# believer #
## Definition: ##
In the Bible, the term "believer" refers to someone who believes in and relies on Jesus Christ as Savior.
* The term "believer" literally means "person who believes."
* The term "Christian" eventually came to be the main title for believers because it indicates that they believe in Christ and obey his teachings.
## Translation Suggestions: ##
* Some translations may prefer to say "believer in Jesus" or "believer in Christ."
* This term could also be translated by a word or phrase that means "person who trusts in Jesus" or "someone who knows Jesus and lives for him."
* Other ways to translate "believer" could be "follower of Jesus" or "person who knows and obeys Jesus."
* The term "believer" is a general term for any believer in Christ, while "disciple" and "apostle" were used more specifically for people who knew Jesus while he was alive. It is best to translate these terms in different ways, in order to keep them distinct.

* __[43:01](rc://en/tn/help/obs/43/01)__ After Jesus returned to heaven, the disciples stayed in Jerusalem as Jesus had commanded them to do. The __believers__ there constantly gathered together to pray.
* __[43:03](rc://en/tn/help/obs/43/03)__ While the __believers__ were all together, suddenly the house where they were was filled with a sound like a strong wind. Then something that looked like flames of fire appeared over the heads of all the __believers__.
* __[43:13](rc://en/tn/help/obs/43/13)__ Every day, more people became __believers__.
* __[46:06](rc://en/tn/help/obs/46/06)__ That day many people in Jerusalem started persecuting the followers of Jesus, so the __believers__ fled to other places. But in spite of this, they preached about Jesus everywhere they went.
* __[46:01](rc://en/tn/help/obs/46/01)__ Saul was the young man who guarded the robes of the men who killed Stephen. He did not believe in Jesus, so he persecuted the __believers__.
* __[46:09](rc://en/tn/help/obs/46/09)__ Some __believers__ who fled from the persecution in Jerusalem went far away to the city of Antioch and preached about Jesus…It was at Antioch that __believers__ in Jesus were first called "Christians."
* __[47:14](rc://en/tn/help/obs/47/14)__ They also wrote many letters to encourage and teach the __believers__ in the churches.

# Lord #
## Facts: ##
The term "Lord" refers to someone who has ownership or authority over people. It is capitalized, it is a title that refers to God. (Note, however, that when it is used as a form of addressing someone or it occurs at the beginning of a sentence it may be capitalized and have the meaning of "sir" or "master.")
* In the Old Testament, this term is also used in expressions such as "Lord God Almighty" or "Lord Yahweh" or "Yahweh our Lord."
* In the New Testament, the apostles used this term in expressions such as "Lord Jesus" and "Lord Jesus Christ," which communicate that Jesus is God.
* The term "Lord" in the New Testament is also used alone as a direct reference to God, especially in quotations from the Old Testament. For example, the Old Testament text has "Blessed is he who comes in the name of Yahweh" and the New Testament text has "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord."
* In the ULB and UDB, the title "Lord" is only used to translate the actual Hebrew and Greek words that mean "Lord." It is never used as a translation of God's name (Yahweh), as is done in many translations.
## Translation Suggestions: ##
* Some languages translate this term as "Master" or "Ruler" or some other term that communicates ownership or supreme rule.
* In the appropriate contexts, many translations capitalize the first letter of this term to make it clear to the reader that this is a title referring to God.
* For places in the New Testament where there is a quote from the Old Testament, the term "Lord God" could be used to make it clear that this is a reference to God.

# new covenant #
## Definition: ##
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: ##
* 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."

* __[21:05](rc://en/tn/help/obs/21/05)__ Through the prophet Jeremiah, God promised that he would make a __New Covenant__, but not like the covenant God made with Israel at Sinai. In the __New Covenant__, God would write his law on the people's hearts, the people would know God personally, they would be his people, and God would forgive their sins. The Messiah would start the __New Covenant__.
* __[21:14](rc://en/tn/help/obs/21/14)__ Through the Messiah's death and resurrection, God would accomplish his plan to save sinners and start the __New Covenant__.
* __[38:05](rc://en/tn/help/obs/38/05)__ Then Jesus took a cup and said, "Drink this. It is my blood of the __New Covenant__ that is poured out for the forgiveness of sins. Do this to remember me every time you drink it."
* __[48:11](rc://en/tn/help/obs/48/11)__ But God has now made a __New Covenant__ that is available to everyone. Because of this __New Covenant__, anyone from any people group can become part of God's people by believing in Jesus.

# uncircumcised, uncircumcision #
## Definition: ##
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.
## Translation Suggestions: ##
* 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.

## Definition:
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.

* If the Israelites touched something "unclean," they themselves would be considered unclean for a certain period of time.

* In another figurative sense, an "unclean spirit" refers to an evil spirit.
## Translation Suggestions: ##
* 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."

# unlawful, not lawful #
## Definition: ##
The terms "unlawful" and "not lawful" are used to describe actions that break a law.
* In the New Testament, the term "unlawful" is not only used to refer to breaking God's laws, but also often refers to breaking Jewish man-made laws.
* Over the years, the Jews added to the laws that God gave to them. The Jewish leaders would call something "unlawful" if it did not conform to their man-made laws.
* When Jesus and his disciples were picking grain on a Sabbath day, the Pharisees accused them of doing something "unlawful" because it was breaking the Jewish laws about not working on that day.
