rwp@James:5:2 @{Riches} (\ho ploutos\). Masculine singular, but occasionally neuter \to ploutos\ in nominative and accusative (2Corinthians:8:2|). Apparently \pleotos\ fulness (from \pleos\ full, \pimplmi\ to fill). "Wealth." {Are corrupted} (\sespen\). Second perfect active indicative of \sp\ (root \sap\ as in \sapros\, rotten), to corrupt, to destroy, here intransitive "has rotted." Only here in N.T. On the worthlessness of mere wealth see strkjv@Matthew:6:19,24|. {Were moth-eaten} (\stobrta gegonen\). "Have become (second perfect indicative of \ginomai\, singular number, though \himatia\, neuter plural, treated collectively) moth-eaten" (\stobrta\, late and rare compound from \ss\, moth, strkjv@Matthew:6:19f.| and \brtos\, verbal adjective of \bibrsk\ to eat strkjv@John:6:13|. This compound found only here, strkjv@Job:13:28|, Sibyll. Orac. _Proem_. 64). Rich robes as heirlooms, but moth-eaten. Vivid picture. Witness the 250 "lost millionaires" in the United States in 1931 as compared with 1929. Riches have wings.

rwp@John:6:13 @{Twelve baskets} (\ddeka kophinous\). One for each of the apostles. What about the lad? Stout wicker baskets (coffins, Wycliff) in distinction from the soft and frail \sphurides\ used at the feeding of the four thousand (Mark:8:8; strkjv@Matthew:15:37|). Here all the Gospels (Mark:6:43; strkjv@Matthew:14:20; strkjv@Luke:9:17; strkjv@John:6:13|) use \kophinoi\. The same distinction between \kophinoi\ and \sphurides\ is preserved in the allusion to the incidents by Jesus in strkjv@Mark:8:19,20; strkjv@Matthew:16:9,10|. {Unto them that had eaten} (\tois bebrkosin\). Articular perfect active participle (dative case) of \bibrsk\, old verb to eat, only here in N.T., though often in LXX.

rwp@Luke:9:13 @{Except we should go and buy food} (\ei mti poreuthentes hmeis agorasmen brmata\). This is a condition of the third class with the aorist subjunctive (\agorasmen\), where the conjunction is usually \ean\ (with negative \ean m\), but not always or necessarily so especially in the _Koin_. Songs:in strkjv@1Corinthians:14:5| \ei m diermneui\ and in strkjv@Phillipians:3:12| \ei kai katalab\. "Unless" is better here than "except." {Food} (\brmata\), means eaten pieces from \bibrsk\, to eat, somewhat like our "edibles" or vernacular "eats."

rwp@Matthew:6:20 @{Rust} (\brsis\). Something that "eats" (\bibrsk\) or "gnaws" or "corrodes."
