NT-EPISTLES.filter - rwp Matthew:8:32:

rwp@John:7:4 @{In secret} (\en krupti\). See strkjv@Matthew:6:4,6| for this phrase. {Openly} (\en parrsii\). "In public" (\pn, rsis\, telling it all). See on ¯Matthew:8:32|. Common in John (7:13,26; strkjv@10:24; strkjv@16:25,29; strkjv@18:20|; here again contrasted with \en krupti\). It is wise advice in the abstract that a public teacher must allow inspection of his deeds, but the motive is evil. They might get Jesus into trouble. \If thou doest these things\ (\ei tauta poieis\). This condition of the first class assumes the reality of the deeds of Jesus, but the use of the condition at all throws doubt on it all as in strkjv@Matthew:4:3,6|. {Manifest thyself} (\phanerson seauton\). First aorist active imperative of \phanero\. {To the world} (\ti kosmi\). Not just to "thy disciples," but to the public at large as at the feast of tabernacles. See strkjv@8:26; strkjv@14:22| for this use of \kosmos\.

rwp@Luke:8:33 @{Rushed down the steep} (\hrmsen kata tou krmnou\). Ablative with \kata\ as in strkjv@Mark:5:13; strkjv@Matthew:8:32| and the same vivid verb in each account, to hurl impetuously, to rush. {Were choked} (\apepnig\). Second aorist (constative) passive indicative third singular (collective singular) where strkjv@Mark:5:13| has the picturesque imperfect \epnigonto\.
