OT-HISTORY.filter - rwp Colossians:1:11:

rwp@2Timothy:3:10 @{Didst follow} (\parkolouthsas\). First aorist active indicative of \parakolouthe\, for which see strkjv@1Timothy:4:6|. Some MSS. have perfect active \parkolouthkas\ (thou hast followed). Nine associative-instrumental cases here after the verb ({teaching}, \didaskalii\, strkjv@Romans:12:7|; {conduct}, \aggi\, old word here only in N.T.; {purpose}, \prothesei\, strkjv@Romans:8:28|; {faith}, \pistei\, strkjv@1Thessalonians:3:6|; {longsuffering}, \makrothumii\, strkjv@Colossians:1:11|; {persecutions}, \digmois\, strkjv@2Thessalonians:1:4|; {sufferings}, \pathmasin\, strkjv@2Corinthians:1:6f.|). The two last items belong to verse 11|.

rwp@Hebrews:11:34 @{Quenched the power of fire} (\esbesan dunamin puros\). First aorist active indicative of \sbennumi\ (Matthew:12:20|). See strkjv@Daniel:3:19-28|. {Escaped the edge of the sword} (\ephugon stomata machairs\). Second aorist active indicative of \pheug\, old verb to flee. "Mouths (\stomata\) of the sword" (Luke:21:24|). See strkjv@1Samuel:18:11; strkjv@1Kings:19:2|. {Were made strong} (\edunamthsan\). First aorist passive indicative of \dunamo\, late verb from \dunamis\ as in strkjv@Colossians:1:11|. {Waxed mighty in war} (\egenthsan ischuroi en polemi\). "Became strong in battle" (Psalms:18:34ff.|). {Armies of aliens} (\parembolas allotrin\). Late compound (\para, en, ball\) for encampment (Polybius, Plutarch), barracks (Acts:21:34,37|), armies in battle line (Revelation:20:9| and here as in LXX and Polybius). Apparently a reference to the campaigns of Judas Maccabeus.

rwp@James:1:3 @{Knowing} (\ginskontes\). Present active participle of \ginsk\ (experimental knowledge, the only way of getting this view of "trials" as "all joy"). {The proof} (\to dokimion\). Now known (Deissmann, _Bible Studies_, pp. 259ff.) from the papyri examples of \dokimios\ as an adjective in the same sense (good gold, standard gold) as \dokimos\ proved or tested (James:1:12|). The use of \to dokimion\ (neuter article with neuter single adjective) here and in strkjv@1Peter:1:7|, clearly means "the genuine element in your faith," not "crucible" nor "proving." Your faith like gold stands the test of fire and is approved as standard. James here, as in verse 6; strkjv@2:1; strkjv@5:15|, regards faith (\pistis\) like Paul "as the very foundation of religion" (Mayor). {Worketh} (\katergazetai\). Present (durative) middle indicative of the compound verb with the perfective sense of \kata\ as in strkjv@Phillipians:2:12|, which see. {Patience} (\hupomonn\). Old and common word for remaining under (\hupomen\), "staying power" (Ropes), as in strkjv@Colossians:1:11|.
