Counsel Counsellor (ISBE)
DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD
koun´sel , koun´selẽr ( συμβούλιον , sumboúlion ): Ordinarily found as object of verb "to take" or "to give," expressing, beside the idea of a practical end to be reached, that of consultation and deliberation among those united in a common cause (Matthew 12:14; Mark 3:6 ). A counselor (súmboulos ) is a confidential adviser (Romans 11:34 ); often in the Old Testament (Isaiah 9:6; Proverbs 24:6 , etc.). Confounded in the King James Version with "councillor" (see above), the latter being an official adviser, which the former does not necessarily mean.
