AI Summary

To love — to feel, hold, and show esteem, goodwill, and affection toward a person, or to prize and delight in a thing 1. The word is used of ordinary human affection, including love for one's neighbour or even one's enemies 1, love for Christ 1, and love for God 1; it is also used of God's love for people, of Christ's love for people, and of Christ's love for God 1. Beyond persons, it covers being fond of, prizing, or desiring a thing 13. Strong's gives the plain gloss "I love," in a social or moral sense, and suggests it may derive from a word meaning "much" 24. Abbott-Smith notes a view that this verb properly denotes a love grounded in esteem and reasoned commitment, distinct from the spontaneous, unreasoned natural affection expressed by the related verb φιλέω, so that it suits a love which, unlike mere feeling, can be commanded as a duty 1; LSJ similarly observes that in the Greek Old Testament and New Testament the word can imply regard for God or man rather than plain affection, though the two shade into one another 3.

In the Greek Old Testament the word can also mean to persuade or entreat someone 3, and can describe being content or well pleased, in the sense of being fond of or accustomed to doing something 3.

Abbott-Smith — the 1922 lexicon entry, in full

ἀγαπάω, -ῶ,

[in LXX chiefly for אהב;]

to love, to feel and exhibit esteem and goodwill to a person, to prize and delight in a thing.
1. Of human affection, to men: τ. πλησίον, Mt 5:43; τ. ἐχθρούς, ib. 44; to Christ, Jo 8:42; to God, Mt 22:37; c. acc. rei, Lk 11:43, Jo 12:43, Eph 5:25, II Tim 4:8, 10, He 1:9, I Pe 2:17, 3:10, II Pe 2:15, I Jo 2:15, Re 12:11.
2. Of divine love;
(a) God's love: to men, Ro 8:37; to Christ, Jo 3:35;
(b) Christ's love: to men, Mk 10:21; to God, Jo 14:31; c. cogn. acc., Jo 17:26, Eph 2:4.

SYN.: φιλέω. From its supposed etymology (Thayer, LS; but v. also Boisacq) ἀ. is commonly understood properly to denote love based on esteem (diligo), as distinct from that expressed by φιλέω (amo), spontaneous natural affection, emotional and unreasoning. If this distinction holds, ἀ. is fitly used in NT of Christian love to God and man, the spiritual affection which follows the direction of the will, and which, therefore, unlike that feeling which is instinctive and unreasoned, can be commanded as a duty. (Cf. ἀγάπη, and v. Tr., Syn. §xii; Cremer, 9, 592; and esp. MM, VGT, s.v.)
