OT-HISTORY.filter - rwp symphony:

rwp@Acts:5:9 @{Ye have agreed together} (\sunephnth humin\). First aorist passive indicative of \sumphne\ (to voice together, symphony), impersonal with dative; It was agreed together by you (or for you). "Your souls were allured together respecting this deceit" (Vincent). {To tempt the Spirit of the Lord} (\peirasai to pneuma kuriou\). Like "Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God." It was close to the unpardonable sin which was attributing the manifest work of the Holy Spirit to Beelzebub. {The feet} (\hoi podes\). Graphic picture by Peter as he heard the steps of the young men at the door.

rwp@Acts:15:15 @{To this agree} (\touti sumphnousin\). Associative instrumental case (\touti\) after \sumphnousin\ (voice together with, symphony with, harmonize with), from \sumphne\, old verb seen already in strkjv@Matthew:18:19; strkjv@Luke:5:36; strkjv@Acts:5:9| which see. James cites only strkjv@Amos:9:11,12| from the LXX as an example of "the words of the prophets" (\hoi logoi tn prophtn\) to which he refers on this point. The somewhat free quotation runs here through verses 16-18| of strkjv@Acts:15| and is exceedingly pertinent. The Jewish rabbis often failed to understand the prophets as Jesus showed. The passage in Amos refers primarily to the restoration of the Davidic empire, but also the Messiah's Kingdom (the throne of David his father," strkjv@Luke:1:32|).
