## Definition: ##
|
|
|
|
A "word" refers to something that someone has said.
|
|
|
|
* An example of this would be when the angel told Zechariah, "You did not believe my words," which means, "You did not believe what I said."
|
|
* This term almost always refers to an entire message, not just one word.
|
|
* Sometimes "word" refers to speech in general, such as "powerful in word and deed" which means "powerful in speech and behavior."
|
|
* Often in the Bible "the word" refers to everything God has said or commanded, as in "the word of God" or "the word of truth."
|
|
* A very special use of this term is when Jesus is called "the Word." For these last two meanings, see [word of God](../kt/wordofgod.md)
