         DefinitionShort: (derivative of {L:ἄκανθα} ‘thorn plant,’ {D:3.17}) pertaining to being made or consisting of thorns; in the NT, only in the phrase ἀκάνθινον στέφανον, a crown made from a plant with sharp projections on its stem and/or branches; symbol of hardship

         Glosses: crown of thorns

         Comments: It may be necessary to indicate that this crown of thorns is one made of ‘branches of a thorny bush,’ for the crown did not consist merely of thorns but of thorny vines or branches.
