Lesson 50 Amplified – AGGELOS

 

AGGELOS -- AGGELOI

American singular: messenger, angel; plural: messengers, angels 

Hebrew Aramaic: MALAK 

We have many fanciful images of Theos’ aggeloi. In Koine Greek the word merely means messenger. We Christians know, in addition, that these messengers can be armed and dangerous. 

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

Galatians 3:19: Why then exists The Law? It was added because of the parabasis [going contrary to, violating], being instituted via aggeloi, resting in a go-between’s hand until the Sperma should come, upon Whom the epaggelian [announcement, proclamation, promise] epeggeltai [was announced, was proclaimed, was promised]. Now, the go-between [Moses] isn’t first but Theos is First. Is then The Law against the epaggelian of Theos? Let it not be caused to be! For if a law had been given that was able to make alive, indeed dikaiosune [equity, justification, rightness] would have been emergent from that law. Conversely, now the Graphe [Scripture, part of Old Testament] has subjected everyone under hamartian [missing the mark or goal, erring, offending, sinning] in order that the epagglia emergent from pistis [faith] might be given to those having pistis in Jesus, the Christou [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ]. 

1^st Corinthians 4.9: For I think that Theos sent us out (the apostolous) last (as doomed to death) because we were caused to be a theatron [spectacle, theater] to the kosmo [world, universe, cosmos], to aggeloi and to men. We are fools via the Christon, but you are wise in the Christo. 

Romans 8.37: Conversely, in these issues we overwhelmingly conquer via the One agapesas us. For I have been convinced that neither death nor life nor aggeloi nor commencement nor powers nor present forces nor impending forces nor height nor depth [profundity] nor any other creation will be able to separate us from the agapes of Theos in our Kurio Jesus, the Christo. 

Luke 1.26: Now in the sixth month, the aggelos Gabriel was sent forth (by Theos) into a city of Galilee (which is named Nazareth) to a maiden [virgin] having been engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, emergent from the house of David. And the name of the maiden was Mariam [in Greek; “Maryam” in Hebrew; “Mary” in American]. And entering to her, the aggelos said, “Cheers, to you, the one charitoo [receiving graciousness]! The Kurios is amidst you. Eulogemene [spoken well of, praised, blessed] are you in gunaichsin [women]!” And seeing that she was totally disturbed over his logo [word] and that she was thoroughly analyzing what possible sort of greeting this might be, the aggelos said to her, “Not fear, Maryam, for you have found charin [graciousness] from beside Theos and LO! you will conceive in your stomach [womb] and bear a son and you will call his name Jesus. The same will be megas [big, large, huge, great] and will be called the Son of the Highest. And the Kurios Theos will give to Him the throne of His forefather David and He will rule over the house of Jacob to the ages and there won’t be an end to His royalty.” And Mary said to the aggelos, “How will this be since I not know a man?” And beginning to speak, the aggelos said to her, “The Hagios Pneuma will come over you and the dunamis [force, power] of the Highest will overshadow you and consequently, that Being born emergent from you will be called the Hagion Son of Theos. And LO! your relative Elizabeth and in her senility, she has conceived a son, and this is the sixth month with her (the one called sterile) because not will be called impossible any rhema [utterance] from beside Theos.” And Mary said, “LO! the slave of the Kuriou! May it be (caused to be) to me down to your rhema.” And the aggelos went off [away] from her.

Luke 7.24 Now, the aggelon [messengers] of John Bar Zekaryahuw going away, He began to speak toward the throngs concerning John. “What did you go forth into the desolate area to scrutinize? a reed waving under the force of the wind? Conversely, what did you go forth into the desolate area to see? a man dressed in soft clothing? LO! those in glorious clothing and born in luxury are in palaces. Conversely, what did you go forth into the desolate area to see? a propheten [before teller, prophet]! Yes, indeed I say to you, also superabundantly more than a prophetou! This man is he concerning whom it has been written: ‘LO! I send forth My aggelon [messenger], before Your face, who will thoroughly prepare the road in front of You.’” 

MALACHI 3.1 “LO! I AM sending forth a malak [aggelos] and he will turn [plow] a road before Me. And suddenly shall come to His large place [temple, body] the Sovereign Whom you are seeking, even the Malak of the Blood Covenant in Whom you are pleased. LO! He comes!” says YHWH of the hordes of Heaven. 

Luke 12.6: Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria [Roman coins] and not one emergent from them is having been forgotten before the face of Theos. Conversely, even the hairs of your head have been counted. Accordingly, not be frightened for you are of greater worth than many flocks of sparrows. Now, I say to you, all (whoever) covenant in Me before men, also the son of Man will covenant in them before the aggelon of Theos. But the one rejecting Me before the face of men, will be utterly rejected before the face of the aggelon of Theos. And everyone who speaks a logon into [against] the Son of Man, it aphethesetai [will be sent forth, will be forsaken, will be forgiven] him but those blasphemesanti [speaking irreverently, profanely; blaspheming] into the Hagios Pneuma, not aphethesetai.
