The Definition of Righteoussness
"义“的定义
The Greek word that we translate as righteous is dike (pronounced, dee-kay). And while the ancient Greek meaning was tendency,the use of this word in the Bible implies justice and conformance to established standards. Justice means doing the right thing, and conformance to established standards (in the Bible) refers to following the ways of God. So, the word righteous can also be translated as just, since righteousness is so closely tied to justice.
被译成“义”(righteousness)的希腊文词是dike(音:笛凯)。在古希腊语中它的意思是倾向,在圣经中的意思是“正义”,“符合已经定立的标准”。“正义”意思是“做正确的事”和“符合(圣经中)已经定立的标准”,是指要走神指引的道路。所以,“义”也可译成“正直”(或公义),因为“义"也与“正义”意义接近。从上文看,Righteous,Righteousness英文相当于just和justice,中文相当于“正义”用于社会,“正直”用于人,另一个帮助理解的翻译选择是“正”,表示正确,合乎标准。
