rwp - Mightest

rwp@1Timothy:1:3 @{As I exhorted} (\kaths parekalesa\). There is an ellipse of the principal clause in verse 4| ({so do I now} not being in the Greek). {To tarry} (\prosmeinai\). First aorist active infinitive of \prosmen\, old verb, attributed by Luke to Paul in strkjv@Acts:13:43|. {That thou mightest charge} (\hina paraggeilis\). Subfinal clause with \hina\ and the first aorist active subjunctive of \paraggell\, old verb, to transmit a message along (\para\) from one to another. See strkjv@2Thessalonians:3:4,6,10|. Lock considers this idiom here an elliptical imperative like strkjv@Ephesians:4:29; strkjv@5:33|. {Certain men} (\tisin\). Dative case. Expressly vague (no names as in strkjv@1:20|), though Paul doubtless has certain persons in Ephesus in mind. {Not to teach a different doctrine} (\m heterodidaskalein\). Earliest known use of this compound like \kakodidaskalein\ of Clement of Rome. Only other N.T. example in strkjv@6:3|. Eusebius has \heterodidaskalos\. Same idea in strkjv@Galatians:1:6; strkjv@2Corinthians:11:4; strkjv@Romans:16:17|. Perhaps coined by Paul.

rwp@Romans:3:4 @{Let God be found true} (\ginesth ho theos alths\). "Let God continue to be true" (present middle imperative). {But every man a liar} (\ps de anthrpos pseusts\). The contrast in \de\ really means, "though every man be found a liar." Cf. strkjv@Psalms:116:12|. {As it is written} (\kaths gegraptai\). strkjv@Psalms:51:6|. {That thou mightest be justified} (\hops an dikaithis\). \Hops\ rather than the common \hina\ for purpose and \an\ with the first aorist passive subjunctive of \dikaio\. Used of God this verb here has to mean "declared righteous," not "made righteous." {Mightest prevail} (\nikseis\). Future active indicative with \hops\ of \nika\, to win a victory, though B L have \niksis\ (first aorist active subjunctive, the usual construction). {When thou comest into judgement} (\en ti krinesthai se\). "In the being judged as to thee" (present passive infinitive or, if taken as middle, "in the entering upon trial as to thee"). Common construction in the LXX from the Hebrew infinitive construct.
