dek -la -rā´shun , dē̇klâr ´: "Declare" is the translation of a variety of Hebrew and Greek words in the Old Testament and New Testament, appearing to bear uniformly the meaning "to make known," "set forth," rather than (the older meaning) "to explain" (Deuteronomy 1:5 ). Declaration ( Esther 10:2 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "full account"; Job 13:17; Ecclesiasticus 43:6; Lk 11 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "narrative"; 2 Corinthians 8:19 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "to show") has the like meaning.
