:''This article examines the Greek word. For the Christian radio station, see Rhema FM. For the technical usage in linguistics, see topic–comment''. Rhema (ῥῆμα in Greek) literally means an "utterance" or "thing said" in Greek.〔''The handbook of linguistics'' by Mark Aronoff, Janie Rees-Miller 2003 ISBN 1-4051-0252-7 page 83 ()〕 It is a word that signifies the action of utterance.〔''The Sophists (A History of Greek Philosophy, Vol. 3, Part 1)'' by W. K. C. Guthrie 1977 ISBN 0-521-09666-9 page 220 ()〕 In philosophy, it was used by both Plato and Aristotle to refer to propositions or sentences.〔 In Christianity, it is used in reference to the concept of ''Rhematos Christou''; Jesus Christ's sayings. ==Etymology== The Greek noun ῥῆμα "saying, utterance, word, verb" is analyzed as consisting of the root ἐρ-/ῥε- (er-/rhe-) "say" (cf. εἴρω "I say"; ἐρῶ "I will say") and the suffix -μα (-ma), a suffix used to form nouns from verbs. In the New Testament, this noun is used in such instances as 1 Peter : “τὸ δὲ ῥῆμα Κυρίου μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα” i.e. “the Lord's utterance/saying remains forever”, or more commonly, "the word of the Lord endureth for ever". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rhema」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
