Senses in use

  1. Ministering the gospel in an offering context · dominant

    In Romans 15:16, the present active masculine singular participle occurs in the clause about being a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles and ministering the gospel of God; the APB renders the surrounding clause "ministering the gospel of God," followed by the Gentiles' offering becoming acceptable.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Romans 15:16, the APB presents the clause as "ministering the gospel of God." That wording is treated as the verse's presentation of the clause rather than a precise lexical equivalent.
