CONCORD enlist
rwp@John:7:32 @{The Pharisees} (\hoi Pharisaioi\). This group of the Jewish rulers (7:11,15,25f.|) was particularly hostile to Christ, though already the Sadducees had become critical (Matthew:16:6|) and they join here (\hoi archiereis\, the chief priests being Sadducees) in determining to silence Jesus by bringing him before the Sanhedrin. They had heard the whispered talk about Jesus before he arrived (7:12f.|) and still more now. {Heard the multitude murmuring} (\kousan tou ochlou gogguzontos\). First aorist active indicative of \akou\ with the genitive case and the descriptive participle of the vivid onomatopoetic verb \gogguz\ (verse 12|) now grown louder like the hum of bees. It was the defence of Jesus by a portion of the crowd (7:31|)...take the initiative and enlist the...(for this combination see strkjv@7:45; strkjv@11:47,57; strkjv@Matthew:21:45; strkjv@27:62|, the organized court) to send "officers" (\hupretas\) "to take him" (\hina piassin auton\, final clause with \hina\ and first aorist active subjunctive of \piaz\ for which verb see verse 30|). For \hupretas\ (temple police here) see verse 45; strkjv@18:3,12,22; strkjv@19:6; strkjv@Acts:5:22,26|. For the word see strkjv@Matthew:5:25; strkjv@Luke:1:2|, "an under rower" (\hupo, erets\), any assistant.
rwp@Matthew:27:19 @{His wife} (\h gun autou\)...he was trying to enlist the...(\ti dikaii ekeini\) and her psychical sufferings increased Pilate's superstitious fears. Tradition names her Procla and even calls her a Christian which is not probable. But it was enough to unnerve the weak Pilate as he sat on the judgment-seat (\epi tou bmatos\) up over the pavement.
rwp@Philemon:1:23 @{Epaphras} (\Epaphrs\)...come to Rome to enlist Paul's...{My fellow-prisoner} (\ho sunaichmaltos mou\). See on ¯Romans:16:7| for this word, also in strkjv@Colossians:4:10|. Used metaphorically like the verb \aichmaltiz\ in strkjv@2Corinthians:10:5|, though some hold that Epaphras became a prisoner with Paul in Rome.
