προθύμως

Strong’s: G4290

Associated OET lemmas: προθύμως

Form 1

Sense 1: eager, eagerly, willing, willingly

Semantic entry: 25.69

Semantic domains: Attitudes and Emotions

Notes: It would be wrong to equate the meaning of πρόθυμος and προθύμως with ἑκούσιος, ἑκών, and ἑκουσίως (25.65: ἑκούσιος / 25.65: ἑκουσίως / 25.65: ἑκών), for πρόθυμος and προθύμως imply far more desire and eagerness, though both sets of terms are often translated in English as ‘willing’ or ‘willingly.’
