rwp @1Peter:3:15 @{Sanctify } (\hagiasate \). First aorist active imperative of \hagiaz “\. This instead of being afraid . {Christ as Lord } (\kurion ton Christon \). \Ton Christon \, direct object with article and \kurion \ predicate accusative (without article ). This is the correct text , not \ton theon \ of the Textus Receptus . An adaptation to Christ of strkjv @Isaiah:8:13 |. {Being ready always } (\hetoimoi aei \). No participle in the Greek , old adjective (Titus:3:1 |). {To give answer } (\pros apologian \). "For an apology ," the old sense of \apologia \, an answer back , a defence (not excuse ), as in strkjv @Acts:22:1 |, from \apologeomai \ to defend (not to apologize ). {A reason concerning the hope that is in you } (\logon peri t ˆs en humin elpidos \). Original sense of \logon \ (accusative of the thing with \aitounti \ with \hum ƒs \, accusative of the person ) "concerning the in you hope ." Ready with a spoken defence of the inward hope . This attitude calls for an intelligent grasp of the hope and skill in presenting it . In Athens every citizen was expected to be able to join in the discussion of state affairs . {Yet with meekness and fear } (\alla meta praut ˆtos kai phobou \). Of God (2:18 ; strkjv @3:2 ,4 |), not of man .
