Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909
A variant of ?lust? (see LUST), meaning ?to wish,? found in the King James Version of Mat_17:12 parallel Mar_9:13; Joh_3:8, as translation of θέλω, thélō, and in Jam_3:4 as translation of βούλομαι, boúlomai. The last case the English Revised Version has rendered ?will,? and the American Standard Revised Version has made the same change throughout. The word is obsolete in modern English, but Joh_3:8 is still used proverbially, ?The wind bloweth where it listeth.?
