NOTE: HEBREW AND GREEK DEFINITIONS ARE MORE ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES THAN WEBSTERS DEFINITIONS.
THESE IDEAS AND DEFINITIONS, COME MAINLY FROM THE WEBSTERS DICTIONARY, THAT CONTAINS THE ARCHAIC MEANING ALSO.
ALSO, I USED THE CONCORDANCE OF HEBREW AND GREEK OF THE KING JAMES HOLY SCRIPTURES, FOR SOME OF THE MORE DEFINITIVE DEFINITIONS.
