[Greek or Hebrew] is rendered study, diligence, endeavour. But it is such a Diligence as hath 1an earnestness accompanying it: that is, as it were making haste in pressing towards the End and Accomplishment of any thing or business. And it doth always denote great and earnest diligence with study and desire. It is used to this purpose, 2 Pet. 1. 5.

[Greek or Hebrew], is, saith Hesychius, [Greek or Hebrew], firmitas, certitudo; stability. It is plena fides, plena persuasio, certa fides. A sure, stable, firm, certain Faith, or persuasion. 1The Vulgar Latin constantly renders this word, as also the Verb [Greek or Hebrew], by some word denoting filling or completing, taking its signification from the first part in the Composition. But whatever be the native signification of the single words whereof it is compounded, or with respect unto what Allusion soever the signification was first fixed, it is certain that in the best Authors as in the Scripture, it expresseth a full satisfactory persuasion of mind, or the highest assurance in any thing which from the nature of it we are capable of.
