There is no truth in the rumour that I love computers , it 's

Terry Pratchett
What did you expect in a computing dictionary ?]
2007 -05 -11 )Love This word seems to require explanation only in the case of its use by our Lord in his interview with "
Simon ,
the son of Jonas ,"
after his resurrection (
John 21 :
16 ,
17 ).
When our Lord says ,
"
Lovest thou me ?"
he uses the Greek word _agapas_ ;
and when Simon answers ,
he uses the Greek word _philo_ ,
i .
e ., "
I love ."
This is the usage in the first and second questions put by our Lord ;
but in the third our Lord uses Simon '
s word .
The distinction between these two Greek words is thus fitly described by Trench :, "
_Agapan_ has more of judgment and deliberate choice ;
_philein_ has more of attachment and peculiar personal affection .
Thus the '
Lovest thou ' (
Gr .
agapas )
on the lips of the Lord seems to Peter at this moment too cold a word ,
as though his Lord were keeping him at a distance ,
or at least not inviting him to draw near ,
as in the passionate yearning of his heart he desired now to do .
Therefore he puts by the word and substitutes his own stronger '
I love ' (
Gr .
philo )
in its room .
A second time he does the same .
And now he has conquered ;
for when the Lord demands a third time whether he loves him ,
he does it in the word which alone will satisfy Peter ('
Lovest thou ,'
Gr .
phileis ),
which alone claims from him that personal attachment and affection with which indeed he knows that his heart is full ."
In 1 Cor .
13 the apostle sets forth the excellency of love ,
as the word "
charity "
there is rendered in the Revised Version .
