The Gathering of God's People.
In the Old Testament the word 'congregation' refers exclusively
to the nation of Israel, God's people who had been brought
out of Egypt and assembled by God in the wilderness.
In the New Testament, the corresponding Greek word is ekklesia
but in most English versions this word is translated as 'church'
(the exception being Young's Literal Translation). Ekklesia
should more accurately be translated 'congregation', or 'assembly'.
(See CHURCH).
