| 1 | Strong's Number: g4221 | Greek: poterion |
Cup:
a diminutive of poter, denotes, primarily, a "drinking vessel;" hence, "a cup"
(a) literal, as, e.g., in Mat 10:42. The "cup" of blessing, 1Cr 10:16, is so named from the third (the fourth according to Edersheim) "cup" in the Jewish Passover Feast, over which thanks and praise were given to God. This connection is not to be rejected on the ground that the church at Corinth was unfamiliar with Jewish customs. That the contrary was the case, see 1Cr 5:7;
(b) figurative, of one's lot or experience, joyous or sorrowful (frequent in the Psalms; cp. Psa 116:18, "cup of salvation"); in the NT it is used most frequently of the sufferings of Christ, Mat 20:22, 23; 26:39; Mar 10:38, 39; 14:36; Luk 22:42; Jhn 18:11; also of the evil deeds of Babylon, Rev 17:4; 18:6; of Divine punishments to be inflicted, Rev 14:10; 16:19. Cp. Psa 11:6; 75:8; Isa 51:17; Jer 25:15; Eze 23:32-34; Zec 12:2.
