the grace-gift
| Root | χάρισμα (chárisma) |
| Core Meanings | grace-gift, favor-bestowal, gracious endowment, freely-given benefit |
| Semantic Range | a gracious gift, divine favor concretely expressed, spiritual endowment, special enablement, deliverance granted by grace |
| Conceptual Significance | In the New Testament, χάρισμα emphasizes that spiritual abilities and salvific benefits originate in divine grace rather than human merit. It underscores the gracious initiative of God in granting life, service-capacity, and deliverance to His people. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, neuter, nominative singular (NNS) and accusative singular (ANS) forms attested; neuter singular noun functioning as subject or direct object. |
| Rendering Rationale | χάρισμα derives from χάρις (grace, favor) and denotes something given as an expression of grace. Rendering it "the grace-gift" preserves the explicit connection to grace rather than using the more generic "gift." The morphology (neuter nominative/accusative singular) is reflected by the singular form "gift" with the definite article, suitable for either subject or direct object usage in context. |
