Please understand that the vast majority of my word study's were in my early 20's...I am 60 now....It's hard to remember it all.
But here is a tricky one, in Greek there are 3 words that translate to filled in English.
In Act's where the disciples received/filled with the Holy Ghost/Spirit, the word filled means, filled to over flowing. Later in Act's where the gentiles were filled with the Holy Spirit, the word means, filled to capacity. The 3rd word used elsewhere means filled 1/2 full.
A Lexicon, Concordance, and a Hebrew/Greek to English interlinear Bible are indispensable for heavy duty word studies of the Bible. For that deeper understanding that the King James, etc... bibles cant give you, and you will never hear from most preachers.
