I'll add my four, the purposes of human action:

mimesis: imitation, what is pleasure

didaxis: instruction, what is knowledge

zetesis: seeking, what is lost

sebesis: worship, what is perfect

The first two are given by Horace as the reason for literature (to please and instruct). The third, by Plato, and the fourth is most prominent in the Old and New Testament.

Our priest mentioned just last week the Greek for remmembering — as in “Do this in remembrance of me.”

If I remember correctly — and will the Greek lovers please correct me if I am mistaken.

aniamnesia or was it aniamnesis?

Notice that the last part of the word is amnesia — forgetting — so I think the beginning letters change it to remembering.

Can anyone recommend any good resources (books, online courses, etc.) for learning "Biblical Greek" and/or "Biblical Hebrew"?

Catholics do not worship Mary.’ The problem is technically we do. Worship is the umbrella term that encompasses both adoration and veneration. Here’s the best way to avoid the confusion, especially if you’re reading anything that was writing before the 1960s, or even the 1990s:

latria is the Latin term for adoration, or worship, of God. Dulia is the Latin term for veneration, or worship, of the saints. These terms, in turn, come directly from the Greek: latreia and douleia. Both Greek words have the basic meaning of service. To paraphrase Aquinas, latreia is the ‘service’ paid to God, while douleia is the ‘service’ we render to saints.

Rom 8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Is bondage ever good???

Douleia, on the other hand, also has secular contexts of servitude (for example, Romans 8:21)

bondage

δουλεία
douleia
doo-li'-ah
From G1398; slavery (ceremonially or figuratively): - bondage.

You are a slave to your saints...And a hyper-slave to Mary...So what's God say about this slavery that you agree to???

Rom 8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

Rom 8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

We are not in bondage to Mary or any saints...We are not their slaves and they are not our Masters...

We have glorious Liberty from God... When bondage (douleia) is used in the scriptures, it is never in a good sense...Never is it applied to anything heavenly...

You know, the root of the word Miller is a Greek word. Miller come from the Greek word "milo," which is mean "apple," so there you go. As many of you know, our name, Portokalos, is come from the Greek word "portokali," which mean "orange." So, okay? Here tonight, we have, ah, apple and orange. We all different, but in the end, we all fruit.
