 "question": "What is the meaning of Parakletos, and the five pictures it brought to a Greek's mind?",
 "answer": "Parakletos comes from para ('beside') and kaleo ('to call') - one called alongside to help, comfort, and encourage. The related word parakaleo brought five vivid pictures to a Greek's mind: gently rekindling a dying flame, a frightened child crying out for a parent's comfort, calling a physician to bind a wound, an officer steadying frightened troops in the heat of battle, and the counsel for the defense pleading his client's case before the judge.",
