Kaqexeß

Pronounced “Kath-ex-ACE”, it’s the Greek word Luke used in Luke 1:3 to describe the orderly account of his Gospel.  The word just means orderly, in an orderly sequence, or in succession.  Now you know a little Greek.

The posts in this blog are topical; whatever we find interesting gets posted, whenever.  Please use this page to study the information in an orderly sequence.
