(2) In Gal 2:10, spoudazo, "to be zealous," is so rendered in the RV (AV, "I was forward"). (3) In 2Co 8:17, the corresponding adjective spoudaios, "earnest," is so rendered in the RV (AV, "forward"). So in 2Co 8:8, the noun spoude, "earnestness," is thus rendered in the RV (AV, "forwardness"). (4) In 2Co 9:2, RV, the noun prothumia, "readiness" (pro, "before," thumos, "impulse"), is so rendered (AV, "forwardness of mind").
