Deacon Anglicized form of the Greek word diaconos ,
meaning a "
runner ,"
"
messenger ," "
servant ."
For a long period a feeling of mutual jealousy had existed between the "
Hebrews ,"
or Jews proper ,
who spoke the sacred language of palestine ,
and the "
Hellenists ,"
or Jews of the Grecian speech ,
who had adopted the Grecian language ,
and read the Septuagint version of the Bible instead of the Hebrew .
This jealousy early appeared in the Christian community .
It was alleged by the Hellenists that their widows were overlooked in the daily distribution of alms .
This spirit must be checked .
The apostles accordingly advised the disciples to look out for seven men of good report ,
full of the Holy Ghost ,
and men of practical wisdom ,
who should take entire charge of this distribution ,
leaving them free to devote themselves entirely to the spiritual functions of their office (
Acts 6 :
1 -
6 ).
This was accordingly done .
Seven men were chosen ,
who appear from their names to have been Hellenists .
The name "
deacon "
is nowhere applied to them in the New Testament ;
they are simply called "
the seven " (
21 :
8 ).
Their office was at first secular ,
but it afterwards became also spiritual ;
for among other qualifications they must also be "
apt to teach " (
1 Tim .
3 :
8 -
12 ).
Both Philip and Stephen ,
who were of "
the seven ,"
preached ;
they did "
the work of evangelists ."
