STRONGS NT 3838: παντελής

παντελής, παντελές (πᾶς and τέλος), all-complete, perfect (Aeschylus, Sophocles, Plato, Diodorus, Plutarch, others; 3Macc. 7:16); εἰς τό παντελές (properly, unto completeness (Winers Grammar, § 51, 1 c.)) completely, perfectly, utterly: Luke 13:11; Hebrews 7:25 (Philo leg. ad Gaium 21; Josephus, Antiquities 1, 18, 5; 3, 11, 3 and 12, 1; 6, 2, 3; 7, 13, 3; Aelian v. h. 7, 2; n. a. 17, 27).

Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from πᾶς (pas, meaning "all" or "every") and τέλος (telos, meaning "end" or "completion").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for παντελής, the concept of completeness or perfection can be found in Hebrew words such as תָּמִים (tamiym, Strong's 8549), meaning "complete" or "blameless," and שָׁלֵם (shalem, Strong's 8003), meaning "whole" or "complete." These terms similarly convey the idea of wholeness and perfection in the context of spiritual and moral integrity.

Usage: The term παντελής is used in the New Testament to convey the idea of something being complete or perfect, often in the context of salvation or the work of Christ.

Context: • The Greek word παντελής appears in the New Testament to emphasize the completeness or perfection of an action or state. It is used to describe the totality and sufficiency of Christ's work and the salvation He offers.
• In Hebrews 7:25, the term is used to describe the ability of Christ to save completely: "Therefore He is able to save completely those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to intercede for them" (BSB). This verse highlights the perfect and all-encompassing nature of Christ's intercession and salvation.
• The use of παντελής underscores the theological concept that Christ's sacrifice and ongoing intercession are fully sufficient for the redemption of believers, leaving nothing lacking in the provision of salvation.
• The term also reflects the idea of spiritual maturity and completeness in the believer's life, as they are made perfect through Christ's work.
