rwp@1Corinthians:6:20 @{For ye were bought with a price} (\gorasthte gar tims\). First aorist passive indicative of \agoraz\, old verb to buy in the marketplace (\agora\). With genitive of price. Paul does not here state the price as Peter does in strkjv@1Peter:1:19| (the blood of Christ) and as Jesus does in strkjv@Matthew:20:28| (his life a ransom). The Corinthians understood his meaning. {Glorify God therefore in your body} (\doxasate d ton theon en ti smati humn\). Passionate conclusion to his powerful argument against sexual uncleanness. \D\ is a shortened form of \d\ and is an urgent inferential particle. See on ¯Luke:2:15|. Paul holds to his high ideal of the destiny of the body and urges glorifying God in it. Some of the later Christians felt that Paul's words could be lightened a bit by adding "and in your spirits which are his," but these words are found only in late MSS. and are clearly not genuine. Paul's argument stands four-square for the dignity of the body as the sanctuary of the Holy Spirit united to the Lord Jesus.

rwp@John:4:7 @{There cometh} (\erchetai\). Vivid historical present as in verse 5|. {A woman of Samaria} (\gun ek ts Samarias\). The country, not the city which was two hours away. {To draw water} (\antlsai hudr\). First aorist active infinitive of purpose of \antle\ for which see strkjv@2:8f|. Cf. Rebecca in strkjv@Genesis:24:11,17|. {Give me to drink} (\dos moi pein\). Second aorist active imperative of \didmi\ and second aorist active infinitive (object of \dos\) of \pin\, shortened form of \piein\. A polite request.
