This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

To preach (κηρύσσειν)

Originally, to discharge the duty of a herald (κήρυξ); hence to cry out, proclaim, (see on 2Pe 2:5). The standing expression in the New Testament for the proclamation of the Gospel; but confined to the primary announcement of the message and facts of salvation, and not including continuous instruction in the contents and connections of the message, which is expressed by διδάσκειν (to teach). Both words are used in Mat 4:23; Mat 9:35; Mat 11:1).
