The Beautiful Hebrew Word Behind the Gospel

Wednesday, April 14, 2021

The word Gospel is Jewish. Gospel music, Gospel preachers, Gospel choirs, Gospel recording artists, all Jewish and all from Israel. The Greek word behind Gospel in the New Testament is Euangellion. Euangellion is a translation of a Hebrew word that appears in the Book of Isaiah. It is written in Isaiah: "How lovely are the feet of those who bring glad tidings to the poor." Glad tidings means Good News or the Gospel. The Hebrew word behind it is Besorah, it means fresh and rosy cheeked. If you are not fresh in God, then you have gone away from the good news. Every time you hear the Gospel it has to be fresh. The Besorah has the power to make you fresh and new. Your life will be renewed, your love, your joy, your zeal, your prayer life, your work, your family, everything will become fresh and new as the Gospel. You will become rosy cheeked! rn
