⦁ At least one insight on whether the scope and range of meaning that term has in the original language helps us better appreciate what the original author wrote
Heres an example:
Bulletpoints below simply copied and pasted from online Bible tool and my analysis added next to ‘My Comment’.
⦁ euaggelion: good news
⦁ Original Word: εὐαγγέλιον, ου, τό
⦁ Part of Speech: Noun, Neuter
⦁ Transliteration: euaggelion
⦁ Phonetic Spelling: (yoo-ang-ghel’-ee-on)
⦁ Definition: good news
⦁ Usage: the good news of the coming of the Messiah, the gospel; the gen. after it expresses sometimes the giver (God), sometimes the subject (the Messiah, etc.), sometimes the human transmitter (an apostle).
My Comment: I found it interesting that in the ‘Concordance’ section the term ‘gospel’ typically accompanies other words or phrases. So, gospel ‘of God’, ‘of the kingdom’, ‘of Jesus’, ‘of ‘Jesus Christ’. It makes me wonder why those terms are associated with the word so much and whether there is anything relevant from the Old Testament texts which might explain these associations. I also appreciated that the Thayer’s Greek Lexicon gave three primary meanings for the word ‘gospel’ with bold print and numbers to help me find them:
⦁ a reward for good tidings
⦁ good tidings
⦁ the glad tidings of the kingdom of God soon to be set up, and subsequently also of Jesus, the Messiah, the founder of this kingdom
⦁ the narrative of the sayings, deeds, and death of Jesus Christ
