The Church in Thyatira (Revelation 2:18-29)

Greek for the Week

The believers in Thyatira were faced with a choice: if they didn’t participate in pagan feasts risked losing their place in their guilds; if they did participate, they would let God down. To instruct the Thyatirans about this, Jesus described His feet. He says they’re like “burnished bronze.” The Greek word for “burnished bronze” is chalkolibano. It was a remarkable alloy, unmatched in purity, more valuable than gold. Jesus was saying he walks in holiness and moves in virtue and the believers in Thyatira needed to as well.
