Leisure (To Have):
"to have leisure or opportunity" (eu, "well," kairos, "a time or season"), is translated "they had... leisure" in Mar 6:31; in Act 17:21, "spent their time" (RV, marg., "had leisure for"); in 1Cr 16:12, "he shall have opportunity," RV (AV, "... convenient time").
See CONVENIENT, OPPORTUNITY, SPEND.
This verb differs from scholazo, "to have leisure;" it stresses the opportunity of doing something, whereas scholazo stresses the "leisure" for engaging in it e.g., 1Cr 7:5, "(that) ye may give yourselves to."
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
