rwp - Ephesians:4:29-30

rwp@Ephesians:4:29 @{Corrupt} (\sapros\). Rotten, putrid, like fruit (Matthew:7:17f.|), fish (Matthew:13:48|), here the opposite of \agathos\ (good). {For edifying as the need may be} (\pros oikodomn ts chreias\). "For the build-up of the need," "for supplying help when there is need." Let no other words come out. {That it may give} (\hina di\). For this elliptical use of \hina\ see on ¯5:33|.

rwp@Ephesians:4:30 @{Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God} (\m lupeite to pneuma to hagion tou theou\). "Cease grieving" or "do not have the habit of grieving." Who of us has not sometimes grieved the Holy Spirit? {In whom} (\en hi\). Not "in which." {Ye were sealed} (\esphragisthte\). See strkjv@1:13| for this verb, and strkjv@1:14| for \apolutrses\, the day when final redemption is realized.
