         DefinitionShort: ceremonial washing referring to baptism

         Glosses: ['washing', 'baptism']

         Comments: In {S:04900502600012} the phrase τῷ λουτρῷ τοῦ ὕδατος has been generally interpreted as a reference to baptism, since the literal washing of an object by means of water would not be a means of ritual purification in the sense in which the church would be dedicated or consecrated to God. Similarly, in {S:05600300500036}, λουτρόν has generally been regarded as referring to baptism.
