Expanded definition:
consolation - G3874 - paraklesis - gen. parakleseos, fem. noun from parakaleo (3870), to beseech. The act of exhortation, encouragement, comfort. All of Scripture is actually a paraklesis, an exhortation, admonition or encouragement for the purpose of strengthening and establishing the believer in the faith (see Rom. 15:4; Phil. 2:1; Heb. 12:5; 13:22). Paul speaks of his preaching of the gospel as paraklesis in 1 Thess. 2:3 (see Acts 13:15; 2 Cor. 8:4), 17).
Comforting words, consolation (Acts 9:3; 2 Thess. 2:16; Phile 1:7; Heb 6:18), the opposite of tribulation and suffering in 2 Cor. 7:4 and joined with joy in 2 Cor. 7:7, 13 (see 2 Cor.1:3-7).
bowels - G4698 - splagchnon; gen. splagchnou, neut. noun. An intestine, bowel. In the NT only pl. ta splagchna, the bowels, viscera. In Class. Gr. writers, it is chiefly spoken of the upper viscera of animals, as the heart, lungs, and liver which were eaten during or after the sacrifice. In the NT, of persons generally, the intestines, bowels:
- (II) Figuratively, the inward parts indicating the breast or heart as the seat of emotions and passions. In the NT, of the gentler emotions as compassion, tender affection indicating the mind, soul, the inner man:
- (A) Generally (2 Cor 6:12, parallel with kardia (2588), the heart, in 6:11). See Phile 1:7, 20; 1 John 3:17; Sept.: Prov 1:10 (cf. Gen 43:30; 1 Kgs. 3:26).
Ant.: hardness of heart; hardness; callousness, hardness.
I am refreshed from having studied this verse. I pray that all who read will seek to know Him more intimately and be comforted by HIS Word.
