OT-LAW.filter - rwp recognizing:

rwp@2Corinthians:1:13 @{Than what ye read} (\all' ha anaginskete\). Note comparative conjunction \\ (than) after \all'\ and that after \alla\ (other things, same word in reality), "other than." Read in Greek (\anaginsk\) is knowing again, recognizing. See on ¯Acts:8:30|. {Or even acknowledge} (\ kai epiginskete\). Paul is fond of such a play on words (\anaginskete, epiginskete\) or paronomasia. Does he mean "read between the lines," as we say, by the use of \epi\ (additional knowledge)? {Unto the end} (\hes telous\). The report of Titus showed that the majority now at last understood Paul. He hopes that it will last (1Corinthians:1:8|).

rwp@Ephesians:5:5 @{Ye know of a surety} (\iste ginskontes\). The correct text has \iste\, not \este\. It is the same form for present indicative (second person plural) and imperative, probably indicative here, "ye know." But why \ginskontes\ added? Probably, "ye know recognizing by your own experience." {No} (\ps--ou\). Common idiom in the N.T. like the Hebrew= _oudeis_ (Robertson, _Grammar_, p. 732). {Covetous man} (\pleonekts, pleon ech\). Old word, in N.T. only here and strkjv@1Corinthians:5:10f.; strkjv@6:10|. {Which is} (\ho estin\). Songs:Aleph B. A D K L have \hos\ (who), but \ho\ is right. See strkjv@Colossians:3:14| for this use of \ho\ (which thing is). On \eidlolatrs\ (idolater) see strkjv@1Corinthians:5:10f|. {In the Kingdom of Christ and God} (\en ti basileii tou Christou kai theou\). Certainly the same kingdom and Paul may here mean to affirm the deity of Christ by the use of the one article with \Christou kai theou\. But Sharp's rule cannot be insisted on here because \theos\ is often definite without the article like a proper name. Paul did teach the deity of Christ and may do it here.

rwp@Hebrews:8:11 @{They shall not teach} (\ou m didaxsin\). Strong double negative (\ou m\) with the first aorist active (futuristic) subjunctive of \didask\. {His fellow-citizen} (\ton politn autou\). See strkjv@Luke:15:15; strkjv@19:14|. {Know the Lord} (\Gnthi ton kurion\). Second aorist active imperative of \ginsk\. In the new covenant all will be taught of God (Isaiah:54:13; strkjv@John:6:45|), whereas under the old only the educated scribe could understand the minutiae of the law (Dods). See Paul's comparison in strkjv@2Corinthians:3:7-18|. {Shall know} (\eidsousin\). Future perfect active, old form of \oida\ (note \ginsk\ just before of recognizing God), one of the rare future perfects (cf. strkjv@2:13|, \esomai pepoiths\).

rwp@John:8:27 @{They perceived not} (\ouk egnsan\). Second aorist active indicative of \ginsk\. "Preoccupied as they were with thoughts of an earthly deliverer" (Westcott) and prejudiced against recognizing Jesus as the one sent from God. {That he spake to them of the Father} (\hoti ton patera autois elegen\). Indirect assertion, but with the present indicative (\legei\) changed to the imperfect (\elegen\) as was sometimes done (2:25|) after a secondary tense.

rwp@Luke:24:16 @{Were holden that they should not know him} (\ekratounto tou m epignnai auton\). Imperfect passive of \krate\, continued being held, with the ablative case of the articular infinitive, "from recognizing him," from knowing him fully (\epi-gnnai\, ingressive aorist of \epiginsko\). The \m\ is a redundant negative after the negative idea in \ekratounto\.

rwp@Mark:6:54 @{Knew him} (\epignontes auton\). Recognizing Jesus, knowing fully (\epi\) as nearly all did by now. Second aorist active participle.

rwp@Mark:12:39 @{First seats in the synagogues} (\prtokathedrias\). As a mark of special piety, seats up in front while now the hypocrites present in church prefer the rear seats. {Chief places at feasts} (\prtoklisias en tois deipnois\). Recognizing proper rank and station. Even the disciples fall victims to this desire for precedence at table (Luke:22:24|).
