    Right, Rightly

    A — 1: ἐξουσία
    (Strong's #1849 — Noun Feminine — exousia — ex-oo-see'-ah )
    VED-NT Right, Rightly.2

    "authority, power," is translated "right" in the RV, for AV, "power," in John 1:12 ; Romans 9:21 ; 1 Corinthians 9:4, 5, 6, 12 (twice),18; 2 Thessalonians 3:9 , where the "right" is that of being maintained by those among whom the ministers of the gospel had labored, a "right" possessed in virtue of the "authority" given them by Christ, Hebrews 13:10 ; Revelation 22:14 .VED-NT Right, Rightly.3

    Exousia first denotes "freedom to act" and then "authority for the action." This is first true of God, Acts 1:7 . It was exercised by the Son of God, as from, and in conjunction with, the Father when the Lord was upon earth, in the days of His flesh, Matthew 9:6 ; John 10:18 , as well as in resurrection, Matthew 28:18 ; John 17:2 . All others hold their freedom to act from God (though some of them have abused it), whether angels, Ephesians 1:21 , or human potentates, Romans 13:1 . Satan offered to delegate his authority over earthly kingdoms to Christ, Luke 4:6 , who, though conscious of His "right" to it, refused, awaiting the Divinely appointed time.

    Righteousness

    1: δικαιοσύνη
    (Strong's #1343 — Noun Feminine — dikaiosune — dik-ah-yos-oo'-nay )
    VED-NT Righteousness.2

    is "the character or quality of being right or just;" it was formerly spelled "rightwiseness," which clearly expresses the meaning. It is used to denote an attribute of God, e.g., Romans 3:5 , the context of which shows that "the righteousness of God" means essentially the same as His faithfulness, or truthfulness, that which is consistent with His own nature and promises; Romans 3:25, 26 speaks of His "righteousness" as exhibited in the Death of Christ, which is sufficient to show men that God is neither indifferent to sin nor regards it lightly. On the contrary, it demonstrates that quality of holiness in Him which must find expression in His condemnation of sin.VED-NT Righteousness.3

    "Dikaiosune is found in the sayings of the Lord Jesus, (a) of whatever is right or just in itself, whatever conforms to the revealed will of God, Matthew 5:6, 10, 20 ; John 16:8, 10 ; (b) whatever has been appointed by God to be acknowledged and obeyed by man. Matthew 3:15 ; Matthew 21:32 ; (c) the sum total of the requirements of God, Matthew 6:33 ; (d) religious duties, Matthew 6:1 (distinguished as almsgiving, man's duty to his neighbor, Matthew 6:2-4 , prayer, his duty to God, Matthew 6:5-15 , fasting, the duty of self-control, Matthew 6:16-18 ).VED-NT Righteousness.4

    "In the preaching of the Apostles recorded in Acts the word has the same general meaning. So also in James 1:20 ; James 3:18 , in both Epp. of Peter, 1st John and the Revelation. In 2 Peter 1:1 , 'the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ,' is the righteous dealing of God with sin and with sinners on the ground of the Death of Christ. 'Word of righteousness,' Hebrews 5:13 , is probably the gospel, and the Scriptures as containing the gospel, wherein is declared the righteousness of God in all its aspects.VED-NT Righteousness.5

    "This meaning of dikaiosune, right action, is frequent also in Paul's writings, as in all five of its occurrences in Romans 6 ; Ephesians 6:14 , etc. But for the most part he uses it of that gracious gift of God to men whereby all who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ are brought into right relationship with God. This righteousness is unattainable by obedience to any law, or by any merit of man's own, or any other condition than that of faith in Christ ... The man who trusts in Christ becomes 'the righteousness of God in Him,' 2 Corinthians 5:21 , i.e., becomes in Christ all that God requires a man to be, all that he could never be in himself. Because Abraham accepted the Word of God, making it his own by that act of the mind and spirit which is called faith, and, as the sequel showed, submitting himself to its control, therefore God accepted him as one who fulfilled the whole of His requirements, Romans 4:3 . ...VED-NT Righteousness.6

    "Righteousness is not said to be imputed to the believer save in the sense that faith is imputed ("reckoned' is the better word) for righteousness. It is clear that in Romans 4:6, 11 , 'righteousness reckoned' must be understood in the light of the context, 'faith reckoned for righteousness,' Romans 4:3, 5, 9, 22 . 'For' in these places is eis, which does not mean 'instead of,' but 'with a view to.' The faith thus exercised brings the soul into vital union with God in Christ, and inevitably produces righteousness of life, that is, conformity to the will of God." * [* From Notes on Galatians, by Hogg and Vine, pp. 246,247.]VED-NT Righteousness.7

In the NT it is used in Ephesians 6:12 , "the world rulers (of this darkness)," RV, AV, "the rulers (of the darkness) of this world."

Thessalonica was a "free" city and the citizens could choose their own politarchs. The accuracy of Luke has been vindicated by the use of the term, for while classical authors use the terms poliarchos and politarchos of similar "rulers," the form used by Luke is supported by inscriptions discovered at Thessalonica, one of which mentions Sosipater, Secundus, and Gaius among the politarchs, names occurring as those of Paul's companions. Prof. Burton of Chicago, in a paper on "The Politarchs," has recorded 17 inscriptions which attest their existence, thirteen of which belong to Macedonia and five presumably to Thessalonica itself, illustrating the influence of Rome in the municipal organization of the place.VED-NT Ruler.9
