Lesson 22 Amplified -- PHONEUO

 

PHONEUO

American: to be a murderer 

PHENO

American: to murder

Hebrew Aramaic: ratsach 

PHONEUS

American: a murderer 

ANTHROPOKTONOS

American: manslayer, murderer 

APOKTEINAI

American: to kill outright 

It grieves the translator that so many of our servicemen and war veterans were burdened by the word “kill” among the ten commands in the King James Bible and subsequently in the Revised Standard Version. He is thankful to Theos that newer translations correctly translate this word as “murder”. 

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

 Romans 13.8: Owe not even one man not even one thing, except agapan [unconditional love] for one another; for he agapesas the other has fulfilled The Law [Pentateuch, books of Moses, first five books of the Old Testament]. “Not moicheuseis [commit adultery]; not phoneuseis [murder];

EXODUS 20 16: “Not shall you ratsach [murder]!”

 Exodus 20.13: 

King James Bible: “Thou shalt not kill.”

Revised Standard Version: “You shall not kill.”

New American Standard Bible: “You shall not murder.”

New International Version: “You shall not murder.”

Luke 23.18: Now they screamed out en masse, saying, “Take away this Man [Jesus] but totally free Bar Abbas [“Son of Daddy”]!” (Which same [who] was thrown into confinement via some rebellion being caused to be in the city and for phonon [murder].)

John 8.33: They [the Judaeans?] answered Him, “We are sperma [descendants] of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. What do You mean by saying that? ‘You will be caused to be free.’” Jesus answered them, “Amen! Amen! I say to you that everyone doing hamartian [a miss of the mark, goal; offense, sin] is the slave of hamartias. Now a slave not remains in a household to the age; the Son of the house does remain to the age. If then the Son sets you free, you are really free. Yes, I know that you are sperma of Abraham, yet you seek to apokteinai Me because My logos has [finds] no place in you. I speak what I have seen and learned with My Father; you (accordingly) do what you have seen and learned with your father.” They answered Him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus says to them, “If you were truly children of Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham but [instead] now you seek to apokteinai Me, a Man Who has spoken the truth to you, which I heard at the side of Theos. This Abraham didn't do.” Accordingly, they said to Him, “We weren't born illegitimately, emergent from porneias. We have one Father; Theos!” Jesus said to them, “If Theos were your father, you would egapate Me for I went forth from Theos. I haven't come from Myself [of My own accord] but that One sent Me. Why do you misunderstand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to listen to My logon. You are emergent from your father the diabolou [leader to shame, devil, satyr] and you want to do the lusts of your father. That one WAS AN ANTHROPOKTONOS FROM THE BEGINNING and hasn't stood in the truth because the truth isn’t in him. When he speaks the lie, he speaks emergent from his own nature for he is a liar. He is the Father of Lies but because I speak the truth, you haven't pisteute [reliance upon, faith] into Me. Who (emergent from you) reproves Me concerning hamartias? If (then) I speak the truth, why don't you pisteuete into Me? He, being emergent from Theos, hears the rhemata of Theos. You don’t listen to Me since you aren't emergent from Theos.”
