Relating to or resembling the Boanerges, characterized by thunderous or vehement speech.
From Boanerges, Aramaic for 'Sons of Thunder' (Mark 3:17 in the Bible, referring to James and John). The biblical epithet evolved into an adjective describing powerful, thunder-like rhetoric.
Boanergean is one of the coolest biblical-origin words—Jesus literally nicknamed two of his disciples 'Sons of Thunder,' and now we have an adjective meaning 'thunderously eloquent,' connecting ancient scripture to modern persuasive speech!
