-## Overview
+# unfoldingWord® Translation Words
 
-translationWords provides translators with clear, concise definitions and translation suggestions for every important word in the Bible.  This is the source repository for all of the English translationWords.
+This is the repository for the [unfoldingWord® Translation Words (UTW)](https://www.unfoldingword.org/utw) resource.
 
-translationWords were developed by the [Door43 World Missions Community](https://door43.org) in conjunction with [Wycliffe Associates](http://www.wycliffeassociates.org/).  The entire project is made
-available under a [Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0), see the [LICENSE](https://git.door43.org/Door43/en-tw/src/master/LICENSE.md) file for more information.
+## Description
 
-Please use the [issue queue](https://git.door43.org/Door43/en-tw/issues) to provide feedback or suggestions for improvement.
+UTW is a basic Bible dictionary that is based on the English vocabulary of the ULT. We intend that it will be translated into other Gateway Languages, each of which will be based on the vocabulary of the GLT in that language. Its purpose is to provide translators with concise definitions of important or difficult biblical concepts, along with translation suggestions for those concepts, to help them make sound translation decisions.
 
-## Resources
+While based on English vocabulary, UTW will seek to organize its definitions by concept, in order to allow GL translators to more easily sort and combine the concepts into the categories and vocabulary of their own Gateway Languages. This means that an English word with multiple sentences will yield one UTW article for each sense. GL translators can then take these articles and arrange them under the appropriate head word or words of their own language.
 
-If you want to download English translationWords to use, go here: https://unfoldingword.org/en/?resource=translation-words.  tW is also included in [tS](http://ufw.io/ts) and [tC](http://ufw.io/tc).
+## Categories
 
+In order to not burden the translator unneccessarily with definitions of routine vocabulary, UTW articles will be limited to the following categories of key or difficult concepts. Concepts that qualify for a UTW article are:
 
+1. Theologically freighted. They carry a lot of theological weight and meaning, so it is important to get them right and be consistent in using them. So even if they aren’t difficult (although they usually are), they are important. Examples: righteousness, forgiveness, sin, grace, love.
+2. Unusual or obscure. Examples: abomination, eunuch, iniquity, propitiation, chariot.
+3. Have a modern usage but a different ancient/biblical usage. Examples: altar, priest, bless, curse, clean, unclean, church.
+4. Unique to the Bible. Examples: Ark, gentile, psalm, tabernacle.
+5. Transliterated. Examples: shekel, ephah, amen, apostle, angel.
+6. Ambiguous. That is, concepts are lumped together into one English or GL word so that it is unclear which concept is being accessed in any certain context of the ULT or GLT. This is the category that the GL team will need to do the most work in to adjust to the GL. Examples: call, fear, age, great.
 
-## Historical
+## UTW differentiated from UTN, UGL, and UHAL
 
-If you would like to see the original translationWords pages in DokuWiki, you may visit https://dw.door43.org/en/obe/home.
+It is important to note that UTW is only one component in a set of translation tools and resources. It is not intended to cover everything, but only the concepts as described above. It is also important to note that UTW is not based on Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek and does not provide definitions of terms from those languages. The unfoldingWord® Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon (UHAL) and the unfoldingWord® Greek Lexicon (UGL) will do that.
+
+The two “front-line” checking tools based on UTW and UTN are also complementary and are most useful for the translator when they remain distinct. For that reason, both resources are limited to their own domains. UTW is limited to the categories of key and difficult concepts, and UTN is limited to the categories of difficulties specified for it (figures of speech, grammar, etc.).
+
+The value of UTW for translators is to provide definitions for general concepts that they will find difficult to translate. A primary differentiator between UTW and UTN is that UTN addresses individual, verse-specific difficulties. It speaks to the exact problem in the exact context, many of which may only occur once in the Bible. For example, a UTN metaphor check is backstopped by the general UTA article on metaphor, but the specific note explains the specific metaphor that may be unique to that verse and occur nowhere else. The tool based on UTW, on the other hand, addresses concepts that recur constantly throughout the Bible, so the help that it gives is much more general, and one article may apply dozens of times, even in the same book. The strength of checking with this tool is that it allows translators to see each instance of a recurring concept in its context, but gathered into one place where the translation of each one can be compared side-by-side for appropriateness and consistency.

+## Improving the tWs
+
+Please use the [issue queue](https://git.door43.org/unfoldingWord/en_tw/issues) to provide feedback or suggestions for improvement.
+
+If you want to make your suggested changes then you may use the online editor to do so. See the [protected branch workflow](https://forum.ccbt.bible/t/protected-branch-workflow/76) document for step by step instructions.
+
+## Structure
+
+The tWs are organized into three sub directories under `bible`.
+
+* The subdirectory `kt` contains “key terms” which we consider to be of special importance in the Bible.
+* The subdirectory `other` contains terms which require explanation but are of less importance than the “key terms.”
+* The subdirectory `names` contains proper names of people and places in the Bible.
+
+## GL Translators

+# abomination, abominable
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “abomination” is used to refer to something that causes disgust or extreme dislike.
+
+* The Egyptians considered the Hebrew people to be an “abomination.” This means that the Egyptians disliked the Hebrews and didn’t want to associate with them or be near them.
+* Some of the things that the Bible calls “an abomination to Yahweh” include lying, pride, sacrificing humans, worship of idols, murder, and sexual sins such as adultery and homosexual acts.
+* In teaching his disciples about the end times, Jesus referred to a prophecy by the prophet Daniel about an “abomination of desolation” that would be set up as a rebellion against God, defiling his place of worship.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* The term “abomination” could also be translated by “something God hates” or “something disgusting” or “disgusting practice” or “very evil action.”
+* Depending on the context, ways to translate the phrase “is an abomination to” could include “is greatly hated by” or “is disgusting to” or “is totally unacceptable to” or “causes deep disgust.”
+* The phrase “abomination of desolation” could be translated as “defiling object that causes people to be greatly harmed” or “disgusting thing that causes great sorrow.”

+# adoption, adopt, adopted
+
+## Definition:
+
+The terms “adopt” and “adoption” refer to the process of someone legally becoming the child of people who are not his biological parents.
+
+* The Bible uses “adoption” and “adopt” in a figurative way to describe how God causes people to be part of his family, making them his spiritual sons and daughters.
+* As adopted children, God makes believers to be co-heirs with Jesus Christ, giving them all of the privileges of sons and daughters of God.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* This term could be translated with a term that the language of translation uses to describe this special parent-child relationship. Make sure it is understood that this has a figurative or spiritual meaning.
+* The phrase “experience adoption as sons” could be translated as “be adopted by God as his children” or “become God’s (spiritual) children.”
+* To “wait for the adoption of sons” could be translated as “look forward to becoming God’s children” or “wait expectantly for God to receive as children.”
+* The phrase “adopt them” could be translated as “receive them as his own children” or “make them his own (spiritual) children.”

+# adultery, adulterous, adulterer, adulteress
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “adultery” refers to a sin that occurs when a married person has sexual relations with someone who is not that person’s spouse. Both of them are guilty of adultery. The term “adulterous” describes this kind of behavior or any person who commits this sin.
+
+* The term “adulterer” refers generally to any person who commits adultery.
+* Sometimes the term “adulteress” is used to specify that it was a woman who committed adultery.
+* Adultery breaks the promises that a husband and wife made to each other in their covenant of marriage.
+* God commanded the Israelites to not commit adultery.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* If the target language does not have one word that means “adultery,” this term could be translated with a phrase such as “having sexual relations with someone else’s wife” or “being intimate with another person’s spouse.”
+* Some languages may have an indirect way of talking about adultery, such as “sleeping with someone else’s spouse” or “being unfaithful to one’s wife.” (See: [euphemism](rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-euphemism))

+An altar was a raised structure on which the Israelites burned animals and grains as offerings to God.
+
+* During Bible times, simple altars were often made by forming a mound of packed-down dirt or by carefully placing large stones to form a stable pile.
+* Some special box-shaped altars were made of wood overlaid with metals such as gold, brass, or bronze.

+# amen, truly
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “amen” is a word used to emphasize or call attention to what a person has said. It is often used at the end of a prayer. Sometimes it is translated as “truly.”
+
+* When used at the end of a prayer, “amen” communicates agreement with the prayer or expresses a desire that the prayer be fulfilled.
+* In his teaching, Jesus used “amen” to emphasize the truth of what he said. He often followed that by “and I say to you” to introduce another teaching that related to the previous teaching.
+* When Jesus uses “amen” this way, some English versions (and the ULT) translate this as “verily” or “truly.”
+* Another word meaning “truly” is sometimes translated as “surely” or “certainly” and is also used to emphasize what the speaker is saying.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Consider whether the target language has a special word or phrase that is used to emphasize something that has been said.
+* When used at the end of a prayer or to confirm something, “amen” could be translated as “let it be so” or “may this happen” or “that is true.”
+* When Jesus says, “truly I tell you,” this could also be translated as “Yes, I tell you sincerely” or “That is true, and I also tell you.”
+* The phrase “truly, truly I tell you” could be translated as “I tell you this very sincerely” or “I tell you this very earnestly” or “what I am telling you is true.”

+# angel, archangel
+
+## Definition:
+
+An angel is a powerful spirit being whom God created. Angels exist to serve God by doing whatever he tells them to do. The term “archangel” refers to the angel who rules or leads all the other angels.
+
+* The word “angel” literally means “messenger.”
+* The term “archangel” literally means “chief messenger.” The only angel referred to in the Bible as an “archangel” is Michael.
+* In the Bible, angels gave messages to people from God. These messages included instructions about what God wanted the people to do.
+* Angels also told people about events that were going to happen in the future or events that had already happened.
+* Angels have God’s authority as his representatives and sometimes in the Bible they spoke as if God himself was speaking.
+* Other ways that angels serve God are by protecting and strengthening people.
+* A special phrase, “angel of Yahweh,” has more than one possible meaning: (1) It may mean “angel who represents Yahweh” or “messenger who serves Yahweh.” (2) It may refer to Yahweh himself, who looked like an angel as he talked to a person. Either one of these meanings would explain the angel’s use of “I” as if Yahweh himself was talking.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Ways to translate “angel” could include “messenger from God” or “God’s heavenly servant” or “God’s spirit messenger.”
+* The term “archangel” could be translated as “chief angel” or “head ruling angel” or “leader of the angels.”
+* Also consider how these terms are translated in a national language or another local language.
+* The phrase “angel of Yahweh” should be translated using the words for “angel” and “Yahweh.” This will allow for different interpretations of that phrase. Possible translations could include “angel from Yahweh” or “angel sent by Yahweh” or “Yahweh, who looked like an angel.”

Often this was a [Symbolic Action](rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction), representing God empowering that person with the Holy Spirit for special service to him.
+
+* In the Old Testament, priests, kings, and prophets were anointed with oil to set them apart for special service to God. 
+* Objects such as altars or the tabernacle were also anointed with oil to show that they were to be used to worship and glorify God.
+* In the New Testament, sick people were anointed with oil for their healing.
+* Sometimes the oil was mixed with spices, giving it a sweet, perfumed smell.
+* The New Testament records two times that Jesus was anointed with perfumed oil by a woman, as an act of worship. 
+* People prepared dead bodies for burial by anointing them with perfumed oils and spices.
+* In the New Testament, receiving the Holy Spirit is described as anointing.
+* The titles “Messiah” (Hebrew) and “Christ” (Greek) mean “the Anointed (One).”
+* Jesus the Messiah is the one who was chosen and anointed as a Prophet, High Priest, and King.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Depending on the context, the term “anoint” could be translated as “pour/put oil on” or “consecrate by pouring oil on” or “consecrate” or “appoint.”
+* Depending on the context, to “be anointed” could be translated as “be consecrated with oil” or “be appointed” or “be consecrated” or “be given the Holy Spirit.”
+* A phrase like “the anointed priest,” could be translated as “the priest who was consecrated with oil” or “the priest who was set apart by the pouring on of oil.”

+
+The term “antichrist” refers to a person or teaching that is against Jesus Christ and his work. There are many antichrists in the world.
+
+* The apostle John tells us that a person is the antichrist if he deceives people by saying that Jesus is not the Messiah or if he denies that Jesus is both God and human.
+* The Bible also teaches that there is a general spirit of antichrist in the world that opposes Jesus’ work.
+* The beast in chapter 13 of the New Testament book of Revelation is often identified as the ultimate antichrist. This person or being will attempt to destroy God’s people, but he will be defeated by Jesus.
+* The apostle Paul refers to this person as “the man of lawlessness” (2 Thess 2:3) and to the general spirit of antichrist in the world as “the secret power of lawlessness” (2 Thess 2:7).
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Other ways to translate this term could include a word or phrase that means “Christ-opposer” or “enemy of Christ” or “person who is against Christ.”
+* The phrase “spirit of the antichrist” could also be translated as “spirit that is against Christ” or “attitude of spreading lies about Christ” or “spirit that teaches lies about Christ.”

+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “ark” literally refers to a rectangular wooden box that is made to hold or protect something. An ark can be large or small, depending on what it is being used for.
+
+* In the English Bible, the word “ark” is first used to refer to the very large, rectangular, wooden boat that Noah built to escape the worldwide flood. The ark had a flat bottom, a roof, and walls.
+* Ways to translate this term could include “very large boat” or “barge” or “cargo ship” or “large, box-shaped boat.”
+* The Hebrew word that is used to refer to this huge boat is the same word used for the basket or box that held baby Moses when his mother put him in the Nile River to hide him. In that case it is usually translated as “basket.”
+* In the phrase “ark of the covenant,” a different Hebrew word is used for “ark.” This could be translated as “box” or “chest” or “container.”
+* When choosing a term to translate “ark,” it is important in each context to consider what size it is and what it is being used for.

+* In Old Testament times, God allowed temporary atonement to be made for the sins of the Israelites by the offering of a blood sacrifice, which involved killing an animal.
+* As recorded in the New Testament, Christ’s death on the cross is the only true and permanent atonement for sin.
+* When Jesus died, he took the punishment that people deserve because of their sin. He paid the atonement price with his sacrificial death.
+

+# atonement lid
+
+## Definition:
+
+The “atonement lid” was a slab of gold that was used to cover the top of the ark of the covenant. In many English translations, it is also referred to as an “atonement cover.”
+
+* The atonement lid was about 115 centimeters in length and 70 centimeters in width.
+* Above the atonement lid were two gold cherubim with their wings touching.
+* Yahweh said that he would meet with the Israelites above the atonement lid, under the outstretched wings of the cherubim. Only the high priest was permitted to meet with Yahweh in this way, as the representative of the people.
+* Sometimes this atonement lid has been referred to as a “mercy seat” because it communicates God’s mercy in coming down to redeem sinful human beings.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Other ways to translate this term could include “ark covering where God promises to redeem” or “place where God atones” or “lid of ark where God forgives and restores.”
+* Can also mean “place of propitiation.”
+* Compare this term with how you translated “atonement,” “propitiation,” and “redemption.”

+
+### 2. believe in
+

+
+### 3. believer
+
+In the Bible, the term “believer” refers to someone who believes in and relies on Jesus Christ as Savior.

+
+*   The term “beloved” literally means “loved (one)” or “(who is) loved.”
+*   God refers to Jesus as his “beloved Son.”
+*   In their letters to Christian churches, the apostles frequently address their fellow believers as “beloved.”

+# Christ, Messiah
+
+## Facts:
+
+The terms “Messiah” and “Christ” mean “Anointed One” and refer to Jesus, God’s Son.
+
+* Both “Messiah” and “Christ” are used in the New Testament to refer to God’s Son, whom God the Father appointed to rule as king over his people, and to save them from sin and death.
+* In the Old Testament, the prophets wrote prophecies about the Messiah hundreds of years before he came to earth.
+* Often a word meaning “anointed (one)” is used in the Old Testament to refer to the Messiah who would come.
+* Jesus fulfilled many of these prophecies and did many miraculous works that proves he is the Messiah; the rest of these prophecies will be fulfilled when he returns.
+* The word “Christ” is often used as a title, as in “the Christ” and “Christ Jesus.”
+* “Christ” also came to be used as part of his name, as in “Jesus Christ.”
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* This term could be translated using its meaning, “the Anointed One” or “God’s Anointed Savior.”
+* Many languages use a transliterated word that looks or sounds like “Christ” or “Messiah.” (See: [How to Translate Unknowns](rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown))
+* The transliterated word could be followed by the definition of the term as in, “Christ, the Anointed One.”
+* Be consistent in how this is translated throughout the Bible so that it is clear that the same term is being referred to.
+* Make sure the translations of “Messiah” and “Christ” work well in contexts where both terms occur in the same verse (such as John 1:41).

+# Christian
+
+## Definition:
+
+Some time after Jesus went back to heaven, people made up the name “Christian” which means “follower of Christ.”
+
+* It was in the city of Antioch where Jesus’ followers were first called “Christians.”
+* A Christian is a person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God, and who trusts Jesus to save him from his sins.
+* In our modern times, often the term “Christian” is used for someone who identifies with the Christian religion, but who is not really following Jesus. This is not the meaning of “Christian” in the Bible.
+* Because the term “Christian” in the Bible always refers to someone who truly believes in Jesus, a Christian is also called a “believer.”
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* This term could be translated as “Christ-follower” or “follower of Christ” or perhaps something like, “Christ-person.”
+* Make sure that the translation of this term is translated differently than terms used for disciple or apostle.
+* Be careful to translate this term with a word that can refer to everyone who believes in Jesus, not just certain groups.
+* Also consider how this term is translated in a Bible translation in a local or national language. (See: [How to Translate Unknowns](rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown))

+# circumcise, circumcised, circumcision, uncircumcised, uncircumcision
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “circumcise” means to cut off the foreskin of a man or male child. A circumcision ceremony may be performed in connection with this.
+
+* God commanded Abraham to circumcise every male among his family and servants as a sign of God’s covenant with them.
+* God also commanded Abraham’s descendants to continue to do this for every baby boy born into their households.
+* The phrase, “circumcision of the heart” refers figuratively to the “cutting away” or removal of sin from a person.
+* In a spiritual sense, “the circumcised” refers to people whom God has purified from sin through the blood of Jesus and who are his people.
+* The term “uncircumcised” refers to those who have not been circumcised physically. It can also refer figuratively to those who have not been circumcised spiritually, who do not have a relationship with God.
+
+The terms “uncircumcised” and “uncircumcision” refer to a male who has not been physically circumcised. These terms are also used figuratively.
+
+* Egypt was a nation that also required circumcision. So when God talks about Egypt being defeated by the “uncircumcised,” he is referring to people whom the Egyptians despised for not being circumcised.
+* The Bible refers to people who have an “uncircumcised heart” or who are “uncircumcised in heart.” This a figurative way of saying that these people are not God’s people, and are stubbornly disobedient to him.
+
+* If a word for circumcision is used or known in the language, “uncircumcised” could be translated as “not circumcised.”
+* The expression “the uncircumcision” could be translated as “people who are not circumcised” or “people who do not belong to God,” depending on the context.
+* Other ways to translate figurative senses of this term could include “not God’s people” or “rebellious like those who don’t belong to God” or “people who have no sign of belonging to God.”
+* The expression “uncircumcised in heart” could be translated as “stubbornly rebellious” or “refusing to believe.” However, if possible it is best to keep the expression or a similar one since spiritual circumcision is an important concept.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* If the culture of the target language performs circumcisions on males, the word used to refer to this should be used for this term.
+* Other ways to translate this term would be, “cut around” or “cut in a circle” or “cut off the foreskin.”
+* In cultures where circumcision is not known, it may be necessary to explain it in a footnote or glossary.
+* Make sure the term used to translate this does not refer to females. It may be necessary to translate this with a word or phrase that includes the meaning of “male.”

+# clean, wash
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “clean” generally refers either to removing dirt or stains from someone/something or to not having any dirt or stain in the first place. The term “wash” refers specifically to action of removing dirt or stains from someone/something.
+
+* “Cleanse” is the process of making something “clean.” It could also be translated as “wash” or “purify.”
+* In the Old Testament, God told the Israelites which animals he had specified as ritually “clean” and which ones were “unclean.” Only the clean animals were permitted to be used for eating or for sacrifice. In this context, the term “clean” means that the animal was acceptable to God for use as a sacrifice.
+* A person who had certain skin diseases would be unclean until the skin was healed enough to no longer be contagious. Instructions for cleansing the skin had to be obeyed in order for that person to be declared “clean” again.
+* Sometimes “clean” is used figuratively to refer to moral purity, meaning to be “clean” from sin.
+
+In the Bible, the term “unclean” is used figuratively to refer to things that God declared to be unfit for his people to touch, eat, or sacrifice.
+
+* God gave the Israelites instructions about which animals were “clean” and which ones were “unclean.” The unclean animals were not permitted to be used for eating or for sacrifice.
+* People with certain skin diseases were said to be “unclean” until they were healed.
+* If the Israelites touched something “unclean,” they themselves would be considered unclean for a certain period of time.
+* Obeying God’s commands about not touching or eating unclean things kept the Israelites set apart for God’s service.
+* This physical and ritual uncleanness was also symbolic of moral uncleanness.
+* In another figurative sense, an “unclean spirit” refers to an evil spirit.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* This term could be translated with the common word for “clean” or “pure” (in the sense of being not dirty).
+* Other ways to translate this could include, “ritually clean” or “acceptable to God.”
+* “Cleanse” could be translated by “wash” or “purify.”
+* Make sure that the words used for “clean” and “cleanse” can also be understood in a figurative sense.
+
+* The term “unclean” could also be translated as “not clean” or “unfit in God’s eyes” or “physically unclean” or “defiled.”
+* When referring to a demon as an unclean spirit, “unclean” could be translated as “evil” or “defiled.”
+* The translation of this term should allow for spiritual uncleanness. It should be able to refer to anything that God declared as unfit for touching, eating, or sacrifice.

+# conscience
+
+## Definition:
+
+The conscience is the part of a person’s thinking through which God makes him aware that he is doing something sinful.
+
+* God gave people a conscience to help them know the difference between what is right and what is wrong.
+* A person who obeys God is said to have a “pure” or “clear” or “clean” conscience.
+* If a person has a “clear conscience” it means that he is not hiding any sin.
+* If someone ignores their conscience and no longer feels guilty when he sins, this means his conscience is no longer sensitive to what is wrong. The Bible calls this a “seared” conscience, one that is “branded” as if with a hot iron. Such a conscience is also called “insensitive” and “polluted.”
+* Possible ways to translate this term could include, “inner moral guide” or “moral thinking.”

+# cornerstone
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “cornerstone” refers to a large stone that has been specially cut and placed in the corner of the foundation of a building.
+
+* All the other stones of the building are measured and placed in relation to the cornerstone.
+* It is very important for the strength and stability of the whole structure.
+* In the New Testament, the Assembly of believers is metaphorically compared to a building which has Jesus Christ as its “cornerstone.”
+* In the same way that the cornerstone of a building supports and determines the position of the whole building, so Jesus Christ is the cornerstone on which the Assembly of believers is founded and supported.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* The term “cornerstone” could also be translated as “main building stone” or “foundation stone.”
+* Consider whether the target language has a term for a part of a building’s foundation that is the main support. If so, this term could be used.
+* Another way to translate this would be, “a foundation stone used for the corner of a building.”
+* It is important to keep the fact that this is a large stone, used as a solid and secure building material. If stones are not used for constructing buildings, there may be another word that could be used that means “large stone” (such as “boulder”) but it should also have the idea of being well-formed and made to fit.

+# covenant
+
+## Definition:
+
+In the Bible, the term “covenant” refers to a formal, binding agreement between two parties that one or both parties must fulfill.
+
+* This agreement can be between individuals, between groups of people, or between God and people.
+* When people make a covenant with each other, they promise that they will do something, and they must do it.
+* Examples of human covenants include marriage covenants, business agreements, and treaties between countries.
+* Throughout the Bible, God made several different covenants with his people.
+* In some of the covenants, God promised to fulfill his part without conditions. For example, when God established his covenant with mankind promising to never destroy the earth again with a worldwide flood, this promise had no conditions for people to fulfill.
+* In other covenants, God promised to fulfill his part only if the people obeyed him and fulfilled their part of the covenant.
+
+The term “new covenant” refers to the commitment or agreement God made with his people through the sacrifice of his Son, Jesus.
+
+* God’s “new covenant” was explained in the part of the Bible called the “New Testament.”
+* This new covenant is in contrast to the “old” or “former” covenant that God had made with the Israelites in Old Testament times.
+* The new covenant is better than the old one because it is based on the sacrifice of Jesus, which completely atoned for people’s sins forever. The sacrifices made under the old covenant did not do this.
+* God writes the new covenant on the hearts those who become believers in Jesus. This causes them to want to obey God and to begin to live holy lives.
+* The new covenant will be completely fulfilled in the end times when God establishes his reign on earth. Everything will once again be very good, as it was when God first created the world.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Depending on the context, ways to translate this term could include, “binding agreement” or “formal commitment” or “pledge” or “contract.”
+* Some languages may have different words for covenant depending on whether one party or both parties have made a promise they must keep. If the covenant is one-sided, it could be translated as “promise” or “pledge.”
+* Make sure the translation of this term does not sound like people proposed the covenant. In all cases of covenants between God and people, it was God who initiated the covenant.
+
+* The term “new covenant” could be translated as “new formal agreement” or “new pact” or “new contract.”
+* The word “new” in these expressions has the meaning of “fresh” or “new kind of” or “another.”

+## Definition:
+
+In Bible times, a cross was an upright wooden post stuck into the ground, with a horizontal wooden beam attached to it near the top.
+
+* During the time of the Roman Empire, the Roman government would execute criminals by tying or nailing them to a cross and leaving them there to die.
+* Jesus was falsely accused of crimes he did not commit and the Romans put him to death on a cross.

+# deacon
+
+## Definition:
+
+A deacon is a person who serves in the local church, helping fellow believers with practical needs, such as food or money.
+
+* The word “deacon” is taken directly from a Greek word meaning “servant” or “minister.”
+* From the time of the early Christians, being a deacon has been a well-defined role and ministry in the Church body.
+* For example, in the New Testament, deacons would make sure that whatever money or food that the believers shared would be distributed fairly to the widows among them.
+* The term “deacon” could also be translated as “church minister” or “church worker” or “church servant,” or some other phrase that shows that the person has been formally appointed to do specific tasks that benefit the local Christian community.

+# demon, evil spirit, unclean spirit
+
+## Definition:
+
+All these terms refer to demons, which are spirit beings that oppose God’s will.
+
+* God created angels to serve him. When the devil rebelled against God, some of the angels also rebelled and were thrown out of heaven. It is believed that demons and evil spirits are these “fallen angels.”
+* Sometimes these demons are called “unclean spirits.” The term “unclean” means “impure” or “evil” or “unholy.”
+* Because demons serve the devil, they do evil things. Sometimes they live inside people and control them.
+* Demons are more powerful than human beings, but not as powerful as God.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* The term “demon” could also be translated as “evil spirit.”
+* The term “unclean spirit” could also be translated as “impure spirit” or “corrupt spirit” or “evil spirit.”
+* Make sure that the word or phrase used to translate this term is different from the term used to refer to the devil.
+* Also consider how the term “demon” is translated in a local or national language. (See: [How to Translate Unknowns](rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown))

+# chosen, choose, chosen people, Chosen One, elect
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “the elect” literally means “chosen ones” or “chosen people” and refers to those whom God has appointed or selected to be his people. “Chosen One” or “Chosen One of God” is a title that refers to Jesus, who is the chosen Messiah.
+
+* The term “choose” means to select something or someone or to decide something. It is often used to refer to God appointing people to belong to him and to serve him.
+* To be “chosen” means to be “selected” or “appointed” to be or do something.
+* God chose people to be holy, to be set apart by him for the purpose of bearing good spiritual fruit. That is why they are called “the chosen (ones)” or “the elect.”
+* The term “chosen one” is sometimes used in the Bible to refer to certain people such as Moses and King David whom God had appointed as leaders over his people. It is also used to refer to the nation of Israel as God’s chosen people.
+* The phrase “the elect” is an older term that literally means “the chosen ones” or “the chosen people.” This phrase in the original language is plural when referring to believers in Christ.
+* In older English Bible versions, the term “elect” is used in both the Old and New Testaments to translate the word for “chosen one(s).” More modern versions use “elect” only in the New Testament, to refer to people who have been saved by God through faith in Jesus. Elsewhere in the Bible text, they translate this word more literally as “chosen ones.”
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* It is best to translate “elect” with a word or phrase that means “chosen ones” or “chosen people.” This could also be translated as “people whom God chose” or “the ones God appointed to be his people.”
+* The phrase “who were chosen” could also be translated as “who were appointed” or “who were selected” or “whom God chose.”
+* “I chose you” could be translated as “I appointed you” or “I selected you.”
+* In reference to Jesus, “Chosen One” could also be translated as “God’s chosen One” or “God’s specially appointed Messiah” or “the One God appointed (to save people).”

+A false god is something that people worship instead of the one true God. The term “goddess” refers specifically to a female false god.
+
+* These false gods or goddesses do not exist. Yahweh is the only God.
+* People sometimes make objects into idols to worship as symbols of their false gods.
+* In the Bible, God’s people frequently turned away from obeying him in order to worship false gods.
+* Demons often deceive people into believing that the false gods and idols they worship have power.
+* Baal, Dagon, and Molech were three of the many false gods that were worshiped by people in Bible times.
+* Asherah and Artemis (Diana) were two of the goddesses that ancient peoples worshiped.
+
+An idol is an object that people make so they can worship it. Something is described as “idolatrous” if it involves giving honor to something other than the one true God.
+
+* People make idols to represent the false gods that they worship.
+* These false gods do not exist; there is no God besides Yahweh.

+* The term “idol” could be used to refer to false gods.
+* In English, a lower case “g” is used to refer to false gods, and upper case “G” is used to refer to the one true God. Other languages also do that.
+* Another option would be to use a completely different word to refer to the false gods.
+* Some languages may add a word to specify whether the false god is described as male or female.

+
+## Facts:
+
+The term “Gentile” refers to anyone who is not a Jew. Gentiles are people who are not descendants of Jacob.
+
+* In the Bible, the term “uncircumcised” is also used figuratively to refer to Gentiles because many of them did not circumcise their male children as the Israelites did.
+* Because God chose the Jews to be his special people, they thought of the Gentiles as outsiders who could never be God’s people.
+* The Jews were also called “Israelites” or “Hebrews” at different times in history. They referred to anyone else as a “Gentile.”
+* Gentile could also be translated as “not a Jew” or “non-Jewish” or “not an Israelite” (Old Testament) or “non-Jew.”.
+* Traditionally, Jews would neither eat with nor associate with Gentiles, which at first caused problems within the early church.

+# God
+
+## Definition:
+
+In the Bible, the term “God” refers to the eternal being who created the universe out of nothing. God exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God’s personal name is “Yahweh.”
+
+* God has always existed; he existed before anything else existed, and he will continue to exist forever.
+* He is the only true God and has authority over everything in the universe.
+* God is perfectly righteous, infinitely wise, holy, sinless, just, merciful, and loving.
+* He is a covenant-keeping God, who always fulfills his promises.
+* People were created to worship God and he is the only one they should worship.
+* God revealed his name as “Yahweh,” which means “he is” or “I am” or “the One who (always) exists.”
+* The Bible also teaches about false “gods,” which are nonliving idols that people wrongly worship.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Ways to translate “God” could include “Deity” or “Creator” or “Supreme Being” or “Supreme Creator” or “Infinite Sovereign Lord” or “Eternal Supreme Being.”
+* Consider how God is referred to in a local or national language. There may also already be a word for “God” in the language being translated. If so, it is important to make sure that this word fits the characteristics of the one true God as described above.
+* Many languages capitalize the first letter of the word for the one true God, to distinguish it from the word for a false god. Another way to make this distinction would be to use different terms for “God” and “god.” NOTE: In the biblical text, when a person who does not worship Yahweh speaks about Yahweh and uses the word “god,” it is acceptable to render the term without a capital letter in reference to Yahweh (see Jonah 1:6, 3:9).
+* The phrase “I will be their God and they will be my people” could also be translated as “I, God, will rule over these people and they will worship me.”

+# God the Father, heavenly Father, Father
+
+## Facts:
+
+The terms “God the Father” and “heavenly Father” refer to Yahweh, the one true God. Another term with the same meaning is “Father,” used most often when Jesus was referring to him.
+
+* God exists as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Each one is fully God, and yet they are only one God. This is a mystery that mere humans cannot fully understand.
+* God the Father sent God the Son (Jesus) into the world and he sends the Holy Spirit to his people.
+* Anyone who believes in God the Son becomes a child of God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit comes to live in that person. This is another mystery that human beings cannot fully understand.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* In translating the phrase “God the Father,” it is best to translate “Father” with the same word that the language naturally uses to refer to a human father.
+* The term “heavenly Father” could be translated by “Father who lives in heaven” or “Father God who lives in heaven” or “God our Father from heaven.”
+* Usually “Father” is capitalized when it, refers to God.

+# Hades, Sheol
+
+## Definition:
+
+The terms “Hades” (in Greek) and “Sheol” (in Hebrew) are proper names for the place where the spirits of dead people would go after they had died. 
+
+* In these ancient cultures, people thought of this as an underground dwelling place where the spirits of dead people existed in a shadowy, semi-conscious form.
+* Although these terms are place names, in the Bible they often mean the same thing as "death" or "the grave."
+* Throughout most of biblical history, “Sheol” and “Hades” refer to a neutral place where all of the dead go to await judgment, both the righteous and the unrighteous. In the New Testament, however, “Hades” begins to be seen as a place for only the unrighteous, in contrast with “Abraham's side” (Luke 16:22) or “paradise” (Luke 23:43), which describe the place for the righteous. 
+
+## Translation Suggestions
+
+* Both “Sheol” and “Hades” can be translated in various ways, depending on the context. Some possibilities include: “place of the dead,” “place for dead spirits,” “the underworld,” “the pit,” “the grave,” or “death.”
+* Some translations keep the proper names “Sheol” and “Hades,” spelling them to fit the sound patterns of the language of translation. (See: [How to Translate Unknowns](rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown)).
+* A phrase could also be added to each term to explain it. Examples of doing this are, “Sheol, place where dead people are” and “Hades, place of death.”

+# heaven, sky, heavens, heavenly
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term that is translated as “heaven” usually refers to where God lives. The same word can also mean “sky,” depending on the context.
+
+* The term “heavens” refers to everything we see above the earth, including the sun, moon, and stars. It also includes the heavenly bodies, such as far-off planets, that we can’t directly see from the earth.
+* The term “sky” refers to the blue expanse above the earth that has clouds and the air we breathe. Often the sun and moon are also said to be “up in the sky.”
+* In some contexts in the Bible, the word “heaven” could refer to either the sky or the place where God lives.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* For “kingdom of heaven” in the book of Matthew, it is best to keep the word “heaven” since this is distinctive to Matthew’s gospel.
+* The terms “heavens” or “heavenly bodies” could also be translated as “sun, moon, and stars” or “all the stars in the universe.”
+* The phrase, “stars of heaven” could be translated as “stars in the sky” or “stars in the galaxy” or “stars in the universe.”

+# Hebrew
+
+## Facts:
+
+The term “Hebrew” refers in a very general sense to the people group descended from Abraham through the line of Isaac and Jacob.
+
+* The specific word “Hebrew” can refer either to a individual person in the people group or to the language spoken by that people group.
+* The vast majority of the Old Testament was written in the language called “Hebrew.” However, in most cases in the New Testament, the specific term “Hebrew” probably refers to the Aramaic language rather than the Hebrew language.
+* In different places in the Bible, the Hebrews were also called “Israelites” or “Jews.” When translating, it is best to keep all three terms distinct in the text, as long as it is clear that these terms refer to the same people group.

+# hell, lake of fire
+
+## Definition:
+
+Hell is the final place of unending pain and suffering where God will punish everyone who rebels against him and rejects his plan of saving them through Jesus’ sacrifice. It is also referred to as the “lake of fire.”
+
+* Hell is described as a place of fire and severe suffering.
+* Satan and the evil spirits who follow him will be thrown into hell for eternal punishment.
+* People who do not believe in Jesus’ sacrifice for their sin and do not trust in him to save them, will be punished forever in hell.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* These terms should probably be translated differently since they occur in different contexts.
+* Some languages cannot use “lake” in the phrase “lake of fire” because it refers to water.
+* The term “hell” could be translated as “place of suffering” or “final place of darkness and pain.”
+* The term “lake of fire” could also be translated as “sea of fire” or “huge fire (of suffering)” or “field of fire.”

+# high priest, chief priests
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “high priest” refers to a special priest who was appointed to serve for one year as the leader of all of the other Israelite priests. In New Testament times, some other priests were also considered very important Jewish religious leaders, with authority over other priests and the people. These were the chief priests.
+
+* The high priest had special responsibilities. He was the only one who was permitted to go into the most holy part of the tabernacle or the temple to offer a special sacrifice once per year.
+* The Israelites had many priests, but only one high priest at a time.
+* After high priests retired, they still kept the title, along with some of the responsibilities of the office. For example, Annas was still referred to as high priest during the priesthood of Caiaphas and others.
+* The chief priests were responsible for everything needed for the worship services at the temple. They were also in charge of the money that was given to the temple.
+* The chief priests were higher in rank and power than the ordinary priests. Only the high priest had more authority.
+* The chief priests were some of Jesus’ main enemies and they strongly influenced the Roman leaders to arrest and kill him.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* “High priest” could be translated as “supreme priest” or “highest ranking priest.”
+* The term “chief priests” could be translated as “head priests” or “leading priests” or “ruling priests.”

+# holy, holiness, unholy, sacred
+
+## Definition:
+
+The terms “holy” and “holiness” refer to the character of God that is totally set apart and separated from everything that is sinful and imperfect.
+
+* Only God is absolutely holy. He makes people and things holy.
+* A person who is holy belongs to God and has been set apart for the purpose of serving God and bringing him glory.
+* An object that God has declared to be holy is one that he has set apart for his glory and use, such as an altar that is for the purpose of offering sacrifices to him.
+* People cannot approach him unless he allows them to, because he is holy and they are merely human beings, sinful and imperfect.
+* In the Old Testament, God set apart the priests as holy for special service to him. They had to be ceremonially cleansed from sin in order to approach God.
+* God also set apart as holy certain places and things that belonged to him or in which he revealed himself, such as his temple.
+
+Literally, the term “unholy” means “not holy.” It describes someone or something that does not honor God.
+
+* This word is used to describe someone who dishonors God by rebelling against him.
+* A thing that is called “unholy” could be described as being common, profane or unclean. It does not belong to God.
+
+The term “sacred” describes something that relates to worshiping God or to the pagan worship of false gods.
+
+* In the Old Testament, the term “sacred” was oftensed to describe the stone pillars and other objects used in the worship of false gods. This could also be translated as “religious.”
+* “Sacred songs” and “sacred music” refer to music that was sung or played for God’s glory. This could be translated as “music for worshiping Yahweh” or “songs that praise God.”
+* The phrase “sacred duties” referred to the “religious duties” or “rituals” that a priest performed to lead people in worshiping God. It could also refer to the rituals performed by a pagan priest to worship a false god
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* Ways to translate “holy” might include “set apart for God” or “belonging to God” or “completely pure” or “perfectly sinless” or “separated from sin.”
+* To “make holy” is often translated as “sanctify” in English. It could also be translated as “set apart (someone) for God’s glory.”
+
+* Ways to translate “unholy” could include “not holy” or “not belonging to God” or “not honoring to God” or “not godly.”
+* In some contexts, “unholy” could be translated as “unclean.”

+# Holy One
+
+## Definition:
+
+The term “Holy One” is a title in the Bible that almost always refers to God.
+
+* In the Old Testament, this title often occurs in the phrase “Holy One of Israel.”
+* In the New Testament, Jesus is also referred to as the “Holy One.”
+* The term “holy one” is sometimes used in the Bible to refer to an angel.

+* The literal term is “the Holy” (with “One” being implied.) Many languages (like English) will translate this with the implied noun included (such as “One” or “God”).
+* This term could also be translated as “God, who is holy” or “the Set Apart One.”
+* The phrase “the Holy One of Israel” could be translated as “the Holy God whom Israel worships” or “the Holy One who rules Israel.”
+* It is best to translate this term using the same word or phrase that is used to translate “holy.”

+# holy place
+
+## Definition:
+
+In the Bible, the terms “the holy place” and “the most holy place” refer to the two parts of the tabernacle or temple building.
+
+* The “holy place” was the first room, and it contained the altar of incense and the table with the special “bread of the presence” on it.
+* The “most holy place” was the second, innermost room, and it contained the ark of the covenant.
+* A thick, heavy curtain separated the outer room from the inner room.
+* The high priest was the only one who was permitted to go into the most holy place.
+* Sometimes “holy place” refers to both the building and courtyard areas of either the temple or tabernacle. It could also refer generally to any place that is set apart for God.
+
+## Translation Suggestions:
+
+* The term “holy place” could also be translated as “room set apart for God” or “special room for meeting God” or “place reserved for God.”
+* The term “most holy place” could be translated as “room that is the most set apart for God” or “most special room for meeting God.”
+* Depending on the context, ways to translate the general expression “a holy place” could include “a consecrated place” or “a place that God has set apart” or “a place in the temple complex, which is holy” or “a courtyard of God’s holy temple.”
