a The Greek verb for “bring good news,” or “evangelize,” (eu·ag·ge·liʹzo·mai) came to stand for the Hebrew word rendered ‘bring good news’ (bis·sarʹ) in Isaiah 52:7. The verb bis·sarʹ here means “to herald Yahweh’s universal victory over the world and his kingly rule” and the dawn of a new age, states The New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology.—Compare Nahum 1:15, New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures—With References, footnote.
