Hezekiah's waterworks: facing Sennacherib, 'he took counsel with his elders and his mighty men to stop the waters of the springs outside the city — and they vigorously assisted him' (2 Chronicles 32:3-4). Engineering and theology in one administration: the same king who cuts the Siloam conduit also speaks the chronicle's best sentence — 'with him is an arm of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God, to help us and to fight our battles' (32:8). Stopped springs and rested hearts are not rivals; prudence labors while faith leans (Nehemiah 4:9; Psalm 127:1).

to assist vigorously

(see-neh-TOS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adverb — with understanding, skillfully (from συνετός, discerning). The psalmist's summons to praise that engages the mind — "God is king of all the earth: sing praises with understanding" — and Isaiah's rebuke of the clay that appraises its potter as though itself the expert.

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to rejoice together with, share gladness (σύν, with, + εὐφραίνω, to gladden). The fidelity-charge at its warmest: 'let your fountain of water be yours alone — and rejoice together with the wife of your youth' (Proverbs 5:18). The chapter does not fight the strange woman's offer with prohibition only but with a better feast at home: shared gladness is the commanded defense (5:19). Marital joy is doctrine, not indulgence — 'rejoice' is an imperative — and it images a higher wedding: 'as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you' (Isaiah 62:5; Ephesians 5:25-27; John 3:29).

to rejoice together
to share gladness with

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 5:18 (let the spring of your water be to you your own, and be glad with the wife of your youth).

συνῆλιξ (synēlix)

(see-NEE-liks)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — of the same age, contemporary (σύν, with, + ἧλιξ, one's age-mate; the slot sits beside συνηλικιώτης — the NT's 'contemporaries' at Galatians 1:14 — by numbering). The chief eunuch's fear: 'lest the king see your faces more downcast than the boys of your own age, and you endanger my head' (Daniel 1:10). Court life runs on peer-comparison — faces audited against contemporaries — and Daniel proposes the ten-day test on precisely those terms: 'compare our appearance' (1:12-13). The vegetables win: fidelity showed on their faces (1:15), and God adds learning and wisdom ten times their cohort's (1:17, 20). Consecration is not deprivation; the unbribed face outshines the banqueted one (Psalm 119:99-100).

contemporary
age-mate

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Daniel 1:10 (lest at any time he should behold your faces looking downcast, more than the boys of your contemporaries, and you should condemn my head to the king).

G4916

συνθάπτω (syntháptō)

Definition

from G4862 and G2290; to inter in company with, i.e., (figuratively) to assimilate spiritually (to Christ by a sepulcher as to sin); bury with.

to bury together with

Note

Paul likens baptism to a burial by which the former sinfulness is buried, i.e., utterly taken away, which is aptly pictured by the immersion of a believer in the waters of baptism.

G4916.1

συνθέλω (synthelō)

(seen-THEH-lo)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to will along with, consent to (σύν, with, + θέλω, to will; the slot sits beside συνθάπτω by numbering only). From the hardest loyalty-statute: if brother, son, daughter, beloved wife, or closest friend secretly entices to other gods — 'you shall not consent to him, and you shall not listen to him' (Deuteronomy 13:6-8). Covenant treason is the one solicitation where intimacy grants no hearing: the dearest voice loses its standing when it bids against the LORD who redeemed from Egypt (13:5, 10). The severity guards the first commandment's first place, and its shape survives into discipleship: 'whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me' (Matthew 10:37; Luke 14:26).

to consent to
to will along with

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Deuteronomy 13:8 (you shall not acquiesce to him, and you shall not hear him, and you shall not spare your eye upon him, and you shall not show mercy upon him, nor shall you shelter him).

G4916.2

σύνθεμα (synthema)

(SEEN-theh-mah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — an agreed arrangement, a compact — here, the agreed collections of the wise (σύν + τίθημι, to place together; genitive plural in the verse). The Preacher's account of the canon he serves: 'the words of the wise are as ox-goads, and as nails firmly planted — which were given by agreement from one shepherd' (Ecclesiastes 12:11). Goads move; nails hold: wise words both prod and fasten. And the editorial miracle is the source-clause — many sayings, assembled collections, one Shepherd behind them all (Psalm 80:1). The doctrine of inspiration in a shepherd's idiom: men spoke, borne along, from a single supplying hand (2 Peter 1:21; 2 Timothy 3:16) — the Shepherd who also says, 'there shall be one flock, one shepherd' (John 10:16).

agreed collection
compact

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ecclesiastes 12:11 (the words of the wise are as the oxgoads, and as nails firmly planted — ones which by agreement were given from one shepherd).

G4916.3

(SEEN-the-sis)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Feminine noun from συντίθημι (G4934, to put together); a compounding, composition — the sacred perfumer's compound: the holy anointing oil and the incense whose composition Israel was forbidden to imitate for itself.

compound, composition (of the holy oil and incense)

Septuagint usage

18 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 30:32 (according to its composition you shall not make any like it — it is holy); Exodus 30:37 (the incense by this composition you shall not make for yourselves); Exodus 31:11; Exodus 35:28.

G4916.4

σύνθετος (synthetos)

(SEEN-theh-toss)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verbal adjective — compounded, blended (σύν + τίθημι — put together of parts). The incense-altar's morning rubric: 'Aaron shall burn upon it incense — compounded, fine — morning by morning; whenever he trims the lamps he shall burn incense on it' (Exodus 30:7). The blend was an apothecary's art of stacte, onycha, galbanum, and frankincense, salted and pure (30:34-35), and legally unique: whoever compounds its like for private perfume is cut off (30:37-38). Worship's fragrance is not a commodity. The compounded cloud read as what it was — 'let my prayer be counted as incense before you' (Psalm 141:2) — until the golden bowls are full of it (Revelation 8:3-4; 5:8).

compounded
blended

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 30:7 (and Aaron shall burn incense upon it — incense compounded, fine — in the morning by morning; whenever he should trim the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it).

Noun — a compact, treaty, agreement made together (σύν + τίθημι — man-made covenants, over against the LORD's διαθήκη). The covenant-with-death of Isaiah 28, the Spirit-less treaties of the Egypt alliance — and the dynastic compacts of Daniel 11 that do not stand.

treaty
compact

Septuagint usage

3 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 28:15 ("we have made a covenant with death, and with Hades treaties — the rushing whip shall not come upon us, for we have made falsehood our hope"); Isaiah 30:1 ("woe, rebellious children, declares the LORD — you carried out counsel not through Me, and treaties not by My Spirit, adding sins to sins"); Daniel 11:6 (after some years they shall ally — the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north to make treaties; but she shall not retain strength of arm).

συνίστωρ (synistōr)

(see-NIS-tor)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — one who knows along with, a joint-witness, confidant (σύν, with, + the ἵστωρ stem, one who knows; the slot sits beside συνιστάω by numbering). Job's leap from the ash-heap: 'even now, behold, my witness is in the heavens, and the one who knows my case is on high' (Job 16:19). Fourteen verses after mocking his comforters as 'miserable comforters' (16:2), Job files his appeal upstairs: someone in heaven knows — sees the whole record, holds his brief. The hope hardens by chapter 19 into 'I know that my Redeemer lives' (19:25); the gospel names the officeholder — an Advocate with the Father (1 John 2:1), a High Priest who always lives to intercede (Hebrews 7:25; Romans 8:34).

joint-witness
one who knows with

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 16:19 (and now behold, my witness is in the heavens, and my joint witness is in the highest).

G4921.2

συννεφέω (synnepheō)

(seen-neh-FEH-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to gather clouds together (σύν, together, + νέφος, cloud). From the covenant of the bow: 'and it shall be, when I gather clouds over the earth, the bow shall be seen in the cloud — and I will remember my covenant' (Genesis 9:14-15). The remarkable grammar: God is the subject of both the storm and the sign. The cloud-gathering that once meant deluge now carries its own disarmament — a war-bow hung in the sky pointing away from the earth, posted 'that I may remember' (9:16): mercy's memorandum written on the weather. The bow returns where the throne is — 'a rainbow round about the throne' (Revelation 4:3; Ezekiel 1:28) — judgment permanently encircled by covenant.

to gather clouds
to overcloud

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 9:14 (and it will be, in my collecting together the clouds upon the earth, the bow will be seen in the cloud).

G4921.3

συννεφής (synnephēs)

(seen-neh-FEES)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — cloud-covered, overcast (σύν + νέφος, cloud — see the sibling verb above). From Moses' final blessing: 'Israel shall dwell alone in confidence; the fountain of Jacob upon grain and wine — and his heaven cloud-covered with dew' (Deuteronomy 33:28). An overcast sky as benediction: clouds not of threat but of moisture, the roof of a watered land (33:13). The dew-blessing is the quiet, daily form of grace — no thunder, only saturation — and it becomes the LORD's own self-description in the prophets: 'I will be as the dew to Israel; he shall blossom as the lily' (Hosea 14:5; Psalm 133:3).

cloud-covered
overcast with dew

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Deuteronomy 33:28 (and Israel shall encamp alone, complying; the fountain of Jacob, with grain and wine; and the heaven on him covered with clouds in dew).

The word appears only at the hinge of the book of Ruth: "behold, your sister-in-law has returned to her people and to her gods; return, you also, after your sister-in-law" — Naomi's release, against which Ruth's clinging vow is spoken.

sister-in-law
co-bride

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ruth 1:15 (twice — "behold, your sister-in-law has returned to her people and to her gods; you also return after your sister-in-law" — and Ruth answers, "your people are my people, and your God my God").

The LORD as attending physician — not amnesty only but tissue-repair, the siege-wound knitted closed (Jeremiah 30:17 — 'I will restore health to you... because they called you an outcast').

Has wisdom arrived at you?' (Job 15:8 — the Hebrew asks whether Job has listened in God's sod, His intimate council). The question is meant to be unanswerable, but the canon answers it: God does admit hearers to His council — the true prophet 'has stood in the council of the LORD' (Jeremiah 23:18), He 'does nothing without revealing his secret to his servants' (Amos 3:7) — and One has heard it all firsthand: the Son from the Father's bosom, who declares Him (John 1:18; 15:15).

The patriarch kept sworn friendships with Amorite neighbors, and they marched with his 318 to recover Lot (14:14, 24).

συρράπτω (syrrhaptō)

(seer-RAP-to)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to stitch together, sew up (σύν + ῥάπτω; the aorist-passive συρραφῇ supplies Job's form, and the ABP groups both occurrences under this one number). Two sewings: the heaven that shall never be 'stitched' — Job's figure for the finality of death's sleep until that impossibility — and the women who sew pillows for every elbow, Ezekiel's image of prophecy tailored for comfort.

Syrtis, the name of two places in the African or Libyan Sea between Carthage and Cyrenaicia, full of shallows and sandbanks, and therefore destructive to ships; the western Syrtis, between the islands Cercina and Meninx (or the promontories of Zeitha and Brachodes), was called Syris minor, the eastern (extending from the promontories of Cephalae on the west to that of Boreum on the east) was called Syris major; this latter must be the one referred to in Acts 27:17, for upon this the ship in which Paul was sailing might easily be cast after leaving Crete

σύσκηνος (syskēnos)

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a tent-mate, fellow-lodger (σύν, with, + σκηνή, tent; the slot sits beside σύρω by numbering only). From the burning-bush commission's strangest promise: 'a woman shall ask of her neighbor and her tent-mate vessels of silver and gold, and clothing... and you shall despoil the Egyptians' (Exodus 3:22). Israel will not slip out as beggars but exit as paid veterans — centuries of unpaid labor settled at the door (Exodus 12:35-36; Psalm 105:37 — 'he brought them out with silver and gold'). And the plunder's destiny sanctifies the oddity: the same gold and fabric become freewill offerings for the tabernacle (Exodus 35:22) — Egypt's wealth re-minted into the house of God (Isaiah 60:5).

tent-mate
fellow-lodger

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 3:22 (but a woman will ask from her neighbor and fellow tent-dweller items of silver, and of gold, and clothes; and you will place them upon your sons and upon your daughters, and you will despoil the Egyptians).

5 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 25:20 (the cherubim's wings stretched above, overshadowing the mercy seat); Exodus 37:9 (the pattern executed in gold); Numbers 4:5 (the veil taken down to cover the ark of the testimony for the journey); Ezekiel 28:16 ("the overshadowing cherub" — cast from the midst of the stones of fire); Hosea 4:13 (sacrifices under oak and poplar — "because the shade is good").

From the famine-lament: 'our skin is blackened like an oven; it shriveled from the face of the blasts of famine' (Lamentations 5:10). The communal complaint reads the siege on the body itself — skin as kiln-scorched parchment, hunger as a hot wind off the desert. Lamentations refuses both denial and despair: the same chapter that logs the shriveled skin closes at the throne — 'but you, O LORD, remain forever... turn us to yourself, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old' (5:19-21; Lamentations 3:22-23).

The Shechem massacre (Genesis 34) is finally adjudicated: the patriarch refuses membership in his sons' conspiracy and curses the anger, not the men (49:7). The scattering pronounced on Levi is later converted into grace — the tribe dispersed as priests and teachers (Deuteronomy 33:9-10) — God's habit of turning even sentences into vocations (Numbers 25:11-13).

The strange woman's trail-report: 'she does not travel the ways of life; her tracks are slippery, and not well known' (Proverbs 5:6). Two data points for the map: her paths never intersect the ways of life, and they cannot be securely walked — footing fails on them by design. The chapter's counter-cartography is exact: 'the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn' (Proverbs 4:18), and the safe track home is the marriage the chapter blesses twelve verses later (5:18-19; Psalm 73:2, 18 — slipperiness is where God sets the wicked, not His own).

The fear-of-man proverb in the LXX's double rendering: 'fearing and being ashamed before men, they shall be tripped up; but the one trusting in the LORD shall be glad. Impiety gives a man a stumble; but the one trusting in the Master shall be kept safe' (Proverbs 29:25 — the Hebrew: 'the fear of man lays a snare'). Man-fearing is load-bearing anxiety that fails exactly when leaned on — Aaron at the calf, Saul before the people, Peter at the fire (Exodus 32:22-24; 1 Samuel 15:24; Luke 22:57-60) — while the LORD-truster stands: 'whoever believes in him shall not be put to shame' (Romans 10:11; Isaiah 51:12).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to wedge fast, bolt shut (from σφήν, wedge). Ehud's escape mechanism in both occurrences: the doors of the upper chamber wedged shut upon Eglon, and the servants finding them wedged and waiting — the delay that let the deliverer slip away.

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Judges 3:23 (Ehud went out through the porch, and shut the doors of the upper room upon him, and wedged them); Judges 3:24 (his servants came and saw — and behold, the doors of the upper room were wedged; and they said, "perhaps he covers his feet in the summer chamber").

G4970.1

σφοδρός (sphodros)

(sfo-DHROS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — vehement, violent (the adjective-slot beside σφόδρα, exceedingly). The Exodus wind-words: the vehement sea-wind that carried off the locusts, the wind that sank the pursuers like lead — and Nehemiah's prayer remembering the stone in vehement waters.

vehement

σφόνδυλος (sphondylos)

(SFON-dee-loss)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a vertebra, the neck-joint (the slot sits beside σφοδρῶς by numbering only). From the two-birds sin-offering of the poor: 'the priest shall bring the one for the sin offering first, and pluck off its head from the neck, but shall not divide it' (Leviticus 5:8) — the tier for the worshiper who cannot afford a lamb (5:7), with a flour-tier below even that (5:11). The rubric's anatomical precision — wrung at the vertebra, body left whole — dignifies the smallest atonement: poverty's offering is not an approximation but a rite with its own exactness, and it atones in full (5:10). The system's sliding scale slides all the way down so that no sinner is priced out (Luke 2:24; 2 Corinthians 8:12).

vertebra
neck-joint

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Leviticus 5:8 (and the priest shall pluck off its head from the neck, and shall not divide it).

(SFEE-rah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun; hammer. Jael's tent-peg hammer; the hammer whose sound was never heard in the building of Solomon's house — the temple rising in silence from stones finished at the quarry; the idol-maker's fastening hammer; and Babylon herself, "the hammer of the whole earth," broken.

hammer
the smith's or workman's maul

Septuagint usage

7 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Judges 4:21 (Jael took the tent peg and the hammer in her hand — and drove the peg through Sisera's temple); 1 Kings 6:7 (the house was built of whole quarry stones — hammer, axe, and every iron tool unheard in the house as it was built); Jeremiah 10:4 (with hammers and nails they fasten the idols, that they not be moved); Jeremiah 50:23 (how the hammer of the whole earth is cut asunder and broken — Babylon among the nations).

G4973.2

σφυροκοπέω (sphyrokopeō)

(sfee-ro-ko-PEH-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to strike with a hammer (σφῦρα, hammer, + κόπτω, to strike). The Song of Deborah's slow-motion verse: 'she stretched out her hand to the peg, and her right hand to the workman's hammer — and she hammered Sisera; she nailed his head; yes, she struck, she nailed his temple' (Judges 5:26). The song replays the tent-scene beat by beat, then holds the frame: 'between her feet he bowed, he fell' (5:27) — the oppressor's head crushed at a woman's feet, in the oldest cadence of the war (Genesis 3:15; Psalm 68:21). Deborah's word to Barak stands fulfilled: the honor of the field went to a woman's hand (Judges 4:9).

to hammer
to strike with a hammer

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Judges 5:26 (she stretched out her hand for a peg, and her right for the hammer of a laborer; and she struck Sisera with a hammer; she nailed his head; yes, she struck, she nailed his temple).

σφυροκόπος (sphyrokopos)

(sfee-ro-KO-poss)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a hammer-smith, forger (σφῦρα, hammer, + κόπτω, to strike). From the genealogy of Cain's city: 'Zillah also bore Tubal-cain, and he was a hammer-smith, a forger of bronze and iron' (Genesis 4:22) — third in the triad of culture-founders with Jabal's herds and tents and Jubal's lyre and pipe (4:20-21). Metallurgy, music, and animal husbandry all rise in the exiled line: common grace is real gift real early. But the chapter prices technology without repentance — the first recorded use of the new craft's edge is Lamech's sword-song of seventy-sevenfold vengeance (4:23-24), answered at last by a seventy-times-seven of forgiveness (Matthew 18:21-22).

hammer-smith
forger

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 4:22 (but Zillah also herself bore Tubal-cain, and he was a hammer-smith brazier of brass and of iron).

σχάζω (schazō)

(SKHAH-zo)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to let go, release — of a trap: to spring (the slot sits beside σφυρόν by numbering only). From the cause-and-effect catechism of Amos: 'will a bird fall to the earth without a fowler? Will a snare spring up from the ground without taking something?' (Amos 3:5). Seven rhetorical questions build one syllogism: effects have causes — 'shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD has not done it?' (3:6) — and the conclusion is vocational: 'the lion has roared; who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken; who can but prophesy?' (3:8). Judgment does not spring at random, and the prophet does not speak on his own trigger; behind both stands the same Hand (3:7).

to spring (of a trap)
to release

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Amos 3:5 (shall a bird fall upon the earth without a fowler? shall a snare be opened up upon the earth without seizing anything?).

σχεδία (schedia)

(skheh-DEE-ah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a raft, barge of lashed timber. The temple's timber came by this word: Hiram's pledge to float cedar and cypress down from Lebanon as rafts by sea to the place Solomon appointed — repeated in the Chronicles parallel to Joppa.

raft
barge

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: 1 Kings 5:9 ("my servants shall bring the timber down from Lebanon to the sea; I will put them as barges unto the place which you send to me — and I will unload them there, and you shall take them up"); 2 Chronicles 2:16 ("we will fell timber from Lebanon according to all your need, and bring it to you by barge by sea to Joppa — and you shall bring it up to Jerusalem").

Noun from σχίζω (G4977, to split — the verb of the heavens torn open at the baptism, Mark 1:10); a split piece of wood — shaft, dart, arrow. In the LXX Reference interlinear it belongs entirely to one scene: the three darts of Jonathan's covenant sign, by which David learned whether to stay or flee.

dart, arrow-shaft
split wood, splinter

Septuagint usage

8 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: 1 Samuel 20:20 (I will shoot three darts to the side, as though aiming at a mark — Jonathan's sign); 1 Samuel 20:22 (if I say to the lad, The dart is beyond you — go, for the LORD has sent you away); 1 Samuel 20:36 (he shot the dart beyond him); 1 Samuel 20:38 (Jonathan's lad gathered the darts and brought them to his master — and only the two knew).

(skhis-TOSS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verbal adjective — split, divided; of flax: combed, hackled (from σχίζω, to split — the verb of the torn heavens and the torn veil, Mark 1:10; 15:38). From the Egypt oracle's economic collapse: when the Nile fails, 'shame shall take the workers of combed flax, and the workers of fine linen' (Isaiah 19:9) — the famous linen industry idled with the fishermen and the dam-builders (19:5-10). Yet this oracle of unravelling ends in the canon's widest weave: an altar in Egypt, a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the benediction 'blessed be Egypt my people' (19:19-25) — the judged economy folded into the blessing of the nations (Genesis 12:3).

combed (of flax)
split, divided

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 19:9 (and shame shall take the ones working the shredded flax, and the ones working the linen).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Neuter noun from σχοινίον (G4979, rope, cord); a measured allotment, a portion marked off by line — the deep word of Deuteronomy 32: Jacob is the Lord's own line-portion of inheritance; also David's measuring of Moab by cords, and the land as the line of Israel's inheritance.

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a measured allotment — land portioned by the surveyor's cord (from σχοινίον, rope, measuring-line). From Manasseh's inheritance: 'and the measured portion fell to Manasseh — the plain of the land of Gilead and Bashan, beyond the Jordan' (Joshua 17:5) — the chapter in which the daughters of Zelophehad claim and receive their cord of land among their father's brothers (17:3-4). Inheritance in Israel is cord-language: allotments 'fall' as the line is stretched, and the psalter takes the surveyor's idiom into doxology — 'the lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; indeed my inheritance is beautiful to me' (Psalm 16:6; Colossians 1:12).

measured allotment
cord-portion of land

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Joshua 17:5 (and the piece of measured out land fell to Manasseh — the plain of Labed of the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is on the other side of the Jordan).

Noun — an idler, man of leisure (from σχολάζω, to be at leisure — the verb Paul redeems for prayer at 1 Corinthians 7:5). Pharaoh's exegesis of worship: 'You are idle — idlers! Therefore you say, Let us go sacrifice to the LORD' (Exodus 5:17) — and the straw is cut off while the quota stands (5:7-8, 18). The taskmaster's hermeneutic reads all Godward desire as productivity-loss; the only cure for wanting to worship is more bricks. It is the world's oldest slander against the sabbath principle — rest and sacrifice look like theft to an economy that owns its people (Deuteronomy 5:14-15) — answered by the Lord of a different yoke: 'come to me... and I will give you rest' (Matthew 11:28-29).

idler
man of leisure

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 5:17 (and he said to them, You are idle, you are idlers; because of this you say, We should go, we should sacrifice to the LORD).

σωματοποιέω (sōmatopoieō)

(so-mah-to-pee-EH-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to build up the body, put flesh on, strengthen (σῶμα, body, + ποιέω, to make; the ABP interlinear prints the negated aorist οὐκ ἐσωματοποιήσατε as a single fused row at this slot). From the five-count indictment of the shepherds: 'the weak you have not strengthened, and the ill you have not built up in body, and the broken you have not bound, and the straying you have not turned back, and the lost you have not sought' (Ezekiel 34:4). The office existed to put flesh on thin sheep; instead the shepherds fed themselves (34:2-3, 8). So the Owner takes the crook in person — 'I myself will search for my sheep... I will bind up the broken and strengthen the weak' (34:11, 15-16) — and stands in Israel one day saying it: 'I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep' (John 10:11; Luke 15:4-5; Matthew 9:36).

to strengthen in body
to build up flesh

Septuagint usage

σωρήκ (sōrēk)

(so-RAKE)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Hebrew loanword — soreq, the choice red-grape vine; the ABP transliterates rather than translates (the slot sits beside σωρεύω by numbering only). The Song of the Vineyard's costliest detail: the beloved fenced, cleared, and planted his vineyard with 'a choice vine' — every input select — and it produced thorns; 'the vineyard of the LORD of Hosts is the house of Israel' (Isaiah 5:1-7). Jeremiah files the same indictment in translation: 'I planted you a fruit-bearing vine, entirely true — how were you turned into bitterness, the foreign vine?' (Jeremiah 2:21, the same Hebrew soreq). The failed choice vine stands until the metaphor is claimed in person: 'I am the true vine' (John 15:1) — fruit at last from the planting of the LORD.

choice vine
soreq (Hebrew loanword)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 5:2 (and I put a barrier around it, and built a palisade, and planted a grapevine, a choice vine; and I built a tower in the midst of it, and dug a wine press in it; and I waited for it to produce the grape, and it produced thorn-bushes).

G4992.1

σωφάρ (sōphar)

(so-FAR)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Hebrew loanword — shophar, the ram's-horn trumpet; the ABP transliterates it at the ark's ascent (the slot sits beside σωτήριον by numbering only). David's procession brings the ark up 'with a cheer and with the sound of the shophar' — the scene Psalm 47:5 sets to doctrine: 'God went up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.' The horn that shook Sinai (Exodus 19:16) now heralds enthronement on Zion, and the parallel account sounds the same pair (2 Samuel 6:15). The ascent-with-trumpet grammar waits for its antitype: He ascended (Ephesians 4:8-10), and His return is announced 'with the trumpet of God' (1 Thessalonians 4:16; 1 Corinthians 15:52).

ram's horn
shophar (Hebrew loanword)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 1 Chronicles 15:28 (and all Israel was leading the ark of the covenant of the LORD with a cheer, and with a sound of the ram's horn, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding out loud with stringed instruments and with lutes).
