RIGHTEOUSNESS
1. dikaiosune (δικαιοσύνη, 1343) is “the character or quality of being right or just”; it was formerly spelled “rightwiseness,” which clearly expresses the meaning.
It is used to denote an attribute of God, e.g., Rom.
3:5, the context of which shows that “the righteousness of God” means essentially the same as His faithfulness, or truthfulness, that which is consistent with His own nature and promises; Rom.
3:25, 26 speaks of His “righteousness” as exhibited in the death of Christ, which is sufficient to show men that God is neither indifferent to sin nor regards it lightly.
On the contrary, it demonstrates that quality of holiness in Him which must find expression in His condemnation of sin.
“Dikaiosune is found in the sayings of the Lord Jesus, (a) of whatever is right or just in itself, whatever conforms to the revealed will of God, Matt.
5:6, 10, 20; John 16:8, 10; (b) whatever has been appointed by God to be acknowledged and obeyed by man, Matt.
3:15; 21:32; (c) the sum total of the requirements of God, Matt.
6:33; (d) religious duties, Matt.
6:1 (distinguished as almsgiving, man’s duty to his neighbor, vv.
2-4, prayer, his duty to God, vv.
5-15, fasting, the duty of self-control, vv.
16–18).
