(adjective, Job 37:20; Psalm 18:9 Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for τηλαυγός, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words related to light and glory, such as: Usage: The word τηλαυγός is not directly used in the New Testament of the Berean Standard Bible. However, it is a descriptive term that can be applied to concepts of divine light or glory that are evident and impactful from afar. Context: The Greek term τηλαυγός, though not appearing in the New Testament text, encapsulates the concept of divine illumination and glory that transcends distance. In biblical theology, light is often associated with God's presence, truth, and revelation. The imagery of light shining from afar can be seen in various scriptural passages that describe God's glory and the revelation of His truth to humanity. For instance, the light of Christ is described as a beacon to the nations, drawing people from all corners of the earth to the truth of the Gospel. This concept is echoed in passages such as Isaiah 60:1-3, where the glory of the Lord rises upon His people, attracting nations to His light. The term τηλαυγός, therefore, serves as a metaphor for the pervasive and far-reaching impact of God's revelation and the transformative power of His presence. |
