RENEW

re-nu': The word is used in various senses:

(1) of material things, e.g. Psalm 104:30; here it means to give a new appearance, to refresh, to restore the face of the earth;

(2) in 1 Samuel 11:14, to establish more firmly the kingdom by reinstalling King Saul;

(3) in 2 Chronicles 15:8, to rebuild or repair the broken altar;

(4) in Lamentations 5:21, "renew our days," restore the favors of former days;

(5) in Isaiah 41:1, `let them gather together, or marshal their strongest arguments for answer';

(6) in Psalm 103:5 Isaiah 40:31, it refers to the restoring of spiritual strength;

(7) in the New Testament it invariably refers to spiritual renewal, e.g. Romans 12:2 2 Corinthians 4:16; Ephesians 4:23 Colossians 3:10 Titus 3:5 Hebrews 6:6; all derivatives of kainos, "new."
