First aorist middle participle of \anaznnumi\, late and rare verb (Judges:18:16; strkjv@Proverbs:29:35; strkjv@31:17|), here only in N.T., vivid metaphor for habit of the Orientals, who quickly gathered up their loose robes with a girdle when in a hurry or starting on a journey. {The loins} (\tas osphuas\).

Adverb, old word (here alone in N.T.), from adjective \teleios\ (perfect), connected with \elpisate\ (set your hope, first aorist active imperative of \elpiz\) in the Revised Version, but Bigg, Hort, and most modern commentators take it according to Peter's usual custom with the preceding verb, \nphontes\ ("being perfectly sober," not "hope perfectly"). {That is to be brought} (\tn pheromenn\).

See also strkjv@7:33; strkjv@8:21| (to which Jesus here refers); strkjv@16:16-19|. {Songs:now I say unto you} (\kai humin leg arti\).

First aorist active participle feminine plural of \ekporneu\, late and rare compound (perfective use of \ek\, outside the moral law), only here in N.T., but in LXX (Genesis:38:24; strkjv@Exodus:34:15f.|, etc.). Cf. \aselgeian\ in verse 4|. {Strange flesh} (\sarkos heteras\). Horrible licentiousness, not simply with women not their wives or in other nations, but even unnatural uses (Romans:1:27|) for which the very word "sodomy" is used (Genesis:19:4-11|). The pronoun \heteras\ (other, strange) is not in strkjv@2Peter:2:10|. {Are set forth} (\prokeintai\).

First aorist passive (deponent) indicative of \poreuomai\. {In the way of Cain} (\ti hodi tou Kain\). Locative case \hodi\. Cain is Jude's fourth example.

First aorist passive indicative of \ekche\, to pour out, "they were poured out," vigorous metaphor for excessive indulgence.

Second aorist middle (intransitive) of \apollumi\. {In the gainsaying of Korah} (\ti antilogii tou Kore\). Again either locative or instrumental.

rwp@Luke:18:1 @{To the end that} (\pros to dein\). {With a view to the being necessary}, \pros\ and the articular infinitive.

Literally, not to give in to evil (\en, kake\, from \kakos\, bad or evil), to turn coward, lose heart, behave badly. A late verb used several times in the N.T. (2Corinthians:4:1,16,| etc.).

rwp@Luke:21:22 @{That may be fulfilled} (\tou plsthnai\). Articular infinitive passive to express purpose with accusative of general reference. The O.T. has many such warnings (Hosea:9:7; strkjv@Deuteronomy:28:49-57|, etc.).

rwp@Revelation:3:10 @{Patience} (\hupomens\). "Endurance" as in strkjv@13:10; strkjv@14:12| as also in strkjv@2Thessalonians:3:5|. {Thou didst keep} (\etrsas\) {--I also will keep} (\kag trs\). Aorist active indicative and future active corresponding to each other. For a like play on the tenses of this verb by Christ see strkjv@John:17:6| (\tetrkan\), strkjv@John:17:11| (\trson\), strkjv@John:17:12| (\etroun\). {From the hour of trial} (\ek ts hras tou peirasmou\). This use of \ek\ after \tre\ in strkjv@John:17:15|, \apo\ in strkjv@James:1:27|. Trial brings temptation often (James:1:2,13|). Jesus endured (Hebrews:12:1f.|) and he will help them. There is still a church in Philadelphia in spite of the Turks. {Which is to come} (\ts mellouss erchesthai\). Agreeing with \hras\ (feminine), not with \peirasmou\ (masculine). {Upon the whole world} (\epi ts epoikoumens hols\). The inhabited earth (\gs\) as in strkjv@Revelation:12:19; strkjv@Luke:2:1; strkjv@Acts:16:6|, etc.), not the physical earth, but the world of men as explained by the next clause. {To try} (\peirasai\). First aorist active infinitive of purpose from \peiraz\, probably to tempt (cf. the demons in strkjv@9:1-21|), not merely to afflict (2:10|). {That dwell upon the earth} (\tous katoikountas epi ts gs\). Present active articular participle of \katoike\, explaining "the whole world" just before.

Second aorist (first aorist ending) imperative of \pipt\, tense of urgency, do it now. {And hide us} (\kai krupsate hms\). Same tense of urgency again from \krupt\ (verb in verse 15|). Both imperatives come in inverted order from strkjv@Hosea:10:8| with \kalupsate\ (cover) in place of \krupsate\ (hide), quoted by Jesus on the way to the Cross (Luke:23:30|) in the order here, but with \kalupsate\, not \krupsate\. {From the face of him that} (\apo prospou tou\, etc.). "What sinners dread most is not death, but the revealed Presence of God" (Swete). Cf. strkjv@Genesis:3:8|. {And from the wrath of the Lamb} (\kai apo ts orgs tou arniou\). Repetition of "the grave irony" (Swete) of strkjv@5:5f|. The Lamb is the Lion again in the terribleness of his wrath. Recall the mourning in strkjv@1:7|. See strkjv@Matthew:25:41ff.| where Jesus pronounces the woes on the wicked.
