Definition: The word "civil" in the Bible refers to the realm or state of people, but does not specify a specific geographical location. This term most likely refers to human society, which was initially understood as a community living together under God’s rule. The word "eng2" can mean both a number and an adjective, but it is more commonly used in the context of being engaged. It indicates that a person is fully engaged or completely committed to something, often through the faith or moral principle of Christianity. This term was also used for a person's involvement in civil government.
