Subject: Why is love philandros not agapao? |
Bible Note: Immanuelsown I completely agree with you about this! What Searcher was asking about though was why "philandros" and not "agapao"? Not making an arugment with you at all as I agree whole heartedly with what you are saying. First let me apologize to you and to Searcher and to everyone else too. I think I said before I don't know everything and that I am a worthless son. This time I flubbed it major league, I didn't stop to look up every bit of it. The word "philandros" only appears once in the NT in this passage and means specifically wifely love for a husband. The word for women to love their children is "philoteknos" and only appears once in the NT this passage and means specifically love for your children. I completely flubbed applying the "agapaos" and "phileo" concept to this passage, I was dead wrong. Sorry for the mix up, next time I will look it all up first like I usually do before I post anything. blessings abound, bowler |
