1Peter:1:22-23
rwp@1Peter:1:22 @{Seeing ye have purified} (\hgnikotes\). Perfect active participle of \hagniz\, old verb from \hagnos\ (pure), here with \psuchas\ (souls), with \kardias\ (hearts) in strkjv@James:4:8| as in strkjv@1John:3:3| of moral cleansing also. See the ceremonial sense of the word as in LXX in strkjv@John:11:55; strkjv@Acts:21:24,26; strkjv@24:18|. {In your obedience} (\en ti hupakoi\). With repetition of the idea in strkjv@1:2,14| (children of obedience). {To the truth} (\ts aletheias\). Objective genitive with which compare strkjv@John:17:17,19| about sanctification in the truth and strkjv@2Thessalonians:2:12| about believing the truth. There is cleansing power in the truth of God in Christ. {Unfeigned} (\anupokriton\). Late and rare double compound, here alone in Peter, but see strkjv@James:3:17; strkjv@2Corinthians:6:6|, etc. No other kind of \philadelphia\ (brotherly love) is worth having (1Thessalonians:4:9; strkjv@Hebrews:13:1; strkjv@2Peter:1:7|). {From the heart fervently} (\ek kardias ektens\). Late adverb (in inscriptions, Polybius, LXX). The adjective \ektens\ is more common (1Peter:4:8|).
rwp@1Peter:1:23 @{Having been begotten again} (\anagegennmenoi\). Perfect passive participle of \anagenna\, which see in verse 2|. {Not of corruptible seed} (\ouk ek spors phtharts\). Ablative with \ek\ as the source, for \phthartos\ see verse 18|, and \spors\ (from \speir\ to sow), old word (sowing, seed) here only in N.T., though \sporos\ in strkjv@Mark:4:26f.|, etc. For "incorruptible" (\aphthartou\) see verse 4; strkjv@3:4|. {Through the word of God} (\dia logou theou\). See strkjv@James:1:18| for "by the word of truth," verse 25| here, and Peter's use of \logos\ in strkjv@Acts:10:36|. It is the gospel message. {Which liveth and abideth} (\zntos kai menontos\). These present active participles (from \za\ and \men\) can be taken with \theou\ (God) or with \logou\ (word). In verse 25| \menei\ is used with \rma\ (word). Still in strkjv@Daniel:6:26| both \menn\ and \zn\ are used with \theos\. Either construction makes sense here.
rwp@1Peter:1:22 gives ref to '1:2, strkjv@2:14'. I would expect to see a ';' seperating
rwp@1Peter:1:1 makes ref to LXX "23:4; 38 or 39 12". unsure how to handle
