OT-POET.filter - rwp apistos:



rwp@Luke:24:11 @{As idle talk} (\h“s lˆros\). Old word for nonsense, only here in the N.T. Medical writers used it for the wild talk of those in delirium or hysteria. {Disbelieved} (ˆpistoun). Imperfect active of \apiste“\, old verb from \apistos\, without confidence or faith in. They kept on distrusting the story of the women.

rwp@Mark:9:19 @{Bring him unto me} (\pherete auton pros me\). The disciples had failed and their unbelief had led to this fiasco. Even the disciples were like and part of the {faithless} (\apistos\, unbelieving) generation in which they lived. The word {faithless} does not here mean treacherous as it does with us. But Jesus is not afraid to undertake this case. We can always come to Jesus when others fail us.
