Definition: The Hebrew verb "altho" in the King James Version (KJV) translates to "with, or as though." It is a figurative expression used to describe something that is similar or identical to another but may be perceived as different from what it actually is.
For example:
-
'As though'
- This is often used to express a comparison that is not accurate.
-
'With'
- This is used when the speaker wants you to believe something is true, even though it isn't. It could mean "with" in context where someone or something appears as if they are.
-
'Like'
- When someone is saying something very similar to another person's words but not quite so exactly; an example might be someone being very polite and respectful to a friend but still making a comment that seems overly friendly.
So, for example:
- If you were asked "with what do you play the piano?" and your response was "As though I didn't know," it means you're saying you don't know how to play the piano.
Understanding this term in the KJV context can help people communicate more clearly with others by avoiding any misunderstandings or misinterpretations.
