解釋/意思:

n. a solemn ecclesiastical curse or denunciation involving excommunication: any person or thing anathematised: generally any imprecation or expression of execration.—n. Anathematisā′tion—v.t. Anath′ematise to pronounce accursed.—Anathema maranātha as in 1 Cor. xvi. 22; maranatha (Syr. māran ethā 'our Lord hath come') is properly a mere solemn formula of confirmation like Amen having no other connection with the antecedent anathema—it is so printed in the Revised Version.—It seems to have been used by the early Christians as a kind of watchword of mutual encouragement and hope. So the words in 1 Cor. xvi. 22 are nearly equivalent to the similar expressions in Phil. iv. 5; Rev. xxii. 20.
