rwp@1Corinthians:15:30 @{Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?} (\ti kai hmeis kinduneuomen pasan hran?\). We also as well as those who receive baptism which symbolizes death. Old verb from \kindunos\ (peril, danger), in N.T. only here and strkjv@Luke:8:23|. Paul's Epistles and Acts (especially chapter strkjv@Acts:19|) throw light on Paul's argument. He was never out of danger from Damascus to the last visit to Rome. There are perils in Ephesus of which we do not know (2Corinthians:1:8f.|) whatever may be true as to an Ephesian imprisonment. G. S. Duncan (_St. Paul's Ephesian Ministry_, 1930) even argues for several imprisonments in Ephesus. The accusative of time (\pasan hran\) naturally means all through every hour (extension).

rwp@John:4:52 @{Inquired} (\eputheto\). Second aorist middle indicative of \punthanomai\. {Began to mend} (\kompsoteron eschen\). Second aorist ingressive active indicative of \ech\ (took a turn, got better) and comparative of adverb \kompss\. Arrian (_Epictetus iii. 10.13) has \kompss echeis\ from a physician, "Thou hast it fine," "Thou art doing finely." The papyri give several similar examples. \Kompss\ (neat) is from \kome\, to take care of. {At the seventh hour} (\hran hebdomn\). The accusative case without a preposition as in strkjv@Revelation:3:3|, though we have \peri hran enatn\ (about the ninth hour) in strkjv@Acts:10:3|. See the accusative also in strkjv@Exodus:9:18| \tautn tn hran aurion\ (tomorrow about this hour). The accusative has the notion of extension and can be thus loosely used. It can even mean here "during the seventh hour." In verse 53| the locative is more exact, "at that hour" (\en ekeini ti hri\). The seventh hour would be (Roman time) seven P.M.

rwp@Matthew:20:14 @{Take up} (\aron\). First aorist active imperative of \air\. Pick up, as if he had saucily refused to take it from the table or had contemptuously thrown the denarius on the ground. If the first had been paid first and sent away, there would probably have been no murmuring, but "the murmuring is needed to bring out the lesson" (Plummer). The \dnarius\ was the common wage of a day labourer at that time. {What I will} (\ho thel\). This is the point of the parable, the _will_ of the householder. {With mine own} (\en tois emois\). In the sphere of my own affairs. There is in the _Koin_ an extension of the instrumental use of \en\.

rwp@Revelation:6:11 @{A white robe} (\stol leuk\). Old word from \stell\, to equip, an equipment in clothes, a flowing robe (Mark:12:38|). For the white robe for martyrs see strkjv@3:4f.; strkjv@4:4; strkjv@7:9,13; strkjv@19:14|. {That they should rest} (\hina anapausontai\). Sub-final clause with \hina\ and the future indicative (as in strkjv@3:9; strkjv@6:4|) middle rather than the aorist middle subjunctive \anapausntai\ of Aleph C. {Yet for a little time} (\eti chronon mikron\). Accusative of extension of time as in strkjv@20:3|. Perhaps rest from their cry for vengeance and also rest in peace (14:13|). For the verb \anapau\ see on ¯Matthew:11:28|. {Until should be fulfilled} (\hes plrthsin\). Future indefinite temporal clause with \hes\ and the first aorist passive subjunctive of \plro\, to fill full (Matthew:23:32; strkjv@Colossians:2:10|), "until be filled full" (the number of), regular Greek idiom. {Which should be killed} (\hoi mellontes apoktennesthai\). Regular construction of articular present active participle of \mell\ (about to be, going to be) with the present passive infinitive of \apoktenn\, Aeolic and late form for \apoktein\, to kill (also in strkjv@Mark:12:5|). John foresees more persecution coming (2:10; strkjv@3:10|).
