DISCIPLINE WHAT IS DISCIPLINE? Webster: "1. A branch of knowledge or learning. 2. training that develops self-control, character, or orderliness and efficiency; 3. The result of such training; self-control; orderly conduct. 4. Acceptance of our submission to authority and control. 5. A system of rules or methods, as for the conduct of members of a monastic order. 6. Treatment that corrects or punishes. 1. To subject to discipline; train; control. 2. to punish." Under synonyms Webster suggest that punish carries the idea of retribution and discipline suggest punishment that is meant to control or establish habits of self-control.

DISCIPLINE WHAT IS DISCIPLINE? The English word is used one time in the King James Version, in Job 36:10, but the idea is found often in the Bible. The Hebrew expression is (Musar from Vasar) which means chastisement or instruction Prov 3:11,12; 13:24; 22:15; 23:13,14; Job 5:17; Psa 94:12 The Greek equivalent is PAIDEIA which means: "1. the whole training and education of children (which relates to the cultivation of mind and morals, and employs for this purpose commands and admonitions, reproof and punishment): 2. whatever in adults also cultivates the soul, esp. by correcting mistakes and curbing the passions; hence (a) instruction which aim at the increase of virtue: 2Tim 3:16. b) according to Biblical usage chastisement, chastening (of the evils with which God visits men for their amendment); Heb 12:5-11" Thayer
