Excerpt from The Expositor's Greek Testament, Vol. 5 The appellation of the Dispersion is on the face of it a weightier argument, because Dispersion is a technical term and comprises in itself all the Jews who lived outside Palestine. Whatever its 1570 veuauee, the term is J ewish through and through, for it insists upon the First Cause of all such scattering and upon the central shrine from which the exiles are removed. The mere Greek spoke and thought of exiles as fugitives and had a collective term cjnryv}} to cor respond with the J ewish Scammpd. But the J ewish word recognises that those dispersed are placed here and there - as exiles, traders and what not - by God. J ewish as it is, this appellation is capable of extension to the new Israel and does not necessarily imply that the persons addressed were born J ews. Ultimately and fundamentally it does not denote privilege like the term I srael but rather penalty removal from the place which was traditionally associated with the visible presence of J ehovah. The writer may, perhaps, be taken to use it without a precise definition of a centre corresponding to the Holy Land of the J ew; but there is no valid ground for doubting that he could apply it to Gentiles, who were in the world and not of it by virtue of their faith in Christ. Situated as they were among um friendly friends these Gentile churches are collectively the new Dis persion.
