Why Expository Dictionary, Lexicon?
Why Expository Dictionary, Lexicon?

Why use an expository dictionary or lexicon when studying words?  Why not just a dictionary?

 

Observe.  The following is from a topic we covered recently.    

 

Katastole

a lowering, letting down a garment let down, dress, attire

Lexicons - New Testament Greek Lexicon - New Testament Greek Lexicon - King James Version - Katastole


This is from an expository dictionary:

<4,,2689,katastole> 

connected with katastello, "to send or let down, to lower" (kata, "down," stello, "to send"), was primarily a garment let down; hence, "dress, attire," in general (cp. stole, a loose outer garment worn by kings and persons of rank, Eng., "stole"); 1 Tim. 2:9, "apparel." See CLOTHING.


The following is obviously from a lexicon:

When studying the Bible it depends on whether you want to know that basketball is a team sport, a ball game, or you want to know how to play!
