θέσις (thesis)

(THEH-sis)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a placing, established position (from τίθημι, to put — the verse ends with the same verb: 'to put my name there'). The one-tribe mercy inside the kingdom's tearing: 'to his son I will give the two scepters, so that there might be a position for my servant David all the days before me in Jerusalem, the city I chose to put my name there.' Where the Hebrew promises David a 'lamp' (nir), the Greek promises him a placement — a standing spot before God's face that Rehoboam's folly cannot revoke (1 Kings 11:36; 2 Samuel 7:15-16). Kings will trace every spared dynasty to this clause (2 Kings 8:19) until the Son of David holds the position permanently (Luke 1:32-33).

  • placing
  • established position

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 1 Kings 11:36 (but to his son I will give the two chiefdoms, so that there might be a designation to my servant David all the days before me in Jerusalem, the city which I chose for myself to put my name there).

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 1:8 ("hear, O son, the laws of your father — and do not thrust away the rules of your mother"); Proverbs 6:20 ("O son, keep the laws of your father — and do not thrust away the rules of your mother").

  • the name of an insurgent mentioned in Gamaliel's speech before the Jewish council at the time of the arraignment of the apostles

Note

He appeared, according to Luke's account, at the head of about four hundred men. He was probably one of the insurrectionary chiefs or fanatics by whom the land was overrun in the last year of Herod's reign. Josephus speaks of a Theudas who played a similar part at the time of Claudius, about AD 44, but the Theudas mentioned by Luke must be a different person from the one spoken of by Josephus.

(theh-o-ree-TOS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — visible, conspicuous to view (from θεωρέω, to view). The he-goat of Daniel's vision 'came from the southwest over the face of all the earth and did not touch the ground — and the he-goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes.' The interpretation is given in the chapter itself: the goat is Greece, the notable horn its first king (Daniel 8:5, 21) — Alexander, sketched two centuries early, down to the speed and the sudden breaking of the horn 'at the height of its power' (Daniel 8:8). Empires arrive conspicuous and snap on schedule; the kingdom not made with hands outlasts the whole menagerie (Daniel 2:44).

  • conspicuous
  • visible

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Daniel 8:5 (and behold, a he-goat of the goats came from the southwest upon the face of all the earth, and was not touching the earth; and to the he-goat was a horn which may be viewed between his eyes).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — female (from the family of θηλάζω, to nurse). A boundary-word in both occurrences: from male unto female the defiled must be sent outside the camp where the LORD dwells — and no carved likeness may be made, of male or female, to stand for the God who showed no form at Horeb.

  • female

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Numbers 5:3 (from male unto female send them outside the camp — and in no way shall they defile their camps, in which I dwell among them); Deuteronomy 4:16 (that you should not act lawlessly and make to yourselves a carved likeness — any image, a representation of male or female).

θηλυμανής (thēlymanēs)

(thee-lee-mah-NEES)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — mad after females (θῆλυς, female + μαίνομαι, to rave). Jeremiah's diagnosis of covenant-fed appetite: 'they became sex-crazed horses, each one neighing over his neighbor's wife.' The verse before supplies the aggravation: 'I filled them full, and they committed adultery' (Jeremiah 5:7-8) — lust not as deprivation but as sated men raving. The prophet's animal image strips the affair of its romance: adultery as instinct enthroned, answered by the question that follows — 'shall I not visit for these things?' (Jeremiah 5:9; Hebrews 13:4).

  • lusting after females
  • stallion-mad

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Jeremiah 5:8 (they became sex-crazed horses; each one was snorting over the wife of his neighbor).

θήρ (thēr)

(THEER)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a wild beast (the poetic simplex behind θηρίον). From Eliphaz's peace-catalogue: 'a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild beasts shall be at peace with you' (Job 5:23) — the friend's theology misapplied to Job's case, yet reciting a hope older and truer than his application: creation un-hostile to the reconciled man. The prophets carry it forward as promise — a covenant with the beasts of the field (Hosea 2:18), the wolf dwelling with the lamb (Isaiah 11:6-9) — and Mark shows the second Adam in the wilderness 'with the wild beasts' (Mark 1:13).

  • wild beast

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a thing hunted, game; also the hunting-snare itself (from θήρα, a hunt). The hunter's catch whose blood must be poured out and covered under the life-is-in-the-blood law — and Qoheleth's grim finding: the woman who is snares, more bitter than death, her heart nets and dragnets.

  • game
  • snare

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Leviticus 17:13 (whoever should hunt a hunt of wild beast or bird which is eaten — he shall pour out its blood and cover it with earth); Ecclesiastes 7:26 (and I find more bitter than death the woman who is snares — her heart dragnets, her hands bonds; the good before God shall be delivered from her, but the sinner shall be seized by her).

θηρευτής (thēreutēs)

(thee-rev-TEES)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a hunter (from θήρα). The two occurrences face opposite ways: the snare of hunters from which the LORD rescues the one dwelling in the shelter of the Most High — and the many hunters the LORD Himself sends to hunt the covenant-breakers from every mountain and hill.

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Psalms 91:3 ("He shall rescue you from the snare of hunters — and from a troubling word"); Jeremiah 16:16 ("after these things I will send many hunters, and they shall hunt them upon every mountain and upon every hill and from the holes of the rocks").

θηριάλωτος (thērialōtos)

(thee-ree-AH-lo-tos)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective from θηρίον (G2342, wild beast) and ἁλίσκομαι (to be caught, taken); taken by wild beasts — flesh torn in the field. The shepherd-law word: Jacob bore the loss of the torn himself rather than charge Laban; Torah bars the torn from Israel's table and from the priests' food.

  • taken (torn) by wild beasts

Septuagint usage

9 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 31:39 ("that torn by beasts I did not bring you — I repaid the loss myself," Jacob to Laban); Exodus 22:13 (the torn brought as evidence — no restitution owed); Exodus 22:31 (holy men to Me — flesh torn by beasts you shall not eat); Ezekiel 44:31 (the priests shall not eat anything dead of itself or taken by beasts).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — devoured by wild beasts (θηρίον, beast + βιβρώσκω, to eat). Judah, pleading before the unrecognized Joseph, quotes his father's twenty-year-old grief: 'one went out from me, and you said, He was devoured by beasts — and I have not seen him until now.' The word carries the whole weight of the brothers' original lie (the bloodied tunic, Genesis 37:31-33), spoken now to the man it was told about. It is the hinge of Judah's transformation: the brother who priced Joseph at twenty shekels (Genesis 37:26-27) now offers himself as slave in Benjamin's place (Genesis 44:33) — the substitute-speech that breaks Joseph's disguise (Genesis 45:1) and prefigures the tribe whose Lion gives Himself for his brothers (Genesis 49:8-10).

  • devoured by beasts
  • beast-eaten

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 44:28 (and the one went forth from me, and you said that he was devoured by wild beasts; and I did not see him as far as now).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a thing treasured up, hoarded gain (from θησαυρίζω, to store up). Proverbs' audit of dishonest wealth: 'the one producing treasures with a lying tongue pursues vanity, and comes unto the snare of death' — gains stored by falsehood classified not as riches but as a trap sprung on the hoarder. The proverb's arc is Judas's arc (Matthew 26:15; 27:5) and the rich fool's (Luke 12:20-21); its cure is the other storing — 'treasures in heaven' (Matthew 6:20), being 'rich toward God.'

  • treasured-up gain
  • hoard

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 21:6 (the one producing treasures by a lying tongue pursues vanity, and comes unto the snare of death).

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a treasury-guard, treasurer (θησαυρός, treasure + φύλαξ, guard). From the Aramaic memorandum vindicating the temple rebuild: the vessels of gold and silver that Nebuchadnezzar carried to Babylon 'Cyrus the king brought forth from the temple in Babylon and gave to Sheshbazzar the treasurer' (Ezra 5:14; the inventory itself at Ezra 1:9-11 — counted out piece by piece). Two empires and seventy years could not lose one basin: what was carried into exile under guard comes home under guard (Isaiah 52:11-12) — the LORD keeping ledger over His holy things, and over His exiled people with them (Jeremiah 29:10).

  • treasurer
  • treasury-guard

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezra 5:14 (Cyrus the king brought them forth from the temple, the one in Babylon, and gave them to Sheshbazzar, to the treasurer, to the one over the treasury).

Noun — a banquet-company, revel-club (the Greek term for a festive confraternity; here rendering the Hebrew marzeach, the feasting-house society).

The prophet's emptied social calendar is itself the oracle: where peace is withdrawn, both funerals and parties have lost their meaning — until the bridegroom's voice, silenced here, returns in the new covenant city (Jeremiah 33:10-11; Revelation 18:23 with 19:9).

  • revel-company
  • banquet-club (marzeach)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Jeremiah 16:5 (thus says the LORD, You should not enter into their revelry, and you should not go to lament, and you should not mourn them; for I have removed my peace from this people).

The demolition order over Zion-at-ease: 'behold, the LORD gives charge, and he shall strike the great house with fractures, and the small house with rents' (Amos 6:11) — one decree, two demolitions, no address exempt. The chapter's targets are the couched and complacent, 'not grieved over the ruin of Joseph' (Amos 6:1-6); the houses that would not feel a brother's breaking are themselves broken — great and small alike before the God who shows no partiality (Amos 3:15; 1 Peter 4:17).

  • fracture

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Amos 6:11 (for behold, the LORD gives charge, and he shall strike the great house with fractures, and the small house with torn pieces).

The dirge ends kingless: 'she has no strong rod, a scepter to rule' (Ezekiel 19:14) — the vacancy filled only by the Lion of Judah who conquers as a slain Lamb (Genesis 49:9-10; Revelation 5:5-6).

The friend's sentence lands nearer himself than Job: it is the three comforters whose confident words the LORD finally indicts — 'you have not spoken of me what is right' (Job 11:12; 42:7).

ἰατής (iatēs)

(ee-ah-TEES)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a healer (by-form of ἰατρός, physician, which opens the same line; both from ἰάομαι, to heal). Job's malpractice verdict on his comforters: 'you are unjust physicians, and bad healers all' — men who arrived to treat grief and instead defended their theory at the patient's expense (Job 13:4; 16:2 'miserable comforters'). Their silence had been medicine (Job 2:13); their diagnoses were quackery. The contrast stands ready: the Physician who comes for the sick and not the well (Mark 2:17), whose wounds do the healing (Isaiah 53:5).

  • healer

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 13:4 (but you are unjust physicians, and bad healers all).

G2394.2

ἰατρεία (iatreia)

(ee-ah-TREE-ah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — healing, cure (from ἰάομαι, to heal). The clinical line in Jehoram's obituary: 'after all these things the LORD struck him in his belly with a sickness in which there is no healing' — the king who murdered his six brothers to secure the throne (2 Chronicles 21:4, 13) dies over two years of incurable disease and departs 'without being desired' (2 Chronicles 21:18-20). The chronicler's grammar is precise: some conditions have no cure because they are sentences — and the only escape from that category is the God who wounds and binds up (Deuteronomy 32:39; Hosea 6:1).

  • healing
  • cure

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Chronicles 21:18 (and after all these things the LORD struck him in his belly with a sickness in which there is no healing).

G2394.3

ἰατρεῖα (iatreia)

(ee-ah-TREE-ah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — physician's fees, costs of treatment (neuter plural of the healing-word one entry above, in its concrete sense: what the cure costs). From the assault-law of the covenant code: if the injured man rises and walks outside on his staff, the striker is cleared of blood — 'except he shall pay for his idle time, and the physician's fees' (Exodus 21:19). Torah prices violence honestly: the blow's full bill includes the victim's lost days and his healing. Restitution as embodied repentance runs from this clause to Zacchaeus's fourfold (Luke 19:8).

  • physician's fees
  • cost of healing

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 21:19 (if in arising, the man should walk outside upon his cane, the one striking will be innocent; except he shall pay for his idleness, and the physician's fee).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb from ἰατρός (G2395, physician); to treat medically, doctor, heal. Jeremiah's diagnostic verb: the false prophets who "treated the wound of My people lightly, saying Peace, peace," over against the LORD's own promise, "I will treat you and heal you of your wound."

  • to treat medically, doctor
  • to heal, tend a wound

Septuagint usage

9 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Kings 8:29 (Joram returned to Jezreel to be treated for his wounds); Jeremiah 8:11 (they treated the fracture of the daughter of My people lightly, saying, Peace, peace — and there is no peace); Jeremiah 30:17 ("I will bring up your healing; from your grievous wound I will treat you, says the LORD"); Jeremiah 51:9 ("we treated Babylon, and she was not healed").

ἰγνύα (ignya)

(ig-NEE-ah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — the ham, hollow of the knee. Carmel's opening question rides on this word: 'How long will you go lame on both your hams? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him. And the people did not answer a word' (1 Kings 18:21) — Israel pictured as a runner limping on both legs because it will commit to neither. The day ends with the limp healed by fire: 'the LORD, He is God' (1 Kings 18:39). The alternative to the double limp is the single allegiance Scripture keeps demanding: choose this day (Joshua 24:15); no man can serve two masters (Matthew 6:24).

  • ham
  • hollow of the knee

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 1 Kings 18:21 (for how long will you be lame upon both your hams? If the LORD is God, go after him! But if Baal, go after him).

ἰδιοποιέομαι (idiopoieomai)

(ee-dee-o-poy-EH-o-my)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to make one's own, appropriate to oneself (ἴδιος, one's own + ποιέω, to make). The LXX's word for Absalom's theft: 'so Absalom did to all Israel who came for judgment to the king — and Absalom made the heart of the men of Israel his own property' (2 Samuel 15:6). The method is itemized just before: intercept the plaintiffs, flatter the case, lament the vacancy, kiss the hand (2 Samuel 15:2-5) — hearts annexed by a man playing judge on the road to playing king. The true Son wins hearts by the opposite route: not grasping, but emptying Himself (Philippians 2:6-7; John 13:1).

  • to appropriate
  • to make one's own

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Samuel 15:6 (and Absalom did according to this thing to all Israel, to the ones coming for a judgment to the king; and Absalom adopted the heart of the men of Israel).
