Due

"one's own," is applied to kairos, "a season," in Gal 6:9, "in due season," i.e., in the season Divinely appointed for the reaping. So in 1Ti 2:6, "the testimony to be borne in its own (AV, 'due') times (seasons);" 1Ti 6:15, "in its own (idios) times (seasons);" similarly in Tit 1:3. See BUSINESS, B.

Note: For axios, "the due reward," see REWARD, Note (1).

signifies "to owe, to be indebted," especially financially, Mat 18:30, RV, "that which was due;" Mat 18:34, "all that was due." See BEHOVE, BOUND (to be).

an impersonal verb signifying "it is necessary," is translated "was due" in Rom 1:27, RV (AV, "was meet"). See BEHOVE.

akin to B, No. 1, is rendered "dues" in Rom 13:7. In 1Co 7:3, RV, it is translated "her due" (the AV, "due benevolence" follows another reading).

Notes: (1) In the phrases "in due season" in Mat 24:45, Luk 12:42, Rom 5:6 (lit., "according to time"), and "in due time," 1Pe 5:6, there is no word representing "due" in the original, and the phrases are, lit., "in season," "in time."

(2) For the phrase "born out of due time," in 1Co 15:8, see BEGET, B, No. 2.
