Bible Question (short): diakonos vs synergos |
Question (full): I have been studying this verse. I have also been reading 1 Cor 3:9, both speaking to God's fellow workers. In my Key Word study Bible in 1 Thess 3:2 the word "diakonos" has been used. In eight other reference materials, Greek dictionaries, Vines, etc, the word "synergos" (and its variations) have been used more frequently. I am curious as to how you came to the determination to use the word that you did. I have also studied that both words have a very similiar meaning and the the context and verbage in both verses are carefully looked at because of the connection to "God's fellow worker" has to be addressed. I will greatly appreciate you insight into this. Thank you. |
