Context — Instructions for Christian Livinggenerated
Colossians 3:8 provides a clear directive from Paul to the Colossian believers, urging them to set aside harmful behaviors such as anger, malice, and slander. This instruction comes in the context of a broader teaching on how to live in a manner that reflects their new identity in Christ. Paul emphasizes the importance of shedding old habits that do not align with their faith, as further discussed in Colossians 3:5-9.

The Key Word — ἀπόθεσθε, apotithēmigenerated
The verb ἀποτίθημι is a second aorist middle imperative form, meaning 'to put off' or 'to lay aside.' This term is often used metaphorically to describe the act of renouncing negative behaviors or attitudes, similar to taking off old clothing.
In this context, Paul is commanding his audience to actively remove these negative traits from their lives, suggesting a deliberate choice to reject behaviors that are inconsistent with their new life in Christ.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'But now you must put aside all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.' This wording is consistent across several translations, including the KJV and ASV, which also emphasize the need to 'put off' these behaviors.
However, some translations differ in how they express the list of negative behaviors. For instance, the ASV uses 'railing' in place of 'slander,' while the BBE opts for 'bad feeling' instead of 'malice.'
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb in this verse is ἀπόθεσθε, do put off, which governs the entire clause. It is followed by a list of negative behaviors that are to be put aside, creating a clear directive for the audience.
The structure consists of a main clause followed by a series of noun phrases that enumerate the specific behaviors, emphasizing the comprehensive nature of Paul's instruction.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἀποτίθημι does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint but relates to the Hebrew word נוּחַ (H5117), meaning 'to rest' or 'to lay down.' This connection highlights the idea of putting aside burdens or negative traits.
While ἀποτίθημι is unique to the New Testament, the concept of laying aside negative behaviors is consistent with Old Testament teachings on moral conduct.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Colossians 3:8 instructs believers to remove negative traits like anger and slander from their lives. Paul emphasizes that these behaviors do not fit those who follow Christ, urging them to embrace a new way of living that reflects their faith.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Putting aside these behaviors means consciously deciding to reject and remove negative traits like anger and slander from one's life, aligning with the teachings of Christ.
Paul highlights these behaviors because they can harm relationships and hinder spiritual growth, contrasting with the love and unity expected in the Christian community.
Practically, one can put off these behaviors by being mindful of their actions, seeking accountability, and replacing negative thoughts with positive ones that reflect Christ's teachings.
This verse teaches that a true Christian identity involves shedding old habits and embracing a new way of life that reflects the character of Christ.

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Nunc autem deponite et vos omnia : iram, indignationem, malitiam, blasphemiam, turpem sermonem de ore vestro.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

νυνί is an emphatic form of νῦν, meaning 'now' or 'at this very moment.' It is primarily used with present tense verbs, but can also appear with past and future tenses. The New Testament references include several letters of Paul and the book of Acts, such as Romans 15:23 and Acts 22:1. There is some variation in how lexicons describe its usage, particularly regarding its application with different tenses.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

a conjunctive particle, marking the superaddition of a clause, whether in opposition or in continuation, to what has preceded, and it may be variously rendered but, on the other hand, and, also, now, etc.; καὶ δέ, when there is a special superaddition in continuation, too, yea, etc. It sometimes is found at the commencement of the apodosis of a sentence, Acts 11:17. It serves also to mark the resumption of an interrupted discourse, 2 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 2:6
δέ but: conjunctive Particle, with adversative force: it commonly answers to μέν, and may often be rendered by while, whereas, on the other hand, v. μέν:— but μέν is often omitted, δέ being used merely to pass on from one thing to another; ὣς Ἀχιλεὺς θάμβησεν, θάμβησαν δὲ καὶ ἄλλοι Il.; etc.; κινεῖ κραδίην κινεῖ δὲ χόλον Eur.
δέ is often redundant,
to introduce the apodosis, where it may be rendered by then, yet, εἰ δέ κε μὴ δώωσιν, ἐγὼ δέ κεν αὐτὸς ἕλωμαι if they will not give it, then I will take it, Il.; so at in Lat., si tu oblitus es, at Dii meminerint Catull.
to resume after interruption caused by a parenthesis, where it may be rendered by I say, now, so then, Hdt.
POSITION of δέ: properly second, being often put between the Art. and Subst., the prep. and case.

The Greek word ἀποτίθημι (i.e., *apotithemi*) means to put off or aside, often used in a metaphorical sense to indicate renouncing or laying aside something, such as garments or ethical behaviors. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts like Acts 7:58 and Romans 13:12, always in the middle voice, suggesting an action taken by oneself. The lexicons do not present significant disagreements on its meaning.
ἀπο-τίθημι,
[in LXX chiefly for נוּחַ hi.;]
to put off or aside; in NT always mid.,
to put off from oneself as a garment: τ. ἱμάτια, Ac 7:58; metaph., in ethical sense, to put of, lay aside: Ro 13:12, Eph 4:22, 25, Col 3:8, He 12:1, Ja 1:21, I Pe 2:1;
to stow away, put: ἐν τ. φυλακῇ (MM, s.v.), Mt 14:3.†
ἀπο-τίθημι : 2 aor. mid. ἀπεθέμην ; [fr. Hom. down]; to put off or aside; in the N. T. only mid. to put off from one’s self: τὰ ἱμάτια, Acts vii. 58 ; [to lay up or away, ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ (i. e. put), Mt. xiv. 3 L T Tr WH (so εἰς φυλακήν, Lev. xxiv. 12; Num. xv. 34; 2 Chr. xviii. 26; Polyb. 24, 8, 8; Diod. 4, 49, etc.)]; trop. those things are said to be put off or away which any one gives up, renounces: as τὰ ἔργα τοῦ σκότους, Ro. xiii. 12; — Eph. iv. 22 [οἵ W. 347 (325); B.274 (236) ], 25; Col. iii. 8; Jas. i. 21; 1 Pet. ii. 1; Heb. xii. 1 ; (τὴν ὀργήν, Plut. Coriol. 19; τὸν πλοῦτον, τὴν μαλακίαν, etc. Luc. dial. mort. 10, 8; τ. ἐλευθερίαν kx. παρρησίαν, ibid. 9, ete.).
ἀποτίθημι. The phrase of Mt 143 (LXX a/.) is found nearly in P Eleph 12 (B.C. 223-2) γεγράφαμεν . . . τῶι φυλακίτηι . .. ἀποθέσθαι αὐτοὺς εἰς THY φυλακήν. The label on a mummy, Preisigke 3553, has ἀποτεθ(ειμένη) following ἔνδον ἐστίν, ““ 15 enclosed within.” In P Flor II. 1252 (A.D. 254) τὰ ἀποτεθέντα γένη ἐν Φιλαγρίδι is “ the goods that were stored at P.” So P Ryl II. 125*4 (a.p. 28-9) τὰ ὑπὸ τῆς μητρός μου ἀποτεθειμένα ἐν πυξιδίῳ ἔτι ἀπὸ τοῦ ts [ἔτους) Καίσαρος͵ “certain articles deposited ina little box by my mother as far back as in the 16th year of Augustus” (Edd.). A weakening of the sense of the verb is seen in the fourth century P Oxy I. 120!%; παραμένοντά pot ἄχρις ἂν γνῶ πῶς τὰ κατ᾽ αἰμαὶ ἀποτίθαιται, ““ἴο stay with me until I know the position of my affairs”…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word πᾶς (i.e., *pas*) means 'all' or 'every' and appears in various forms, including masculine, feminine, and neuter. It is used in the New Testament to denote totality, as in 'all things' or 'every kind,' and can function as an adjective or pronoun. Notably, it can also imply 'the whole' when used with definite articles, as seen in verses like Matthew 28:18.

The Greek word ὀργή (orgē) means anger, wrath, or passion. It is derived from a root meaning to swell or teem, indicating an internal agitation. In the New Testament, it describes both human anger and the divine reaction against sin, appearing in verses like Mark 3:5 and Romans 1:18. Lexicons note that it differs from θυμός (thymos), which refers to a more transient emotional state.
Θυμός and ὀργή are found several times together in the N. T. (as at Rom. ii. 8; Ephes. iv. 31; Col. iii. 8; Rev. xix. 15); often also in the Septuagint (Ps. lxxvii. 49; Dan. iii. 13; Mic. v. 15), and often also in other Greek (Plato, Philebus, 47 6; Polybius, vi. 56. 11; Josephus, Antt. xx. 5. 3; Plutarch, De Coh. Ird, 2; Lucian, De Cal. 23); nor are they found only in the connexion of juxtaposition, but one made dependent on the other; thus θυμὸς τῆς ὀργῆς (Rev. xvi. 19; ef. Job iii. 17; Josh. vii. 26); while ὀργὴ θυμοῦ, not occurring in the N. T., is frequent in the Old (2 Chron. xxix. 10; Lam. i. 12; Isai. xxx. 27; Hos. xi.9). On one occasion in the Septuagint all the words of this group occur together (Jer. xxi. 5). When these words, after a considerable anterior history, came to settle down on the passion of anger, as the strongest of all passions, impulses, and desires (see…

an'-ger: In the Old Testament, the translation of several Hebrew words, especially of 'aph (lit. "nostril," "countenance"), which is used some 45 times of human, 177 times of Divine, anger (OHL). The word occurs rarely in the New Testament (Mr 3:5; Eph 4:31; Col 3:8; Re 14:10), its place being taken by the word "wrath" (see WRATH). As a translation of words denoting God's "anger," the English word is unfortunate so far as it may seem to imply selfish, malicious or vindictive personal feeling. The anger of God is the response of His holiness to outbreaking sin. Particularly when it culminates in action is it rightly called Has "wrath." The Old Testament doctrine of God's anger…
Anger
The emotion of instant displeasure on account of something evil that presents itself to our view. In itself it is an original susceptibility of our nature, just as love is, and is not necessarily sinful. It may, however, become sinful when causeless, or excessive, or protracted (Matt. 5:22; Eph. 4:26; Col. 3:8). As ascribed to God, it merely denotes his displeasure with sin and with sinners (Ps. 7:11).
A violent emotion of a painful nature, sometimes arising spontaneously upon just occasion, but usually characterized in the Bible as a great sin, Mt 5:22 Eph 4:31 Col 3:8. Even when just, our anger should be mitigated by a due consideration of the circumstances of the offence and the state of mind of the offender; of the folly and ill-results of this passion; of the claims of the gospel, and of our own need of forgiveness from others, but especially from God, Mt 6:15. Anger is in Scripture frequently attributed to God, Mt 7:11 28:20; not that he is liable to those violent emotions which this passion produces, but…

θυμός refers to a passionate state, often associated with anger or wrath. It is derived from the verb θύω, meaning to breathe hard or be heated. The term appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as in Romans 2:8 and Revelation 14:10, where it conveys strong emotional responses. Some lexicons note a distinction between θυμός and related terms like ὀργή, with θυμός indicating a more transient emotional outburst.
Θυμός and ὀργή are found several times together in the N. T. (as at Rom. ii. 8; Ephes. iv. 31; Col. iii. 8; Rev. xix. 15); often also in the Septuagint (Ps. lxxvii. 49; Dan. iii. 13; Mic. v. 15), and often also in other Greek (Plato, Philebus, 47 6; Polybius, vi. 56. 11; Josephus, Antt. xx. 5. 3; Plutarch, De Coh.

Job iii. 17; Josh. vii. 26); while ὀργὴ θυμοῦ, not occurring in the N. T., is frequent in the Old (2 Chron. xxix. 10; Lam. i. 12; Isai. xxx. 27; Hos. xi.9).

κακία (kakia) refers to badness or moral wickedness, contrasting with excellence. It encompasses concepts like depravity, malignity, and trouble, appearing in various New Testament passages such as Acts 8:22 and Romans 1:29. The term also has a broader usage in late Greek, indicating evil or misfortune, as noted in Matthew 6:34. Notably, the lexicons agree on its meanings without significant disagreement.
κακία, -as, ἡ, (kaxds), [fr. Theognis down], Sept. chiefly for }9, and ΠΡ; 1. malignity, malice, ill-will, desire toinjure: Ro.i. 29; Eph. iv. 31; Col. iii. 8; Tit. iii. $; Jas. i. 21; 1 Pet. ii. 1. 2. wickedness, depravity: 1 Co. v. 8 [ef. W. 120 (114)]; xiv. 20; Acts viii. 22 (ef. 21); wickedness that is not ashamed to break the laws, 1 Pet. ii. 16. 3. Hellenistically, evil, trouble: Mt. vi. 34 (as Amos iii. 6; [1 S. vi. 9]; Eccl. vii. 15 (14); xii. 1; Sir. xix. 6; 1 Mace. vii. 23, ete.).
κακία is used in P Petr II. 23(1)9 (Ptol.) ἰδ[όϊντες τὴν κακίαν τῶν ἡμῶν, apparently of the damage done to a crop of rye and barley by hail (?): cf. P Flor 11. 176% (A.D. 256) ἐκ τῆς τῶν σύκων κακίας. In P Petr II. 19(2)5 (Ptol.) διὰ τὴν ἐν[εστ]ῶσαν Ὁ κακίαν, the reference is to the *‘idleness ueqore| certain workmen. For the stronger meaning ‘‘ malice,” τε wickedness,” see P Rein 715 (B.c. 141?) διὰ πάση]ς ἡσυχίας εἶχον τῶι μηδεμίαν ἔννοιαν [κ]ακίας ἔχειν, “je restai complétement tranquille, n’ayant aucun soupgon qwil me cherchat malice” (Ed.), P Oxy VIII. 1101? (A.D. 367— 70) εἴτε ὑπὸ κακίας ἢ Kal ὑπὸ κακο[βουλεία]ς τῆς πρ[ο]αιρέσεως, ‘‘ whether from malice or from perversity of judgment ” (Ed.); also Pretsighe 4127® ἀλότριον ἐμαυτὸν ἐποιησάμην πάσης κακείας kal wdo[ys. .

The Greek word βλασφημία (i.e., *blasphemia*) refers to slander or abusive speech, particularly against God, known as blasphemy. It is derived from βλάσφημος and encompasses a range of derogatory expressions, including defamation and irreverent remarks.

The Greek word αἰσχρολογία (i.e., aischrologia) is formed from αἰσχρός (vile) and λέγω (to speak). It refers to abusive or obscene language, covering terms like foul speech and filthy communication. The New Testament uses it in Colossians 3:8, where it emphasizes the need to avoid such language.
Aut these designate sins of the tongue, but with a difference. Mwpodoyia, employed by Aristotle (Hist. Anim. i. 11), but of rare use till the later Greek, is rendered well in the Vulgate, on the one occasion of its occurrence (Ephes. v. 4), by ‘stultiloquium,’ a word which Plautus may have coined (Mil. Glor. 11. 8. 25) ; although one which did not find more favour and currency in the after language of Rome, than did the ‘ stultiloquy’ which Jeremy Taylor sought to introduce among ourselves. Not merely the πᾶν ῥῆμα ἀργόν of our Lord (Matt. xii. 36), but in good part also the πᾶς λόγος campos of his Apostle (Ephes. iv. 29), will be included in it; discourse, as everything else in the Christian, needing to be seasoned with the salt of grace, and being in danger of growing first insipid, and then corrupt, without it.

One of the distinguishing gifts of God to man, essential to all high enjoyment and improvement in social life, and to be prized and used in a manner worthy of its priceless value for the glory of God and the benefit of mankind. The original language was not the growth of a mere faculty of speech in man, but a creation of gift of God. Adam and Eve when created knew how to converse with each other and with the Creator. For some two thousand years, "the whole earth was of one language and of one speech," Ge 11:1. But about one hundred years after the flood, according to the common chronology, and later according to others, God miraculously "confounded the language" of the Cushite rebels at Babel; and peopling the earth by these scattered families of diverse tongues, He frustrated the designs and promoted his own. There are now several…

Prep — Prepositionpreposition — its sense depends on the case of the word it governs.
PREP PREPosition
ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.
Lamentations 3:1.
The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word στόμα (i.e., *stoma*) means 'mouth' and is used both literally and figuratively. It refers to the mouth of humans and animals, as well as metaphorically for speech and communication. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts related to speech, such as 'face to face' conversations, and also describes the edge of a weapon. The lexicons do not present significant disagreements regarding its meanings.
