(Strong's #1092 — Noun Masculine — georgos — gheh-ore-gos' )

from ge, "land, ground," and ergo (or erdo), "to do" (Eng., "George"), denotes (a) "a husbandman," a tiller of the ground, 2 Timothy 2:6; James 5:7; (b) "a vine-dresser," Matthew 21:33-35,38,40,41; Mark 12:1,2,7,9; Luke 20:9,10,14,16; John 15:1 , where Christ speaks of the Father as the "Husbandman," Himself as the Vine, His disciples as the branches, the object being to bear much fruit, life in Christ producing the fruit of the Spirit, i.e., character and ways in conformity to Christ.
