rwp@1Peter:5:2 @{Tend} (\poimanate\). First aorist active imperative of \poimain\, old verb, from \poimn\ (shepherd) as in strkjv@Luke:17:7|. Jesus used this very word to Peter in the interview by the Sea of Galilee (John:21:16|) and Peter doubtless has this fact in mind here. Paul used the word to the elders at Miletus (Acts:20:28|). See strkjv@2:25| for the metaphor. {Flock} (\poimnion\). Old word, likewise from \poimn\, contraction of \poimenion\ (Luke:12:32|). {Exercising the oversight} (\episkopountes\). Present active participle of \episkope\, old word (in strkjv@Hebrews:12:15| alone in N.T.), omitted here by Aleph B. {Not by constraint} (\m anagkasts\). Negative \m\ because of the imperative. Old adverb from verbal adjective \anagkastos\, here alone in N.T. {But willingly} (\alla hekousis\). By contrast. Old adverb, in N.T. only here and strkjv@Hebrews:10:26|. {Nor yet for filthy lucre} (\mde aischrokerds\). A compound adverb not found elsewhere, but the old adjective \aischrokerds\ is in strkjv@1Timothy:3:8; strkjv@Titus:1:7|. See also strkjv@Titus:1:11| "for the sake of filthy lucre" (\aischrou kerdous charin\). Clearly the elders received stipends, else there could be no such temptation. {But of a ready mind} (\alla prothums\). Old adverb from \prothumos\ (Matthew:26:41|), here only in N.T.

rwp@1Timothy:3:8 @{Deacons} (\diakonous\). Accusative case of general reference like the preceding with \dei einai\ understood. Technical sense of the word here as in strkjv@Phillipians:1:1| which see (two classes of church officers, bishops or elders, deacons). {Grave} (\semnous\). See strkjv@Phillipians:4:8|. Repeated in verse 11; strkjv@Titus:2:2|. {Not double-tongued} (\m dilogous\). Rare word (\dis, leg\) saying same thing twice. Xenophon has \diloge\ and \dilogia\. In Pollux, but LXX has \diglssos\ (double-tongued, Latin _bilinguis_). Only here in N.T. One placed between two persons and saying one thing to one, another to the other. Like Bunyan's Parson "Mr. Two-Tongues." {Not given to much wine} (\m oini polli prosechontas\). "Not holding the mind (\ton noun\ understood as usual with \prosech\, strkjv@1Timothy:1:4|) on much wine" (\oini\, dative case). That attitude leads to over-indulgence. {Not greedy of filthy lucre} (\m aischrokerdeis\). Old word from \aischros\ (Ephesians:5:12|) and \kerdos\ (Phillipians:1:21|). "Making small gains in mean ways" (Parry). Not genuine in verse 3|. In N.T. only here and strkjv@Titus:1:7| (of bishops).

rwp@Titus:1:7 @{The bishop} (\ton episkopon\). Same office as "elder" in strkjv@1:5|. "Elder is the title, oversight is the function" (B. Weiss). {As God's steward} (\hs theou oikonomon\). See strkjv@1Corinthians:4:1f.| for Paul's idea of the bishop (elder) as God's steward (cf. strkjv@1Corinthians:9:17; strkjv@Colossians:1:25; strkjv@Ephesians:3:2; strkjv@1Timothy:1:4|). {Not self-willed} (\m authad\). Old word (from \autos, hdomai\), self-pleasing, arrogant. In N.T. only here and strkjv@2Peter:2:10|. {Not soon angry} (\orgilon\). Old adjective from \org\ (anger). Here only in N.T. Vulgate, _iracundum_. For "brawler" and "striker" see strkjv@1Timothy:3:2|. {Not greedy of filthy lucre} (\aischrokerd\). "Not greedy of shameful gain." Used of deacons in strkjv@1Timothy:3:8|, \aphilarguron\ used of elders in strkjv@1Timothy:3:3|.
