For the Septuagint (ABP) words at this number, see G2218.1–G2218.2 below.

In the burden of Egypt: 'all the ones making the beer shall grieve, and the souls shall be pained' — where the MT mourns 'all who work for wages, grieved in soul,' the LXX hears Egypt's brewers specifically, reading the Hebrew consonants as shekar, strong drink (Isaiah 19:10). Either way the oracle's target holds: every industry of the Nile — fishers, weavers, brewers — fails together when the LORD dries the river (Isaiah 19:5-10), until the astonishing turn: 'Blessed be Egypt my people' (Isaiah 19:25).

beer
barley-drink

Septuagint usage

The one offering that welcomes leaven: 'with leavened bread he shall offer his gift, with a sacrifice of praise of his deliverance' — the thank-offering (todah), where ordinary risen bread joins the altar-feast because this sacrifice is eaten in fellowship, not burned for atonement (Leviticus 7:13-15; contrast Leviticus 2:11). The LXX's phrase here, 'sacrifice of praise' (θυσία αἰνέσεως), is the exact expression Hebrews takes up for the church's continual offering: 'through Him let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God' (Hebrews 13:15).

leavened

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Leviticus 7:13 (with leavened bread loaves he shall offer his gift, with a sacrifice of praise of his deliverance).

a taking alive
capture

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Numbers 21:35 (they struck Og and his sons and all his people, until there was none of his left for taking alive — and they inherited his land); Deuteronomy 2:34 (we seized all Sihon's cities at that time, and utterly destroyed them — there was no one left for taking alive).

The third spirit-petition of the Miserere: 'restore to me the exultation of your deliverance, and support me with a governing spirit.' The Hebrew asks for a 'willing' spirit; the Greek asks for a ruling one — a spirit that governs the man who could not govern himself on the palace roof (2 Samuel 11:2). David's psalm climbs from 'right spirit' (Psalm 51:10) through 'your Holy Spirit' (Psalm 51:11) to this: forgiveness that ends in restored government — 'as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God' (Romans 8:14).

governing
princely

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Psalms 51:12 (give back to me the exultation of your deliverance, and support me with a governing spirit).

In the smaller provinces also, which were so to speak appendages of the greater, he discharged the functions of governor of the province; and such was the relation of the procurator of Judaea to the governor of Syria.

ἥγημα (hēgēma)

(EE-ghee-mah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a leading, the initiative of command (from ἡγέομαι, to lead). From the eagle-riddle: 'the great eagle, great-winged, long-stretched, full of claws, who has the leading to enter into Lebanon — and he took the choice of the cedar' (Ezekiel 17:3-4) — Nebuchadnezzar plucking Jehoiachin from Jerusalem's cedar-crown. But the riddle's last move outranks every eagle: 'I myself will take from the top of the cedar... and plant it on a high mountain, and every bird shall rest in its shade' (Ezekiel 17:22-23) — the sprig-King whose kingdom Jesus describes in the same image (Mark 4:32).

leading
initiative of command

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezekiel 17:3 (the great eagle, having large wings, long in stretching out, full of claws, who has the leading to enter into Lebanon — even he took the choice of the cedar).

G2233.2

ἡγητέον (hēgēteon)

(ee-ghee-TEH-on)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verbal adjective — 'to be reckoned, must be esteemed' (from ἡγέομαι in its sense of counting, esteeming — Paul's verb at Philippians 3:8). Proverbs' assay of false generosity: 'silver given with treachery is to be reckoned as a potsherd; smooth lips cover a distressed heart' — the gift weighed not by its metal but its motive: treacherous silver assays out as broken clay. The pairing of shining surface and hidden interior is the diagnostic Jesus applies to whitewashed tombs (Matthew 23:27).

to be reckoned
to be esteemed (as)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 26:23 (silver given with treachery is as a potsherd to be esteemed; smooth lips cover a distressed heart).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective (cf. ἡδέως, G2234, gladly, and ἡδονή, G2237, pleasure); sweet, pleasant, agreeable — and, of persons in Proverbs, pleasure-bent. Proverbs' warning stands beside the Song's delight: "sweet to a man is the bread of deceit — afterward his mouth is filled with gravel."

Septuagint usage

8 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 20:17 (sweet to a man is the bread of deceit, but afterward his mouth is filled with gravel); Song of Solomon 2:14 (let me hear your voice, for your voice is sweet and your appearance beautiful); Jeremiah 31:26 (I awoke and looked, and my sleep was sweet to me — inside the new-covenant oracle); Proverbs 14:23 (the pleasure-bent and indolent shall be in want).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun from ἡδύνω (to sweeten — see G2237.1); a sweetening: spice, aromatic. The spices of the sanctuary's two compounds — the holy anointing oil and the pure incense — and the spices of Sheba's queen, never again brought in such abundance.

Septuagint usage

8 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 30:23 (take for yourself spices — the flowering myrrh, cinnamon, and calamus of the holy anointing oil); Exodus 30:34 (spices for the pure holy incense — stacte, onycha, galbanum, frankincense); 1 Kings 10:10 (the queen of Sheba's gift — no such spices ever came again in abundance); Ecclesiastes 10:1 (dead flies putrefy a preparation of spiced oil — so a little folly outweighs honored wisdom).

G2238.3

ἡδυσμός (hēdysmos)

(ee-dees-MOS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a sweetening, aromatic quality (from ἡδύς, sweet — kin of the ἡδύσματα, 'spices,' opening this same verse). In the incense formula: 'take to yourself spices — balsam, and onycha, and galbanum of sweetening, and transparent frankincense, equal to equal.' Galbanum by itself is the recipe's pungent, bitter note; compounded, it deepens and holds the sweetness — the bitter ingredient prescribed, not tolerated. In the sanctuary's own symbolism the compound is prayer (Psalm 141:2; Revelation 8:3-4): the acrid petitions belong in the blend, made fragrant by the altar they burn on.

sweetening
aromatic quality

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 30:34 (take to yourself spices — balsam, and onycha, and galbanum of sweetening, and transparent frankincense; equal to equal it will be).

ἡδύφωνος (hēdyphōnos)

(ee-DEE-fo-nos)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — sweet-voiced (ἡδύς, sweet + φωνή, voice). God's verdict on Ezekiel's audience: 'you are to them as the sound of a sweet-voiced, well-tuned psaltery — they hear your words, and in no way do they do them.' The prophet reduced to a concert; attendance mistaken for obedience. The Lord's parable of the two builders draws the same line between hearing-with-pleasure and doing (Matthew 7:24-27; James 1:22-24) — and Ezekiel's sentence ends with the audit: 'when it comes, they will know a prophet was among them' (Ezekiel 33:33).

sweet-voiced
melodious

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezekiel 33:32 (and you become to them as the sound of a sweet-sounding, well-tuned psaltery; and they shall hear your words, but in no way shall they do them).

G2238.5

ηδώ (ēdō)

(ee-DO)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Loanword — a Hebrew word of Elihu's storm-speech carried over in Greek letters rather than translated; the ABP glosses 'light' (Hebrew אוֹרוֹ, 'his light,' the lightning of this passage), while the form also mirrors אֵדוֹ, 'his mist' — the rain-vapor of Job 36:27 and Eden's watering mist (Genesis 2:6). 'Behold, He stretches out upon it His light, and covers the roots of the sea' — Elihu's picture of a God whose storm reaches from the cloud-tops to the sea-floor, prelude to the whirlwind that answers Job in person (Job 38:1, 24-25).

light (Heb. 'oro)
mist (Heb. 'edo)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 36:30 (behold, He stretches out upon it light, and He covers the roots of the sea).

ηθάμ (ētham)

(ee-THAHM)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Loanword — the Hebrew אֵיתָן ('etan, perennial, ever-flowing), transliterated: 'You tore open the springs and torrents; You dried the ever-flowing rivers.' Asaph's creation-and-exodus catalogue holds both directions of the same sovereignty — water torn open from rock for the thirsty (Exodus 17:6) and the perennial Jordan dried for the crossing (Joshua 3:13-17, where the Hebrew of this word describes the river's normal full flood). The God who owns day and night (Psalm 74:16) opens and closes rivers as arguments for saving His people again.

ever-flowing ('etan)
perennial (of rivers)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Psalms 74:15 (You tore open the springs and rushing streams; You dried the rivers of continuance).

Verb — to be exposed to the sun (from ἥλιος, sun); participle here of the seven sons of Saul hanged before the LORD at Gibeah: 'he entombed the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son, and the bones of the ones exposed to the sun.' Behind the burial stands Rizpah, spreading sackcloth on the rock from harvest until the rains, keeping birds and beasts off the bodies (2 Samuel 21:10) — a mother's vigil that moved a king to gather and bury, 'and God heeded the land after these things' (2 Samuel 21:14). The law under the scene: the hanged man must not remain exposed, for he is cursed (Deuteronomy 21:23) — the curse Christ exhausted on the tree and was buried before sundown (Galatians 3:13; John 19:31).

to be exposed to the sun
hung out in the sun

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Samuel 21:14 (and he entombed the bones of Saul and of Jonathan his son, and the bones of the ones being exposed to the sun, in the land of Benjamin, in the tomb of Kish his father; and God heeded to the land after these things).

(hay-lee'-as | hay-LEE-as | ay-LEE-as)

Definition

my God is Jehovah; of Hebrew origin (H452); Helias (i.e., Elijah), an Israelite; Elias.

The Old Testament prophet Elijah

Note

He was born at Thisbe, the unflinching champion of the theocracy in the reigns of the idolatrous kings Ahab and Ahaziah.

ἡμέρα (hēméra)

(hay-mer'-ah | hay-MEH-ra | ay-MAY-ra)

Definition

feminine (with G5610 implied) of a derivative of ἧμαι (to sit; akin to the base of G1476) meaning tame, i.e. gentle; day, i.e., (literally) the time space between dawn and dark, or the whole 24 hours (but several days were usually reckoned by the Jews as inclusive of the parts of both extremes); figuratively, a period (always defined more or less clearly by the context); age, + alway, (mid-)day (by day), daily, + for ever, judgment, (day) time, while, years.

the day, used of the natural day, or the interval between sunrise and sunset, as distinguished from and contrasted with the night

used of time in general, i.e., the days of his life.

Note

Any part of a day is counted as a whole day; therefore the expression "three days and three nights" does not mean literally three whole days but rather at least one whole day plus part of two other days. It is evident that this is an idiom used by the Jews, even in Old Testament times (compare 1 Samuel 30:12 against 1 Samuel 30:13 and Esther 4:16 against Esther 5:1).

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to be still, sit in stunned calm.

to be still
to sit calmed

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezra 9:3 (as I heard this word, I tore my garments, and trembled, and plucked the hair of my head and my beard — and I sat down for calming); Ezra 9:4 (all who trembled at the word of the God of Israel gathered to me over this breach-of-contract of the resettlement — and I sat calming myself until the evening sacrifice).

Ἡρώδης (Hērṓdēs)

(hay-ro'-dace | hay-ROH-thase | ay-ROH-thase)

Definition

heroic; compound of ἥρως (a "hero") and G1491; heroic; Herod, the name of four Jewish kings; Herod.

the name of a royal family that flourished among the Jews in the times of Christ and the Apostles
- Herod the Great (the ruler of Judaea when Jesus Christ was born
- Herod surnamed "Antipas," the son of Herod the Great, (the ruler during the latter part of Jesus' earthly life
- Herod Agrippa I, the son of Aristobulus and Berenice and grandson of Herod the Great, (he ordered James to be executed and imprisoned Peter)
- Herod Agrippa II (referred to in the New Testament simply as Agrippa), son of Herod Agrippa I (he was almost persuaded to become a Christian by Paul's arguments)

Note

Herod the Great was the son of Antipater of Idumaea. Appointed king of Judaea 40 BC by the Roman Senate at the suggestion of Antony and with the consent of Octavian, he at length overcame the great opposition which the country made to him and took possession of the kingdom 37 BC; and after the battle of Actium, he was confirmed by Octavian, whose favor he ever enjoyed. He was brave and skilled in war, learned and sagacious; but also extremely suspicious and cruel. Hence he destroyed the entire royal family of Hasmonaeans, put to death many of the Jews that opposed his government, and proceeded to kill even his dearly beloved wife Mariamne of the Hasmonaean line and his two sons she had borne him. By these acts of bloodshed, and especially by his love and imitation of Roman customs and institutions and by the burdensome taxes imposed upon his subjects, he so alienated the Jews that he was unable to regain their favor by his splendid restoration of the temple and other acts of munificence. He died at the age of 70 in the 37th year of his reign, the 4th before the Dionysian era. In his closing years, John the Baptist and Christ were born; Matthew narrates that he commanded all the male children under two years old in Bethlehem to be slain. Herod Antipas was the son of Herod the Great and Malthace, a Samaritan woman. After the death of his father he was appointed by the Romans tetrarch of Galilee and Peraea. His first wife was the daughter of Aretas, king of Arabia; but he subsequently repudiated her and took to himself Herodias, the wife of his brother Herod Philip; and in consequence Aretas, his father-in-law, made war against him and conquered him. He cast John the Baptist into prison because John had rebuked him for this unlawful connection; and afterwards, at the instigation of Herodias, he ordered him to be beheaded. Induced by her, too, he went to Rome to obtain from the emperor the title of king. But in consequence of the accusations brought against him by Herod Agrippa I, Caligula banished him (AD 39) to Lugdunum in Gaul, where he seems to have died. He was light minded, sensual and vicious. Herod Agrippa I was the son of Aristobulus and Berenice, and grandson of Herod the Great. After various changes in fortune, he gained the favor of Caligula and Claudius to such a degree that he gradually obtained the government of all of Palestine, with the title of king. He died at Caesarea, AD 44, at the age of 54, in the seventh (or the 4th, reckoning from the extension of his dominions by Claudius) year of his reign, just after having ordered James the apostle, son of Zebedee, to be slain, and Peter to be cast into prison (see Acts 12:21) (Herod) Agrippa II, son of Herod Agrippa I. When his father died he was a youth of seventeen. In AD 48 he received from Claudius Caesar the government of Chalcis, with the right of appointing the Jewish high priests, together with the care and oversight of the temple at Jerusalem. Four years later Claudius took from him Chalcis and gave him instead a larger domain, of Batanaea, Trachonitis, and Gaulanitis, with the title of king. To those reigns Nero, in AD 53, added Tiberias and Taricheae and Peraean Julias, with fourteen neighbouring villages. He is mentioned in Acts 25 and 26. In the Jewish war, although he strove in vain to restrain the fury of the seditious and bellicose populace, he did not desert to the Roman side. After the fall of Jerusalem, he was vested with praetorian rank and kept the kingdom entire until his death, which took place in the third year of the emperor Trajan, (the 73rd year of his life, and the 52nd of his reign). He was the last representative of the Herodian dynasty.
