Original greek: monogenhvß
Transliterated greek: monogenes
Definition : single of its kind, only
                 used of only sons or daughters (viewed in relation to their parents)
                used of Christ, denotes the only begotten son of God  

the whole thing in bold here is the definition/meaning of the word "monogenes"! Don't only read half of it.

so yes - even in Greek, it means that.  Jesus is the only begotten son of God, and single of its kind.

You see, the reason the translator put the word single of its kind, is because the meaning is stronger than another two meanings..

In Greek, the word means Single Of it's kind...where as Jesus and God are not from one kind/medium...nothing to do with God at all:pray:

Where got other two meanings? The whole thing is one meaning. The three lines, put together, is the full meaning of the Greek Word "monogenes"

Definition : single of its kind, only
                 used of only sons or daughters (viewed in relation to their parents)
                used of Christ, denotes the only begotten son of God

In this case, the word "monogenes" only have one meaning. Not three.

If it is three different meanings, the dictionary would have numbered them, 1, 2, 3...

If it is three different meanings, it will be written like this, with numbers.
Take for example, the word "kosmos" which means "world". It can mean 7 different meanings, and the dictionary numbers them to show that it is 7 different meanings.

1. an apt and harmonious arrangement or constitution, order, government
2. ornament, decoration, adornment, i.e. the arrangement of the stars, 'the heavenly hosts', as the ornament of the heavens.
3. the world, the universe
4. the circle of the earth, the earth
5. the inhabitants of the earth, men, the human family
6. the ungodly multitude; the whole mass of men alienated from God, and therefore hostile to the cause of Christ
7. world affairs, the aggregate of things earthly
   the whole circle of earthly goods, endowments riches, advantages, pleasures, etc,
    which although hollow and frail and fleeting, stir desire, seduce from God and are obstacles to the cause of Christ

p/s: see for example, number 7: it has 3 lines, but the 3 lines is to explain one meaning.

Like i explained earlier, according to the Bible, Jesus is God - that is how and why Jesus can be "Single of its kind"...

Yes..i know..the reason they put three meanings under one word, because they are three meanings, but the reason they put which one is HIGHER, is to determine which one is the strongest meaning.The closest meaning.

So, Single of its kind is the strongest meaning.

Jesus is not same medium with God...so he is out for the strongest meaning. So, he is out for the most accurate meaning of the word begotten.When he is not in same medium with God, so he is not God.

you have not been reading my replies properly. Don't waste my time just because you don't read properly.

Read again my posts properly. There are NO three meanings for the Greek word monogenes. There is ONLY ONE meaning for that Greek word.no higher meaning, no lower meaning.

Read my posts above again properly and carefully.

Definition : single of its kind, only
                 used of only sons or daughters (viewed in relation to their parents)
                used of Christ, denotes the only begotten son of God


This whole thing here is to explain and illustrate ONLY ONE meaning, not three.

Here's a print screen from the Greek dictionary for you...

Like i said, there's ONLY ONE definition (there is no definition 2, 3.. etc). No higher, lower or more accurate or less accurate definition. There's ONLY ONE definition for the word "monogenes", which is "single of its kind"

But JESUS not the single of His Kind and those prophets begot by God also not SINGLE OF ITS KIND. The word begotten also used for the prophets, but why the translator say the word is just for Jesus?:geram:
