rwp - John:9:31

rwp@John:9:31 @{God does not hear sinners} (\ho theos hamartln ouk akouei\). Note genitive case with \akouei\. This was the argument of the Pharisees in strkjv@9:16|. It is frequent in the O.T. (Job:27:9; strkjv@Psalms:66:18; strkjv@Isaiah:1:15; strkjv@59:2|, etc.). The conclusion is inevitable from this premise. Jesus is not \hamartlos\. {If any man be a worshipper of God} (\ean tis theosebs i\). Condition of third class with \ean\ and present active subjunctive \i\. \Theosebs\ (\theos\, God, \sebomai\, to worship) is an old compound adjective, here alone in the N.T. {And do his will} (\kai to thelma autou poiei\). Same condition with present active subjunctive of \poie\, "keep on doing his will."
