Romans 1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
English “for” was translated from Greek preposition 5228 huper meaning over as grammatical subjects are over their grammatical objects.
English “you” and “your” were translated from Greek pronoun 5216 humo. The apostle Paul is writing directly to God’s “election” as documented in prior posts.
English “spoken” was translated from Greek verb 2605 katangello from a compound of Greek primary preposition 2596 kata being down as grammatical objects are down from their grammatical subject and Greek noun 32 angelos which was correctly translated 179 times into English “angel”. In this context the grammatical subject is the angel of Jesus Christ promulgating His own “election”.
English “world” was translated from Greek noun 2889 kosmos being the earth and it’s inhabitants. English “world” in the new testament has been translated from Greek noun 165 aion being an earth age, Greek noun 1093 ge being earth, Greek noun 2889 kosmos being the earth and it’s inhabitants, Greek verb 3195 mello being God’s plan for the future when God is the grammatical subject. Greek verb 3195 mello was translated into “the world to come”. English “world” in the new testament was also translated from Greek noun 3625 oikoumene which encompasses the inhabitants of earthly kingdoms as found in Luke 2:1, Luke 4:5, Acts 11:28, Acts 17:6, Acts 19:27, Acts 24:5, Revelation 12:9 and Revelation 16:14. Greek noun 3625 oikoumene also encompasses the inhabitants of God’s kingdom, pursuant to God’s will and future process “That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him”. Greek noun 3625 oikoumene applies to God’s kingdom of heaven in Matthew 24:14, Acts 17:31, Romans 10:18, Hebrews 1:6, Hebrews 2:5 and Revelation 3:10. It is not possible to understand the bible without understanding the five distinct Greek words that were translated into English “world”.
