rwp@3John:1:3 @{I rejoiced greatly} (\echarn lian\). As in strkjv@2John:1:4; strkjv@Phillipians:4:10|, not epistolary aorist, but reference to his emotions at the good tidings about Gaius. {When brethren came} (\erchomenn adelphn\). Genitive absolute with present middle participle of \erchomai\, and so with \marturountn\ (bare witness, present active participle of \marture\). Present participle here denotes repetition, from time to time. {To the truth} (\ti altheii\). Dative case. "As always in the Johannine writings, 'truth' covers every sphere of life, moral, intellectual, spiritual" (Brooke). {Even as thou walkest in truth} (\kaths su en altheii peripateis\). "Thou" in contrast to Diotrephes (verse 9|) and others like him. On \peripate\ see strkjv@1John:1:6| and on \en altheii\ see strkjv@2John:1:4|.

rwp@Acts:3:6 @{In the name} (\en ti onomati\). The healing power is in that name (Page) and Peter says so. Cf. strkjv@Luke:9:49; strkjv@10:17; strkjv@Acts:4:7,10; strkjv@19:27; strkjv@16:18|. {Walk} (\peripatei\). Present imperative, inchoative idea, begin to walk and then go on walking. But the beggar does not budge. He knows that he cannot walk.

rwp@Acts:3:12 @{Answered} (\apekrinato\). First aorist middle indicative. The people looked their amazement and Peter answered that. {Ye men of Israel} (\Andres Israleitai\). Covenant name and so conciliatory, the stock of Israel (Phillipians:3:5|). {At this man} (\epi touti\). Probably so, though it could be "at this thing." {Fasten you your eyes} (\atenizete\). The very verb used about Peter in verse 4|. {On us} (\hmin\). Dative case, emphatic proleptical position before \ti atenizete\. {On us why do ye fasten your eyes? As though} (\hs\). \Hs\ with the participle gives the alleged reason, not always the true one. {Power} (\dunamei\). Instrumental case, _causa effectiva_. {Godliness} (\eusebeii\). _Causa meritoria_. {Had made} (\pepoikosin\). Perfect active participle of \poie\. {To walk} (\tou peripatein\). Articular infinitive in the genitive case of result, purpose easily shading off into result (ecbatic infinitive) as here as is true also of \hina\.

rwp@Acts:14:10 @{Upright} (\orthos\). Predicate adjective. In this sense Galen and Hippocrates frequently use \orthos\ (erect, straight). Paul spoke in a loud (\megali\) voice so that all could hear and know. {He leaped up and walked} (\hlato kai periepatei\). Rather, He leaped up with a single bound and began to walk. The second aorist middle indicative (with first aorist vowel \a\) of \hallomai\ (late verb, in papyri) and inchoative imperfect active of \peripate\, common verb to walk around. This graphic picture is concealed by the usual English rendering. It is possible that Luke obtained the vivid report of this incident from Timothy who may have witnessed it and who was probably converted during Paul's stay here (16:3|). His father was a prominent Greek and his mother Eunice, possibly a widow, may have lived here with her mother Lois (2Timothy:1:5|).

rwp@John:5:8 @{Arise, take up thy bed, and walk} (\Egeire, ron ton krabatton sou kai peripatei\). Present active imperative of \egeir\, a sort of exclamation, like our "Get up." The first active imperative (\ron\ of \air\) means to pick up the pallet, and then "go on walking" (present active imperative of \peripate\). For \krabatton\ (pallet) see strkjv@Mark:2:2-12; strkjv@6:55; strkjv@Acts:5:15; strkjv@9:33|.

rwp@John:5:9 @{Took up his bed and walked} (\re ton krabatton autou kai periepatei\). The same distinction in tenses in the same verbs preserved, punctiliar action in \re\ (first aorist active of \air\, took it up at once) and linear act (imperfect active of \peripate\, went on walking). {The sabbath on that day} (\sabbaton en ekeini ti hmeri\). The first of the violations of the Sabbath rules of the Jews by Jesus in Jerusalem that led to so much bitterness (cf. strkjv@9:14,16|). This controversy will spread to Galilee on Christ's return there (Mark:2:23-3:6; strkjv@Matthew:12:1-14; strkjv@Luke:6:1-11|).

rwp@John:6:66 @{Upon this} (\ek toutou\). Same idiom in strkjv@19:12|. "Out of this saying or circumstance." Jesus drew the line of cleavage between the true and the false believers. {Went back} (\aplthon eis ta opis\). Aorist (ingressive) active indicative of \aperchomai\ with \eis ta opis\, "to the rear" (the behind things) as in strkjv@18:6|. {Walked no more with him} (\ouketi met' autou periepatoun\). Imperfect active of \peripate\. The crisis had come. These half-hearted seekers after the loaves and fishes and political power turned abruptly from Jesus, walked out of the synagogue with a deal of bluster and were walking with Jesus no more. Jesus had completely disillusioned these hungry camp-followers who did not care for spiritual manna that consisted in intimate appropriation of the life of Jesus as God's Son.
