Core Glossary
08 Core Glossary — 2 Timothy
This glossary lists every load-bearing theological term identified in 07_semantic_analysis.md, organized first by terms reused exactly from the baseline Romans translation memory, then by terms new to this curriculum, grouped by the seven named doctrines. All new-term risk tiers and Manipuri renderings are provisional pending theologian/native-speaker review, per the baseline’s escalation rules.

| Be ready, reprove, rebuke, exhort, with patience and teaching | ἐφίστημι, ἐλέγχω, ἐπιτιμάω, παρακαλέω, μακροθυμία, διδαχή | (compound, see analysis) | Medium–High (cluster) | Defines the pastoral method of preaching ministry | 4:2 |

| Godliness (form vs. power) | εὐσέβεια (eusebeia) | তেংবাং মপুদা ইকাইখুম্নবগী চৎনবী | High | Engages visible external devotional practice common to both live traditions | 3:5, 3:12 |

| Crown of righteousness | στέφανος τῆς δικαιοσύνης | অচুম্বা চৎনবিরাক্কী লুহোং | High | ”Crown”/লুহোং risks evoking Pakhangba-descent royal regalia; must be an athletic victor’s-wreath image and Christ’s personal gift, not dynastic symbol | 4:8 |
| The Lord will reward / repay | ἀποδίδωμι (apodidōmi) | মানবা পীবা | High | Must be personal, righteous-Judge recompense, not impersonal karmic cause-and-effect | 4:8, 4:14 |

Cross-Reference Note
Terms marked CRITICAL in Part B (θεόπνευστος, πᾶσα γραφή, ἔσχαται ἡμέραι, παραθήκη/παρατίθεμαι, ἐπιφάνεια) represent the five most theologically load-bearing new collision points this curriculum introduces beyond the Romans baseline, and should each receive a dedicated doctrine-risk-registry entry and mandatory human theologian review routing when this Language Package’s translation memory and doctrine risk registry are formally extended in the next Phase 1 step.
Critical Risk Terms
Grace
Approved rendering: মথৌ তাদনা পীবা তেংবাং
Transliteration: mathou tadana piba tengbang
Doctrine: Grace
Rejected alternatives: কৃপা (bhakti-responsive favor, avoid as primary term), পুণ্য (merit accumulated through devotional service/seva, never use)
Original: χάρις
Category: Salvation
Inherited from Romans package. In 2 Timothy 1:9, paired explicitly with God’s own purpose (‘not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace’) — this restates the baseline’s grace-versus-bhakti-responsive-favor argument at a new lexical location and must retain equal force here; see the ‘grace_and_gods_eternal_purpose’ doctrine entry.
Righteousness
Approved rendering: অচুম্বা চৎনবিরাক
Transliteration: achumba chatnabirak
Doctrine: Salvation
Rejected alternatives: ধর্ম (Hindu-derived cosmic/religious duty, avoid)
Original: δικαιοσύνη
Category: Salvation
Inherited from Romans package. Appears in 2:22 (pursue righteousness), 3:16 (training in righteousness), and 4:8 (crown of righteousness); the training and reward senses must never be re-read as merit that earns the forensic status itself.
Salvation
Approved rendering: অহানবা
Transliteration: ahanba
Doctrine: Salvation
Rejected alternatives: মোক্ষ (Vaishnava/Hindu liberation, never use), লাইনিং (devotional union/absorption, never use as a stand-alone gloss)
Original: σωτηρία
Category: Salvation
Inherited from Romans package. 2 Timothy 2:10 and 3:15 both tie salvation directly to faith in Christ Jesus and to Scripture’s purpose; never মোক্ষ or bhakti-devotional union with Krishna.
Resurrection
Approved rendering: সিবদগী হিংজত-লকপা
Transliteration: sibadagi hingjat-lakpa
Doctrine: Resurrection of Christ
Rejected alternatives: পুনর্জন্ম (rebirth/reincarnation, never use)
Original: ἀνάστασις
Category: Eschatology
Inherited from Romans package. Affirmed positively at 2:8 (echoing Romans 1:3-4) and denied by false teachers at 2:18 (‘the resurrection has already happened’) — this denial must be taught as a specific historical heresy, never used to validate পুনর্জন্ম rebirth categories.
Lord
Approved rendering: মপু ইবুংগো
Transliteration: Mapu Ibungo
Doctrine: Lordship of Christ
Rejected alternatives: ঠাকুর (Krishna-devotional title, never use)
Original: κύριος
Category: Christology
Inherited from Romans package. Pervasive throughout 2 Timothy (1:2, 1:8, 1:16, 1:18, 2:7, 2:19, 2:22, 2:24, 4:8, 4:14, 4:17, 4:18, 4:22); never ঠাকুর.
Holy Spirit
Approved rendering: থাওয়াই অসেংবা
Transliteration: Thawai Asengba
Doctrine: Sanctification
Rejected alternatives: bare থাওয়াই (never use alone), শক্তি (maibi’s oracular trance-power, never use)
Original: πνεῦμα ἅγιον
Category: God
Inherited from Romans package. Must always appear in full, especially at 1:14, where the Spirit is said to indwell and enable guarding of the entrusted deposit — a function that must never be reheard as a maibi’s trance-spirit guidance.
God
Approved rendering: তেংবাং মপু
Transliteration: Tengban Mapu
Doctrine: Deity of Christ
Rejected alternatives: ঠাকুর (Krishna-devotional title, avoid), সানামাহি (household/ancestral deity, never use as primary term)
Original: θεός
Category: God
Inherited from Romans package. Foundational to θεόπνευστος (God-breathed, 3:16); never ঠাকুর or সানামাহি.
Jesus
Approved rendering: জিসু
Transliteration: Jisu
Doctrine: Lordship of Christ
Original: Ἰησοῦς
Category: Christology
Inherited from Romans package.
Messiah
Approved rendering: ক্রিস্তো
Transliteration: Christo
Doctrine: Messianic Promise
Original: Χριστός
Category: Christology
Inherited from Romans package. Paired throughout with resurrection and seed-of-David language (2:8), directly echoing Romans 1:3-4; never one avatar among Vishnu’s recognized sequence.
God Breathed
Approved rendering: তেংবাং মপুদগী থাওয়াই পীরকপা
Transliteration: Tengban Mapudagi thawai pirakpa
Doctrine: Inspiration and Sufficiency of Scripture
Rejected alternatives: bare থাওয়াই without an explicit তেংবাং মপুদগী anchor, never use (risks maibi trance-spirit conflation and Apokpa/Umang Lai spirit associations), framing as interchangeable with Vaishnavism’s claim that the Bhagavad Gita is Krishna’s own direct speech, never use
Original: θεόπνευστος
Category: Scripture
NEW term (2 Timothy 3:16). থাওয়াই is populated in Sanamahi belief with ancestral (Apokpa) and Umang Lai spirit associations; must always appear anchored to তেংবাং মপুদগী. The 1729 Puya Meithaba burning of indigenous Meitei scripture makes claims of a text’s unique, providentially preserved divine origin a live, sensitive subject in Meitei cultural memory — teach pastorally, not triumphally. Provisional pending theologian review.
All Scripture
Approved rendering: লৈরিক পুম্নমক্ / অসেংবা লৈরিক পুম্নমক্
Transliteration: leirik pumnamak / asengba leirik pumnamak
Doctrine: Inspiration and Sufficiency of Scripture
Rejected alternatives: treating as one sacred-text tradition among several currently live and honored ones (Vaishnava scripture, Sanamahi Puya), never assume interchangeability
Original: πᾶσα γραφή
Category: Scripture
NEW term (2 Timothy 3:16), the doctrinal anchor for canonical uniqueness and sufficiency. Must be taught as a closed, uniquely authoritative corpus. Provisional pending theologian review.
Entrusted Deposit
Approved rendering: থমখিবা মথৌ
Transliteration: thamkhiba mathou
Doctrine: Faithful Transmission of the Gospel
Rejected alternatives: treating as a living, teacher-adaptable tradition analogous to guru-paramparā disciplic succession, rejected, treating as analogous to maiba/maibi oral ritual-knowledge transmission, rejected
Original: παραθήκη / παρατίθεμαι
Category: Transmission
NEW term (2 Timothy 1:12, 1:14, 2:2); the single most theologically important new collision point in this curriculum. Must be taught explicitly as a fixed, closed, already-complete deposit to be guarded unchanged and transmitted intact, at every occurrence. Provisional pending theologian review.
Last Days
Approved rendering: মখাগী নুমিৎশিং
Transliteration: makhagi numitshing
Doctrine: Apostasy and False Teachers in the Last Days
Rejected alternatives: assimilation into the Gaudiya Vaishnava Kali Yuga doctrine (a present age of decline within a recurring four-age cosmic cycle), never present as equivalent
Original: ἔσχαται ἡμέραι
Category: Eschatology
NEW term (2 Timothy 3:1); a genuinely new and specific collision not present in the Romans baseline. Paul’s ‘last days’ are the final, non-repeating stage of linear history moving toward Christ’s one return and one final judgment (4:1), never a stage within an endlessly recurring cosmic cycle. Flag for theologian review at every occurrence. Provisional pending theologian review.
Appearing
Approved rendering: উৎথোকপা
Transliteration: utthokpa
Doctrine: The Appearing (Epiphaneia) of Christ
Rejected alternatives: a recurring, festival-commemorated divine manifestation open to further instances (paralleling Krishna Janmashtami or the Ras Lila re-presentation of Krishna’s appearings), never present as equivalent
Original: ἐπιφάνεια
Category: Christology
NEW term (2 Timothy 1:10, 4:1, 4:8); a genuinely new collision not present in the Romans baseline. Must be taught as two unique, unrepeated historical events (Christ’s first coming in the flesh, and his one future return in judgment/glory). Provisional pending theologian review.
High Risk Terms
Gospel
Approved rendering: নুংঙাইবগী পাউ
Transliteration: nungngaibagi pao
Doctrine: Gospel
Original: εὐαγγέλιον
Category: Salvation
Inherited from Romans package. In 2 Timothy occurs bound to suffering (1:8, 2:9) and to the gospel’s unstoppable advance despite imprisonment (‘the word of God is not bound,’ 2:9); must remain distinct from festive announcements tied to the Vaishnava devotional calendar (Ras Lila, Krishna Janmashtami).
Faith
Approved rendering: থাজবা
Transliteration: thajaba
Doctrine: Faith
Rejected alternatives: ভক্তি (bhakti, too specific to Vaishnava devotional practice)
Original: πίστις
Category: Faith
Inherited from Romans package. Recurs throughout 2 Timothy (1:5, 1:13, 2:18, 2:22, 3:8, 3:10, 3:15, 4:7), including the household-transmission sense of 1:5 and the guarding-sense of 4:7 (‘kept the faith’); must remain distinct from bhakti at every occurrence.
Called
Approved rendering: কৌখিবা
Transliteration: koukhiba
Doctrine: Divine Calling
Original: κλητός / κλῆσις
Category: Salvation
Inherited from Romans package. 1:9 — God’s own holy calling given in Christ before the ages; must be distinguished from a maibi being ritually seized/called by an Umang Lai deity in Lai Haraoba trance.
Calling
Approved rendering: কৌবগী থৌদাং
Transliteration: koubagi thoudang
Doctrine: Divine Calling
Inherited from Romans package. Noun form kept structurally parallel to কৌখিবা (called), reused wherever 2 Timothy’s calling vocabulary occurs.
Holy
Approved rendering: অসেংবা
Transliteration: asengba
Doctrine: Sanctification
Rejected alternatives: শেংবা (ritual-purity sense only)
Original: ἅγιος
Category: Sanctification
Inherited from Romans package. Root of ‘holy calling’ (1:9) and ‘sacred/holy writings’ (3:15); conveys moral, relational set-apartness, not merely ritual purity.
Sanctification
Approved rendering: অসেংবা ওইহনবা
Transliteration: asengba oihanba
Doctrine: Sanctification
Original: ἁγιασμός (cf. 2:21 ἡγιασμένον)
Category: Sanctification
Inherited from Romans package. Applies to the ‘set apart’ (ἡγιασμένον) vessel of 2:21; distinct from ritual purification of vessels before Vaishnava temple worship or Lai Haraoba offerings.
Seed Of David
Approved rendering: দাউদগী চা-চাহি
Transliteration: Daudgi cha-chahi
Doctrine: Davidic Covenant
Original: σπέρμα Δαυίδ
Category: Covenant
Inherited from Romans package. 2 Timothy 2:8 directly echoes Romans 1:3-4; teach this reuse explicitly as a link between the two curricula’s Christological anchors.
Power Of God
Approved rendering: তেংবাং মপুগী পাংথোক-থেংনবা
Transliteration: Tengban Mapugi pangthok-thengnaba
Doctrine: Power of God for Salvation
Rejected alternatives: শক্তি (maibi trance-power / goddess-power, avoid)
Original: δύναμις θεοῦ
Category: God
Inherited from Romans package; reserved for the salvation-specific compound sense only. General occurrences of δύναμις in 2 Timothy (1:7, 3:5) use the plain term পাংথোকপা instead, to avoid overextending this reserved phrase.
Sin
Approved rendering: পাপ
Transliteration: pap
Doctrine: Universal Human Accountability
Original: ἁμαρτία
Category: Sin
Inherited from Romans package. 3:6 (‘women burdened with sins’); distinct from ritual impurity or karmic accounting.
Providence
Approved rendering: তেংবাং মপুগী থৌরাং
Transliteration: Tengban Mapugi thourang
Doctrine: Providence
Rejected alternatives: ৱাইফম (fate, never use)
Original: πρόνοια (cf. 1:9 πρόθεσις)
Category: God
Inherited from Romans package; applied here to 1:9’s πρόθεσις (‘according to his own purpose and grace, given us in Christ Jesus before the ages began’). Must never read as impersonal fate or karmic ordering; see the grace_and_gods_eternal_purpose doctrine entry.
Sacred Writings
Approved rendering: অসেংবা লৈরিক
Transliteration: asengba leirik
Doctrine: Inspiration and Sufficiency of Scripture
Rejected alternatives: equating with the Vaishnava scriptural corpus (Bhagavad Gita, Puranas, Bhagavata Purana) or the Sanamahi Puya texts as an equivalent sacred-text category, never use
Original: ἱερὰ γράμματα
Category: Scripture
NEW term (2 Timothy 3:15). Timothy’s OT Scripture upbringing from childhood; a distinct scripture-category term, not a claim that other Meitei sacred-text heritage is worthless.
Teaching Doctrine
Approved rendering: তম্বিরোন
Transliteration: tambiron
Doctrine: Guarding Sound Doctrine
Original: διδασκαλία / διδαχή
Category: Scripture
NEW term (2 Timothy 3:16, 4:2 as διδαχή near-synonym). Base noun for ‘sound doctrine’; must be distinguished from guru-paramparā teaching-authority claims and from a maiba’s traditional oral instruction.
Training In Righteousness
Approved rendering: অচুম্বা চৎনবিরাক্কী মতুংইন্না তমবিরকপা
Transliteration: achumba chatnabirakki matungina tambirakpa
Doctrine: Inspiration and Sufficiency of Scripture
Rejected alternatives: a performance-based ধর্ম-style discipline or bhakti sādhana regimen framing, never use
Original: παιδεία ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ
Category: Scripture
NEW term (2 Timothy 3:16), built on the fixed TM righteousness compound. Inherits Critical-adjacent sensitivity from righteousness itself; the formative/training sense must never collapse into merit-earning discipline.
Sound Doctrine
Approved rendering: ফজবা তম্বিরোন / ফজবা ৱারোল
Transliteration: fajaba tambiron / fajaba warol
Doctrine: Guarding Sound Doctrine
Rejected alternatives: treating as a generic ‘correct teaching’ claim any tradition could equally make (guru-paramparā, maiba ancestral knowledge), rejected
Original: ὑγιαίνουσα διδασκαλία / ὑγιαίνοντες λόγοι
Category: Doctrine
NEW term (2 Timothy 1:13, 4:3), doctrine-naming for Guarding Sound Doctrine. Must be anchored exclusively to the fixed apostolic deposit (see entrusted_deposit), never a generic quality-claim.
Rightly Handling The Word
Approved rendering: অচুম্বাগী ৱাহৈ চুম্না শীজিন্নবা
Transliteration: achumbagi wahei chumna shijinnaba

Transliteration: nungshibagi tengbang
Doctrine: Mercy of God Toward the Suffering and the Weak
Rejected alternatives: করুণা (Krishna’s compassionate response to a devotee within Manipuri Vaishnavism — the same collision risk already documented for grace’s rejected alternative কৃপা), never use as the primary term
