The inadequacy of translating didaskalia as teaching/doctrine is evidenced in Titus 2:1-10 by the theme of spiritual character development. Can’t find any Christian articles but here is a secular discussion.

Can you imagine Rahab’s perspective after her new allegiance because of her faith? As the Israelites are marching against Jericho, she thinks, “My people are coming for me.” A new inheritance coming soon. Faith and hope.
@PlumblineFaith Ideas in the Greek: Acts 14:23 ~ Vote, appoint; Commend, set before, present. 1 Timothy 3:10 of deacons ~ tested, approved. Titus 1:5 ~ set in order further; Set in order, appoint, sometimes translated as “put in charge”. Where are recognize, acknowledge, and emerge?
@PlumblineFaith I understand your point. My point is that if we are going to insist on biblical truth of elder/overseer versus senior pastor, we should also insist on biblical truth concerning appoint/ordain versus emerge/recognize, which I’m not finding those terms.
The first mention of Messiah-King is by Hannah. 2 Samuel 2:1-10 is foundational for Messianic prophecy. Messiah, the nature of His kingdom (exalting the humble and abasing the proud), the resurrection, the judgment. Psalm 113 uses the same language.
@dailyspurgeon But God has revealed them unto us by His Spirit, because the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God, I Corinthians 2:10.
