rwp@1Corinthians:7:5 @{Except it be by consent for a season} (\ei mti [an] ek sumphnou pros kairon\). If \an\ is genuine, it can either be regarded as like \ean\ though without a verb or as loosely added after \ei mti\ and construed with it. {That ye may give yourselves unto prayer} (\hina scholaste ti proseuchi\). First aorist active subjunctive of \scholaz\, late verb from \schol\, leisure (our "school"), and so to have leisure (punctiliar act and not permanent) for prayer. Note private devotions here. {That Satan tempt you not} (\hina m peirazi\). Present subjunctive, that Satan may not keep on tempting you. {Because of your incontinency} (\dia tn akrasian [humn]\). A late word from Aristotle on for \akrateia\ from \akrats\ (without self-control, \a\ privative and \krate\, to control, common old word). In N.T. only here and strkjv@Matthew:23:25| which see.
