rwp@Luke:9:55 @{But he turned} (\strapheis de\). Second aorist passive participle of \streph\, common verb, to turn round. Dramatic act. Some ancient MSS. have here: {Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of} (\ouk oidate poiou pneumatos este\). This sounds like Christ and may be a genuine saying though not a part of Luke's Gospel. A smaller number of MSS. add also: {For the Son of Man came not to destroy men's lives, but to save them} (\Hosea:gar huios tou anthrpou ouk lthen psuchas anthrpn apolesai alla ssai\), a saying reminding us of strkjv@Matthew:5:17; strkjv@Luke:19:10|. Certain it is that here Jesus rebuked the bitterness of James and John toward Samaritans as he had already chided John for his narrowness towards a fellow-worker in the kingdom.

rwp@Revelation:9:1 @{Fallen} (\peptkota\). Perfect active participle of \pipt\, already down. In strkjv@Luke:10:18| note \pesonta\ (constative aorist active, like a flash of lightning) after \etheroun\ and in strkjv@Revelation:7:2| note \anabainonta\ (present active and linear, coming up, picturing the process) after \eidon\. {Of the pit of the abyss} (\tou phreatos ts abussou\). \Abussos\ is an old adjective (alpha privative and \buthos\, depth, without depth), but \h abussos\ (supply \chra\ place), the bottomless place. It occurs in strkjv@Romans:10:7| for the common receptacle of the dead for Hades (Sheol), but in strkjv@Luke:8:31| a lower depth is sounded (Swete), for the abode of demons, and in this sense it occurs in strkjv@Revelation:9:1,2,11; strkjv@11:7; strkjv@17:8; strkjv@20:1,3|. \Phrear\ is an old word for well or cistern (Luke:14:5; strkjv@John:4:11f.|) and it occurs in strkjv@Revelation:9:1f.| for the mouth of the abyss which is pictured as a cistern with a narrow orifice at the entrance and this fifth angel holds the key to it.
