In the context of the Bible, it is used to refer to events, actions, or conditions that have occurred in the past. While the word itself may not appear frequently in modern translations, its concept is integral to understanding the continuity and progression of biblical narratives and teachings.<br><br><b>Biblical Usage and Context</b><br><br>In the Berean Standard Bible , the concept of "heretofore" is often conveyed through phrases like "in times past," "formerly," or "before now." These expressions are used to highlight God's past actions, the history of Israel, or the previous state of individuals before a transformative event or divine intervention.<br><br>1. <b>God's Faithfulness and Covenant</b>: The Bible frequently recounts God's past dealings with His people to remind them of His faithfulness and the enduring nature of His covenant. For instance, in <a href="/deuteronomy/4-32.htm">Deuteronomy 4:32-34</a>, Moses urges the Israelites to consider the unprecedented acts of God "from the day that God created man on the earth" and how He delivered them from Egypt. This reflection on past events serves to strengthen their faith and commitment to God's commandments.<br><br>2. <b>Transformation and Redemption</b>: The concept of "heretofore" is also significant in illustrating the transformation of individuals and communities. In <a href="/ephesians/2-11.htm">Ephesians 2:11-13</a>, Paul reminds the Gentile believers of their former state "at that time" when they were "separate from Christ" and "foreigners to the covenants of the promise." This contrast with their current status as members of God's household underscores the redemptive work of Christ.<br><br>3. <b>Prophetic Fulfillment</b>: The Bible often refers to past prophecies and their fulfillment as a testament to God's sovereignty and the reliability of His word. In <a href="/matthew/1-22.htm">Matthew 1:22-23</a>, the birth of Jesus is presented as the fulfillment of what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet Isaiah, emphasizing the continuity of God's plan from "heretofore" to the present.<br><br>4. <b>Human Condition and Sin</b>: The Scriptures also use the concept of "heretofore" to describe the previous sinful state of humanity. In <a href="/romans/11-30.htm">Romans 11:30</a>, Paul speaks of the Gentiles who "formerly disobeyed God" but have now received mercy. This acknowledgment of past disobedience highlights the transformative power of God's grace.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>Understanding the concept of "heretofore" in the Bible is crucial for grasping the continuity of God's redemptive history. It serves as a reminder of God's unchanging nature and His ongoing work in the world. By reflecting on past events, believers are encouraged to trust in God's promises and remain faithful to His commandments.<br><br>The use of "heretofore" also emphasizes the transformative power of God's intervention in the lives of individuals and communities. It highlights the contrast between the old and new, the past and present, underscoring the hope and renewal found in a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(<I>adv.</I>) Up to this time; hitherto; before; in time past.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">HERETOFORE</span><p>her-too-for', Hebrew temol, "yesterday," "neither heretofore, nor since" (<a href="/exodus/4-10.htm">Exodus 4:10</a>; compare <a href="/exodus/5-7.htm">Exodus 5:7, 8, 14</a> <a href="/joshua/3-4.htm">Joshua 3:4</a> <a href="/ruth/2-11.htm">Ruth 2:11</a>); 'ethmol shilshom, "yesterday," "third day" (<a href="/1_samuel/4-7.htm">1 Samuel 4:7</a>, "There hath not been such a thing heretofore.")<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/4258.htm"><span class="l">4258. proamartano -- to sin before</span></a> <br><b>...</b> sin already, <b>heretofore</b> sin.
