peer agreement (net): +1tamAmiye mellat-hA/ melliyat-hA Explanation: EbArate 'panta ta ethne' dar enjil be maniye 'tamAmiye mellat-hA' yA 'tamAmiye ghomiyat-hA/melliyat-hA' 1- It is a Greek phrase meaning "all the nations" which has been repeated in the Old Testament (Bible). In the Old Testament, the phrase 'panta ta ethne' occurs some 100 times and always carries the meaning of people groups outside of Israel. http://64.233.179.104/search?q=cache:GOFtHEbE98oJ:www.elca.o... 2- classes, tribes, lineages, and peoples of the earth http://64.233.179.104/search?q=cache:ZJLMy4BcKvUJ:www.ubs.ac... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs 17 mins (2005-05-11 04:37:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As the text clearly states \"into every cultural expression of humanity (panta ta ethne)\", so the cultural aspect of the phrase is emphasized, so: \'ghomiyat-hA\', \'melliyat-hA\' or the best as \'aghvAme bashari\'. Please note that it is believed the exact phrase in Bible meant \"all nations except Jews\": Ethnos, Greek for \"nation\" and equivalent to the Latin \"gens\", is the root of such words as \"ethnography\" and \"ethnicity.\" Its plural, \"ethne\", refers in the Old and New Testaments to the \"nations\" other than the Jews--to the gentes or Gentiles, addressed by Paul as the inheritors of a universal, increasingly trans-ethnic church. http://social.chass.ncsu.edu/jouvert/v3i12/rhoad.htm |
