πλήρ-ωμα G4138
fullness (divine/abstract); that which fills (physical contents); fulfillment (of law/obligation)
3. fulfillment (of law/obligation) — The fulfillment or complete satisfaction of a requirement, especially the law. In Rom 13:10 Paul declares love is the 'fulfillment' (plērōma) of the law, meaning the complete realization of what the law demands. Spanish gloss 'cumplimiento' and Arabic 'kamal' both point to completion/perfection rather than physical filling, distinguishing this from the container or divine-fullness senses. 1×
