rwp@Acts:6:12 @{They stirred up the people} (\sunekinsan ton laon\). They shook the people together like an earthquake. First aorist active indicative of \sunkine\, to throw into commotion. Old verb, but here only in the N.T. The elders and the scribes (Pharisees) are reached, but no word about the Sadducees. This is the first record of the hostility of the masses against the disciples (Vincent). {Came upon him} (\epistantes\). Second aorist (ingressive) active participle of \ephistmi\. Rushed at him. {Seized} (\sunrpasan\). Effective aorist active of \sunarpaz\ as if they caught him after pursuit.
