Strong's References
- G1515 — εἰρήνη (eirḗnē, i-ray'-nay): probably from a primary verb εἴρω (eírō) (to join); peace (literally or figuratively); by implication, prosperity; one, peace, quietness, rest, + set at one again
- G1722 — ἐν (en, en): a primary preposition denoting (fixed) position (in place, time or state), and (by implication) instrumentality (medially or constructively), i.e. a relation of rest (intermediate between εἰς (eis) G1519 and ἐκ (ek) G1537); "in," at, (up-)on, by, etc.; about, after, against, + almost, X altogether, among, X as, at, before, between, (here-)by (+ all means), for (… sake of), + give self wholly to, (here-)in(-to, -wardly), X mightily, (because) of, (up-)on, (open-)ly, X outwardly, one, X quickly, X shortly, (speedi-)ly, X that, X there(-in, -on), through(-out), (un-)to(-ward), under, when, where(-with), while, with(-in). Often used in compounds, with substantially the same import; rarely with verbs of motion, and then not to indicate direction, except (elliptically) by a separate (and different) preposition.
- G1775 — ἑνότης (henótēs, hen-ot-ace'): from εἷς (heîs) G1520; oneness, i.e. (figuratively) unanimity; unity
- G4151 — πνεῦμα (pneûma, pnyoo'-mah): from πνέω (pnéō) G4154; a current of air, i.e. breath (blast) or a breeze; by analogy or figuratively, a spirit, i.e. (human) the rational soul, (by implication) vital principle, mental disposition, etc., or (superhuman) an angel, demon, or (divine) God, Christ's spirit, the Holy Spirit; ghost, life, spirit(-ual, -ually), mind. Compare ψυχή (psychḗ) G5590.
- G4704 — σπουδάζω (spoudázō, spoo-dad'-zo): from σπουδή (spoudḗ) G4710; to use speed, i.e. to make effort, be prompt or earnest; do (give) diligence, be diligent (forward), endeavour, labour, study
- G4886 — σύνδεσμος (sýndesmos, soon'-des-mos): from σύν (sýn) G4862 and δεσμόν (desmón) G1199; a joint tie, i.e. ligament, (figuratively) uniting principle, control; band, bond
- G5083 — τηρέω (tēréō, tay-reh'-o): from τερός (terós) (a watch; perhaps akin to θεωρέω (theōréō) G2334); to guard (from loss or injury, properly, by keeping the eye upon; and thus differing from φυλάσσω (phylássō) G5442, which is properly to prevent escaping; and from κουστωδία (koustōdía) G2892, which implies a fortress or full military lines of apparatus), i.e. to note (a prophecy; figuratively, to fulfil a command); by implication, to detain (in custody; figuratively, to maintain); by extension, to withhold (for personal ends; figuratively, to keep unmarried); by extension, to withhold (for personal ends; figuratively, to keep unmarried); hold fast, keep(- er), (pre-, re-)serve, watch
