NT-GOSPEL.filter - rwp kaka:



rwp@1Peter:3:12 @{Upon} (\epi\). In the case of righteous (\dikaious\, in the O.T. sense like \dikaion Lot\ in strkjv@2Peter:2:7|) for their good, but in the case of men "that do evil" (\epi poiountas kaka\, "upon men doing evil things") "the face of the Lord" (\pros“pon kuriou\) is not for their good, \epi\ here approaching "against" in idea.

rwp@Acts:9:13 @{How much evil} (\hosa kaka\). How many evil things. Saul's reputation (26:10|) as a persecutor had preceded him. {To thy saints} (\tois hagiois\). Dative of disadvantage. "Used here for the first time as a name for the Christians" (Knowling), but it came to be the common and normal (Hackett) term for followers of Christ (9:32,41; strkjv@26:10; strkjv@1Corinthians:1:2|, etc.). This common word is from \to hagos\, religious awe or reverence and is applied to God's name (Luke:1:49|), God's temple (Matthew:24:15|), God's people as set apart for God (Luke:1:70; strkjv@2:23; strkjv@Romans:1:7|, etc.). Ananias in his ignorance saw in Saul only the man with an evil reputation while Jesus saw in Saul the man transformed by grace to be a messenger of mercy.
