Rehearse

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

re-hurs' (sum, dabhar, naghadh, tanah; anaggello): Usually means simply "to relate," "to tell," "to declare" (Ex 17:14;Jud 5:11;1Sa 8:21;17:31;Ac 14:27); with "rehearse from the beginning" inAc 11:4for archomai, "begin" (so the Revised Version (British and American)). the Revised Version (British and American) has preserved uniformity by translating anaggello by "rehearse" also inAc 15:4, and has introduced "rehearse" as the translation of exegeomai, throughout (Lu 24:35;Ac 10:8;15:12,14;21:19), except inJoh 1:18("declare"). Sirach 19:7, the King James Version has "rehearse" for deuteroo, "repeat" (so the Revised Version (British and American)).
