The Kingdom of God or Reign of God (Greek: - Basileia tou Theou,Strong?s Greek Dictionary, webpage, retrieved June 24, 2006) is a foundational concept in Christianity, as it is the central theme of Jesus of Nazareths message in the synoptic Gospels. The phrase occurs in the New Testament more than 100 times,The exact phrase above occurs not at all in the Hebrew Bible and only once in the deuterocanonical/apocryphal Wisdom of Solomon (10:10) (John P. Meier, A Marginal Jew, v. 2, 1994, p.

248). and is defined almost entirely by parable. According to Jesus, the Kingdom of God is within peopleKingdom is within: "The kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, ?See here!? or ?See there!? For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you." , it is approached through understanding,Kingdom approached through understanding: "When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him "You are not far from the kingdom of God." and entered through acceptance like a child,Kingdom accepted like a child: "I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." spiritual rebirth,Kingdom entered through spiritual rebirth: "no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit" and doing the will of God.Kingdom entered through doing the will of God: "Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." It is a kingdom peopled by the righteousKingdom peopled by the righteous: "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God?" and stands in stark contrast to the only other kingdom available to people: the kingdom of Satan.Kingdom contrasts kingdom of Satan: "If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand?" English Translation of the TermIn the synoptic Gospels (which were written in Greek), Mark and Luke use the Greek term "Basileia tou Theou," commonly translated in English as "Kingdom of God," while Matthew prefers the Greek term "Basileia t?n Ouran?n" () which has been translated as "Kingdom of Heaven." Biblical scholars speculate that the Matthean text adopted the Greek word for "heaven" instead of the Greek word for "God" because, unlike Mark and Luke, it was written by a Jew for a Jewish audience so, in keeping with their custom, avoided using Gods name as an act of piety. In Matthew, "heaven" stands for "God." The basis for these terms being equivalent is found in the apocalyptic literature of Daniel 2:44 where "the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed."The word ?kingdom? is a translation of the Greek word ?basileia? which in turn is a translation of the words "malkuth" (Hebrew) and "malkutha" (Aramaic). These words do not define kingdom by territory but by dominion. Jesus said of the Kingdom of God that one cannot say, ?Look here it is!? or ?There it is!? .
