Lesson 17 Amplified -- HAGIOS

 

HAGIOS

American singular: holy, sacred, consecrated, saint

French: saint

Hebrew Aramaic: qadowsh/qadosh, qodesh 

HAGIOI

American plural: holies, sacred or consecrated ones, saints 

The American language has adopted the French word “saint” for this Koine Greek noun. Anyone who has set himself/herself apart to be YHWH’s child is a saint. 

Almost Greek: [Words in italics are translator’s additions.] 

Deuteronomy 33.2: And he [Moses] said, “YHWH came from Sinai and dawned on them from Seir. He shone forth from Mount Paran and He came from the midst of a myriad of qodesh.” 

Psalms 106.16: And they were jealous of Moses in the camp and of Aaron the qadowsh/qadosh one of YHWH, ... 

Daniel 8.13: Then I heard a certain qodesh one speaking, and said another qadowsh/qadosh one to that one who before spoke, ... 

1st Thessalonians 1.5: Our euaggelion [good news, gospel, evangel] came to you not only in logos [word] but also in dunamis [force, power] and in the Hagios [Holy, Sacred, Consecrated] Pneuma [Breath, Spirit] and in much assurance. 

1^st Corinthians: Paul (a called apostolos [delegate, ambassador, apostle] of Jesus the Christou via the thelematos [determination, choice, decision, decree] of Theos) and Sosthenes [“Safe in Strength”; chief of the synagogue at Corinth], to the ekklesia [assembly, church] of Theos in Corinth; those egiasmenois [having been made hagios] in Jesus the Christo; invited hagiois with all of those invoking the name [authority] of our Kuriou Jesus the Christou, both their Lord and ours, in every place:

 

1^st Corinthians 6: Dares anyone of you (having a matter against another of you) to be judged before the adikeo [unjust] and not before the hagion? Don't you know that the hagioi will judge the kosmon [universe, world, cosmos]? And if the kosmos is judged by you, are you unworthy of small judgments? Don’t you know that we will judge aggeloi [messengers, angels]? (I’m not speaking of this present life.) If in fact (then) you have judgments in this life, do you seat as judges those being least esteemed in the ekklesia? “Shame on you,”

 

1^st Corinthians 14.31: For you can all propheteuein [before-tell, speak under inspiration, prophesy] (down one by one) so all may learn and all may be parakalontai [invited, exhorted]. And the pneumata of propheton [before-tellers, prophets] are obedient to prophetais [inspired speech, prophesy] for Theos isn’t a God of instability; conversely, a God of peace. And so be it (in that manner) in all the ekklesiais of the hagion.

 

2^nd Corinthians 13.11: Finally, brothers, rejoice! Thoroughly complete [perfect] yourselves. Parakaleisthe [invite, exhort] yourselves! Be of one mind! Be at peace and the Theos of agapes and of peace will be with you. Hug one another in a hagio kiss. All the hagioi here hug you. 

Romans 8.26: In the same way, the Hagios Pneuma also joins in to help overcome our feebleness. For we not precisely know what we make proseuxometha [prayers] as is necessary; conversely, the Hagios Pneuma (Himself) intercedes on our behalf with ineffable sighs. But He searching the hearts knows the bent [inclination] of the Hagios Pneuma because He entreats over hagion down to the decision of Theos. 

Colossians 3:12: Accordingly, dress yourself in the manner of the chosen of Theos: hagioi and egapemenoi [unconditionally loved], splen [spleen, guts, bowels, sympathy] of pity, chrestoteta [usefulness], humility, gentleness, forbearance; enduring one another and forgiving yourselves. In case anyone (toward any) has a complaint, just as (in fact) the Christos forgave you, so also should you. Above all these things put on agapen which is the perfect bond. Let the peace of Theos rule in your hearts (to which indeed you were called in one somati [body]) and be eucharistoi [grateful, thankful]. 

1^st Peter 1.13: Therefore, tightening anew the belt of your mind (being sober), completely elpisate [expect, hope] upon the charin [graciousness] being brought to you in the revelation of Jesus the Christou. As children of attentive hearkening, not conform yourselves to your former (in your ignorance) lusts but down to the Hagion One calling you. Also, be (caused to be) hagioi in all your behavior because it has been written: You be hagioi because I AM hagios!”
