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@Hebrews:9:7 @{Alone} (\monos\). Predicate adjective with \ho archiereus\. {Once in the year} (\hapax tou eniautou\). Once for each year (not \pote\, at any time) with genitive of time. {Not without blood} (\ou chris haimatos\). According to strkjv@Leviticus:16:14f|. Not even he could enter the second tent (Holy of Holies) without blood. {The errors of the people} (\tn tou laou agnomatn\). Late word from \agnoe\, not to know (5:2|), only here in the N.T., but in LXX, papyri, and inscriptions where a distinction is drawn between errors (\agnomata\) and crimes (\harmartmata\). In strkjv@Genesis:43:12| \agnoma\ is "an oversight." But these sins of ignorance (\agnomata\) were sins and called for atonement. See strkjv@Hebrews:10:26| for wilful sinning.

Vivid picture. {Springing up} (\an phuousa\). Present active participle of \phu\, to sprout. Pictured here as a quick process. Also from strkjv@Deuteronomy:29:18|. {Trouble} (\enochli\). Present active subjunctive (in final clause with \m tis\) of \enochle\, old verb to trouble with a crowd, to annoy. In N.T. only here and strkjv@Luke:6:18|. {Be defiled} (\mianthsin\). First aorist passive subjunctive (in final clause with \m\) of \mian\, old verb to dye, to stain, to defile as in strkjv@Titus:1:15| (the conscience). The contagion of sin is terrible as any disease.

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\).
