Hi
I suggest that you organize your questions. It is difficult for us to understand your questions.Here is my version of the same question:

Hello
I have some undestanding with the word: equal. Could any native speaker ~~help to~~ provide some suggestions?

1.Women deserve equal pay and to work on equal terms with men.
Here, equal pay = the pay is equal with / as / to men

2. Bill is equal to the task of running the ofice.
Here, the 'to' = unto / towards / reaching as far as the degree of the task

3. "on equal terms" = on terms that are equal as / with / to each other

~~LUKE 20:36~~ What is this??

4. NEITHER can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels. Does it mean "are equal reaching as far as the degree of the angels"?

~~GENESIS 44:18~~ What is this??

AND let not thine anger burn against thy servant: for thou art even as Pharaoh.
Here, does it mean "are equal with / as / to Pharaoh" ?

Thank you for your help.

I am not a native, but I will help.

1. Here, equal pay = the pay equal to that of men's.

2. Bill has the same dignity/status to that of the person running the office.

3. ON EQUAL TERMS= with the same advantages and disadvantages.
In that test, the robot and the human were on equal terms.

4. UNTO IS AN ARCHAIC TERM FOR TO.
NEITHER can they die any more: for they are equal TO the angels.
I suppose you understand this now.

5. equal to the Pharoah.

Hello  Prajwalker,Thank your for your suggestion. It is very useful for us.You know the preposition has two directions that quality presents a very deep trouble unto / with me.{to} / {unto} that is a good way in which I can make sense of them clear.I have to make them to form useful code.
