* This word means father.
|
||
|
|
* In the Greek New Testament, it is only used when someone is speaking about God the Father.
|
||
|
|
* In ancient times, this word was used when someone loved their father very much and trusted him
|
||
|
|
* Sometimes, this word is not translated. Instead, it is written as “abba” because it is near another word translated as father (see: G3962)
