Boyd’s Bible Dictionary
:
The Supreme Being in all his
nature
and attributes
(
Acts 17:29
29
Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. (Acts 17:29)
;
Rom. 1:20
20
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: (Romans 1:20)
;
Col. 2:9
9
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. (Colossians 2:9)
).
“Divine” From
Concise Bible Dictionary
:
In
2 Peter 1:3-4
3
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4
Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. (2 Peter 1:3‑4)
,
the word
is θεῖος, “of or pertaining to
God
.” His divine
power
hath given us all things that pertain to
life
and
godliness
; also, through the communication of exceeding great and precious promises, believers become partakers of the divine
nature
. In Hebrews 9:1 The word is λατρεία, “ordinances of service” (the word “divine” is better left out, though it was God who gave the
Old
Testament
ritual). The same word is translated “service” in
John 16:2
2
They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. (John 16:2)
;
Romans 9:4
4
Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; (Romans 9:4)
and
Romans 12:1
1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. (Romans 12:1)
