Qoheleth on what corruption costs the corrupt: 'extortion drives the wise man mad, and destroys his noble heart' (Ecclesiastes 7:7) — the bribe's deepest casualty is not the victim's purse but the taker's nobility; a heart bred for generosity gone feral.

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list.

An Egyptian steward preaching providence to trembling brothers: the account is not what they feared; grace has already balanced it (Genesis 43:18; Romans 8:31-33).

  • as approved

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to be in good bodily condition, enjoy health (εὖ + ἔχω, to be well). Proverbs' psychosomatic axiom: 'a glad heart makes for good health, but a distressed man's bones dry up' (Proverbs 17:22) — joy as physiology, grief as drought in the skeleton. Scripture never treats cheer as ornament: 'the joy of the LORD is your strength' (Nehemiah 8:10), and the Physician's first prescription is habitually 'take heart' (Matthew 9:2, 22).

  • to be in good health
  • to thrive bodily

Septuagint usage

Hebrews reads all fatherly discipline this way: 'for our profit, that we might partake of His holiness... afterward the peaceable fruit' (Hebrews 12:10-11; Ephesians 6:4).

  • of good hope
  • confident

Septuagint usage

The jeweler's proverb: 'in a gold earring a very costly sardius is bound — so a wise word to a heedful ear' (Proverbs 25:12) — the setting completes the stone; counsel's worth is realized only in an ear prepared to wear it. Half of wisdom is the hearing of it: 'let the wise one hear, and he will add to his learning' (Proverbs 1:5; Luke 8:18 — 'take heed how you hear').

  • heedful
  • readily hearing

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 25:12 (in an ear-ring of gold a very costly sardius is bound; so a wise word to a heedful ear).

(ev-thah-LEH-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to thrive, flourish luxuriantly (εὖ + θάλλω, to bloom). Nebuchadnezzar's own preface to his humbling: 'I, Nebuchadnezzar, was prospering in my house, and thriving upon my throne' (Daniel 4:4) — the memoir's first-person calm before the dream, the flourishing that made the warning necessary. Twelve months of patience later the boast comes and the reason leaves (Daniel 4:29-33); the restored king's conclusion is the chapter's point: 'the ones walking in pride He is able to abase' (Daniel 4:37).

  • to thrive
  • to flourish

Septuagint usage

(ev-thah-LEES)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — flourishing, luxuriant (εὖ + θάλλω, to bloom). From the dream-tree's description as Daniel repeats it to its subject: 'its leaves flourishing, and its fruit abundant, and nourishment for all in it... it is you, O king' (Daniel 4:21-22) — the flourishing itself is real, sheltering beasts and birds; the sentence falls on the root's pride, not the leaves' usefulness. The stump is banded, not burned (Daniel 4:26, 'your kingdom shall be kept for you, from when you know that the heavens rule') — flourishing restored on the far side of humbling.

  • flourishing
  • luxuriant

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Daniel 4:21 (and its leaves flourishing, and its fruit abundant, and a nourishment to all by it).

The holy-mountain psalm's double confession: 'O LORD our God, you heeded them; O God, you became propitious to them — yet punishing over all their practices' (Psalm 99:8) — Moses, Aaron, and Samuel's God forgiving the men and judging the deeds in the same breath, Exodus 34:6-7 compressed into one verse.

Hosea's vine-audit: 'Israel is a grapevine with goodly branches, her fruit prospering — according to the multitude of her fruits she multiplied the altars' (Hosea 10:1) — fruitfulness itself the fuel of apostasy, every good harvest funding another idol-pillar. The vine that spent its increase on other gods sets up the vineyard-songs' grief (Isaiah 5:1-4) and the true Vine's claim: fruit that remains grows only by abiding (John 15:1-5, 16).

  • to branch luxuriantly
  • to put out good tendrils

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Hosea 10:1 (Israel is a grapevine having good vine branches, her fruit prospering; according to the multitude of her fruits he multiplied the altars).

εὔκολος (eukolos)

(EV-ko-los)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — easy, agreeable, well-tempered (εὖ + κόλον; the classical opposite of δύσκολος, hard to please). Absalom's gate-craft: 'behold, your words are good and agreeable — but there is no one hearing you from the king' (2 Samuel 15:3) — every plaintiff flattered, every case 'good,' and the throne's absence inserted like a splinter, 'and Absalom stole the heart of the men of Israel' (2 Samuel 15:6). Flattery plus manufactured grievance is the oldest usurper's kit; the true King's gate stands open without it (2 Samuel 15:4; Psalm 72:12-14).

  • agreeable
  • well-tempered

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Samuel 15:3 (behold, your words are good and well-tempered; but there is no one hearing you from the king).

(EV-lah-los)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — well-spoken, fluent, glib (εὖ + λαλέω, to speak). Zophar's opening jab: 'the one saying many things shall also hear in turn — or does the well-spoken one imagine himself to be just?' (Job 11:2) — eloquence mistaken for righteousness, the debate's standing temptation on both sides of Job's ash heap. The verdict-scene inverts it: the glib comforters need Job's sacrifice and prayer, 'for you have not spoken rightly before me as my servant Job has' (Job 42:7-8; Matthew 12:37).

  • well-spoken

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — of goodly size, imposingly large (εὖ + μέγεθος, magnitude). Israel's first king at first sight: 'Saul — a huge, goodly man; and there was not among the sons of Israel one better than he: head and shoulders high above all the land' (1 Samuel 9:2) — the stature that answered the people's request for a king 'like all the nations' (1 Samuel 8:5, 20). The sequel writes the correction over this verse: 'man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks on the heart' (1 Samuel 16:7) — and the kingdom passes to the shepherd nobody thought to summon (1 Samuel 16:11-13).

  • of goodly size

Proverbs' portrait of the unstable mouth: 'a man changeable of tongue will fall into evils' — set beside the hard-hearted man who 'does not meet with good things.' Where the MT reads a 'perverse' tongue, the LXX reads a turning one: speech that shifts with the audience. James diagnoses the same organ — blessing and cursing from the one mouth (James 3:9-10) — against the God with whom 'there is no variation or shadow of turning' (James 1:17).

  • easily changing
  • fickle

Septuagint usage

Verb — to be moldy, mildewed (from εὐρώς, mold); participle here of the Gibeonites' stage-props: sandals mended, garments worn, 'and the bread loaves of their provisions were dry and moldy and worm-eaten.' The costume worked because Israel judged by the props: 'they took of their provisions, and did not ask counsel of the mouth of the LORD' (Joshua 9:14) — evidence examined, God unconsulted, and a treaty sworn that could not be unsworn (Joshua 9:19).

The name the LORD Himself gave: 'a beautiful olive tree, well-shaded to the sight, the LORD called your name; at the sound of its lopping, a fire was lit upon it, and her tender branches were made useless' (Jeremiah 11:16) — the covenant tree named for the shelter it gave, then burned for the covenant it broke.

  • well-shaded

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to be stable, settled, at ease (εὖ + ἵστημι-family, standing well); participle here of Kedar in the sword-oracle: 'rise up and ascend upon a stable nation, sitting down at ease, which has no doors nor bars — they rest alone.' The security is the target: no walls invited the raid (Jeremiah 49:32). Settledness without defenses before God is the posture the prophets keep flagging (Ezekiel 38:11; Zephaniah 1:12) — 'while they are saying, Peace and safety' (1 Thessalonians 5:3).

  • to be settled

(ev-STO-khos)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adverb — with good aim, on target (εὖ + στόχος, mark). The arrow that ended Ahab: 'a man stretched tight a bow with good aim, and struck the king of Israel between the lungs and the chest plate.' The Hebrew says the opposite — he drew 'in his simplicity,' at random (2 Chronicles 18:33 MT); the Greek names what the randomness concealed. Both are true: aimless to the archer, aimed by the God whose word through Micaiah the disguised king was fleeing (2 Chronicles 18:16, 34) — no disguise outmaneuvers a decreed arrow.

  • with good aim

Court wisdom: 'an intelligent servant is acceptable to a king, and by his own versatility he removes dishonor' — the gift of turning a situation before it hardens against him.

The close of a LXX counsel absent from the Hebrew of Proverbs 25:10: 'favor and friendship set free... but keep your ways conciliatory.' The whole passage urges settling with a neighbor rather than airing the quarrel (Proverbs 25:8-9) — the road Jesus commands: 'agree with your adversary quickly, while you are with him on the way' (Matthew 5:25).

  • easily reconciled
  • conciliatory

Septuagint usage

The locust's credential in Agur's list: 'the locust is kingless, yet she marches out from one word of command in good order' — an army with no throne and perfect ranks, shaming nations that have thrones and no order. The church borrows the same military grammar: 'let all things be done decently and in order' (1 Corinthians 14:40; Colossians 2:5).

Definition

The two markets of Proverbs: 'you shall seek wisdom with bad men and not find it; but good sense from the intelligent is easily had' — the same commodity unobtainable in one company and effortless in the other. The variable is not the seeker's brains but his address; 'the mocker seeks wisdom and finds none' stands one clause earlier (Proverbs 14:6a; James 1:5 gives the open counter-offer).

  • easy
  • ready at hand

The last verse of Daniel 11: 'he shall pitch the tent of his royal pavilion between the seas, at the holy mountain of glory — and he shall come to his end, and there shall be no one rescuing him.' The tyrant plants an emperor's audience-hall in tents at Zion's doorstep, and the sentence ends him mid-encampment: no rescuer for the man who made himself unrescuable (Daniel 11:45; 2 Thessalonians 2:8).

  • royal pavilion ('appeden)

The Hinnom-valley indictment: they built the shrines of Baal 'to offer their sons and their daughters to Molech — which I did not command, and it did not ascend upon my heart — to seduce Judah to sin.' The valley of this verse, Gehenna, becomes Scripture's own name for hell (Jeremiah 32:35; Matthew 5:22).

'Because I cleansed you and you were not cleansed, you shall not be cleansed until I have satisfied my rage' — refusal of the lesser purging summons the greater (Ezekiel 24:13; Malachi 3:2-3).
