"to flourish anew" (ana, "again, anew," thallo, "to flourish or blossom"), hence, "to revive," is used metaphorically in Philippians 4:10 , RV, "ye have revived (your thought for me)," AV, "(your care of me) hath flourished again." In the Sept., Psalm 28:7; Ezekiel 17:24; Hosea 8:9 .
"to live again" (ana, "and" zao, "to live"), "to regain life," is used of moral "revival," Luke 15:24 , "is alive again;" (b) of sin, Romans 7:9 , "revived," lit., "lived again" i.e., it sprang into activity, manifesting the evil inherent in it; here sin is personified, by way of contrast to the man himself. Some mss. have it in Romans 14:9 , for zao, as in the RV, which italicizes "again."
