Declaration; Declare

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia · James Orr and contributors

dek-la-ra'-shun, deklar': "Declare" is the translation of a variety of Hebrew and Greek words in the Old Testament and New Testament, appearing to bear uniformly the meaning "to make known," "set forth," rather than (the older meaning) "to explain" (De 1:5). Declaration (Es 10:2 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "full account"; Job 13:17; Ecc 43:6; Lu 11 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "narrative"; 2Co 8:19 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "to show") has the like meaning.
