It is oſten used to refer to Jesus, somemes with the implicaon that Jesus is the “Master” or “Rabbi” of the disciples (e.g. John 13:13), other mes as a merely polite term of address for an unknown male (e.g. John 4:11), and somemes to declare Jesus as universal “Lord” of creaon (e.g. Acts 10:36). The term can also be used when God the Father is the clear referent (e.g. Mahew 11:25, Acts 17:24), as well as the Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 3:16-18). Kurios is also oſten used in quotaons or references to the Old Testament in places where the divine Name, יהוה(YHWH), is found in the Hebrew (e.g. Mahew 4:7, Acts 15:17). Finally, in several key passages, kurios is used to quote or allude to the divine Name while also clearly referring to Jesus, thus exhibing the astounding high Christology of the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that Jesus is in fact YHWH, the God of Israel, made flesh—truly man and truly God. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that: 1) Kurios plays an essenal role in establishing the high Christology of the New Testament. 2) More than any other term, kurios is used to e together the three members of the Trinity. 3) Contrary to claims otherwise, the term kurios funcons as a single key term, regardless of whether it used in the arthrous or anarthrous condion. 1 With valuable input and assistance from Mike Tisdell.

1 IntroductionThe Greek word κύριος (kurios lsquoLordrsquo) carries amazing theological weight in the New Testament It is often used torefer to Jesus sometimes with the implication that Jesus is the ldquoMasterrdquo or ldquoRabbirdquo of the disciples (eg John 1313) other times as a merely polite term of address for an unknown male (eg John 411) and sometimes to declare Jesus as universal ldquoLordrdquo of creation (eg Acts 1036) The term can also be used when God the Father is the clear referent (eg Matthew 1125 Acts 1724) as well as the Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 316-18) Kurios is also often used in quotations or references to the Old Testament in places where the divine Name יהוה (YHWH) is found in the Hebrew (eg Matthew 47 Acts 1517) Finally in several key passages kurios is used to quote or allude to the divine Name while also clearly referring to Jesus thus exhibiting the astounding high Christology of the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that Jesus is in fact YHWH the God of Israel made fleshmdashtruly man and truly God

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that

1) Kurios plays an essential role in establishing the high Christology of the New Testament

2) More than any other term kurios is used to tie together the three members of the Trinity

3) Contrary to claims otherwise the term kurios functions as a single key term regardless of whether it used in the arthrous or anarthrous condition

1 With valuable input and assistance from Mike Tisdell

4) When translating kurios therefore great care must be taken to preserve these essential theological roles

2 The Hebrew terms YHWH and Adon(ai)Our discussion of the theological role of kurios must begin with the two key Hebrew terms that are both rendered as kurios in the New Testament namely YHWH and Adon(ai)

also known as the ldquoTetragrammatonrdquo is Godrsquos self-revealed name In the Tanach YHWH always (YHWH) יהוהand only refers to the one true God the faithful God of Israel who leads His people out of Egypt continues to accomplish His purposes despite all their disobedience and promises restoration and the coming of the Messiah YHWH alone created the heavens and the earth (Isaiah 4424) and no other god exists except Him (Isaiah 446-8) YHWH is Godrsquos name not a title or a category (Isaiah 428 Exodus 315) As a name it is not declined or specified (eg ldquomy YHWHrdquo or ldquothe YHWH of Israelrdquo) as titles like Adon or Elohim can be2 Like most biblical names the nameof YHWH has meaningmdashthe story of God revealing His name to Moses in Exodus 3 suggests that it is a third person imperfect form of היה hayah ldquoto berdquo3 In other words the meaning of YHWH is probably ldquoHE ISrdquo or ldquoHE WILL BErdquo But it is used in Scripture first and foremost as a name not a word

In contrast אדון Adon means ldquolordrdquo or ldquomasterrdquo It is a title not a name While YHWH is our Adon He is not the only one with this title in the Scripturesmdashthe title Adon can refer to either YHWH (Psalm 975) or to human lords (Psalm 10521 1 Samuel 248) Sometimes the terms YHWH and Adon come together such as in Genesis 152 where Abram calls God ldquoאדני יהוהrdquo (Adonai YHWH or ldquoLord YHWHrdquo) where Adonai (related to Adon) is a title put before the name YHWH

We see the difference between the name YHWH and the title Adon clearly in Psalm 1101 where the Hebrew begins

נאם יהוה לאדני

nəmiddotrsquoum YHWH lamiddotḏōmiddotnicirc

Here David writes that YHWH is speaking to ldquomy Lordrdquo The speaker is clearly YHWH whereas it is not clear from this verse alone whom the title Adon refers to here since David does not say who ldquohis Lordrdquo is if not YHWH Jesus of course taught that the Adon in this verse is the Messiah namely Himself (Mt 2243-45 Mk 1236-37 Lk 2042-44)

In summary while YHWH is our Adon others can also be called Adon whereas YHWH is Godrsquos name and can only refer to the one true God

3 Brief survey of the usage of kurios in the New TestamentThe Greek word κύριος kurios ldquoLordrdquo is a translation of Adon(ai) While biblical prophets such as David Moses and Isaiah pronounced the name of YHWH freely at some point after the exile Jews began to fear speaking the name of YHWH concerned that they would somehow break Godrsquos commandment not to take His name in vain (Exodus 207) Instead they substituted the title Adonai for the name YHWH when speaking Many early manuscripts of the Old Testament translated into Greek contain the name YHWH in various formsmdashtransliterated into Greek as Ιαω visually imitating the Hebrew יהוה by writing the Greek letters ΠΙΠΙ or kept in Hebrew (יהוה) oreven Paleo-Hebrew script (678446784567844)4 At some point either Jewish or Christian scribes instead of using Hebrew or

2 One common form may perhaps be a specification of YHWH namely YHWH Tsevarsquoot or ldquoYHWH of hostsrdquo but this does not imply that YHWH in this instance is a title or a class noun

3 More precisely it seems to be derived from the archaic form for היה namely הוה 4 Bruce M Metzger (1981) Manuscripts of the Greek Bible An Introduction to Palaeography Oxford University Press 33ndash

Greek transliterated forms of YHWH began translating the spoken form Adonai into Greek as Kurios5

When the New Testament includes a quote or an allusion to the Old Testament it usually gives kurios where the Hebrew had YHWH Therefore of the 682 instances of kurios in the New Testament some 160 or 23 are either direct quotations of or allusions to the name YHWH Another 13 instances (2) use kurios as a title clearly referring to God the Father but are not quotes or allusions to YHWH in Hebrew

More common (and sometimes overlapping with the first category) is the use of kurios as a title for Jesus The meaning of this title can vary broadly from simply a polite term of address for a male stranger (John 411) to a term of address for a teacher or rabbi (John 1313) to a clear Messianic reference (Matthew 2245) and even a claim of universal lordship over all creation (Acts 1036) These total some 318 or 47 of the NT uses of kurios Inaddition four instances of kurios in 2 Corinthians 3 refer to the Holy Spirit

Because kurios can be used for YHWH for Jesus for the Father or the Spirit (and for more than one of these at the same time) many instances of kurios can only be said to refer to God in general but without any specificity as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is in mind These amount to some 181 instances or 27 of the total Finally 56 instances (8) are to other characters all but two being characters in parables or other teachings who represent the Father or Jesus

4 The Christological role of kuriosThe use of kurios for both YHWH and Jesus leads to kurios being a key term that the New Testament authors use to develop their high Christology This is done both directly in examples where YHWH quotes are applied directly to Jesus as well as indirectly through the repeated use of the same key term to refer to both YHWH and Jesus as well as the frequent use of kurios in situations where either the Father or the Son could easily be understood

Table 1 below gives examples of passages where YHWH quotes or strong allusions are applied directly to Jesus

Key verses RSV Notes

Acts 759 ldquoLord Jesus receive my spiritrdquo Stephen quoting Psalm 315 which originally appliesto YHWH

Romans 109 11-13 16

⁹if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raisedhim from the dead you will be savedsup1sup1The scripture says ldquoNo one who believes in him will be put to shamerdquo sup1sup2For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek the same Lord is Lord of all and bestows his riches uponall who call upon him sup1sup3For ldquoevery one who calls upon the name of the Lord will be savedrdquosup1⁶But they have not all obeyed the gospel for Isaiah says ldquoLord who has believed what he has heard from usrdquo

Verse 11 quotes Isaiah 2816 Verse 16 quotes Isaiah531 which has YHWH in Hebrew Verse 13 quotes Joel 232 (see also Acts 221) which has YHWH but Paul applies it to Jesus in verse 9 Also note that the phrase ldquocall upon the name of the Lordrdquo is a common OT motif that always refers to YHWH but here as well as other places in the NT the phrase and related variations are applied to Jesus (see Acts 91421 2216 1 Corinthians 12)

1 Corinthians86

yet for us there is one God the Father from whom are all things and for whom we exist and one Lord Jesus Christ through whom areall things and through whom we exist

Many theologians argue that Paul here is expanding the Shema (Deuteronomy 64) ldquoYHWH our God YHWH is onerdquo6 Here Paul applies ldquoone Lordrdquo (heis kurios cf Hebrew YHWH echad) to Jesus but also includes God the Father in his formulation Paulrsquos analysis would have been striking to his Jewish contemporaries yet understanding his argument requires consistent use of kurios for both YHWH andJesus the LordRabbiMaster

1 Corinthians1021-22 26

sup2sup1You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons You cannot partake of thetable of the Lord and the table of demons sup2sup2Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy Are we stronger than hesup2⁶For ldquothe earth is the Lordrsquos and everything in itrdquo

The context of this chapter is strongly Old Testament in character with kurios evoking YHWH (for example v 26 quotes Psalm 24ː1 where kurios is YHWH) At the same time the ldquocuprdquo and ldquotablerdquo of the Lord clearly refer to communion and Jesus (see v 16)

2 Corinthians316-18

see section 5 The Trinitarian role of kurios

Ephesians 4ː4-6

⁴There is one body and one Spirit just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call ⁵one Lord one faith one baptism ⁶one God and Father of us all who is above all and through all and in all

Here is arguably another example of an expansion ofthe Shema (Deuteronomy 6ː4) including the Father Jesus as the ldquoone Lordrdquo and the Spirit (see 1 Corinthians 86 above)

6 An admittedly hostile yet neverthless helpful compilation of these arguments is found in Splitting the Shema A lsquoHow Not Torsquo guide 23 March 2009 httpinthenameofwhowhatblogspotcom200903splitting-shema-how-not-to-guidehtml

Key verses RSV Notes

Philippians 29-11

⁹Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name sup1⁰that at the name of Jesus everyknee should bow in heaven and on earth andunder the earth sup1sup1and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father

Paul is quoting Isaiah 4523 in which YHWH is speaking but he applies it to Jesus here This is reinforced even more by the phrase ldquoname which is above every namerdquo which in Paulrsquos Jewish context could only have been the name YHWH7 Paul also quotes Isaiah 4523 in Romans 14ː11 and applies it to God (the Father) In other words Paul takes the Hebrew YHWH in Isaiah 4523 translates it kurios and applies it to both God the Father and Jesus in two separate places This is an excellent example of the theological role of kurios in the NT as a link between the Father and the Son

Hebrews 110

ldquoThou Lord didst found the earth in the beginning and the heavens are the work of thy handsrdquo

Ps 10225 refers to YHWH (actual word kurie is in LXX) the author applies this to Jesus

1 Peter 23 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good (ESV)

This verse quotes Psalm 348 ldquoTaste and see that YHWH is goodrdquo but Peter applies this to Jesus (see following verse clearly Jesus starting with ldquohimrdquo)

1 Peter 312 14-15

sup1sup2For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are open to their prayer But the face of the Lord is against those who do evilrdquosup1⁴ldquoDo not fear what they fear nor be in dreadrdquo sup1⁵but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord

Verses 14-15 are adapted from Isaiah 812-13 whichhas YHWH tsəvarsquoot but Peter applies it to Christ here Peterrsquos quote in verse 12 of Psalm 3415 strengthens the association here of kurios with YHWH

Jude 4-5 ⁴For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation ungodly people who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord Jesus Christ ⁵Now Iwant to remind you although you once fully knew it that JesusLord who saved a people out of the land of Egypt afterward destroyed those who did not believe

There is a significant textual variation in verse 5 between ldquoJesusrdquo and ldquoLordrdquo Most modern scholars believe ldquoJesusrdquo is the most likely original reading Even if kurios were the original reading the referentof the verse would likely still be Jesus as YHWH since Jesus is referred to as ldquoour only kuriosrdquo just one verse before Whichever variant is chosen this text helps establish the high Christological thinking of Jude the Lordrsquos brother who knew both his humanity and divinity

Table 1 Verses where YHWH quotes or allusions are applied to Jesus

In addition many verses seem to play off the ambiguity of kurios as a referent to either YHWH or Jesus perhaps

7 See Norm Mundhenk (2010) ldquoJesus is Lord The Tetragrammaton in Bible Translationrdquo Bible Translator 61(2) p 60 Mundhenk states ldquoVerses 9-11 in Philippians then specifically refer to some of the most monotheistic passages in the Old Testament yet they say that God himself has given the Name (YHWH) to Jesus so that everyone on earth will bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (= YHWH)rdquo

intentionally by the authors as given in Table 2 below

Key verses RSV Notes

Mt 33 Mk 13 Lk 34

ldquoPrepare the way of the Lordrdquo

quoting YHWH from Isaiah 403 but subtly refers to Jesus as well

John 123 ldquoMake straight the wayof the Lordrdquo

Luke 128 ldquoThe Lord is with yourdquo the angel Gabriel to Mary referent is delightfully ambiguous

Luke 176 ldquoAnd you child will be called the prophet of the Most High for you will go before the Lord to prepare his waysrdquo

Zechariahrsquos prophecy here about his son John alludes to Malachi 31 in which YHWH says ldquoI send my messenger to prepare the way before merdquo He continues ldquoAnd the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight behold he is coming says YHWH of hostsrdquo Like the quotes of Isaiah 403 above this verse clearly refers to John preparing the way for YHWH but also subtly includes Jesus as the ldquoLordrdquo for whom John is preparing the way

1 Thessalonians 52

For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night

The phrase ldquoday of the Lordrdquo in the OT is always ldquoday of YHWHrdquo but here the reference is also clearly to the return of Jesus This same phrase applied to Jesus implicitly but clearly is found in 2 Peter 310 and2 Thessalonians 22 and with the reference to Jesus explicit in 1 Corinthians 55 and 2 Corinthians 114

Acts 928 [Saul was] ldquopreaching boldly in the name of the Lordrdquo

Like ldquoday of the Lordrdquo the phrase ldquoname of the Lordrdquo(ldquoname of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT Here and elsewhere in the NT the phrase is used ambiguously to refer to either God the Father or Jesus while elsewhere the phrase is also commonly used explicitly for people who speak or act ldquoin the name of the Lord Jesus ldquo(eg Colossians 317)

1 Thessalonians 415

For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord that we who are alive who are left until the coming of the Lordshall not precede thosewho have fallen asleep

Similarly the phrase ldquoword of the Lordrdquo (or ldquoword of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT and also used by the NT writers Is this ldquoLordrdquo YHWHor ldquoLordrdquo Jesus The answer is not given nor is it necessary to know because Jesus IS YHWH and Jesusrsquo word is YHWHrsquos word

Table 2 Verses where the divine referent of kurios is ambiguous

In addition to these particular verses as stated above fully 27 of the instances of kurios in the New Testament clearly refer to God but are ambiguous as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is intended This general ambiguity adds to the sense of ldquoLordrdquo as being a term that unifies the members of the Trinity

41 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo

One final instance serves to underline the theological importance of kurios as a term that deliberately links the YHWH and Adon(ai) meanings of the Tanach In four places (Matthew Mark Luke and Acts) the NT quotes the first part of Psalm 1101 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo Let us compare the Greek of Mt 2244 with the Hebrew of Psalm 1101

Εἶπεν [ὁ]8 Κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου

נאם יהוה לאדני

The Greek is an exact quote of the LXX for Psalm 1101 there is no distinction made between either instance of ldquoLordrdquo The Hebrew text is written nərsquoum YHWH ladoni but this is always vocalized as ldquoנאם אדני לאדניrdquo nərsquoum Adonai ladoni which is what is represented in the Greek text

The three instances in the gospels of these words come from when Jesus is teaching and asking the people who David is referring to as ldquomy Lordrdquo In Matthew 2243 Jesus says that ldquoDavid in the Spirit calls him lsquoLordrsquordquo This verse often confuses readers leading translators to want to ldquoclarifyrdquo the meaning by separating out the two instances of kurios justifying this choice by the fact that the underlying written Hebrew has two separate terms

However by doing so they completely miss Jesusrsquo line of argument The point of Jesusrsquo question is that David could not refer to the Messiah as lsquomy Lordrsquo unless the Messiah was greater than he And since there could be no mere human greater than Davidmdashthe anointed King of YHWH and ancestor of the entire Messianic line ancestors always being considered greater than their descendantsmdashthe implication is that the Messiah has to be divine andno mere ldquoson of Davidrdquo By using the exact same term to translate YHWH and adon ldquolordrdquo the God-breathed Greek text even subtly suggests that perhaps the Messiah is not just ldquodivinerdquo in some Arian sense but in fact IS the very kuriosmdashYHWHmdashreferred to in Psalm 1101 a truth that other New Testament passages make explicit Using two different terms obscures these key meanings and dampens the effect Jesusrsquo words would have had to the original readers and listeners

42 Kurios and the divinity and humanity of Christ

Viewed from the lens of translation theory the idea of substituting kurios for the Hebrew YHWH seems like a translation error While YHWH is the proper name of the one true God of Israel the Greek title kurios can apply toboth divine and human masters and could apply to pagan gods as well as YHWH Why would the Holy Spirit inspire such a substitution Indeed the doubt that kurios is indeed God-breathed as a rendering of the divine name has led to the Jehovahrsquos Witnessesrsquo New World Translation which uses ldquoJehovahrdquo wherever they see an OldTestament reference to YHWH A similar approach is seen in some ldquoSacred Namerdquo translations9

But for those of us who accept that the Greek New Testament is indeed God-breathed including the choice of kurios to represent both the Hebrew YHWH and Adon it is possible to see a fascinating phenomenon at work Thedivine name is found throughout the Tanach But at the moment of history when the one whose Name is above allnames became flesh the divine Name is suddenly missing from what the Holy Spirit inspires and in its place is a word kurios which especially for the Jews of Jesusrsquo time included the meanings of both the divine Name as well as either human or divine lordship This wide range of possible meaning and referents allowed the same term to seamlessly apply to One who is both human and divine or as Paul so beautifully writes

Make your own attitude that of Christ Jesus

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

4) When translating kurios therefore great care must be taken to preserve these essential theological roles

2 The Hebrew terms YHWH and Adon(ai)Our discussion of the theological role of kurios must begin with the two key Hebrew terms that are both rendered as kurios in the New Testament namely YHWH and Adon(ai)

also known as the ldquoTetragrammatonrdquo is Godrsquos self-revealed name In the Tanach YHWH always (YHWH) יהוהand only refers to the one true God the faithful God of Israel who leads His people out of Egypt continues to accomplish His purposes despite all their disobedience and promises restoration and the coming of the Messiah YHWH alone created the heavens and the earth (Isaiah 4424) and no other god exists except Him (Isaiah 446-8) YHWH is Godrsquos name not a title or a category (Isaiah 428 Exodus 315) As a name it is not declined or specified (eg ldquomy YHWHrdquo or ldquothe YHWH of Israelrdquo) as titles like Adon or Elohim can be2 Like most biblical names the nameof YHWH has meaningmdashthe story of God revealing His name to Moses in Exodus 3 suggests that it is a third person imperfect form of היה hayah ldquoto berdquo3 In other words the meaning of YHWH is probably ldquoHE ISrdquo or ldquoHE WILL BErdquo But it is used in Scripture first and foremost as a name not a word

In contrast אדון Adon means ldquolordrdquo or ldquomasterrdquo It is a title not a name While YHWH is our Adon He is not the only one with this title in the Scripturesmdashthe title Adon can refer to either YHWH (Psalm 975) or to human lords (Psalm 10521 1 Samuel 248) Sometimes the terms YHWH and Adon come together such as in Genesis 152 where Abram calls God ldquoאדני יהוהrdquo (Adonai YHWH or ldquoLord YHWHrdquo) where Adonai (related to Adon) is a title put before the name YHWH

We see the difference between the name YHWH and the title Adon clearly in Psalm 1101 where the Hebrew begins

נאם יהוה לאדני

nəmiddotrsquoum YHWH lamiddotḏōmiddotnicirc

Here David writes that YHWH is speaking to ldquomy Lordrdquo The speaker is clearly YHWH whereas it is not clear from this verse alone whom the title Adon refers to here since David does not say who ldquohis Lordrdquo is if not YHWH Jesus of course taught that the Adon in this verse is the Messiah namely Himself (Mt 2243-45 Mk 1236-37 Lk 2042-44)

In summary while YHWH is our Adon others can also be called Adon whereas YHWH is Godrsquos name and can only refer to the one true God

3 Brief survey of the usage of kurios in the New TestamentThe Greek word κύριος kurios ldquoLordrdquo is a translation of Adon(ai) While biblical prophets such as David Moses and Isaiah pronounced the name of YHWH freely at some point after the exile Jews began to fear speaking the name of YHWH concerned that they would somehow break Godrsquos commandment not to take His name in vain (Exodus 207) Instead they substituted the title Adonai for the name YHWH when speaking Many early manuscripts of the Old Testament translated into Greek contain the name YHWH in various formsmdashtransliterated into Greek as Ιαω visually imitating the Hebrew יהוה by writing the Greek letters ΠΙΠΙ or kept in Hebrew (יהוה) oreven Paleo-Hebrew script (678446784567844)4 At some point either Jewish or Christian scribes instead of using Hebrew or

2 One common form may perhaps be a specification of YHWH namely YHWH Tsevarsquoot or ldquoYHWH of hostsrdquo but this does not imply that YHWH in this instance is a title or a class noun

3 More precisely it seems to be derived from the archaic form for היה namely הוה 4 Bruce M Metzger (1981) Manuscripts of the Greek Bible An Introduction to Palaeography Oxford University Press 33ndash

Greek transliterated forms of YHWH began translating the spoken form Adonai into Greek as Kurios5

When the New Testament includes a quote or an allusion to the Old Testament it usually gives kurios where the Hebrew had YHWH Therefore of the 682 instances of kurios in the New Testament some 160 or 23 are either direct quotations of or allusions to the name YHWH Another 13 instances (2) use kurios as a title clearly referring to God the Father but are not quotes or allusions to YHWH in Hebrew

More common (and sometimes overlapping with the first category) is the use of kurios as a title for Jesus The meaning of this title can vary broadly from simply a polite term of address for a male stranger (John 411) to a term of address for a teacher or rabbi (John 1313) to a clear Messianic reference (Matthew 2245) and even a claim of universal lordship over all creation (Acts 1036) These total some 318 or 47 of the NT uses of kurios Inaddition four instances of kurios in 2 Corinthians 3 refer to the Holy Spirit

Because kurios can be used for YHWH for Jesus for the Father or the Spirit (and for more than one of these at the same time) many instances of kurios can only be said to refer to God in general but without any specificity as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is in mind These amount to some 181 instances or 27 of the total Finally 56 instances (8) are to other characters all but two being characters in parables or other teachings who represent the Father or Jesus

4 The Christological role of kuriosThe use of kurios for both YHWH and Jesus leads to kurios being a key term that the New Testament authors use to develop their high Christology This is done both directly in examples where YHWH quotes are applied directly to Jesus as well as indirectly through the repeated use of the same key term to refer to both YHWH and Jesus as well as the frequent use of kurios in situations where either the Father or the Son could easily be understood

Table 1 below gives examples of passages where YHWH quotes or strong allusions are applied directly to Jesus

1 Corinthians86

yet for us there is one God the Father from whom are all things and for whom we exist and one Lord Jesus Christ through whom areall things and through whom we exist

Many theologians argue that Paul here is expanding the Shema (Deuteronomy 64) ldquoYHWH our God YHWH is onerdquo6 Here Paul applies ldquoone Lordrdquo (heis kurios cf Hebrew YHWH echad) to Jesus but also includes God the Father in his formulation Paulrsquos analysis would have been striking to his Jewish contemporaries yet understanding his argument requires consistent use of kurios for both YHWH andJesus the LordRabbiMaster

The context of this chapter is strongly Old Testament in character with kurios evoking YHWH (for example v 26 quotes Psalm 24ː1 where kurios is YHWH) At the same time the ldquocuprdquo and ldquotablerdquo of the Lord clearly refer to communion and Jesus (see v 16)

⁹Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name sup1⁰that at the name of Jesus everyknee should bow in heaven and on earth andunder the earth sup1sup1and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father

Paul is quoting Isaiah 4523 in which YHWH is speaking but he applies it to Jesus here This is reinforced even more by the phrase ldquoname which is above every namerdquo which in Paulrsquos Jewish context could only have been the name YHWH7 Paul also quotes Isaiah 4523 in Romans 14ː11 and applies it to God (the Father) In other words Paul takes the Hebrew YHWH in Isaiah 4523 translates it kurios and applies it to both God the Father and Jesus in two separate places This is an excellent example of the theological role of kurios in the NT as a link between the Father and the Son

Hebrews 110

ldquoThou Lord didst found the earth in the beginning and the heavens are the work of thy handsrdquo

Ps 10225 refers to YHWH (actual word kurie is in LXX) the author applies this to Jesus

1 Peter 23 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good (ESV)

This verse quotes Psalm 348 ldquoTaste and see that YHWH is goodrdquo but Peter applies this to Jesus (see following verse clearly Jesus starting with ldquohimrdquo)

There is a significant textual variation in verse 5 between ldquoJesusrdquo and ldquoLordrdquo Most modern scholars believe ldquoJesusrdquo is the most likely original reading Even if kurios were the original reading the referentof the verse would likely still be Jesus as YHWH since Jesus is referred to as ldquoour only kuriosrdquo just one verse before Whichever variant is chosen this text helps establish the high Christological thinking of Jude the Lordrsquos brother who knew both his humanity and divinity

Table 1 Verses where YHWH quotes or allusions are applied to Jesus

In addition many verses seem to play off the ambiguity of kurios as a referent to either YHWH or Jesus perhaps

7 See Norm Mundhenk (2010) ldquoJesus is Lord The Tetragrammaton in Bible Translationrdquo Bible Translator 61(2) p 60 Mundhenk states ldquoVerses 9-11 in Philippians then specifically refer to some of the most monotheistic passages in the Old Testament yet they say that God himself has given the Name (YHWH) to Jesus so that everyone on earth will bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (= YHWH)rdquo

intentionally by the authors as given in Table 2 below

Key verses RSV Notes

Mt 33 Mk 13 Lk 34

ldquoPrepare the way of the Lordrdquo

quoting YHWH from Isaiah 403 but subtly refers to Jesus as well

John 123 ldquoMake straight the wayof the Lordrdquo

Luke 128 ldquoThe Lord is with yourdquo the angel Gabriel to Mary referent is delightfully ambiguous

Luke 176 ldquoAnd you child will be called the prophet of the Most High for you will go before the Lord to prepare his waysrdquo

Zechariahrsquos prophecy here about his son John alludes to Malachi 31 in which YHWH says ldquoI send my messenger to prepare the way before merdquo He continues ldquoAnd the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight behold he is coming says YHWH of hostsrdquo Like the quotes of Isaiah 403 above this verse clearly refers to John preparing the way for YHWH but also subtly includes Jesus as the ldquoLordrdquo for whom John is preparing the way

1 Thessalonians 52

For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night

The phrase ldquoday of the Lordrdquo in the OT is always ldquoday of YHWHrdquo but here the reference is also clearly to the return of Jesus This same phrase applied to Jesus implicitly but clearly is found in 2 Peter 310 and2 Thessalonians 22 and with the reference to Jesus explicit in 1 Corinthians 55 and 2 Corinthians 114

Acts 928 [Saul was] ldquopreaching boldly in the name of the Lordrdquo

Like ldquoday of the Lordrdquo the phrase ldquoname of the Lordrdquo(ldquoname of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT Here and elsewhere in the NT the phrase is used ambiguously to refer to either God the Father or Jesus while elsewhere the phrase is also commonly used explicitly for people who speak or act ldquoin the name of the Lord Jesus ldquo(eg Colossians 317)

1 Thessalonians 415

For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord that we who are alive who are left until the coming of the Lordshall not precede thosewho have fallen asleep

Similarly the phrase ldquoword of the Lordrdquo (or ldquoword of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT and also used by the NT writers Is this ldquoLordrdquo YHWHor ldquoLordrdquo Jesus The answer is not given nor is it necessary to know because Jesus IS YHWH and Jesusrsquo word is YHWHrsquos word

Table 2 Verses where the divine referent of kurios is ambiguous

In addition to these particular verses as stated above fully 27 of the instances of kurios in the New Testament clearly refer to God but are ambiguous as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is intended This general ambiguity adds to the sense of ldquoLordrdquo as being a term that unifies the members of the Trinity

41 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo

One final instance serves to underline the theological importance of kurios as a term that deliberately links the YHWH and Adon(ai) meanings of the Tanach In four places (Matthew Mark Luke and Acts) the NT quotes the first part of Psalm 1101 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo Let us compare the Greek of Mt 2244 with the Hebrew of Psalm 1101

Εἶπεν [ὁ]8 Κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου

נאם יהוה לאדני

The Greek is an exact quote of the LXX for Psalm 1101 there is no distinction made between either instance of ldquoLordrdquo The Hebrew text is written nərsquoum YHWH ladoni but this is always vocalized as ldquoנאם אדני לאדניrdquo nərsquoum Adonai ladoni which is what is represented in the Greek text

The three instances in the gospels of these words come from when Jesus is teaching and asking the people who David is referring to as ldquomy Lordrdquo In Matthew 2243 Jesus says that ldquoDavid in the Spirit calls him lsquoLordrsquordquo This verse often confuses readers leading translators to want to ldquoclarifyrdquo the meaning by separating out the two instances of kurios justifying this choice by the fact that the underlying written Hebrew has two separate terms

However by doing so they completely miss Jesusrsquo line of argument The point of Jesusrsquo question is that David could not refer to the Messiah as lsquomy Lordrsquo unless the Messiah was greater than he And since there could be no mere human greater than Davidmdashthe anointed King of YHWH and ancestor of the entire Messianic line ancestors always being considered greater than their descendantsmdashthe implication is that the Messiah has to be divine andno mere ldquoson of Davidrdquo By using the exact same term to translate YHWH and adon ldquolordrdquo the God-breathed Greek text even subtly suggests that perhaps the Messiah is not just ldquodivinerdquo in some Arian sense but in fact IS the very kuriosmdashYHWHmdashreferred to in Psalm 1101 a truth that other New Testament passages make explicit Using two different terms obscures these key meanings and dampens the effect Jesusrsquo words would have had to the original readers and listeners

42 Kurios and the divinity and humanity of Christ

Viewed from the lens of translation theory the idea of substituting kurios for the Hebrew YHWH seems like a translation error While YHWH is the proper name of the one true God of Israel the Greek title kurios can apply toboth divine and human masters and could apply to pagan gods as well as YHWH Why would the Holy Spirit inspire such a substitution Indeed the doubt that kurios is indeed God-breathed as a rendering of the divine name has led to the Jehovahrsquos Witnessesrsquo New World Translation which uses ldquoJehovahrdquo wherever they see an OldTestament reference to YHWH A similar approach is seen in some ldquoSacred Namerdquo translations9

But for those of us who accept that the Greek New Testament is indeed God-breathed including the choice of kurios to represent both the Hebrew YHWH and Adon it is possible to see a fascinating phenomenon at work Thedivine name is found throughout the Tanach But at the moment of history when the one whose Name is above allnames became flesh the divine Name is suddenly missing from what the Holy Spirit inspires and in its place is a word kurios which especially for the Jews of Jesusrsquo time included the meanings of both the divine Name as well as either human or divine lordship This wide range of possible meaning and referents allowed the same term to seamlessly apply to One who is both human and divine or as Paul so beautifully writes

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

When the New Testament includes a quote or an allusion to the Old Testament it usually gives kurios where the Hebrew had YHWH Therefore of the 682 instances of kurios in the New Testament some 160 or 23 are either direct quotations of or allusions to the name YHWH Another 13 instances (2) use kurios as a title clearly referring to God the Father but are not quotes or allusions to YHWH in Hebrew

More common (and sometimes overlapping with the first category) is the use of kurios as a title for Jesus The meaning of this title can vary broadly from simply a polite term of address for a male stranger (John 411) to a term of address for a teacher or rabbi (John 1313) to a clear Messianic reference (Matthew 2245) and even a claim of universal lordship over all creation (Acts 1036) These total some 318 or 47 of the NT uses of kurios Inaddition four instances of kurios in 2 Corinthians 3 refer to the Holy Spirit

Because kurios can be used for YHWH for Jesus for the Father or the Spirit (and for more than one of these at the same time) many instances of kurios can only be said to refer to God in general but without any specificity as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is in mind These amount to some 181 instances or 27 of the total Finally 56 instances (8) are to other characters all but two being characters in parables or other teachings who represent the Father or Jesus

4 The Christological role of kuriosThe use of kurios for both YHWH and Jesus leads to kurios being a key term that the New Testament authors use to develop their high Christology This is done both directly in examples where YHWH quotes are applied directly to Jesus as well as indirectly through the repeated use of the same key term to refer to both YHWH and Jesus as well as the frequent use of kurios in situations where either the Father or the Son could easily be understood

Table 1 below gives examples of passages where YHWH quotes or strong allusions are applied directly to Jesus

1 Corinthians86

yet for us there is one God the Father from whom are all things and for whom we exist and one Lord Jesus Christ through whom areall things and through whom we exist

Many theologians argue that Paul here is expanding the Shema (Deuteronomy 64) ldquoYHWH our God YHWH is onerdquo6 Here Paul applies ldquoone Lordrdquo (heis kurios cf Hebrew YHWH echad) to Jesus but also includes God the Father in his formulation Paulrsquos analysis would have been striking to his Jewish contemporaries yet understanding his argument requires consistent use of kurios for both YHWH andJesus the LordRabbiMaster

The context of this chapter is strongly Old Testament in character with kurios evoking YHWH (for example v 26 quotes Psalm 24ː1 where kurios is YHWH) At the same time the ldquocuprdquo and ldquotablerdquo of the Lord clearly refer to communion and Jesus (see v 16)

Paul is quoting Isaiah 4523 in which YHWH is speaking but he applies it to Jesus here This is reinforced even more by the phrase ldquoname which is above every namerdquo which in Paulrsquos Jewish context could only have been the name YHWH7 Paul also quotes Isaiah 4523 in Romans 14ː11 and applies it to God (the Father) In other words Paul takes the Hebrew YHWH in Isaiah 4523 translates it kurios and applies it to both God the Father and Jesus in two separate places This is an excellent example of the theological role of kurios in the NT as a link between the Father and the Son

Hebrews 110

ldquoThou Lord didst found the earth in the beginning and the heavens are the work of thy handsrdquo

Ps 10225 refers to YHWH (actual word kurie is in LXX) the author applies this to Jesus

1 Peter 23 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good (ESV)

This verse quotes Psalm 348 ldquoTaste and see that YHWH is goodrdquo but Peter applies this to Jesus (see following verse clearly Jesus starting with ldquohimrdquo)

Verses 14-15 are adapted from Isaiah 812-13 whichhas YHWH tsəvarsquoot but Peter applies it to Christ here Peterrsquos quote in verse 12 of Psalm 3415 strengthens the association here of kurios with YHWH

There is a significant textual variation in verse 5 between ldquoJesusrdquo and ldquoLordrdquo Most modern scholars believe ldquoJesusrdquo is the most likely original reading Even if kurios were the original reading the referentof the verse would likely still be Jesus as YHWH since Jesus is referred to as ldquoour only kuriosrdquo just one verse before Whichever variant is chosen this text helps establish the high Christological thinking of Jude the Lordrsquos brother who knew both his humanity and divinity

Table 1 Verses where YHWH quotes or allusions are applied to Jesus

In addition many verses seem to play off the ambiguity of kurios as a referent to either YHWH or Jesus perhaps

7 See Norm Mundhenk (2010) ldquoJesus is Lord The Tetragrammaton in Bible Translationrdquo Bible Translator 61(2) p 60 Mundhenk states ldquoVerses 9-11 in Philippians then specifically refer to some of the most monotheistic passages in the Old Testament yet they say that God himself has given the Name (YHWH) to Jesus so that everyone on earth will bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (= YHWH)rdquo

Key verses RSV Notes

Mt 33 Mk 13 Lk 34

ldquoPrepare the way of the Lordrdquo

quoting YHWH from Isaiah 403 but subtly refers to Jesus as well

John 123 ldquoMake straight the wayof the Lordrdquo

Luke 128 ldquoThe Lord is with yourdquo the angel Gabriel to Mary referent is delightfully ambiguous

Luke 176 ldquoAnd you child will be called the prophet of the Most High for you will go before the Lord to prepare his waysrdquo

Zechariahrsquos prophecy here about his son John alludes to Malachi 31 in which YHWH says ldquoI send my messenger to prepare the way before merdquo He continues ldquoAnd the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight behold he is coming says YHWH of hostsrdquo Like the quotes of Isaiah 403 above this verse clearly refers to John preparing the way for YHWH but also subtly includes Jesus as the ldquoLordrdquo for whom John is preparing the way

1 Thessalonians 52

For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night

The phrase ldquoday of the Lordrdquo in the OT is always ldquoday of YHWHrdquo but here the reference is also clearly to the return of Jesus This same phrase applied to Jesus implicitly but clearly is found in 2 Peter 310 and2 Thessalonians 22 and with the reference to Jesus explicit in 1 Corinthians 55 and 2 Corinthians 114

Acts 928 [Saul was] ldquopreaching boldly in the name of the Lordrdquo

Like ldquoday of the Lordrdquo the phrase ldquoname of the Lordrdquo(ldquoname of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT Here and elsewhere in the NT the phrase is used ambiguously to refer to either God the Father or Jesus while elsewhere the phrase is also commonly used explicitly for people who speak or act ldquoin the name of the Lord Jesus ldquo(eg Colossians 317)

1 Thessalonians 415

For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord that we who are alive who are left until the coming of the Lordshall not precede thosewho have fallen asleep

Similarly the phrase ldquoword of the Lordrdquo (or ldquoword of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT and also used by the NT writers Is this ldquoLordrdquo YHWHor ldquoLordrdquo Jesus The answer is not given nor is it necessary to know because Jesus IS YHWH and Jesusrsquo word is YHWHrsquos word

Table 2 Verses where the divine referent of kurios is ambiguous

In addition to these particular verses as stated above fully 27 of the instances of kurios in the New Testament clearly refer to God but are ambiguous as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is intended This general ambiguity adds to the sense of ldquoLordrdquo as being a term that unifies the members of the Trinity

41 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo

One final instance serves to underline the theological importance of kurios as a term that deliberately links the YHWH and Adon(ai) meanings of the Tanach In four places (Matthew Mark Luke and Acts) the NT quotes the first part of Psalm 1101 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo Let us compare the Greek of Mt 2244 with the Hebrew of Psalm 1101

Εἶπεν [ὁ]8 Κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου

נאם יהוה לאדני

The Greek is an exact quote of the LXX for Psalm 1101 there is no distinction made between either instance of ldquoLordrdquo The Hebrew text is written nərsquoum YHWH ladoni but this is always vocalized as ldquoנאם אדני לאדניrdquo nərsquoum Adonai ladoni which is what is represented in the Greek text

The three instances in the gospels of these words come from when Jesus is teaching and asking the people who David is referring to as ldquomy Lordrdquo In Matthew 2243 Jesus says that ldquoDavid in the Spirit calls him lsquoLordrsquordquo This verse often confuses readers leading translators to want to ldquoclarifyrdquo the meaning by separating out the two instances of kurios justifying this choice by the fact that the underlying written Hebrew has two separate terms

However by doing so they completely miss Jesusrsquo line of argument The point of Jesusrsquo question is that David could not refer to the Messiah as lsquomy Lordrsquo unless the Messiah was greater than he And since there could be no mere human greater than Davidmdashthe anointed King of YHWH and ancestor of the entire Messianic line ancestors always being considered greater than their descendantsmdashthe implication is that the Messiah has to be divine andno mere ldquoson of Davidrdquo By using the exact same term to translate YHWH and adon ldquolordrdquo the God-breathed Greek text even subtly suggests that perhaps the Messiah is not just ldquodivinerdquo in some Arian sense but in fact IS the very kuriosmdashYHWHmdashreferred to in Psalm 1101 a truth that other New Testament passages make explicit Using two different terms obscures these key meanings and dampens the effect Jesusrsquo words would have had to the original readers and listeners

42 Kurios and the divinity and humanity of Christ

Viewed from the lens of translation theory the idea of substituting kurios for the Hebrew YHWH seems like a translation error While YHWH is the proper name of the one true God of Israel the Greek title kurios can apply toboth divine and human masters and could apply to pagan gods as well as YHWH Why would the Holy Spirit inspire such a substitution Indeed the doubt that kurios is indeed God-breathed as a rendering of the divine name has led to the Jehovahrsquos Witnessesrsquo New World Translation which uses ldquoJehovahrdquo wherever they see an OldTestament reference to YHWH A similar approach is seen in some ldquoSacred Namerdquo translations9

But for those of us who accept that the Greek New Testament is indeed God-breathed including the choice of kurios to represent both the Hebrew YHWH and Adon it is possible to see a fascinating phenomenon at work Thedivine name is found throughout the Tanach But at the moment of history when the one whose Name is above allnames became flesh the divine Name is suddenly missing from what the Holy Spirit inspires and in its place is a word kurios which especially for the Jews of Jesusrsquo time included the meanings of both the divine Name as well as either human or divine lordship This wide range of possible meaning and referents allowed the same term to seamlessly apply to One who is both human and divine or as Paul so beautifully writes

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Key verses RSV Notes

Acts 759 ldquoLord Jesus receive my spiritrdquo Stephen quoting Psalm 315 which originally appliesto YHWH

Romans 109 11-13 16

⁹if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raisedhim from the dead you will be savedsup1sup1The scripture says ldquoNo one who believes in him will be put to shamerdquo sup1sup2For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek the same Lord is Lord of all and bestows his riches uponall who call upon him sup1sup3For ldquoevery one who calls upon the name of the Lord will be savedrdquosup1⁶But they have not all obeyed the gospel for Isaiah says ldquoLord who has believed what he has heard from usrdquo

Verse 11 quotes Isaiah 2816 Verse 16 quotes Isaiah531 which has YHWH in Hebrew Verse 13 quotes Joel 232 (see also Acts 221) which has YHWH but Paul applies it to Jesus in verse 9 Also note that the phrase ldquocall upon the name of the Lordrdquo is a common OT motif that always refers to YHWH but here as well as other places in the NT the phrase and related variations are applied to Jesus (see Acts 91421 2216 1 Corinthians 12)

1 Corinthians86

yet for us there is one God the Father from whom are all things and for whom we exist and one Lord Jesus Christ through whom areall things and through whom we exist

Many theologians argue that Paul here is expanding the Shema (Deuteronomy 64) ldquoYHWH our God YHWH is onerdquo6 Here Paul applies ldquoone Lordrdquo (heis kurios cf Hebrew YHWH echad) to Jesus but also includes God the Father in his formulation Paulrsquos analysis would have been striking to his Jewish contemporaries yet understanding his argument requires consistent use of kurios for both YHWH andJesus the LordRabbiMaster

1 Corinthians1021-22 26

sup2sup1You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons You cannot partake of thetable of the Lord and the table of demons sup2sup2Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy Are we stronger than hesup2⁶For ldquothe earth is the Lordrsquos and everything in itrdquo

The context of this chapter is strongly Old Testament in character with kurios evoking YHWH (for example v 26 quotes Psalm 24ː1 where kurios is YHWH) At the same time the ldquocuprdquo and ldquotablerdquo of the Lord clearly refer to communion and Jesus (see v 16)

2 Corinthians316-18

see section 5 The Trinitarian role of kurios

Ephesians 4ː4-6

⁴There is one body and one Spirit just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call ⁵one Lord one faith one baptism ⁶one God and Father of us all who is above all and through all and in all

Here is arguably another example of an expansion ofthe Shema (Deuteronomy 6ː4) including the Father Jesus as the ldquoone Lordrdquo and the Spirit (see 1 Corinthians 86 above)

6 An admittedly hostile yet neverthless helpful compilation of these arguments is found in Splitting the Shema A lsquoHow Not Torsquo guide 23 March 2009 httpinthenameofwhowhatblogspotcom200903splitting-shema-how-not-to-guidehtml

Key verses RSV Notes

Philippians 29-11

⁹Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name sup1⁰that at the name of Jesus everyknee should bow in heaven and on earth andunder the earth sup1sup1and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father

Paul is quoting Isaiah 4523 in which YHWH is speaking but he applies it to Jesus here This is reinforced even more by the phrase ldquoname which is above every namerdquo which in Paulrsquos Jewish context could only have been the name YHWH7 Paul also quotes Isaiah 4523 in Romans 14ː11 and applies it to God (the Father) In other words Paul takes the Hebrew YHWH in Isaiah 4523 translates it kurios and applies it to both God the Father and Jesus in two separate places This is an excellent example of the theological role of kurios in the NT as a link between the Father and the Son

Hebrews 110

ldquoThou Lord didst found the earth in the beginning and the heavens are the work of thy handsrdquo

Ps 10225 refers to YHWH (actual word kurie is in LXX) the author applies this to Jesus

1 Peter 23 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good (ESV)

This verse quotes Psalm 348 ldquoTaste and see that YHWH is goodrdquo but Peter applies this to Jesus (see following verse clearly Jesus starting with ldquohimrdquo)

1 Peter 312 14-15

sup1sup2For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are open to their prayer But the face of the Lord is against those who do evilrdquosup1⁴ldquoDo not fear what they fear nor be in dreadrdquo sup1⁵but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord

Verses 14-15 are adapted from Isaiah 812-13 whichhas YHWH tsəvarsquoot but Peter applies it to Christ here Peterrsquos quote in verse 12 of Psalm 3415 strengthens the association here of kurios with YHWH

There is a significant textual variation in verse 5 between ldquoJesusrdquo and ldquoLordrdquo Most modern scholars believe ldquoJesusrdquo is the most likely original reading Even if kurios were the original reading the referentof the verse would likely still be Jesus as YHWH since Jesus is referred to as ldquoour only kuriosrdquo just one verse before Whichever variant is chosen this text helps establish the high Christological thinking of Jude the Lordrsquos brother who knew both his humanity and divinity

Table 1 Verses where YHWH quotes or allusions are applied to Jesus

In addition many verses seem to play off the ambiguity of kurios as a referent to either YHWH or Jesus perhaps

Key verses RSV Notes

Mt 33 Mk 13 Lk 34

quoting YHWH from Isaiah 403 but subtly refers to Jesus as well

John 123 ldquoMake straight the wayof the Lordrdquo

Luke 128 ldquoThe Lord is with yourdquo the angel Gabriel to Mary referent is delightfully ambiguous

Luke 176 ldquoAnd you child will be called the prophet of the Most High for you will go before the Lord to prepare his waysrdquo

Zechariahrsquos prophecy here about his son John alludes to Malachi 31 in which YHWH says ldquoI send my messenger to prepare the way before merdquo He continues ldquoAnd the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight behold he is coming says YHWH of hostsrdquo Like the quotes of Isaiah 403 above this verse clearly refers to John preparing the way for YHWH but also subtly includes Jesus as the ldquoLordrdquo for whom John is preparing the way

1 Thessalonians 52

For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night

The phrase ldquoday of the Lordrdquo in the OT is always ldquoday of YHWHrdquo but here the reference is also clearly to the return of Jesus This same phrase applied to Jesus implicitly but clearly is found in 2 Peter 310 and2 Thessalonians 22 and with the reference to Jesus explicit in 1 Corinthians 55 and 2 Corinthians 114

Acts 928 [Saul was] ldquopreaching boldly in the name of the Lordrdquo

Like ldquoday of the Lordrdquo the phrase ldquoname of the Lordrdquo(ldquoname of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT Here and elsewhere in the NT the phrase is used ambiguously to refer to either God the Father or Jesus while elsewhere the phrase is also commonly used explicitly for people who speak or act ldquoin the name of the Lord Jesus ldquo(eg Colossians 317)

1 Thessalonians 415

For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord that we who are alive who are left until the coming of the Lordshall not precede thosewho have fallen asleep

Similarly the phrase ldquoword of the Lordrdquo (or ldquoword of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT and also used by the NT writers Is this ldquoLordrdquo YHWHor ldquoLordrdquo Jesus The answer is not given nor is it necessary to know because Jesus IS YHWH and Jesusrsquo word is YHWHrsquos word

Table 2 Verses where the divine referent of kurios is ambiguous

In addition to these particular verses as stated above fully 27 of the instances of kurios in the New Testament clearly refer to God but are ambiguous as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is intended This general ambiguity adds to the sense of ldquoLordrdquo as being a term that unifies the members of the Trinity

41 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo

One final instance serves to underline the theological importance of kurios as a term that deliberately links the YHWH and Adon(ai) meanings of the Tanach In four places (Matthew Mark Luke and Acts) the NT quotes the first part of Psalm 1101 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo Let us compare the Greek of Mt 2244 with the Hebrew of Psalm 1101

Εἶπεν [ὁ]8 Κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου

נאם יהוה לאדני

The Greek is an exact quote of the LXX for Psalm 1101 there is no distinction made between either instance of ldquoLordrdquo The Hebrew text is written nərsquoum YHWH ladoni but this is always vocalized as ldquoנאם אדני לאדניrdquo nərsquoum Adonai ladoni which is what is represented in the Greek text

The three instances in the gospels of these words come from when Jesus is teaching and asking the people who David is referring to as ldquomy Lordrdquo In Matthew 2243 Jesus says that ldquoDavid in the Spirit calls him lsquoLordrsquordquo This verse often confuses readers leading translators to want to ldquoclarifyrdquo the meaning by separating out the two instances of kurios justifying this choice by the fact that the underlying written Hebrew has two separate terms

However by doing so they completely miss Jesusrsquo line of argument The point of Jesusrsquo question is that David could not refer to the Messiah as lsquomy Lordrsquo unless the Messiah was greater than he And since there could be no mere human greater than Davidmdashthe anointed King of YHWH and ancestor of the entire Messianic line ancestors always being considered greater than their descendantsmdashthe implication is that the Messiah has to be divine andno mere ldquoson of Davidrdquo By using the exact same term to translate YHWH and adon ldquolordrdquo the God-breathed Greek text even subtly suggests that perhaps the Messiah is not just ldquodivinerdquo in some Arian sense but in fact IS the very kuriosmdashYHWHmdashreferred to in Psalm 1101 a truth that other New Testament passages make explicit Using two different terms obscures these key meanings and dampens the effect Jesusrsquo words would have had to the original readers and listeners

42 Kurios and the divinity and humanity of Christ

Viewed from the lens of translation theory the idea of substituting kurios for the Hebrew YHWH seems like a translation error While YHWH is the proper name of the one true God of Israel the Greek title kurios can apply toboth divine and human masters and could apply to pagan gods as well as YHWH Why would the Holy Spirit inspire such a substitution Indeed the doubt that kurios is indeed God-breathed as a rendering of the divine name has led to the Jehovahrsquos Witnessesrsquo New World Translation which uses ldquoJehovahrdquo wherever they see an OldTestament reference to YHWH A similar approach is seen in some ldquoSacred Namerdquo translations9

But for those of us who accept that the Greek New Testament is indeed God-breathed including the choice of kurios to represent both the Hebrew YHWH and Adon it is possible to see a fascinating phenomenon at work Thedivine name is found throughout the Tanach But at the moment of history when the one whose Name is above allnames became flesh the divine Name is suddenly missing from what the Holy Spirit inspires and in its place is a word kurios which especially for the Jews of Jesusrsquo time included the meanings of both the divine Name as well as either human or divine lordship This wide range of possible meaning and referents allowed the same term to seamlessly apply to One who is both human and divine or as Paul so beautifully writes

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Key verses RSV Notes

Philippians 29-11

⁹Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name sup1⁰that at the name of Jesus everyknee should bow in heaven and on earth andunder the earth sup1sup1and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father

Paul is quoting Isaiah 4523 in which YHWH is speaking but he applies it to Jesus here This is reinforced even more by the phrase ldquoname which is above every namerdquo which in Paulrsquos Jewish context could only have been the name YHWH7 Paul also quotes Isaiah 4523 in Romans 14ː11 and applies it to God (the Father) In other words Paul takes the Hebrew YHWH in Isaiah 4523 translates it kurios and applies it to both God the Father and Jesus in two separate places This is an excellent example of the theological role of kurios in the NT as a link between the Father and the Son

Hebrews 110

ldquoThou Lord didst found the earth in the beginning and the heavens are the work of thy handsrdquo

Ps 10225 refers to YHWH (actual word kurie is in LXX) the author applies this to Jesus

1 Peter 23 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good (ESV)

This verse quotes Psalm 348 ldquoTaste and see that YHWH is goodrdquo but Peter applies this to Jesus (see following verse clearly Jesus starting with ldquohimrdquo)

1 Peter 312 14-15

sup1sup2For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are open to their prayer But the face of the Lord is against those who do evilrdquosup1⁴ldquoDo not fear what they fear nor be in dreadrdquo sup1⁵but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord

Verses 14-15 are adapted from Isaiah 812-13 whichhas YHWH tsəvarsquoot but Peter applies it to Christ here Peterrsquos quote in verse 12 of Psalm 3415 strengthens the association here of kurios with YHWH

Jude 4-5 ⁴For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation ungodly people who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord Jesus Christ ⁵Now Iwant to remind you although you once fully knew it that JesusLord who saved a people out of the land of Egypt afterward destroyed those who did not believe

There is a significant textual variation in verse 5 between ldquoJesusrdquo and ldquoLordrdquo Most modern scholars believe ldquoJesusrdquo is the most likely original reading Even if kurios were the original reading the referentof the verse would likely still be Jesus as YHWH since Jesus is referred to as ldquoour only kuriosrdquo just one verse before Whichever variant is chosen this text helps establish the high Christological thinking of Jude the Lordrsquos brother who knew both his humanity and divinity

Table 1 Verses where YHWH quotes or allusions are applied to Jesus

In addition many verses seem to play off the ambiguity of kurios as a referent to either YHWH or Jesus perhaps

7 See Norm Mundhenk (2010) ldquoJesus is Lord The Tetragrammaton in Bible Translationrdquo Bible Translator 61(2) p 60 Mundhenk states ldquoVerses 9-11 in Philippians then specifically refer to some of the most monotheistic passages in the Old Testament yet they say that God himself has given the Name (YHWH) to Jesus so that everyone on earth will bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (= YHWH)rdquo

intentionally by the authors as given in Table 2 below

Key verses RSV Notes

Mt 33 Mk 13 Lk 34

ldquoPrepare the way of the Lordrdquo

quoting YHWH from Isaiah 403 but subtly refers to Jesus as well

John 123 ldquoMake straight the wayof the Lordrdquo

Luke 128 ldquoThe Lord is with yourdquo the angel Gabriel to Mary referent is delightfully ambiguous

Luke 176 ldquoAnd you child will be called the prophet of the Most High for you will go before the Lord to prepare his waysrdquo

Zechariahrsquos prophecy here about his son John alludes to Malachi 31 in which YHWH says ldquoI send my messenger to prepare the way before merdquo He continues ldquoAnd the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight behold he is coming says YHWH of hostsrdquo Like the quotes of Isaiah 403 above this verse clearly refers to John preparing the way for YHWH but also subtly includes Jesus as the ldquoLordrdquo for whom John is preparing the way

1 Thessalonians 52

For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night

The phrase ldquoday of the Lordrdquo in the OT is always ldquoday of YHWHrdquo but here the reference is also clearly to the return of Jesus This same phrase applied to Jesus implicitly but clearly is found in 2 Peter 310 and2 Thessalonians 22 and with the reference to Jesus explicit in 1 Corinthians 55 and 2 Corinthians 114

Acts 928 [Saul was] ldquopreaching boldly in the name of the Lordrdquo

Like ldquoday of the Lordrdquo the phrase ldquoname of the Lordrdquo(ldquoname of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT Here and elsewhere in the NT the phrase is used ambiguously to refer to either God the Father or Jesus while elsewhere the phrase is also commonly used explicitly for people who speak or act ldquoin the name of the Lord Jesus ldquo(eg Colossians 317)

1 Thessalonians 415

For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord that we who are alive who are left until the coming of the Lordshall not precede thosewho have fallen asleep

Similarly the phrase ldquoword of the Lordrdquo (or ldquoword of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT and also used by the NT writers Is this ldquoLordrdquo YHWHor ldquoLordrdquo Jesus The answer is not given nor is it necessary to know because Jesus IS YHWH and Jesusrsquo word is YHWHrsquos word

Table 2 Verses where the divine referent of kurios is ambiguous

In addition to these particular verses as stated above fully 27 of the instances of kurios in the New Testament clearly refer to God but are ambiguous as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is intended This general ambiguity adds to the sense of ldquoLordrdquo as being a term that unifies the members of the Trinity

41 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo

One final instance serves to underline the theological importance of kurios as a term that deliberately links the YHWH and Adon(ai) meanings of the Tanach In four places (Matthew Mark Luke and Acts) the NT quotes the first part of Psalm 1101 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo Let us compare the Greek of Mt 2244 with the Hebrew of Psalm 1101

Εἶπεν [ὁ]8 Κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου

נאם יהוה לאדני

The Greek is an exact quote of the LXX for Psalm 1101 there is no distinction made between either instance of ldquoLordrdquo The Hebrew text is written nərsquoum YHWH ladoni but this is always vocalized as ldquoנאם אדני לאדניrdquo nərsquoum Adonai ladoni which is what is represented in the Greek text

The three instances in the gospels of these words come from when Jesus is teaching and asking the people who David is referring to as ldquomy Lordrdquo In Matthew 2243 Jesus says that ldquoDavid in the Spirit calls him lsquoLordrsquordquo This verse often confuses readers leading translators to want to ldquoclarifyrdquo the meaning by separating out the two instances of kurios justifying this choice by the fact that the underlying written Hebrew has two separate terms

However by doing so they completely miss Jesusrsquo line of argument The point of Jesusrsquo question is that David could not refer to the Messiah as lsquomy Lordrsquo unless the Messiah was greater than he And since there could be no mere human greater than Davidmdashthe anointed King of YHWH and ancestor of the entire Messianic line ancestors always being considered greater than their descendantsmdashthe implication is that the Messiah has to be divine andno mere ldquoson of Davidrdquo By using the exact same term to translate YHWH and adon ldquolordrdquo the God-breathed Greek text even subtly suggests that perhaps the Messiah is not just ldquodivinerdquo in some Arian sense but in fact IS the very kuriosmdashYHWHmdashreferred to in Psalm 1101 a truth that other New Testament passages make explicit Using two different terms obscures these key meanings and dampens the effect Jesusrsquo words would have had to the original readers and listeners

42 Kurios and the divinity and humanity of Christ

Viewed from the lens of translation theory the idea of substituting kurios for the Hebrew YHWH seems like a translation error While YHWH is the proper name of the one true God of Israel the Greek title kurios can apply toboth divine and human masters and could apply to pagan gods as well as YHWH Why would the Holy Spirit inspire such a substitution Indeed the doubt that kurios is indeed God-breathed as a rendering of the divine name has led to the Jehovahrsquos Witnessesrsquo New World Translation which uses ldquoJehovahrdquo wherever they see an OldTestament reference to YHWH A similar approach is seen in some ldquoSacred Namerdquo translations9

But for those of us who accept that the Greek New Testament is indeed God-breathed including the choice of kurios to represent both the Hebrew YHWH and Adon it is possible to see a fascinating phenomenon at work Thedivine name is found throughout the Tanach But at the moment of history when the one whose Name is above allnames became flesh the divine Name is suddenly missing from what the Holy Spirit inspires and in its place is a word kurios which especially for the Jews of Jesusrsquo time included the meanings of both the divine Name as well as either human or divine lordship This wide range of possible meaning and referents allowed the same term to seamlessly apply to One who is both human and divine or as Paul so beautifully writes

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Key verses RSV Notes

Mt 33 Mk 13 Lk 34

ldquoPrepare the way of the Lordrdquo

quoting YHWH from Isaiah 403 but subtly refers to Jesus as well

John 123 ldquoMake straight the wayof the Lordrdquo

Luke 128 ldquoThe Lord is with yourdquo the angel Gabriel to Mary referent is delightfully ambiguous

Luke 176 ldquoAnd you child will be called the prophet of the Most High for you will go before the Lord to prepare his waysrdquo

Zechariahrsquos prophecy here about his son John alludes to Malachi 31 in which YHWH says ldquoI send my messenger to prepare the way before merdquo He continues ldquoAnd the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight behold he is coming says YHWH of hostsrdquo Like the quotes of Isaiah 403 above this verse clearly refers to John preparing the way for YHWH but also subtly includes Jesus as the ldquoLordrdquo for whom John is preparing the way

1 Thessalonians 52

For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night

The phrase ldquoday of the Lordrdquo in the OT is always ldquoday of YHWHrdquo but here the reference is also clearly to the return of Jesus This same phrase applied to Jesus implicitly but clearly is found in 2 Peter 310 and2 Thessalonians 22 and with the reference to Jesus explicit in 1 Corinthians 55 and 2 Corinthians 114

Acts 928 [Saul was] ldquopreaching boldly in the name of the Lordrdquo

Like ldquoday of the Lordrdquo the phrase ldquoname of the Lordrdquo(ldquoname of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT Here and elsewhere in the NT the phrase is used ambiguously to refer to either God the Father or Jesus while elsewhere the phrase is also commonly used explicitly for people who speak or act ldquoin the name of the Lord Jesus ldquo(eg Colossians 317)

1 Thessalonians 415

For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord that we who are alive who are left until the coming of the Lordshall not precede thosewho have fallen asleep

Similarly the phrase ldquoword of the Lordrdquo (or ldquoword of YHWHrdquo) is common in the OT and also used by the NT writers Is this ldquoLordrdquo YHWHor ldquoLordrdquo Jesus The answer is not given nor is it necessary to know because Jesus IS YHWH and Jesusrsquo word is YHWHrsquos word

Table 2 Verses where the divine referent of kurios is ambiguous

In addition to these particular verses as stated above fully 27 of the instances of kurios in the New Testament clearly refer to God but are ambiguous as to whether the Father Son or Holy Spirit is intended This general ambiguity adds to the sense of ldquoLordrdquo as being a term that unifies the members of the Trinity

41 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo

One final instance serves to underline the theological importance of kurios as a term that deliberately links the YHWH and Adon(ai) meanings of the Tanach In four places (Matthew Mark Luke and Acts) the NT quotes the first part of Psalm 1101 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo Let us compare the Greek of Mt 2244 with the Hebrew of Psalm 1101

Εἶπεν [ὁ]8 Κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου

נאם יהוה לאדני

The Greek is an exact quote of the LXX for Psalm 1101 there is no distinction made between either instance of ldquoLordrdquo The Hebrew text is written nərsquoum YHWH ladoni but this is always vocalized as ldquoנאם אדני לאדניrdquo nərsquoum Adonai ladoni which is what is represented in the Greek text

The three instances in the gospels of these words come from when Jesus is teaching and asking the people who David is referring to as ldquomy Lordrdquo In Matthew 2243 Jesus says that ldquoDavid in the Spirit calls him lsquoLordrsquordquo This verse often confuses readers leading translators to want to ldquoclarifyrdquo the meaning by separating out the two instances of kurios justifying this choice by the fact that the underlying written Hebrew has two separate terms

However by doing so they completely miss Jesusrsquo line of argument The point of Jesusrsquo question is that David could not refer to the Messiah as lsquomy Lordrsquo unless the Messiah was greater than he And since there could be no mere human greater than Davidmdashthe anointed King of YHWH and ancestor of the entire Messianic line ancestors always being considered greater than their descendantsmdashthe implication is that the Messiah has to be divine andno mere ldquoson of Davidrdquo By using the exact same term to translate YHWH and adon ldquolordrdquo the God-breathed Greek text even subtly suggests that perhaps the Messiah is not just ldquodivinerdquo in some Arian sense but in fact IS the very kuriosmdashYHWHmdashreferred to in Psalm 1101 a truth that other New Testament passages make explicit Using two different terms obscures these key meanings and dampens the effect Jesusrsquo words would have had to the original readers and listeners

42 Kurios and the divinity and humanity of Christ

Viewed from the lens of translation theory the idea of substituting kurios for the Hebrew YHWH seems like a translation error While YHWH is the proper name of the one true God of Israel the Greek title kurios can apply toboth divine and human masters and could apply to pagan gods as well as YHWH Why would the Holy Spirit inspire such a substitution Indeed the doubt that kurios is indeed God-breathed as a rendering of the divine name has led to the Jehovahrsquos Witnessesrsquo New World Translation which uses ldquoJehovahrdquo wherever they see an OldTestament reference to YHWH A similar approach is seen in some ldquoSacred Namerdquo translations9

But for those of us who accept that the Greek New Testament is indeed God-breathed including the choice of kurios to represent both the Hebrew YHWH and Adon it is possible to see a fascinating phenomenon at work Thedivine name is found throughout the Tanach But at the moment of history when the one whose Name is above allnames became flesh the divine Name is suddenly missing from what the Holy Spirit inspires and in its place is a word kurios which especially for the Jews of Jesusrsquo time included the meanings of both the divine Name as well as either human or divine lordship This wide range of possible meaning and referents allowed the same term to seamlessly apply to One who is both human and divine or as Paul so beautifully writes

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Page 7: Κύριος in the New Testament: Christology, Trinity, and Translation · 2020-05-01 · the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that

41 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo

One final instance serves to underline the theological importance of kurios as a term that deliberately links the YHWH and Adon(ai) meanings of the Tanach In four places (Matthew Mark Luke and Acts) the NT quotes the first part of Psalm 1101 ldquoThe Lord said to my Lordrdquo Let us compare the Greek of Mt 2244 with the Hebrew of Psalm 1101

Εἶπεν [ὁ]8 Κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου

נאם יהוה לאדני

The Greek is an exact quote of the LXX for Psalm 1101 there is no distinction made between either instance of ldquoLordrdquo The Hebrew text is written nərsquoum YHWH ladoni but this is always vocalized as ldquoנאם אדני לאדניrdquo nərsquoum Adonai ladoni which is what is represented in the Greek text

The three instances in the gospels of these words come from when Jesus is teaching and asking the people who David is referring to as ldquomy Lordrdquo In Matthew 2243 Jesus says that ldquoDavid in the Spirit calls him lsquoLordrsquordquo This verse often confuses readers leading translators to want to ldquoclarifyrdquo the meaning by separating out the two instances of kurios justifying this choice by the fact that the underlying written Hebrew has two separate terms

However by doing so they completely miss Jesusrsquo line of argument The point of Jesusrsquo question is that David could not refer to the Messiah as lsquomy Lordrsquo unless the Messiah was greater than he And since there could be no mere human greater than Davidmdashthe anointed King of YHWH and ancestor of the entire Messianic line ancestors always being considered greater than their descendantsmdashthe implication is that the Messiah has to be divine andno mere ldquoson of Davidrdquo By using the exact same term to translate YHWH and adon ldquolordrdquo the God-breathed Greek text even subtly suggests that perhaps the Messiah is not just ldquodivinerdquo in some Arian sense but in fact IS the very kuriosmdashYHWHmdashreferred to in Psalm 1101 a truth that other New Testament passages make explicit Using two different terms obscures these key meanings and dampens the effect Jesusrsquo words would have had to the original readers and listeners

42 Kurios and the divinity and humanity of Christ

Viewed from the lens of translation theory the idea of substituting kurios for the Hebrew YHWH seems like a translation error While YHWH is the proper name of the one true God of Israel the Greek title kurios can apply toboth divine and human masters and could apply to pagan gods as well as YHWH Why would the Holy Spirit inspire such a substitution Indeed the doubt that kurios is indeed God-breathed as a rendering of the divine name has led to the Jehovahrsquos Witnessesrsquo New World Translation which uses ldquoJehovahrdquo wherever they see an OldTestament reference to YHWH A similar approach is seen in some ldquoSacred Namerdquo translations9

But for those of us who accept that the Greek New Testament is indeed God-breathed including the choice of kurios to represent both the Hebrew YHWH and Adon it is possible to see a fascinating phenomenon at work Thedivine name is found throughout the Tanach But at the moment of history when the one whose Name is above allnames became flesh the divine Name is suddenly missing from what the Holy Spirit inspires and in its place is a word kurios which especially for the Jews of Jesusrsquo time included the meanings of both the divine Name as well as either human or divine lordship This wide range of possible meaning and referents allowed the same term to seamlessly apply to One who is both human and divine or as Paul so beautifully writes

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Page 8: Κύριος in the New Testament: Christology, Trinity, and Translation · 2020-05-01 · the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that

who existing in the form of Goddid not consider equality with Godas something to be used for His own advantage

Instead He emptied Himselfby assuming the form of a slavetaking on the likeness of men

And when He had come as a manin His external formHe humbled Himself by becoming obedientto the point of deathmdasheven to death on a cross

For this reason God highly exalted Himand gave Him the namethat is above every nameso that at the name of Jesusevery knee will bowmdashof those who are in heaven and on earthand under the earthmdashand every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lordto the glory of God the Father (Philippians 25-11 HCSB)

In other words the Holy Spirit did not make a ldquotranslation mistakerdquo when He chose to inspire kurios where He hadpreviously inspired both YHWH and Adon Rather the ambiguous and relatively lower status of kurios compared to YHWH is a reflection of the humility of Jesus Himself the one who is truly YHWH yet is willing to take on for Himself a term that can as easily be used for the one true God of Israel as for an unknown and fully human stranger (John 411) Just as Jesus Himself is fully human and fully divine the term kurios carries within it the full potential to refer to an ordinary man or to the LORD Himself The term kurios like Jesus Himself connects heavenand earth God and Man Yet it does so not by directly and loudly proclaiming ldquoJesus is YHWHrdquo but instead by using a term clothed in comparative humility a term thatmdashunlike YHWHmdashis sullied by application to Zeus and Caesar cruel masters and tyrants just as our humanity is sullied by sin Like Jesus Kurios is YHWH in humble human flesh

5 The Trinitarian role of kuriosMore than any other term in Greek kurios ties together the three members of the Trinity We have already seen how kurios is very commonly used to refer to God the Father and Jesus and links them together strongly Whereas theos nearly always refers to God the Father and Χριστός Christos ldquoChristrdquo refers exclusively to Jesus in the New Testament10 kurios is very frequently applied to bothmdashit is used to refer to God the Father roughly 100 times and to Jesus the Son around 240 times In addition there are roughly 200 times where kurios is used to refer to God but the specific member of the Trinity is not clear Kurios is the second-most common title for Jesus (after Christos) and the third most common for the Father (after theos and Πατήρ pater ldquoFatherrdquo) As we exploredabove it is this flexibility of referent that enables kurios to play a linking function between the Father and the Son

In addition Paul in 2 Corinthians 3 also applies kurios to the Holy Spirit in a passage that is highly significant to Trinitarian theology

10 Except of course when it refers to false Messiahs

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Page 9: Κύριος in the New Testament: Christology, Trinity, and Translation · 2020-05-01 · the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that

sup1sup2Since we have such a hope we are very bold sup1sup3not like Moses who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor sup1⁴But their minds were hardened for to this day when they read the old covenant that same veil remains unlifted because only through Christ is it taken away sup1⁵Yes to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their minds sup1⁶but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed sup1⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit ofthe Lord is there is freedom sup1⁸And we all with unveiled face beholding the glory of the Lord are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit

For the first instance of kurios in verse 16 the previous context is strongly Old Testament suggesting the meaningof YHWH for kurios But the phrase ldquoturns to the Lordrdquo here strongly suggests Jesus as a contrast to Moses and the ldquoold covenantrdquo and Christ is directly referred to in verse 14 as the one through whom the veil is taken away Yet verse 17 explicitly says that the Holy Spirit is the ldquoLordrdquo referred to Immediately after in the same verse Paul calls Him the ldquoSpirit of the Lordrdquo indicating that the ldquoLordrdquo here is a reference to God the Father or Jesus the Son (or more likely both since the Father and Son share one Spirit) Verse 18 refers to Exodus 34 in which YHWH is the ldquoLordrdquo Thus the three members of the Trinity are explicitly or implicitly included as referents of kurios in this passage Both numerically and in terms of theological weight no other term links the Father Son and Holy Spirit together more than kurios

When considering the case for the Christological and Trinitarian importance of kurios some might respond that allthis is reading too much into the term since the core functions played by kurios are simply a matter of the New Testament authors following what is written in their Bible the Septuagint Several responses can be given

The earliest Septuagint manuscripts do not have kurios for YHWH but instead transliterate the name or leave it in Hebrew or Paleo-Hebrew script If anything it may indeed be that it was the New Testament usage of kurios that inspired the Christian Septuagint manuscripts to use kurios for YHWH rather than vice versa since early manuscripts transliterate or visually represent יהוה and kurios is only found in manuscripts after the apostolic era

Even if the Greek Scriptures that the New Testament authors held in their hands used kurios the Holy Spirit was perfectly capable of inspiring a different wording Indeed there are some differences between the Septuagint manuscripts we have today and the New Testment quotes of Old Testament passages There is no reason to think this could not have extended to the handling of YHWH if God had so desired

The New Testament authors in several places deliberately equate YHWH with Jesus through the use of kurios and do so in passages where the Christological and Trinitarian meaning is central This indicates that the inspired authors knew what they were doing when they used kurios whether or not the usage was in accordance with what they read in their Greek Scriptures

When we consider the theological implications of the use of kurios in the New Testament we can marvel at the fact that God in His wisdom sovereignly used the fear that post-exilic Jews had of pronouncing the name of YHWH to communicate crucial Trinitarian doctrine in the New Testament The avoidance of saying the name YHWH out loud is clearly not based on a biblical injunctionmdashafter all Joel specifically prophesies that ldquoeveryone who calls on the name of YHWH will be savedrdquo (Joel 232) and prophets from Moses to David to Isaiah spoke boldly and publicly in the name of YHWH Yet God allowed the Jews to develop what arguably is nothing more than a superstition about pronouncing the name of YHWH which led them to substitute the term Adonai which was translated kuriosmdashonly for God to turn around and use this term born of superstition to declare plainly in the Greek New Testament what was only hinted at in the Tanach That YHWH the LORD is not only God but also Messiah not only Father but also Son and Spirit not only divine but also humanmdashand not just human but a humiliated slave naked and dead on a cross And that is why God gave Him the Name that is above all names the

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Page 10: Κύριος in the New Testament: Christology, Trinity, and Translation · 2020-05-01 · the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that

name of YHWH the name of Kurios the name of LORD He is Father Son and Spirit and He truly is ΚύριοςmdashLord Owner Master of all (Acts 1036 Romans 1012)

6 The inadequacy of articular usage to distinguish the meaning of kuriosThus far the discussion of the theological role of kurios has treated the term as a single key term However some translators have argued that the presence or absence of the Greek article actually creates two separate key termsthat the article is key to understanding whether kurios is referring to God the Father or Jesus and that the article therefore justifies treating ldquokuriosrdquo and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as two separate key terms which can be translated with entirely different terms in the receptor language

For example Leith and Andrea Gray (pseudonyms) argue that for Muslims the term kurios should be translated differently based on whether it refers to God the Father or God the Son

As for the messianic title ldquoLordrdquo one of the most common of the titles for the promised Messiah its traditionally translated form has created significant offense and confusion among Muslim audiences Many translations do not distinguish between the Greek word kurios as referring to YHWH and ldquothe kuriosrdquo as referring to the Messiah even though the Greek itself very consistently makes distinctions in usage (as do ancient translations such as Syriac) As a result some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation of the Biblewhich uses the term as-sayyid (the master) when ldquothe kuriosrdquo is found as a title for the Messiah and Allah when the the [sic] Greek kurios is referring to God For a thorough exegetical treatment of the Greek kurios see Brown and Samuel (2002)11

When the Grays state

some Muslims understand the title to mean ldquothe deity Jesusrdquo and that the Bible is declaring the existence of Jesus as another God besides God the Father Others take it to mean that Jesus is the same being as the Father This has been corrected in a recent Muslim-sensitive translation

it is difficult to understand how this differs from saying ldquoMuslims misunderstand the Trinity Therefore we separated out this term which was too loaded with Trinitarian theologyrdquo What people group in the world does not misunderstand the Trinity without careful teaching

Their response to such a critique might focus on the Greek article which they say ldquovery consistentlyrdquo distinguishesbetween kurios as God and kurios as Messiah They seem to base this claim on an unpublished article by Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel12 Brown and Samuel claim in their introduction

Unfortunately most English translations of the New Testament have made no distinction between lsquoLordrsquo as a messianic title and lsquoLORDrsquo as a substitute for the divine name even though the Greek text makes a distinction in 96 of the instances

Presumably this is the source of the Graysrsquo claim Brown and Samuel claim in the rest of the paper that when kurios has an article it nearly always refers to Jesus and when it has no article (ldquoanarthrousrdquo) it nearly always refers to God the Father

11 Leith Gray and Andrea Gray (2008) ldquoA Muslim encounters the Gospel of Mark Theological implications of contextual mismatchrdquo International Journal of Frontier Missiology (25)3 127ndash134

12 Richard Brown and Christopher J Samuel (2003) The meanings of κυριος in the New Testament (unpublished manuscript)

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

When we examine the New Testament data on kurios carefully we find a very different picture than that painted by this Brown and Samuel quote or the Grayrsquos apparent reference to it Table 3 gives an analysis of when the article appears and whether YHWH or Jesus are the referents (full data available from the author) Instances where God (the Father Son or Spirit) are not the references are excluded in this analysis

following Brown amp Samuelrsquos pattern

935 8 175 27 na 3035 (out of 612 instances or 50)

We can see here that when the referent is clear there certainly is a general tendency for the article to be present more often when kurios is being used as a title for Jesus than when it is a quote or clear allusion to the divine name YHWH However this pattern is not followed anywhere near 96 of the time as Brown and Samuel claim Infact when all uses of kurios that refer to God (Father Son or Holy Spirit) are included this pattern is followed not96 but a mere 50 of the time14 Brown and Samuelrsquos shockingly high number seems to derive from two main sources

When considering the large number of cases where the referent is ambiguous (particularly in Acts and the Epistles) Brown and Samuel assign nearly every instance to either Jesus or YHWH rather than allowing for greater ambiguity Sometimes they assign these instances on fairly weak or disputed exegetical grounds In certain instances they seem to engage in circular reasoning by using the articlersquos presence or absence to determine the referent

They make a large number of exceptions to their rule some of more debatable validity than others and only count the remaining instances in their final statistic without reporting how often these exceptions occur Even using their own assignments of reference and their own data the pattern of Jesus being articular and God the Father being anarthrous is followed a mere 58 of the time under the most generous interpretations of their data

If the articular usage were truly important to the meaning that the NT authors wanted to communicate they certainly would have found ways to make this distinction clear more than half the time If grammatical requirements or patterns of naturalness in Greek made the article ungrammatical or unnatural as a distinguishing marker (as for example in the vocative where articles are not allowed) they could instead have found entirely separate terms to maintain the distinction similar to the way Hebrew uses YHWH and Adon(ai) as two separate terms Certainly kurios was not the only possible Greek word available to the Holy Spirit for these various meanings Although it would be too much to say that the article is entirely irrelevant to the meaning of the

13 Instances where manuscript evidence of the article is mixed are counted as 05 with the article and 05 without14 If one considers not just references to YHWH but to God the Father in general the pattern drops to 48

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Page 12: Κύριος in the New Testament: Christology, Trinity, and Translation · 2020-05-01 · the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that

passage the fact that Brown and Samuelrsquos pattern is ignored as often as it is followed by the NT authors strongly suggests that they did not consider the article to be especially important as a distinguishing mark for kurios and that modern translators therefore should treat kurios as a single key term rather than two

It should also be noted that if the Graysrsquo suggestion were truly followedmdashnamely that when referring to God the Father or Jesus articular kurios be translated with sayyid in Arabic and anarthrous kurios as Allah one would end up with back translations such as these which all have no article in the Greek

ldquoGod Jesus into your [sg] hands I commit my spiritrdquo (Acts 759) ldquoIf you confess lsquoJesus is Godrsquo you will be savedrdquo (Romans 109) ldquoEvery tongue will confess that Jesus the Messiah is Godrdquo (Philippians 211) ldquoSanctify the Messiah as Godrdquo (1 Peter 315)

Somehow it seems doubtful that the ldquoMuslim-sensitiverdquo translation the Grays mention or any other translation for that matter has actually used the article consistently to bisect the meaning of kurios in this way15 If they did itwould hardly help them with their stated problem of Muslims misunderstanding the Trinity Suffice it to say that the Greek article is clearly not the most relevant factor at play

Nomina sacra and early Christian orthographic treatment of kuriosA further indication that the presence or absence of the article before kurios was not the most relevant factor in the early Churchrsquos understanding of kurios is the use of nomina sacra forms where scribes abbreviated certain key words written as capitals with a line above the abbreviation As New Testament textual expert Philip Comfortsays ldquothe nomina sacra for lsquoLordrsquo lsquoJesusrsquo lsquoChristrsquo lsquoGodrsquo and lsquoSpiritrsquo are present in all the earliest copies of the New Testament (and Christian Old Testament) beginning in the second century thereby pointing to a first-century creation daterdquo16 Comfort concludes that these abbreviations date back to ldquoeither the writers themselves or the very earliest copyistsrdquo17 Comfort states that early Christian scribesmdashperhaps even the apostles themselvesmdashused the nomina sacra form to distinguish between kurios referring to God Jesus or the Holy Spirit written ΚϹ (the first and last letters of κύριος) and kurios referring to other ldquolordsrdquo written out in full and that this distinction is intricately tied in to the Jewish treatment of the name YHWH

To name Jesus as ldquoLordrdquo was no small matter to a Jewish Christian who would have understood clearly that Yahweh has the same titleThe presence of the nomen sacrum ΚϹ in New Testament writings was a way for Christians to show that the title kurios assigned to Yahweh in the Old Testament was now ascribed to Jesus In other words the nomen sacrum ΚϹ would signal that Jesus was worthy of as much sacred reverence as was given to Yahweh

In writing kurios as ΚϹ the New Testament writers and scribes were signaling that Jesus was the divine Lord superior to Caesar and any god Furthermore the nomen sacrum indicated a distinction between Jesusrsquo lordship and that of others who were masters and landowners for which the term kurios (written in plene) was also used18

Larry Hurtado one of the foremost scholars on nomina sacra concurs

15 Lest one respond as Brown and Samuel might that all these examples should not be translated with ldquoGodAllahrdquo because they are predicate nominative and non-referential we should remember that each of these examples quotes or strongly alludes to Hebrew verses with YHWH so ldquoGodAllahrdquo can hardly be argued to be too high a Christology for theseverses

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Page 13: Κύριος in the New Testament: Christology, Trinity, and Translation · 2020-05-01 · the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that

[T]here has been widespread agreement that this Christian scribal convention has some historical relationship to Jewish scribal practices that involved according special treatment to the Tetragrammaton19

In other words rather than treating kurios translations of YHWH separately from other instances of kurios as modern translators sometimes do early Christians understood kurios in relationship to Jesus as inherently carrying associations of His divinity and treated kurios with a similar type of special treatment afforded the name of YHWH Early Christians possibly the New Testament authors themselves did make a distinction in their treatment of kuriosmdashbut this distinction was between the divine LORD and merely human lords not between the YHWH and Jesus This type of early Christian treatment of kurios as a term of divinitymdashcompletely irrespective of the presence or absence of the Greek articlemdashis in striking contrast to the treatment of kurios in several Muslim Idiom Translations

As a final note the theological dangers of separating out this key term can be seen in the fact that of all major English language translations only the Jehovahrsquos Witness ldquoNew World Translationrdquo separates out the translation of kurios in the way that we see some Muslim Idiom Translations do Even if the motivation for such translation practices differs significantly between Jehovahrsquos Witnesses and MIT translators one may be properly concerned that these practices may lead readers to an Arian type of thinking that weakens or even denies Trinitarian doctrine20

7 ConclusionWe have seen the theological importance that kurios has in the New Testament We have also seen that the article does not create a sufficient contrast in meaning to justify using two different terms based on the referent being God the Father or Jesus It is clear then that the theological role of kurios in declaring that Jesus is YHWH Lord of all and that the Father Son and Holy Spirit are One must be maintained in any faithful translation The more consistently kurios is translated the more this function is maintained The approach utilized by advocates of Muslim Idiom Translation in which translators differentiate the translation of kurios based on whether they determine God the Father or God the Son to be the referent by its nature disrupts the unity of the Trinity and has no justified linguistic basis

This does not however mean that 100 verbal correspondence for kurios is an absolute unbending requirement for faithful translation of kurios For example some languages have complex honorific or deferential systems for terms of address where a single term used as broadly as kurios extending from the Lord God Himself all the way down to a polite term of address for a stranger (eg John 411 where the Samaritan woman is skeptical toward Jesus and is only using kurios in a formal polite way rather than indicating any kind of belief in His Lordship or desire to follow Him) is simply not possible with a single term Even in English the use of ldquoLordrdquo in John 411 stretches the usage of the English word ldquoLordrdquo beyond its normal range which is why nearly all translations use a term like ldquoSirrdquo instead

On the other hand even in a place like John 411 loss of consistency carries some cost It could be argued that Johns use of kurios in this verse has a delightful anticipatory irony for the reader who already knows whats going to happen in the story We might imagine Jesus thinking something like ldquoYou call me lsquoLordrsquo and rightly somdashif you only knew who I AM youd see just how right you arerdquo Even in this verse then one option would be to retain theterm ldquoLordrdquo with a footnote saying that this was the common respectful term for a stranger but that literarily it could be read as anticipating a fuller understanding of the sense in which Jesus is ldquoLordrdquo

19 Larry W Hurtado (2006) The Earliest Christian Artifacts Manuscripts and Christian Origins Eerdmanrsquos 12120 For further discussion of this point see Mike Tisdell Common Theology Results in Common Translation Practices

(unpublished manuscript)

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself

Page 14: Κύριος in the New Testament: Christology, Trinity, and Translation · 2020-05-01 · the New Testament and showing that the New Testament authors believed at an early date that

Johnrsquos use of kurios is even more delightfully ironic in 2015 where Mary in the presence of the risen Lord thinks He is the gardener and says ldquoKurios if youve carried him away tell me where youve put him and I will take him awayrdquo Mary is clearly using kurios as a respectful term for a male stranger not as a divine titlemdashyet the reader knows full well that she is speaking to the One who more than all others deserves the title she gives Him Here at the moment where His full Lordship over death is about to be revealed to another human being for the first time Mary declares Him ldquoLordrdquo without even knowing it On the one hand to use ldquoLordrdquo in English here would beespecially misleading to readers and yet the loss of Johnrsquos literary device of dramatic irony is also especially regrettable Paratext such as footnotes are therefore particularly valuable here in helping readers see the beauty of this literary device

Another semantic role of kurios which may or may not overlap with the core use as a title for God is to indicate a ldquomasterrdquo or ldquoownerrdquo when a master-slave relationship or ownership of property is in view (eg Matthew 2140 in which the kurios ldquoownerrdquo clearly represents God the Father or Luke 1237 where the kurios of the slaves clearly represents Jesus) Yet even here something is lost when the same term is not used even if that loss may be unavoidable in certain passages and in certain languages

Different languages may have different fault lines where the full range of kurios cannot be translated with the same word in specific contexts but translators should strive to maintain concordance when possible Crucially there exists a wide core set of instances in the New Testament for which consistent translation truly is required This core set which ties together the Trinity and exalts Jesus as YHWH cannot be just a shriveled core with a few instances that clearly tie Jesus to YHWH along with a smattering of Old Testament references Instead it must be a truly robust core that includes every Old Testament reference with kurios (being a translation of either YHWH or in a few cases Adon) along with any place where Jesus is declared to be Lord by His apostles and disciples post-resurrection Ideally the core consistent set would include most or all pre-resurrection instances as well though this will depend more on the semantic fault lines of the language of translation If a word being consideredfor the role of consistently translating this core set cannot play this broad a role then translators should look hardto find a better term that can given the crucial theological importance of consistency within this core set

Every culture and every language has ways of referring to someone of high status Though not ideal it would be better if necessary to use a term that loses distinction between kurios and a term like basileus (ldquokingrdquo) or archon (ldquoleader chiefrdquo) than to lose the main theological role that kurios plays in the New Testament Regardless of language or culture differentiating between Father Son and Spirit as referents of kurios is never linguistically necessary and is theologically destructive Instead the beautiful truth that Jesus is Kurios one with the Father andthe Holy Spirit should be given to all people just as it was breathed out by the Breath of the Kurios Himself
