The term "save" refers to keeping someone from experiencing something bad or harmful. To "be safe" means to be protected from harm or danger.

  • In a physical sense, people can be saved or rescued from harm, danger, or death.
  • In a spiritual sense, if a person has been "saved," then God, through Jesus' death on the cross, has forgiven him and rescued him from being punished in hell for his sin.
  • People can save or rescue people from danger, but only God can save people from being punished eternally for their sins.

Translation Suggestions:

  • Ways to translate "save" could include "deliver" or "keep from harm" or "take out of harm's way" or "keep from dying."
  • In the expression "whoever would save his life," the term "save" could also be translated as "preserve" or "protect."
  • The term "safe" could be translated as "protected from danger" or "in a place where nothing can harm."
