SEASON. (4) In Acts 18:18, AV, "a good while," is,
lit., "sufficient days," RV, "many days." (5) In Acts 28:6, AV,
epi polu, lit., "upon much," is rendered "a great while" (RV,
"long"). (6) For Mark 1:35 see DAY, B. (7) In Mark 15:44 palai,
"long ago," is rendered "any while." (8) In Acts 27:33; Heb.
3:13 achri (or achris) followed by hou, the genitive case of the
relative pronoun hos, lit., "until which," is rendered "while;"
cp. en ho, in Mark 2:19; Luke 5:34; John 5:7; en to, in Luke
1:21, RV, "while;" in Heb. 3:15, "while it is said," is, lit.,
"in the being said" (en, with the article and the pres. infin.,
Passive of lego); so, e.g., in Matt. 13:25 (9) In Heb. 10:33,
AV., "whilst ye were made," partly translating the present
participle of theatrizomai, "to become a gazing-stock," RV,
"being made;" in the 2nd part, ginomai, "to become," is
translated "whilst ye became," AV (RV, "becoming"). (10) The
conjunction heos, "until," etc., has the meaning "while" in
Matt. 14:22; Mark 6:45; 14:32; in some texts, John 9:4;
12:35,36; with hotou, "whatever" (an oblique case, neuter, of
hostis, "whoever"), "whiles," Matt. 5:25. (11) In Acts 20:11
hikanos, "sufficient," is rendered "a long while." (12) Hos, as,
"while" in Luke 24:32 (twice); John 12:35,36; Acts 1:10; 10:17.
(13) Hotan, "when," is rendered "while" in 1 Cor. 3:4, AV (RV,
"when"). (14) Hote, "when," is rendered "while" in John 17:12;
Heb. 9:17. (15) In John 4:31 metaxu, "between," used with en to,
"in the," is rendered "meanwhile;" in Rom. 2:15 metaxu is itself
rendered "the mean while" (RV, "between"). (16) In Acts 18:18,
RV, hikanos is rendered "many" (AV, "good"). (17) In 1 Pet. 1:6,
RV, oligon, "a little," is rendered "for a little while" (AV,
"for a season").

"a whisperer," occurs in an evil sense in Rom. 1:29.

<2,,5587,psithurismos>

the Sept., Eccl. 10:11, of "a murmured enchantment."

        Note: Synonymous with No. 1 is katalalos, "a backbiter"
(Rom. 1:30), the distinction being that this denotes one guilty
of open calumny, psithuristes, one who does it clandestinely.

"sound (speech)," Titus 2:8. See SOUND.

<A-6,Adjective,3651,holoteles>
"wholly," 1 Thess. 5:23, is lit., "whole-complete" (A, No. 1,
and telos, "an end"), i.e., "through and through;" the Apostle's
desire is that the sanctification of the believer may extend to
every part of his being. The word is similar in meaning to No.
4; holokleros draws attention to the person as a "whole,"
holoteles, to the several parts which constitute him.

        Note: In 1 Tim. 4:15, the sentence freely rendered "give
thyself wholly to them" is, lit., "be in these (things)."

<B-1,Verb,5198,hugiaino>
"to be in good health," akin to A, No. 5, is rendered "they that
are whole" in Luke 5:31; "whole" in Luke 7:10 (present

SAVE.

5:19 for AV, "wickedness;" he is so called also in AV and RV in
John 17:15; 2 Thess. 3:3; AV only in Luke 11:4; in 3 John 1:10,
AV, the word is translated "malicious," RV, "wicked."

<2,,113,athesmos>
"lawless" (a, negative, thesmos, "law, custom"), "wicked,"
occurs in 2 Pet. 2:7; 3:17. An instance of the use of the word
is found in the papyri, where a father breaks off his daughter's
engagement because he learnt that her fiance was giving himself
over to lawless deeds (Moulton and Milligan, Vocab.).

        Notes: (1) In Matt. 21:41, AV, kakos (for which see BAD,
No. 1, EVIL, A, No. 1), is translated "wicked" (RV,

21:2,3; Acts 6:1; 9:39,41; 1 Tim. 5:3 (twice),4,5,11,16 (twice);
Jas. 1:27; 1 Tim. 5:9 refers to elderly "widows" (not an
ecclesiastical "order"), recognized, for relief or maintenance
by the church (cp. 1 Tim. 5:3,16), as those who had fulfilled
the conditions mentioned; where relief could be ministered by
those who had relatives that were "widows" (a likely
circumstance in large families), the church was not to be
responsible; there is an intimation of the tendency to shelve
individual responsibility at the expense of church funds. In
Rev. 18:7, it is used figuratively of a city forsaken.

an adjective denoting "womanly, female," is used as a noun in 1
Pet. 3:7, AV, "wife," RV, "woman."

        Note: In John 19:25 the article stands idiomatically for

domestic," said of honey, Matt. 3:4; Mark 1:6; (b) "savage,
fierce," Jude 1:13, RV, metaphorically, "wild (waves)," AV,
"raging." It is used in the papyri of a malignant wound.

        Note: In Rev. 6:8 the RV renders therion (plural) "wild
beasts" (AV, "beasts").

$$T0003340
\Wilderness\

Acts 13:22, plural, "my desires;" Rom. 2:18; 12:2, lit., "the
will of God, the good and perfect and acceptable;" here the
repeated article is probably resumptive, the adjectives
describing the will, as in the Eng. versions; Gal. 1:4; Eph.
1:9; 5:17, "of the Lord;" Col. 1:9; 4:12; 1 Thess. 4:3; 5:18,
where it means "the gracious design," rather than "the
determined resolve;" 2 Tim. 2:26, which should read "which have
been taken captive by him" [(autou), i.e., by the Devil; the RV,
"by the Lord's servant" is an interpretation; it does not
correspond to the Greek] unto His (ekeinou) will" (i.e., "God's
will;" the different pronoun refers back to the subject of the
sentence, viz., God); Heb. 10:10; Rev. 4:11, RV, "because of Thy
will;" of human will, e.g., 1 Cor. 7:37; (b) subjectively, the

* When "will" is not part of the translation of the future tense
of verbs, it represents one of the following:

<C-1,Verb,2309,thelo>
for the force of which see DESIRE, B, No. 6, usually expresses
"desire" or "design;" it is most frequently translated by "will"
or "would;" see especially Rom. 7:15,16,18-21. In 1 Tim. 2:4,
RV, "willeth" signifies the gracious "desire" of God for all men
to be saved; not all are "willing" to accept His condition,
depriving themselves either by the self-established criterion of
their perverted reason, or because of their self-indulgent
preference for sin. In John 6:21, the AV renders the verb
"willingly" (RV, "they were willing"); in 2 Pet. 3:5, AV, the
present participle is translated "willingly" (RV, "willfully").

        The following are RV renderings for the AV, "will:"
Matt. 16:24,25, "would;" "wouldest," Matt. 19:21; 20:21;
"would," Matt. 20:26,27; Mark 8:34,35; 10:43,44; "would fain,"

8:44, "it is your will (to do);" "wouldest," Rom. 13:3; "would,"
1 Cor. 14:35; 1 Pet. 3:10.

<C-2,Verb,1014,boulomai>
for the force of which see DESIRE, B, No. 7, usually expresses
the deliberate exercise of volition more strongly than No. 1,
and is rendered as follows in the RV, where the AV has "will:"
Matt 11:27; Luke 10:22, "willeth;" Jas. 4:4, "would;" in Jas.
3:4, RV, "willeth" (AV, "listeth"). In Jas. 1:18 the perfect
participle is translated "of His own will," lit. "having
willed."

<C-3,Verb,3195,mello>
"to be about to," is translated "will" in Matt. 2:13; John 7:35
(twice); "wilt," John 14:22; "will," Acts 17:31; "wouldest,"
Acts 23:20; "will," Acts 27:10; Rev. 3:16. See ABOUT, B.

willing" in 2 Cor. 5:8; in 1 Thess. 2:8, AV, "we were willing"
(RV, "we were well pleased"). See PLEASE, PLEASURE.

        Notes: (1) In 2 Cor. 8:3, AV, authairetos, "of one's own

<1,,417,anemos>
besides its literal meaning, is used metaphorically in Eph.
4:14, of variable teaching. In Matt. 24:31; Mark 13:27 the four
"winds" stand for the four cardinal points of the compass; so in
Rev. 7:1, "the four winds of the earth" (cp. Jer. 49:36; Dan.
7:2); the contexts indicate that these are connected with the
execution of Divine judgments. Deissmann (Bible Studies) and
Moulton and Milligan (Vocab.) illustrate the phrase from the
papyri.

rushing "wind" at Pentecost, Acts 2:2. See BREATH.
