NT.filter - rwp Acts:2:46:



rwp@2Timothy:2:6 @{The husbandman that laboureth} (\ton kopi“nta ge“rgon\). "The toiling tiller of the soil" (\ge“rgon\, from \gˆ\ and \erg“\, worker of the earth). See \ge“rgion\ (field) in strkjv@1Corinthians:3:9| and also strkjv@1Corinthians:9:7|. {First} (\pr“ton\). As is natural and right. {To partake} (\metalambanein\). Old word as in strkjv@Acts:2:46| to share in. Paul elsewhere uses \metech“\ as in strkjv@1Corinthians:9:12|.

rwp@Acts:2:46 @{With one accord in the temple} (\homothumadon en t“i hier“i\). See on ¯1:14| for \homothumadon\. They were still worshipping in the temple for no breach had yet come between Christians and Jews. Daily they were here and daily breaking bread at home (\kat' oikon\) which looks like the regular meal. {They did take their food} (\metelambanon trophˆs\). Imperfect tense again and clearly referring to the regular meals at home. Does it refer also to the possible \agapai\ or to the Lord's Supper afterwards as they had common meals "from house to house" (\kat' oikon\)? We know there were local churches in the homes where they had "worship rooms," the church in the house. At any rate it was "with singleness" (\aphelotˆti\) of heart. The word occurs only here in the N.T., though a late _Koin‚_ word (papyri). It comes from \aphelˆs\, free from rock (\phelleus\ is stony ground), smooth. The old form was \apheleia\.

rwp@Hebrews:6:7 @{Which hath drunk} (\hˆ piousa\). Articular second aorist active participle of \pin“\, to drink. {Herbs} (\botanˆn\). Old word from \bosk“\, to feed, green plant, only here in N.T. Cf. our botany. {Meet} (\eutheton\). Old compound verbal (\eu, tithˆmi\) well-placed, fit (Luke:9:62|). {It is tilled} (\ge“rgeitai\). Present passive indicative of \ge“rge“\, old and rare verb from \ge“rgos\ (tiller of the soil, \gˆ, ergon\, strkjv@2Timothy:2:6|), here only in the N.T. {Receives} (\metalambanei\). Present active indicative of \metalamban“\, old verb to share in, with genitive (\eulogias\) as here (Acts:2:46|) or with accusative (Acts:24:25|).
