rwp Hebrews:12:28
rwp@Hebrews:12:28 @{Wherefore} (\dio\). Ground for loyalty to Christ and for calm trust in God. {That cannot be shaken} (\asaleuton\). Old compound with alpha privative and the verbal adjective from \saleu\ just used. In N.T. only here and strkjv@Acts:27:41|. {Let us have grace} (\echmen charin\). Present active volitive subjunctive of \ech\, "Let us keep on having grace" as in strkjv@4:16|, though it can mean "Let us keep on having gratitude" as in strkjv@Luke:17:9|. {Whereby} (\di' hs\). That is \dia charitos\. {We may offer service} (\latreumen\). This subjunctive in a relative clause can be volitive like \echmen\ just before (cf. imperative \stte\ in strkjv@1Peter:5:12|) or it might be the futuristic subjunctive as in strkjv@8:3| (\ho prosenegki\). {Well pleasing} (\euarests\). Old compound adverb, here only in N.T. {With reverence and awe} (\meta eulabeias kai deous\). For \eulabeia\ see strkjv@5:7; strkjv@11:7|. \Deos\ is apprehension of danger as in a forest. "When the voice and tread of a wild beast are distinctly heard close at hand the \deos\ becomes \phobos\" (Vincent).
