Cognate: 2128 eulogētós (the root of the English terms, "eulogize, eulogy," see 2127 /eulogéō) – properly, "speak well of"; to celebrate by praising.

2128 /eulogētós ("blessed") is only used of God the Father and Christ (God the Son), showing the Godhead is worthy of all our commitment. Indeed, only God is inherently praiseworthy, deserving every "good acknowledgment"!

[The suffix (-tos) shows that the focus of 2128 (eulogētós) is on the intrinsic make-up of the person who is eulogized.]
