Notes: [{'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'The overlapping features of meaning in γῆ[d], χώρα[b], κλίμα, ὅριον, and μέρος[c] may be readily illustrated by the comparable overlapping of English terms such as region, territory, and land. For example, in the case of {S:04001502100018} it would be possible to speak of the region of Tyre and Sidon, the territory of Tyre and Sidon, the land of Tyre and Sidon, and even the district of Tyre and Sidon. The English terms region, territory, land, and district do differ in certain nuances of meaning reflecting primarily supplementary components which are largely connotative.'}, {'Caller': 2, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'μέρος[f] is incorporated at this point in Subdomain D Completely, Enough in Domain 78 Degree, since it serves as a semantic opposite to the meanings involved in πᾶς[c] ({D:78.44}), τέλος[d] ({D:78.47}), and ὅλος[c] ({D:78.44}).'}]

    Comments: The meanings of γῆ[d], χώρα[b], κλίμαὅριον, and μέρος[c] are not to be regarded as completely synonymous, but in certain of their NT usages they are largely overlapping in reference.

    DefinitionShort: a group of people having specific membership and forming a part of a larger constituency
    Glosses: ['party', 'group']
    Comments: In the NT μέρος[d] occurs only in the expression μέρος τῶν Φαρισαίων the party of the Pharisees, and though the Pharisees constituted a socio-religious group, the use of μέρος[d] does not focus upon this socio-religious aspect of the Pharisees relationship to the Jewish nation as a whole, but merely upon their identity as a part of a larger constituency. The expression the party of the Pharisees may be rendered in some languages as the group to which the Pharisees belonged or those who were counted as Pharisees or the division called Pharisees. In selecting a word for party or group, it is important to avoid a term which would be essentially political in meaning. If there is no general term for party, it may be necessary to use one with a socio-religious denotation, since that would be the most accurate way of identifying the Pharisees in their relationship to other distinctive groups in the Jewish nation.
