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:8:59 @{They took up stones therefore} (\ran oun lithous\). First aorist active indicative of \air\, inferential use of \oun\. The time for argument had past. {To cast at him} (\hina balsin ep' auton\). Final clause with \hina\ and the second aorist active subjunctive of \ball\. Vivid picture of a mob ready to kill Jesus, already beginning to do so. {Hid himself} (\ekrub\). Second aorist passive indicative of \krupt\. He was hidden. No Docetic vanishing, but quietly and boldly Jesus went out of the temple. His hour had not yet come. Once again three months later the Pharisees will try to kill him, but he will pass out of their hands (10:39|).
