ἀγών

Strong’s: G73

Associated OET lemmas: ἀγών

Form 1

Part of speech: noun, m.

Inflections: ἀγών; -ῶνος

Related lemmas: ἀγωνίζομαι

Sense 1: to struggle, to fight

Semantic entry: 39.29

Semantic domains: Hostility, Strife

Subdomains: Strife, Struggle

Definition: to engage in intense struggle, involving physical or nonphysical force against strong opposition

Notes: In a number of languages a marked distinction is made between physical fighting and nonphysical contending with someone. It is therefore often impossible to carry over any terminology involving war or physical struggling to contexts in which one is speaking of interpersonal hostility or contention.
