rwp@1Timothy:5:14 @{I desire} (\boulomai\). See strkjv@2:8|. {The younger widows} (\neteras\). No article and no word for widows, though that is clearly the idea. \Neteras\ is accusative of general reference with \gamein\ (to marry) the object (present infinitive active) of \boulomai\. {Bear children} (\teknogonein\). A compound verb here only in N.T. and nowhere else save in Anthol. See \teknogonia\ in strkjv@2:15|. {Rule the household} (\oikodespotein\). Late verb from \oikodespots\ (Mark:14:14|), twice in the papyri, only here in N.T. Note that the wife is here put as ruler of the household, proper recognition of her influence, "new and improved position" (Liddon). {Occasion} (\aphormn\). Old word (\apo, horm\), a base to rush from, Pauline use in strkjv@2Corinthians:5:12; strkjv@11:12; strkjv@Galatians:5:13|. {To the adversary} (\ti antikeimeni\). Dative case of the articular participle of \antikeimai\, a Pauline idiom (Phillipians:1:28|). {Reviling} (\loidorias\). Old word (from \loidore\), in N.T. only here and strkjv@1Peter:3:9|. Genitive case with \charin\.

rwp@2Corinthians:5:12 @{As giving you occasion of glorying} (\aphormn didontes humin kauchmatos\). An old Greek word (\apo, horm\, onset, rush), a base of operations, material with which to glory, as we say "a tip" only much more. {That ye may have wherewith to answer} (\hina echte pros\). Literally, "That ye may have something against (for facing those, etc.)." Paul wishes his champions in Corinth to know the facts. {In appearance, and not in heart} (\en prospi kai m en kardii\). He means the Judaizers who were braggarts about their orthodox Judaism.

rwp@2Corinthians:11:12 @{That I may cut off occasion} (\hina ekkops tn aphormn\). Purpose clause with \hina\ and first aorist active subjunctive of \ekkopt\, old verb to cut out or off (Matthew:3:10; strkjv@5:30|). See strkjv@2Corinthians:5:12| for \aphormn\. {From them which desire an occasion} (\tn thelontn aphormn\). Ablative case after \ekkops\. There are always some hunting for occasions to start something against preachers. {They may be found} (\heurethsin\). First aorist passive subjunctive of \heurisk\, to find with final conjunction \hina\.

rwp@Acts:14:5 @{An onset} (\horm\). A rush or impulse as in strkjv@James:3:4|. Old word, but only twice in the N.T. (here and James). It probably denotes not an actual attack so much as the open start, the co-operation of both Jews and Gentiles (the disaffected portion), "with their rulers" (\sun tois archousin autn\), that is the rulers of the Jewish synagogue (13:27|). The city officials would hardly join in a mob like this, though Hackett and Rackham think that the city magistrates were also involved as in Antioch in Pisidia (13:50|). {To entreat them shamefully} (\hubrisai\). First aorist active infinitive of \hubriz\, old verb to insult insolently. See on ¯Matthew:22:6; strkjv@Luke:18:32|. {To stone} (\lithobolsai\). First aorist active infinitive of \lithobole\, late verb from \lithobolos\ (\lithos\, stone, \ball\, to throw) to pelt with stones, the verb used of the stoning of Stephen (7:58|). See on ¯Matthew:21:35|. The plan to stone them shows that the Jews were in the lead and followed by the Gentile rabble. "Legal proceedings having failed the only resource left for the Jews was illegal violence" (Rackham).

rwp@Galatians:5:13 @{Ye were called for freedom} (\ep' eleutherii eklthte\). The same point as in strkjv@5:1| made plainer by the use of \ep'\ (on the basis of, for the purpose of). See strkjv@1Thessalonians:4:7| for this use of \epi\. {Only use not} (\monon m\). No word for "use" in the Greek. Probably supply \trepete\ or \strephete\, "turn not your liberty into an occasion for the flesh" (\eis aphormn ti sarki\), as a spring board for license. On \aphorm\, see on ¯2Corinthians:5:12|. Liberty so easily turns to license.

rwp@Mark:6:53 @{And moored to the shore} (\kai prosrmisthsan\). Only here in the New Testament, though an old Greek verb and occurring in the papyri. \Hormos\ is roadstead or anchorage. They cast anchor or lashed the boat to a post on shore. It was at the plain of Gennesaret several miles south of Bethsaida owing to the night wind.

rwp@Revelation:18:21 @{A strong angel} (\heis aggelos ischuros\). Here \heis\ = a, just an indefinite article, not "one" as a numeral. {Took up} (\ren\). First aorist active indicative of \air\. {As it were a great millstone} (\hs mulinon megan\). Late adjective, in inscriptions, here only in N.T., made of millstone (\mulos\, strkjv@Matthew:18:6; strkjv@Revelation:18:22|), while \mulikos\ (Luke:17:2|) means belonging to a mill. This is not a small millstone turned by women (Matthew:24:41|), but one requiring an ass to turn it (Mark:9:42|), and so "a great" one. {Cast} (\ebalen\). Second aorist active of \ball\, to hurl. {With a mighty fall} (\hormmati\). Instrumental case (manner) of \hormma\, a rush, old word from \horma\, to rush (Matthew:8:32|), here only in N.T. {Shall be cast down} (\blethsetai\). Future (first) passive of \ball\, the same verb (\ebalen\), effective punctiliar future. Like a boulder hurled into the sea. {Shall be found no more at all} (\ou m heurethi eti\). Double negative with first aorist passive subjunctive of \heurisk\. See strkjv@9:6| for \ou m\ with the active voice of \heurisk\. Already the old Babylon was a desert waste (Strabo, XVI. 1073).

rwp@Romans:7:8 @{Finding occasion} (\aphormn labousa\). See strkjv@2Corinthians:5:12; strkjv@11:12; strkjv@Galatians:5:13| for \aphormn\, a starting place from which to rush into acts of sin, excuses for doing what they want to do. Just so drinking men use the prohibition laws as "occasions" for violating them. {Wrought in me} (\kateirgasato en emoi\). First aorist active middle indicative of the intensive verb \katergazomai\, to work out (to the finish), effective aorist. The command not to lust made me lust more. {Dead} (\nekra\). Inactive, not non-existent. Sin in reality was there in a dormant state.
