Definition: The word "Amarynceus" appears in several biblical texts, specifically within the New Testament, especially in the writings of Jesus, Paul, and the apostles Peter and James, as well as in the books of the prophets. In the Bible: 1. In John 5:23-24 (John the Baptist): The phrase "Amarynceus" means "a messenger from God" or "an ambassador from God." 2. In Mark 16:17-18 (Mark's Gospel): The word "Amarynceus" is used to refer to a spiritual agent that Jesus had sent into the world with his followers, and it refers to him as a messenger of God. 3. In Acts 7:55-56 (Acts of the Apostles): In this verse, "Amarynceus" means "a prophet who has been appointed by God for prophesying in the name of the Lord Jesus." In summary: - Amarynceus is a term used to describe a messenger sent from God, usually by one sent out of Israel (John 5:23; Mark 16:17-18) or by a prophet appointed by God. - The phrase "a messenger" can also be interpreted as "an ambassador," indicating that the message is conveyed through someone who has been chosen to represent God. The word "Amarynceus" was not only used figuratively in these texts, but it is also found in various New Testament epistles and other writings. It seems there may have been a common usage of this term by early Christians, indicating its use among the apostle Peter himself.
