OT-HISTORY.filter - rwp slur:

rwp@Acts:4:17 @{That it spread no further} (\hina m epi pleion dianemthi\). First aorist passive subjunctive of \dianem\, to distribute with \hina m\, negative purpose. {Let us threaten them} (\apeilsmetha autois\). Hortatory aorist middle subjunctive of \apeile\, old verb (note middle voice). In the N.T. only here and strkjv@1Peter:2:23|. {That they speak henceforth to no man in this name} (\mketi lalein epi ti onomati touti mdeni anthrpn\). Indirect command with the infinitive and double negative (\mketi, mdeni\). They will not say "Jesus," but make a slur at "this name," contemptuous use of \houtos\, though they apparently do mention the name "Jesus" in verse 18|.

rwp@Acts:5:28 @{We straitly charged} (\Paraggelii parggeilamen\). Like the Hebrew idiom (common in the LXX), though found in Greek, with charging (instrumental case) we charged (cf. same idiom in strkjv@Luke:22:15|). Somewhat like the cognate accusative. The command referred to occurs in strkjv@Acts:4:17,18| and the refusal of Peter and John in strkjv@4:20|. {To bring upon us} (\epagagein eph' hms\). Note repetition of \epi\. Second aorist active infinitive of \epag\, old verb, but in the N.T. only here and strkjv@2Peter:2:1,5|. The Sanhedrin gladly took the blood of Christ on their heads and their children to Pilate (Matthew:27:25|). Paul tried to save the Jews (Acts:18:6; strkjv@22:20|). "{This man}" (\tou anthrpou toutou\). Contemptuous slur and refusal to call the name of Jesus as in the Talmud later.

rwp@John:17:25 @{O righteous Father} (\Patr dikaie\). Nominative form with \patr\ used as vocative (cf. strkjv@John:20:28|), but vocative form \dikaie\. Then the righteousness of God is appealed to like God's holiness in verse 11|. {The world} (\kai ho kosmos\). The translations usually slur over the \kai\ as untranslatable in English. Westcott suggests "while" as a sort of correlative. It is quite possible that here \kai\ is almost concessive like "though" and \de\=yet: "though the world did not know thee, yet I knew thee, and these knew thee." See Robertson, _Grammar_, p. 1182 for \kai--de--kai\ and various other uses of \kai\ in John's Gospel.
