rwp@1Peter:2:12 @{Seemly} (\kaln\). Predicate adjective with \anastrophn\, for which see strkjv@1:15,18|. The Gentiles are on the watch for slips in moral conduct by the Christians. {That} (\hina\). Final conjunction with \doxassin\ (they may glorify, first aorist active subjunctive of \doxaz\, the purpose of the Christians about the Gentiles. {Wherein} (\en hi\). "In what thing." {As evil-doers} (\hs kakopoin\). As they did and do, old word (from \kakon\ and \poie\, strkjv@John:18:30|), in N.T. only here and verse 14| in correct text. Heathen talk against us (\katalalousin\) gleefully. {By your good works} (\ek tn kaln ergn\). "Out of (as a result of) your good (beautiful) deeds." {Which they behold} (\epopteuontes\). Present active participle of \epopteu\, old verb (from, \epopts\, overseer, spectator, strkjv@2Peter:1:16|), to be an overseer, to view carefully, in N.T. only here and strkjv@3:2|. {In the day of visitation} (\en hmeri episkops\). From strkjv@Isaiah:10:33|. Cf. its use in strkjv@Luke:19:44|, which see for the word \episkop\ (from \episkope\, to inspect (Hebrews:12:15|). Clear echo here of strkjv@Matthew:5:16|.

rwp@Revelation:3:9 @{I give} (\did\). Late omega form for \didmi\, but the \-mi\ form in strkjv@17:13| (\didoasin\). These Jewish converts are a gift from Christ. For this use of \didmi\ see strkjv@Acts:2:27; strkjv@10:40; strkjv@14:3|. There is ellipse of \tinas\ before \ek\ as in strkjv@2:10| (\ex humn\) and see strkjv@2:9| for "the synagogue of Satan." {Of them which say} (\tn legontn\). Ablative plural in apposition with \sunaggs\. On the construction of \heautous Ioudaious einai\ see on ¯2:9| (\Ioudaious einai heautous\, the order of words being immaterial). {But do lie} (\alla pseudontai\). Present middle indicative of \pseudomai\, explanatory positive, addition here to \kai ouk eisin\ of strkjv@2:9|, in contrast also with \ho althinos\ of verse 7| and in Johannine style (John:8:44; strkjv@1John:1:10; strkjv@2:4|). {I will make them} (\pois autous\). Future active indicative of \poie\, resuming the prophecy after the parenthesis (\tn--pseudontai\, which say--but do lie). {To come and worship} (\hina hxousin kai proskunsousin\). "That they come and worship" (final clause, like _facio ut_ in Latin, with \hina\ and the future active of \hk\ and \proskune\). The language is based on strkjv@Isaiah:45:14; strkjv@60:14|. The Jews expected homage (not worship in the strict sense) from the Gentiles, but it will come to the Christians at last (1Corinthians:14:24|). Later Ignatius (_Philad_. 6) warns this church against Judaizing Christians, perhaps one result of an influx of Jews. {And to know} (\kai gnsin\). Continuation of the purpose clause with \hina\, but with the second aorist active subjunctive rather than the less usual future indicative. See both constructions also with \hina\ in strkjv@22:14|. Probably a reminiscence of strkjv@Isaiah:43:4| in \eg gapsa se\ (I loved thee), first aorist active indicative.

rwp@Revelation:8:13 @{An eagle} (\henos aetou\). "One eagle," perhaps \henos\ (\heis\) used as an indefinite article (9:13; strkjv@18:21; strkjv@19:17|). See strkjv@4:7| also for the flying eagle, the strongest of birds, sometimes a symbol of vengeance (Deuteronomy:28:49; strkjv@Hosea:8:1; strkjv@Habbakkuk:1:8|). {Flying in mid-heaven} (\petomenou en mesouranmati\). Like the angel in strkjv@14:6| and the birds in strkjv@19:17|. \Mesouranma\ (from \mesourane\ to be in mid-heaven) is a late word (Plutarch, papyri) for the sun at noon, in N.T. only these three examples. This eagle is flying where all can see, and crying so that all can hear. {Woe, woe, woe} (\ouai, ouai, ouai\). Triple because three trumpets yet to come. In strkjv@18:10,16,19| the double \ouai\ is merely for emphasis. {For them that dwell on the earth} (\tous katoikountas\). Accusative of the articular present active participle of \katoike\, is unusual (Aleph Q here and also in strkjv@12:12|) as in strkjv@Matthew:11:21|. There is even a nominative in strkjv@18:10|. {By reason of the other voices} (\ek tn loipn phnn\). "As a result of (\ek\) the rest of the voices." There is more and worse to come, "of the three angels who are yet to sound" (\tn trin aggeln tn mellontn salpizein\).

rwp@Revelation:9:2 @{Opened} (\noixen\). First aorist active indicative of \anoignumi\. With the "key" (\kleis\). {As the smoke of a great furnace} (\hs kapnos kaminou megals\). The plague of demonic locusts is here turned loose. \Kaminos\ is old word for a smelting-furnace, already in strkjv@1:15|. {Were darkened} (\eskotth\). First aorist passive indicative of \skoto\, old causative verb from \skotos\, in N.T. only here, strkjv@16:10; strkjv@Ephesians:4:18|. {By reason of} (\ek\). "Out of," as a result of (8:13|).
