👉 Verse: "The Word, which has been revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Colossians 2:3) RVUs: A variation in the Hebrew vowel system. The term RVU stands for "revised," "translated," or "modified" words in the Old Testament. Definition: An adaptation of a word, phrase, or concept from an earlier time and then put into the English language by someone who understands its meaning and style. This could be through translation, borrowing ideas, or modifying existing texts. The RVU is particularly important for understanding how early Jewish communities used Hebrew words in their writing to convey spiritual concepts that were understood differently than later on in history.
