Lady la'-di: This word should be taken in the sense of "mistress" in Isaiah 47:5, Isaiah 47:7 (Hebrew gebhereth) (so the American Standard Revised Version). In Judges 5:29; Eat Judges 1:18 it is the translation of another Hebrew word (sarah), best rendered "princess" (so the Revised Version (British and American) in Esther, but not in Judges). In 2 John 1:1, John 1:5 it is the translation of kuria, which some interpreters regard as a proper name.

See CYRIA, JOHN, THE EPISTLES OF, ELECT LADY.
