WORD LIST DEFINITIONS
The below defined words are very often mistranslated and/or misapplied in various versions of scripture. The definitons given below are most often from the Exhaustive Concordance of James Strong and show the KJV rendering. Where I have corrected the rendering is obvious and on occasion I have inseerted some comments concerning the word.
Hebrew = Ibriy
Chaldean = Kasdiy
1. ANGEL
a. Ibriy - mal'ak {mal-awk'} to despatch as a deputy; messenger. Also translated as ambassador, king, and messenger.
b. Kasdiy - mal'ak {mal-ak'} see #1 above
c. Greek - aggelos {ang'-el-os} a messenger. Also translated as messenger.
2. APOCALYPSE
Does not appear in this form in the KJV of the Scripture. See "revelation" (Word #34).
3. APOSTLE
a. Greek - apostolos {ap-os'-tol-os} a delegate. Also translated as messenger, and "he that is sent."
b. In 2 Korinthios (Corinthians) 15:13, the phrase "false apostle" is translated from the Greek word pseudapostolos which means false teacher or apostle.
4. BISHOP
a. Greek - episkope {ep-is-kop-ay'} inspection (for relief); by implication, superintendence. Translated as "office of a bishop," bishoprick, and visitation.
b. Greek - episkopos {ep-is'-kop-os} a superintendent. Also translated as overseer.
5. CARDINAL
Not a word of the scripture. From the Latin word cardinalis, which means literally, "that on which something depends or turns." Apparently the word has roots other than Greek, as there are similar words in Italian and French.
In the Roman Catholic Church the cardinal performs some of the functions assigned to the office of deacon in the Assembly that the Anointed built, except that the cardinal adds pomp and ceremony, with many rituals, duties, and clothes that are not described or outlined as belonging in that Assembly by the Word of Yahuwah.
6. CARNAL
a. Greek - sarkikos {sar-kee-kos'} pertaining to the flesh. Also translated as fleshly.
b. Greek - sarx {sarx} flesh. Also translated as carnal (-ly, -ly minded), and as flesh (-ly).
7. CATHOLIC
Not a word of the scripture. Anglicized version of the Latin word catholicus which in turn probably is derived from the Greek word katholikus. Both words mean universal, or general. If this word appears in the scriptural Greek, I can't find it. The English word "general" appears in Ibriym (Hebrews) 12:23 in conjunction with the word "assembly," and is translated from paneguris {pan-ay'-goo-ris} which means "general assembly."
8. CHRIST
a. Greek - Christos {khris-tos'} the Messiah, or Anointed of Yahuwah (the Mashiach).
9. CHRISTMAS
Not a word of the scripture. Does not appear in any version of the Sacred Scripture. Historical texts show that it is a combination of the title "Christ" and the Catholic Church's practice of "mass" as a religious service started during the reign of the emperor Constantine. Ergo, Christ-mass. Also shown by historical records to be an adopted holiday that was, and in some societies still is, the Saturnalia, or worship of the pagan god Saturn, with the giving of gifts, decorating of trees, etc. No reference anywhere in the Sacred Scripture that followers of the Anointed are supposed to remember or celebrate His birth, only His death till He comes. Compare Mithras in mythology.
10. CROSS
a. Greek - stauros {stow-ros} a stake or post, as set upright.
11. CRUCIFY
a. Greek - stauroo {stow-ro'-o} to impale on the stauros.
In Ibriym 6:6, the phrase "they crucify to themselves" is translated from the Greek word anastauroo {an-as-tow-ro'-o}, which means, "to impale again."
12. DEVIL
a. Greek - daimonizomai {dahee-id'-zom'ahee} to be exercised by a demon. Translated into the phrases "have a (be vexed with, be possessed with) devil (-s)."
b. Greek - daimonion {dahee-mon'-ee-on} a demonic being. Also translated as "a god."

d. Greek - matheteuo {math-ayt-yoo'-o} appears only in MattithYahuw (Matthew) 27:57 as disciple, and means "to become a pupil." Also translated as instruct, and teach.
14. EASTER
a. Greek - pascha {pas'-khah} the Passover. Translated as Easter only in Acts 12:4 in the KJV of the Scriptures. Everywhere else it appears, it is correctly rendered Passover. The title Easter is a variant of the name of the pagan goddess Astarte, Eostre, Isis, or whatever else she was and still is called. She is also called the "goddess of heaven" and "the mother of god" and has most or all of the characteristics attributed to Mary by the Roman Catholic Church. The Catholic Church often refers to their Mary as the "goddess of heaven" and as the "Mother of God". Look at "Council of Nicea" in history.

Translated from two separate Greek words. Holy is from hagios {hag'- ee-os}, meaning set apart, and Ghost and Spirit are both from pneuma {pnyoo'-mah}, meaning a current of air, or breath. Ghost is also translated as life, spirit (-ual, -ually), and mind. The phrase "Holy Ghost" only appears in the Greek language portion of the scripture, and should be rendered as Sacred Spirit.
