57.134 · Possess, Transfer, Exchange · Receive

one who also receives, receiver, fellow heir one who receives a possession together with someone else It is essential in rendering κληρονόμος (57.133) or συγκληρονόμος to avoid any implication of being an ‘heir’ to anyone who has died. The focus is upon receiving an unearned gift. In the biblical sense ‘heirs of God’ are those who will receive the blessings that God has for his people.
