Cousin

VIEW:42 DATA:01-04-2020
COUSIN.—Elisabeth is called Mary’s ‘cousin’ in Luk_1:36, and the relationship is often understood in the modern sense of that word. But ‘cousin’ in the English of 1611 meant no more than kinsman or kinswoman. The relationship between Mary and Elisabeth is not known.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


kuz?'n (ἀνεψιός, anepsiós): Only in Col_4:10, where Mark is said to be ?cousin? (Revised Version) to Barnabas, and not as in the King James Version, ?sister's son.? The renderings ?cousin? of the King James Version for συγγενής, suggenḗs, in Luk_1:36, Luk_1:58 were probably understood at the time of the translation, in the wider, and not in the more restricted, sense of the term, now almost universally prevalent. In view of this the renderings ?kinswoman,? ?kinsfolk? in the Revised Version (British and American) are preferable. As a title of honor and dignity, it occurs in 1 Esdras 4:42, etc. See KINSMAN.

PRINTER 1915.


Cousin
is given (Luk_1:36; Luk_1:58) by the Auth. Vers. in its vague acceptation as the rendering of συγγενής, a blood-relative, or “kinsman,” as elsewhere translated. So also in the Apocrypha (1Es_3:7; 1Es_4:42; Tob_6:10; 2Ma_11:1; 2Ma_11:35).
