Having looked at the Tauchnitz New Testament that MacDonald mentions, I think that one possibility is that he means Matthew 17:21 and Mark 9:29. Matthew 17:21: “Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.”The apparatus lists S*V as omit…
Credit to Michael for arriving at the same independently. (Though I didn’t quite understand his comment about “the translation’s ‘uplifting'”, lol.)Maybe someone can post the exact manuscript text without all these (very very esteemed) editorial specu…
Impossible to say precisely of course, but basically locative, of the environment in which he was raised. Not instrumental: “he brought me up me on water”—i.e. with water—would be plain dative.Statistics: Posted by mwh — Tue Feb 04, 2025 10:09 pm

I think νῶτον acc. of respect to the enemies. “You’ve delivered my enemies to me in their rear and you have destroyed the ones hating me.”Statistics: Posted by jeidsath — Sat Feb 01, 2025 5:32 pm
Hi all, this is mind-boggling to me as well, but my first reaction was that this might be a gloss interpolation (i.e. textual corruption caused by someone copying into the main text a marginal note). A further bit of context I noted was that this sect…

Might also simply be ungrammatical Greek e.g. the translator seems to be rigidly following the word order of the Hebrew here, see https://biblehub.com/interlinear/psalms/18-40.htmStatistics: Posted by Mitch — Sat Feb 01, 2025 5:41 pm

Here’s Polybius with an aorist of the same verb, taking a dative object. After laying out the main points of the treaty:Ταῦτα μὲν οὖν ὑπετυπώθη τότε κεφαλαιωδῶς περὶ τῶν διαλύσεων· ἔδει δὲ τούτοις πρῶτον μὲν εὐδοκῆσαι τοὺς Αἰτωλούς, μετὰ δὲ ταῦτα γίνε…
I take it that he’s deploring φθόνος among his addressees. This fits with his inveighing against their internal dissensions (4.1 πόθεν πόλεμοι και πόθεν μάχαι εν ὑμιν; etc., 2 ζηλοῦτε etc., cf. 3.14 ει δε ζῆλον …) and with the rest of the letter. ζῆ…

1. Μακάριος ἀνήρ, ὃς οὐκ ἐπορεύθη ἐν βουλῇ ἀσεβῶν καὶ ἐν ὁδῷ ἁμαρτωλῶν οὐκ ἔστη καὶ ἐπὶ καθέδραν λοιμῶν οὐκ ἐκάθισεν, 2. ἀλλ’ ἢ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ κυρίου τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ αὐτοῦ μελετήσει ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός. 3. καὶ ἔσται ὡς τὸ ξύλον τὸ πεφυτευμέν…
“With regard to φθόνος” hardly fits. For πρὸς φθόνον, of course, we have LSJ.πρός.C.I.7 “πρός c.acc. freq. periphr. for Adv. …” Rather then context precluding it, God’s jealousy is in fact a frequent topic in scripture. Verse 4, with the accusation …
εἰς τόπον χλόης, ἐκεῖ με κατεσκήνωσεν, ἐπὶ ὕδατος ἀναπαύσεως ἐξέθρεψέ με- 22.2Here I’d like to know what sense you would say that ἐπὶ ὕδατος is used. Locative? Instrumental?Statistics: Posted by CMatthiasT88 — Tue Feb 04, 2025 6:03 pm

deep-seek is slightly better (careful!) :===The expression τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί (or variations like τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί, γύναι) is a well-attested phrase in ancient Greek, appearing in both biblical and non-biblical contexts. Below is a synthesis of the eviden…

Yeah, I had a post written up about the earlier πεπηγμένος, but happily Chad’s post covered it first.I can get closer to the spelling, if you’d like.So αναγκη βιαια – irresistible necessity – would be great, but you would have to imagine a dropped ver…
Hi all, just to zoom out to the broader context (and in passing I note that I agree with Michael that, when you read the whole sentence, τὸ πνεῦμα must be the object, especially given κατῴκισεν in the relative clause for which the subject must be God)…
