DOGMA
American, lower case: a
law, a statute, a decree
Hebrew Aramaic: torah
American, capitalized: Decalogue
or Pentateuch
Hebrew Aramaic: Torah
The words The Law in the New Blood Covenant mean either the Decalogue (Ten Commands; [sic] Commandments) or the Pentateuch (first five books of the Old Blood Covenant or the Books of Moses).
Almost Greek: (Words in italics are translator’s additions)
Colossians 2.8: Watch out lest you shall be seducing anyone
via philosophy [sophistry] and empty delusion down to the traditions of
men, down to the principles of the kosmou [universe, world, cosmos] and not
down to the Christon for in Him resides all the repletion of somatikos Theotetos
[bodily Deity]. You are in Him (having been made replete) Who is the
Head of all rank and authority. In Him you were also circumcised with a not-made-by-hands
circumcision in the divestment of the somatos [body] of hamartion [missing
the mark or goal; erring, offending, sinning] of the flesh. In the
circumcision of the Christou, you were
co-buried with Him in baptismati [immersion, submersion, baptism], in
Whom you also were roused from death via pisteos [reliance, faith] of
the energeias [activities, efficiencies] of Theos awakening Him emergent
from dead. You, being dead in offenses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He
[Father] reanimated you with Him [Jesus], chapisamenos
[having granted as a favor, having forgiven] you all the
offenses, blotting out the transcribed-down-to-us in dogma which were
covertly contrary to us. Father has
lifted it emergent from the midst of us, nailing
it to the stake [cross]. Having totally stripped the ranks and the
authorities, He [Father] made a public display of them, having triumphed
over them in Him [Jesus].
Luke 2: Now in those days, it was caused to be that a dogma was issued from beside Caesar Augustus that all of the people of the land [Roman Empire] were to be enrolled [registered].
