WORD WEALTH
4:11 mystery, musterion (moos-tay-ree-on); Strong’s #3466: From mueo, “to initiate into the mysteries,” hence a secret known only to the initiated, something hidden requiring special revelation. In the NT the word denotes something that people could never know by their own understanding and that demands a revelation from God. The secret thoughts, plans, and dispensations of God remain hidden from unregenerate mankind, but are revealed to all believers. In nonbiblical Greek musterion is knowledge withheld, concealed, or silenced. In biblical Greek it is truth revealed (see Col. 1:26). NT musterion focuses on Christ’s sinless life, atoning death, powerful resurrection, and dynamic ascension.
