More Greek resources


Here are the expanded Greek definitions of two of the words Pastor Allen cited in his message in Ephesians 5:

porneia
1. illicit sexual intercourse
a. adultery, fornication, homosexuality, lesbianism, intercourse with animals etc.
b. sexual intercourse with close relatives; Lev. 18
c. sexual intercourse with a divorced man or woman; Mk. 10:11,
2. metaph. the worship of idols
a. of the defilement of idolatry, as incurred by eating the sacrifices offered to idols

akatharsia

1. uncleanness
a. physical
b. in a moral sense: the impurity of lustful, luxurious, profligate living
1. of impure motives

In a previous post (August 2) I connected you to a free online interlinear New Testament. Here is an additional resource, an online Greek lexicon (where I obtained the definitions above).
