Didaktos describes people or words presented as having received teaching, whether from God or the Spirit.

The attested use describes recipients or expressions marked by received teaching: people are taught by God in John 6:45, and words are taught by the Spirit rather than human wisdom in 1 Corinthians 2:13.

Senses in use

  1. Marked by received teaching · dominant

    In John 6:45, the nominative plural masculine form occurs in the statement that all will be taught by God; the APB renders the clause, "And they will all be taught of God." In 1 Corinthians 2:13, the dative plural masculine form is used of words set against human wisdom and associated with the Spirit; the APB renders "words taught by the Spirit."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses "taught" in both verses, presenting people as taught by God and words as taught by the Spirit. These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than isolate each token exactly.
