40. Founded. Steadfast.

 
The words τεθεμελιωμένος (θεμελιόω) and ἐδραῖος have similar meanings. They both occur in Col. 1:2323If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; (Colossians 1:23): "grounded (τε.) and settled (ἐδ.)," or "founded and firm." τεθεμελιωμένος. (from θεμέλιος, ‘a foundation ') suggests the idea of being ‘secured to the foundation:' thus in Matt. 7:2525And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. (Matthew 7:25); Luke 6:4848He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. (Luke 6:48), it is "founded on a rock." In Heb. 1:1010And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: (Hebrews 1:10) the Lord "founded the earth;" Eph. 3:1717That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, (Ephesians 3:17), "rooted and founded in love;" and 1 Pet. 5:1010But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. (1 Peter 5:10), "make you perfect, strengthen, ‘found' you."
