Lexical notes

Verse 17

  • Dispensation of the gospel. The Greek word oikonomia (translated "dispensation of the gospel" here) means "household management" and has the same root as the Greek word for steward. Also, the Greek root word for "committed" here, pisteuo, has the meaning "trust" or "have faith in," which suggests a close relationship the phrase "household of faith" in Gal 6:10 and D&C 121:45 (cf. 1 Tim 1:4).
