Ephesians:5:18-19




rwp@Ephesians:5:18 @{Be not drunken with wine} (\mˆ methuskesthe oin“i\). Present passive imperative of \methusk“\, old verb to intoxicate. Forbidden as a habit and to stop it also if guilty. Instrumental case \oin“i\. {Riot} (\as“tia\). Old word from \as“tos\ (adverb \as“t“s\ in strkjv@Luke:15:13|), in N.T. only here, strkjv@Titus:1:6; strkjv@1Peter:4:4|. {But be filled with the Spirit} (\alla plˆrousthe en pneumati\). In contrast to a state of intoxication with wine.

rwp@Ephesians:5:19 @{To the Lord} (\t“i Kuri“i\). The Lord Jesus. In strkjv@Colossians:3:16| we have \t“i the“i\ (to God) with all these varieties of praise, another proof of the deity of Christ. See strkjv@Colossians:3:16| for discussion.
