James 5:7-10

^A “be patient” = makrothumeo. 10x in NT. From makros (long, far distant, long lasting) [from mekos (length); probably related to megas (big, great, large – literal and figurative] + thumos (passion, passionate outburst; actions driven by passion, impulse, or emotion; this is passion express and often refers to rage or venting personal anger) [from thuo (to rage, seethe, rush along, breath violently, get heated up]. This is to persevere, be patient, be longsuffering, forbearing. Properly, this is one who defers anger and will not retaliate through anger. This is the opposite of a quick-tempered person; it is a long-spirited one.

^C “coming” = parousia. From pareimi (to be present, to have come); from para (from beside, in the presence of) + eimi (to be). This is presence, arrival, coming, advent. Properly, this refers to the arrival of one who has authority or power to impact the local situation. So, it would be the visit of a king, dignitary or official. In the New Testament, this term is used particularly for the second coming of Christ. Parousia is used in English as a technical theological term.
^D “Lord” = kurios. From kuros (authority, supremacy). This is a respectful address meaning master or sir. It refers to one who has control or power greater than one’s own. So, it was also applied to God and Jesus as Master or Lord.

This is literally a land worker and so a farmer. This is where the name George comes from.
^G “waits” = ekdechomai. 7x in NT. From ek (from, from out of) + dechomai (to receive, take, accept, welcome; properly, to receive with hospitality; to receive literally or figuratively).

^N “hearts” = kardia. Literally the heart, but figuratively mind, character, inner self, will, intention, thoughts, feelings. Also, the center of something. The word heart is only used figuratively in the Old and New Testaments. This is where “cardiac” comes from.
