Vine's Expository Dictionary of NT Words
* Notes: (1) In Philippians 1:12,25 , AV, prokope, "a striking forward" (pro, "forward," kopto, "to cut"), is translated "furtherance;" "progress" in RV, as in 1 Timothy 4:15 . Originally the word was used of a pioneer cutting his way through brushwood. See PROGRESS. (2) In Philippians 1:5 the RV "(for your fellowship) in furtherance of the Gospel," and in Philippians 2:22 , "in furtherance of the Gospel," are, lit., "unto the Gospel." Copyright Statement
