James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Quarrel


Subjects in this Topic:

QUARREL.—The original meaning of this Eng. word (from Lat. quereta) is a ‘complaint.’ This is its meaning in Col_3:13 AV [Note: Authorized Version.] ‘If any man have a quarrel against any.’ Then it came to mean any cause of complaint, or any case that had to be stated or defended, as Mar_6:19 ‘Herodias had a quarrel against him’: so Lev_26:25, 2Ki_5:7.
