Kingdom of God, or "Kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 3:2),[1] is a popular, but debatable, translation of an oft-used phrase used in the New Testament based on the Greek term "βασιλεία" (invoked 163 times). Strong's number for this is 932, and says its meaning is kingdom, sovereignty, or royal power,[2] when "reign" or "dominion" might be more accurate. But Strong's was biased towards an Anglophile approach.
Alternative possible translations for this phrase (please improve or expand):
- reign of God (used by Young's Literal Translation for Mark 1:15)
- infinity, or infinite time, or infinite happiness
- paradise
