I am doing a word study of G1345 (equatable deed, righteousness, statue, verdict (good or bad)) and I came across Revelation 19:8 and would like input on the verse (more references, side notes, etc...)

I look forward to Scriptural input.

(Rev 19:8) And it was granted to her so that she could have dressed herself with (2Aorist Middle voice Subjunctive = granted to have performed an action upon herself which had a result) pure and radiant fine linen, seeing that the fine linen (that which will take the place of our 'flesh') is the equatable deeds (KJV: righteousness) of the saints.

(it is the equatable deeds we do in conjunction with the Spirit which shall cloth us in eternity. We shine according to our multitude of equitable deeds (they who are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament and they who turn many to righteousness, as the stars forever and ever (Dan 12:3)))

hi! cfultz3:)
good thread!
i lOVE these studies!!
YAY!

~

here's what i have:

Revelation 19:8
And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
KJV

dikaióma: an ordinance, a sentence of acquittal or condemnation, a righteous deed
Original Word: δικαίωμα, ατος, τό
Part of Speech: Noun, Neuter
Transliteration: dikaióma
Phonetic Spelling: (dik-ah'-yo-mah)
Short Definition: a thing pronounced to be just
Definition: a thing pronounced (by God) to be righteous (just, the right); or the restoration of a criminal, a fresh chance given him; a righteous deed, an instance of perfect righteousness.

Cognate: 1345 dikaíōma (a neuter noun, literally, "a judicially-approved act") – properly, an act God approves, focusing on its "result" (Zodhiates, Dict, note the -ma ending); justification (righteousness), with its results. See 1343 (dikaiosynē).

1345 /dikaíōma ("an act which is right according to the Lord") is "an act of righteousness, a concrete expression of righteousness" (Vine, Unger, White, NT, 11) which correlates to its profound (eternal) effect. For the believer, this particularly relates to their unique glorification awarded at Christ's return (cf. Rev 19:8).

[1345 (dikaíōma) is "not merely divine decisions, but righteous acts generally" (WS). The emphasis here is on the results that go with having God's approval (righteousness).]


STRONGS NT 1345: δικαίωμα

δικαίωμα, δικαιώματος, τό (from δικαιόω; ὁ δεδικαίωται or τό δεδικαιωμενον), the Sept. very often for חֹק, חֻקָה, and מִשְׁפָּט; for מִצְוָה, Deuteronomy 30:16; 1 Kings 2:3; plural occasionally for פִּקּוּדִים;

1. that which has been deemed right so as to have the force of law;

a. what has been established and ordained by law, an ordinance: universally, of an appointment of God having the force of law, Romans 1:32; plural used of the divine precepts of the Mosaic law: τοῦ κυρίου, Luke 1:6; τοῦ νόμου, Romans 2:26; τό δικαίωμα τοῦ νόμου, collectively, of the (moral) precepts of the same law, Romans 8:4; δικαιώματα λατρείας, precepts concerning the public worship of God, Hebrews 9:1; δικαιώματα σαρκός, laws respecting bodily purity ((?) cf. Hebrews 7:16), Hebrews 9:10.

b. a judicial decision, sentence; of God — either the favorable judgment by which he acquits men and declares them acceptable to him, Romans 5:16; or unfavorable: sentence of condemnation, Revelation 15:4, (punishment, Plato, legg. 9, 864 e.).

2. a righteous act or deed: τά δικαιώματα τῶν ἁγίων, Revelation 19:8 (τῶν πατέρων, Baruch 2:19); ἑνός δικαίωμα, the righteous act of one (Christ) in his giving himself up to death, opposed to the first sin of Adam, Romans 5:18 (Aristotle, eth. Nic. 5, 7, 7, p. 1135{a}, 12f καλεῖται δέ μᾶλλον δικαιοπράγημα τό κοινόν, δικαίωμα δέ τό ἐπανόρθωμα τοῦ ἀδικηματος (cf. rhet. 1, 13, 1 and Cope's note on 1, 3, 9)). (Cf. references in δικαιόω.)

Revelation 19:8
And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
KJV

didómi: to give (in various senses lit. or fig.)
Original Word: δίδωμι
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: didómi
Phonetic Spelling: (did'-o-mee)
Short Definition: I offer, give
Definition: I offer, give; I put, place.

It's just all about Him!
AMEN!

Thank you very much for responding.

Do you know of any other references which speaks about our equitable deeds (deeds done in conjunction with the Spirit) being our 'clothing' in eternity?

i do not know of anything which says our good works will be our garments.
but maybe i haven't seen it yet.

for sure He ordained we would walk in good works. and Jesus says everytime we serve our neighbor we are serving Him. He does say about the people in the church in Rev not soiling their garments, and so walking with Him in white ("for they are worthy")...

so they are perhaps connected:confused:

just hard to think of Jesus calling us worthy:eek:

thanks for this thread!:) love it.


i'll wait and see what you have.

Something to also take into consideration while I was studying this:

Mat 13:43Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

1Co 15:41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
1Co 15:42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

What if I say:

our equitable deeds (.....) being our glory in eternity?

Does it mention where angels differ in glory (lumination)?

The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.

Sister,

By all means, all glory goes to our God and Savior. Amen.

I seek only to understand if our righteosness (equatable cojunctional deeds) will be our 'clothing' (glory)? I guess I am asking what effect will our cojunctional deeds have upon us eternally? And if those Spirit led deeds are our clothing, then will they be our glory (lumination)?

All that we willingly allowed of the perfections of Jesus emanate through us like a prism, His; light, life and Agape Love that we deem as our own identity is the substance that makes fine linen in His presence and kingdom.

So the more we let His essence shine through us (the more we become like Him), the more luminious from the Light we become? Just like there are different luminations of the stars, so too shall we shine forevermore as we become more 'oneness' with Him?

Oh blushes! I see the connection in your reply now. Do you think that God's rejoicing and bragging over His sons will be shown in the glory He will give to each accordingly?

i think Paul was talking about when we get our glorified bodies. the resurrection. eternity.

when the last enemy is destroyed, and Father wipes away every tear, and the former things are forgotten, never to be remembered, any more.

if He does give us glory, it will only be because we loved His Son.

What I mean about glory is: like the 12 apostles will be 12 fountains upon the walls of New Jerusalem. Their glory is a part of New Jerusalem, inasmuch as the 12 tribes will each have their gate to enter New Jerusalem.

The way I am using glory here means lumination (different decrees of brightness). Because of:

1Co 15:41There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.

I cannot help but to think that we shall shine accordinly as the stars shines with different brightness.

And when it comes to:

Pro 4:18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

If we are walking to the shining Light, then it gets brigher as we get closer. And when we die, we then stop walking to the Light (seeing that we are then present in the Light) and have reached a 'certain' brightness.

Is the last paragraph (concluded from the verse) saying that when we are transformed into our glorified bodies on that perfect Day that we will then shine as to the brightness we had on our path?

Please do not take me wrong, I am just curious as to Rev 19:8.

Eph. 1:18 That the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and the riches of the GLORY of his inheritance in the saints. 3:9,10 ,11 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that now unto principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose in Christ Jesus our lord. Col 1:26,27 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest by his saints: To whom Christ would make known what is the riches of the GLORY of this mystery among the gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of GLORY.
