Lord, Rabboni

“Lord” From Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:

“Lord” From Concise Bible Dictionary:

1. adon, κύριος. These words are commonly translated “lord.” They are used as a term of respect as between man and man, as seen in the children of Heth to Abraham (Gen. 23:66Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty prince among us: in the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury thy dead. (Genesis 23:6)); between servants and masters, and once by a wife to her husband (Gen. 18:1212Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also? (Genesis 18:12); Luke 16:3,53Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed. (Luke 16:3)
5So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord? (Luke 16:5)
; 1 Pet. 3:66Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. (1 Peter 3:6)). The title “Lord” is applied to God (Psalm 90:11<<A Prayer of Moses the man of God.>> Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. (Psalm 90:1), Adonai), and in the New Testament to the Lord Jesus, not only as a term of respect, but as owning His constituted lordship (Acts 2:3636Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. (Acts 2:36); Phil. 2:1111And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:11)). He is emphatically the Lord as eclipsing every other for the Christian, who delights to appropriate Him as “My Lord” (Luke 1:4343And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? (Luke 1:43); John 20:1313And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him. (John 20:13); Phi. 3:8). To believers collectively He is “Our Lord Jesus Christ.”
