(Strong's #5513 — Adjective — chliaros — khlee-ar-os' )

"tepid, warm" (akin to chlio, "to become warm," not found in the NT or Sept.), is used metaphorically in Revelation 3:16 , of the state of the Laodicean church, which afforded no refreshment to the Lord, such as is ministered naturally by either cold or hot water.
