Greek Word Study:
Bondservant: ‘doulos’; from ‘deo’ (to bind); a slave (literal or figurative, involuntary or voluntary; frequently therefore in a qualified sense of subjection or subserviency); - (bond-) servant, slave. A noun meaning slave, servant. (I) Spoken of involuntary service: a slave as opposed to a free man (1Co 7:21; Gal 3:28; Col 3:11; Rev 5:15) Also generally: a servant (…Eph 6:5…). In Php 2:7, having taken “the form of a servant,” means appearing in a humble and despised condition. (II) Metaphorically, spoken of voluntary service: a servant implying obedience devotion (Jn 15:15; Ro 6:16). Implying modesty (2Co 4:5) Spoken of true followers and worshippers of God, e.g. a servant of God; the devoted followers and ministers of Christ (Eph 6:6; 2 Ti 2:24)
Obey: ‘hupakouo’: from ‘hupo’ (under) and ‘akouo’ (to hear); to hear under (as a subordinate) i.e. to listen attentively; by implication to heed or conform to a command or authority: - answer, become obedient, obey. To obey one in authority. Spoken of slaves obeying masters (Eph 6:5; Col 3:22)
Master: ‘kyrios’: from ‘kuros’ (supremacy); supreme in authority, i.e. (as noun) controller, (by implication) Mr. (as a respectful title): - (x in honor of) Lord, lord, master, owner, Sir. N. from kuros (n.f.), might, power. Lord, master, owner: of persons, servants, slaves, (…Eph 6:5, 9…) Spoken of God and Christ; of God as supreme Lord and Sovereign of the universe. (Eph 6:9)
Sincere: ‘haplotes’: from ‘haplous’ (singleness), i.e. (subjective) sincerity (without dissimulation or self-seeking), or (objective) generosity (copious bestowal); - generous (-ity), simplicity, sincere (-ity); N. from ‘haplous’: simplicity: simplicity of heart (Eph 6:5: Col 3:22) Specifically spoken of Christian simplicity, frankness, integrity, fidelity, etc. (Ro 12:8; 2 Co 8:2; 9:11, 13; 11:3)
Heart: ‘kardia’: “heart” i.e. (fig) the thoughts or feelings (mind) N. meaning heart. The seat and center of circulation and therefore human life. In NT used only figuratively; (I) as seat of desires, feelings, affections, passions, impulse, i.e. the heart or mind.
Eye-service: ‘opthalmodouleia’: sight-labor, i.e. that needs watching (remissness): - Eye-service, i.e. that is work or service rendered only under the master’s eye (Eph 6:6; Col 3:22)
People-pleasers: ‘anthropareskos’: man-courting, i.e. fawning: - people pleaser. Adj. from ‘anthropos’ (man) and ‘aresko’ (to be agreeable) to please. Desirous to please men without regard to God (Eph 6:6; Col 3:22)
Heart: ‘psuche’: from ‘psucho’ (breath) i.e. (by implication) spirit, abstract or concrete, (the animal principle sentient only; thus distinguished on the one hand from ‘pneuma’ which is the rational and immortal soul; and on the other from ‘zoe’ which is mere vitality): - being, heart, life, mind, person self, soul. Man as consisting of two parts (or substances), but with spirit and soul representing in some contexts a real subdivision of the immaterial. Accordingly, ‘psuche’ is contrasted to ‘soma’(body) and ‘pneuma (spirit) (1 Th 5:23). The ‘psuche’, no less than the ‘sarx’ (flesh) belongs to the lower region of man’s being. Sometimes ‘psuche’ stands for the immaterial part of man made up of the soul (psuche in the restrictive sense of the life element), and the spirit, ‘pneuma’. However, animals are not said to possess a spirit; this is only in man, giving him the ability to communicate with God.; in NT usually meaning the vital breath, the life element through which the body lives and feels, the principle of life manifested in the breath. (II) Specifically, the soul as the sentient principle, the seat of sense, desires, affections, appetites, passions, the lower aspect of one’s nature. In 1 Th 5:23, the whole man is indicated as consisting of spirit, soul, and body; soul and spirit the immaterial part of man upon which the Word of God is operative (Heb 4:12). Distinguished from the mind, because the soul is related to the affections (Mt 22:37); ‘ek psuches’: “from the soul”, meaning heartily (Eph 6:6; Col 3:23)
Partiality: ‘prosopolepsia’: favoritism: - show partiality. A respecting of persons, partiality, favoritism (Eph 6:9; Ja 2:1)
