rwp@1Corinthians:11:3 @{But I would have you know} (\thel de humas eidenai\). But I wish you to know, censure in contrast to the praise in verse 2|. {The head of Christ is God} (\kephal tou Christou ho theos\). Rather, God is the head of Christ, since \kephal\ is anarthrous and predicate.

rwp@1Corinthians:11:30 @{And not a few sleep} (\kai koimntai hikanoi\). Sufficient number (\hikanoi\) are already asleep in death because of their desecration of the Lord's table. Paul evidently had knowledge of specific instances. A few would be too many.

rwp@1Corinthians:11:31 @{But if we discerned ourselves} (\ei de heautous diekrinomen\). This condition of the second class, determined as unfulfilled, assumes that they had not been judging themselves discriminatingly, else they would not be judged (\ekrinometha\). Note distinction in the two verbs.

rwp@1Corinthians:11:32 @{Ye are chastened of the Lord} (\hupo tou Kuriou paideuometha\). On this sense of \paideu\, from \pais\, child, to train a child (Acts:7:22|), to discipline with words (2Timothy:2:25|), to chastise with scourges see on ¯Luke:23:16| (Hebrews:12:7|), and so by afflictions as here (Hebrews:12:6|). \Hupo tou Kuriou\ can be construed with \krinomenoi\ instead of with \paideuometha\. {With the world} (\sun ti kosmi\). Along with the world. Afflictions are meant to separate us from the doom of the wicked world. Final use of \hina m\ here with \katakrithmen\ (first aorist passive subjunctive).

rwp@1Corinthians:11:33 @{Wait one for another} (\alllous ekdechesthe\). As in strkjv@John:5:3; strkjv@Acts:17:16|. That is common courtesy. Wait in turn. Vulgate has _invicem expectate_.

rwp@1Corinthians:11:34 @{At home} (\en oiki\). If so hungry as all that (verse 22|). {The rest} (\ta loipa\). He has found much fault with this church, but he has not told all. {I will set in order} (\diataxomai\). Not even Timothy and Titus can do it all. {Whensoever I come} (\hs an elth\). Common idiom for temporal clause of future time (conjunction like \hs\ with \an\ and aorist subjunctive \elth\).

rwp@James:5:15 @{The prayer of faith} (\h euch ts pistes\). Cf. strkjv@1:6| for prayer marked by faith. {Shall save} (\ssei\). Future active of \sz\, to make well. As in strkjv@Matthew:9:21f.; strkjv@Mark:6:56|. No reference here to salvation of the soul. The medicine does not heal the sick, but it helps nature (God) do it. The doctor cooperates with God in nature. {The sick} (\ton kamnonta\). Present active articular participle of \kamn\, old verb, to grow weary (Hebrews:12:3|), to be sick (here), only N.T. examples. {The Lord shall raise him up} (\egerei auton ho kurios\). Future active of \egeir\. Precious promise, but not for a professional "faith-healer" who scoffs at medicine and makes merchandise out of prayer. {And if he have committed sins} (\kan hamartias i pepoiks\). Periphrastic perfect active subjunctive (unusual idiom) with \kai ean\ (crasis \kan\) in condition of third class. Supposing that he has committed sins as many sick people have (Mark:2:5ff.; strkjv@John:5:14; strkjv@9:2f.; strkjv@1Corinthians:11:30|). {It shall be forgiven him} (\aphethsetai auti\). Future passive of \aphimi\ (impersonal passive as in strkjv@Matthew:7:2,7; strkjv@Romans:10:10|). Not in any magical way, not because his sickness has been healed, not without change of heart and turning to God through Christ. Much is assumed here that is not expressed.
