1 | Strong's Number: g4592 | Greek: semeion |
Token:
"a sign, token or indication," is translated "token" in 2Th 3:17, of writing of the closing salutations, the Apostle using the pen himself instead of his amanuensis, his autograph attesting the authenticity of his Epistles.
See MIRACLE, SIGN.
2 | Strong's Number: g4953 | Greek: sussemon |
Token:
"a fixed sign or signal, agreed upon with others" (sun, "with"), is used in Mar 14:44, "a token." In the Sept., Jdg 20:38, 40; Isa 5:26; 49:22; 62:10.
3 | Strong's Number: g1730 | Greek: endeigma |
Token:
"a plain token, a proof" (akin to endeiknumi, "to point out, prove") is used in 2Th 1:5 "a manifest token," said of the patient endurance and faith of the persecuted saints at Thessalonica, affording proof to themselves of their new life, and a guarantee of the vindication by God of both Himself and them (see No. 4, Note).
4 | Strong's Number: g1732 | Greek: endeixis |
Token:
"a pointing out, showing forth," is rendered "evident token" in Phl 1:28.
See DECLARE, B, PROOF. Cp. apodeixis, 1Cr 2:4.
Note: No. 4 refers to the act or process of proving, No. 3 to the thing proved. While the two passages, Phl 1:28 and 2Th 1:5, contain similar ideas, endeigma indicates the "token" as acknowledged by those referred to; endeixis points more especially to the inherent veracity of the "token."
