Concise Bible Dictionary
:
Besides
the
word
πρόσφατος
,
for
the newly-made and living way in
Hebrews 10:20
20
By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; (Hebrews 10:20)
; and the word
ἄγναφος
for the new (unfulled, unfinished)
cloth
in
Matthew 9:16
16
No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse. (Matthew 9:16)
and
Mark 2:21
21
No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse. (Mark 2:21)
;
there
are two words translated “new,” the difference between which is important. One is
καινός
, “new” in the sense of never having existed or been
used
before, that is, new in the sense of “different”; and
νέος
“new” in the sense of “fresh, youthful.” The new (
νέοσ
)
wine
must be
put
into new (
καινός
) bottles (
Matt. 9:17
17
Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved. (Matthew 9:17)
). Except in
the Gospels
, in reference to the wine as above, the word
νέος
is used
only
in “a new lump” (
1 Cor. 5:7
7
Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: (1 Corinthians 5:7)
), “the new [
man
]” (
Col. 3:10
10
And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: (Colossians 3:10)
), “
the
new
covenant
” (
Heb. 12:24
24
And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. (Hebrews 12:24)
), and “
young
woman
” (
Titus 2:4
4
That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, (Titus 2:4)
). In
all
other
places the word employed is
καινός
, and
this
is important, as indicating the entirely different character of the new covenant,
the
new
creation
, the
new man
, the new heavens and the new
earth
, from all
that had
been. “He that sat upon the
throne
said, Behold I
make
all things new” (
Rev. 21:5
5
And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. (Revelation 21:5)
).
