Strong's Greek · G5030

G5030 tachéōs

ταχέως

hastily, quickly, shortly, soon, suddenly

Looking for Hebrew H5030 nâbîyʼ? It has the same number in Strong's Hebrew lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of G5030. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.

When tachéōs is spoken over you, Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against Scripture with people you trust, and return to it in a year.

Definition

briefly, i.e. (in time) speedily, or (in manner) rapidly

Derivation

adverb from G5036 (ταχύς);

When tachéōs is spoken over you

Words like this one get spoken over people: in a prayer line, in a message from a friend, in a moment nobody planned. The lexicon gives you what tachéōs means. What God is saying to you through it is yours to record and weigh.

Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against verses like 2 Thessalonians 2:2 with people you trust, and return to it in a year to see what came of it.
