John:5:3
rwp@John:5:3 @{In these} (\en tautais\). In these five porches. {Lay} (\katekeito\). Imperfect middle of \katakeimai\, to lie down, singular number because \plthos\ (multitude) is a collective substantive. {Withered} (\xrn\). Old adjective \xros\ for dry, wasted as the hand (Matthew:12:10|). The oldest and best manuscripts omit what the Textus Receptus adds here "waiting for the moving of the water" (\ekdechomenon tn tou hudatos kinsin\), a Western and Syrian addition to throw light on the word \tarachthi\ (is troubled) in verse 7|.
