I agree Tom Heneghan. Words are seldom pure in the meaning or usage. It is a big problem here in the US where people don’t even know the original meanings of words they quote from scripture a lot, and they abuse the misplaced meanings. As a Christian Leftist, I get on people’s cases all the time about that!
