Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a bribe-taker, receiver of corrupt gifts (δῶρον, gift + δέχομαι, to receive). Eliphaz's one true sentence aimed at the wrong man: 'the testimony of an impious man is death, and fire shall burn the houses of bribe-takers' — the doctrine sound (Exodus 23:8), the address mistaken. The paired noun δωρολήπτης stands one entry on at Proverbs 15:27.

The blessing runs the other way for the man who 'shakes his hands free of bribes': he 'shall dwell on the heights' (Isaiah 33:15-16).

  • bribe-receiver

The family carries through Israel's story to the winter feast of Dedication where Jesus walked in the temple (John 10:22-23, ἐγκαίνια) and declared the true consecrated one: 'him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world' (John 10:36).

ἐκκαλύπτω (ekkalyptō)

Verb — to uncover, expose (ἐκ + καλύπτω, to cover; riding the ABP's 1458.1 slot from its surface form here). Proverbs on the shelf-life of malice: 'the one hiding hatred joins with treachery — but he uncovers his own sins, well-known in the sanhedrin' — concealed enmity works its way out into open record; the cover-up becomes the exposure (Numbers 32:23). The remedy is the reverse motion: 'the one covering his impiety shall not prosper, but the one declaring it shall be loved' (Proverbs 28:13).

  • to uncover
  • to expose

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 26:26 (the one hiding hatred joins with treachery, but he uncovers his own sins, well-known in the sanhedrin).

The figure finds its root-stock in the vine: 'the one abiding in Me and I in him, this one bears much fruit' (John 15:5).

Amos closes every exit: 'if they hide in the top of Carmel, from there I will search out and take them; and if they descend into the depths of the sea, there I will give charge to the dragon' — no summit high enough, no deep deep enough, to be un-found by God (Psalm 139:7-12). The last generation tries the same cave-cover and calls on mountains to fall on them (Revelation 6:15-16); the only safe hiding is the opposite kind — hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3).

  • to hide utterly
  • to conceal

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Amos 9:3 (if they hide in the top of Carmel, from there I will search out and take them; and if they descend from out of my eyes into the depths of the sea, there I will give charge to the dragon, and it will bite them).

Love for God's word measured by what its abandonment costs the lover.
