English Translation
This decision is final.
I have been told that in Greek there is considerable overlap between the meanings of the words complete, final, perfect, finished. Jesus’s final words as He died on the cross included the ancient Greek verb “Τετέλεσται”. This is a passive form of the ancient Greek verb τελέω which has the following meanings to bring about, complete, fulfill
to perform, accomplish, do
to keep one’s word
to pay, present (especially pay taxes)
to belong to a class
to consecrate, initiate
