Acts 1:1 dedication of both writings to Theophilus, but their unity of language and style is regarded by critics of all schools as convincing proof of the identity of authorship of Acts and the third Gospel; see Introd. and Zöckler, Greifswalder Studien , p. 128 (1895). In the expression πρῶτος λόγος Ramsay finds an intimation from St. Luke’s own hand that he contemplated a third book at least, otherwise we should have had πρότερος λόγος , St. Paul the Traveller , pp. 23, 27, 28; see to the same effect
Acts 2:42 pair may be taken as expressing rather their relation to man, the second their relation to God (Nösgen). Dr. Hort, while pointing out that the first term τῇ διδαχῇ τῶν ἀποστόλων (“the teaching,” R.V., following Wycliffe; cf. Matthew 7:28 , “doctrine,” A.V., which would refer rather to a definite system, unless taken in the sense of the Latin doctrina, teaching ) was obviously Christian, so that the disciples might well be called scribes to the kingdom, bringing out of their
Acts 2:9-11 Jews of the Dispersion, and Schürer (see too Schöttgen) well parallels the description given here of the extent of the Diaspora with the description in Agrippa’s letter to the Emperor Caligula given by Philo ( Legat. ad Gaium , 36. Mang., ii., 587). All commentators seem to be agreed in regarding the list as framed to some extent on geographical lines, beginning from Parthia the furthest east. Mr. Page holds that the countries named may be regarded as grouped not only geographically but historically.
Acts 6:3 “look ye out,” cf. σκέπτεσθαι in Genesis 41:33 . μαρτυρουμένους , cf. Hebrews 11:2 ; Hebrews 11:39 ; Hebrews cf.4, 5, and 1 Timothy 5:10 , Acts 10:22 ; Acts 22:12 , also Acts 16:2 ; cf. its use also in Clem. Rom., Cor [193] , Acts 17:1 ; Acts 18:1 , etc.; Ignat., Phil. , xi., 1; Ephes. , xii. 2. See also the interesting parallels in Deissmann, Neue Bibelstudien , p. 93. In Jos., Ant. , iii., 2, 5, and xv., 10, 5, it is used as here, but of hostile testimony in Matthew 23:31 , John 18:23
Romans 11 overview
CHAPTERS 9 11. With the eighth chapter Paul concludes the positive exposition of his gospel. Starting with the theme of Romans 1:16 f., he showed in Romans 1:18 to Romans 3:20 the universal sinfulness of men Gentile and Jew; in Romans 3:21 to Romans 5:21 he explained, illustrated and glorified the gospel of justification by faith in Christ, set forth by God as a propitiation for sin; in Romans 6:1 to Romans
Romans 11 overview Capítulo S 9 11. Con el octavo capítulo Pablo concluye la exposición positiva de su evangelio. Comenzando con el tema de Romanos 1:16 y sig., mostró en Romanos 1:18 a Romanos 3:20 la pecaminosidad universal de los hombres gentiles y judíos; en Romanos 3:21 a Romanos 5:21 explicó, ilustró y glorificó el evangelio de la justificación por la fe en Cristo, presentado por Dios como propiciación por el pecado; en
Romans 9:4 relations between God and man ( e.g. in 2 Corinthians 3:0 ): here, where αἱ διαθῆκαι is expressly distinguished from ἡ νομοθεσία (the great Sinaitic legislation: 2Ma 6:23 ), the various covenants God made with the patriarchs must be meant. Cf. Wis 18:22 , Sir 44:11 , 2Ma 8:15 . ἡ λατρεία is the cultus of the tabernacle and the temple, the only legitimate cultus in the world. αἱ ἐπαγγελίαι are the Messianic promises: in the Israelitish religion “the best was yet to be,” as all the highest
Romans 9:4 entre Dios y el hombre ( por ejemplo , en 2 Corintios 3 ): aquí, donde αἱ διαθῆκαι se distingue expresamente de ἡ νομοθεσία (el gran legislación sinaítica: 2Ma 6:23), se deben significar los diversos pactos que Dios hizo con los patriarcas.
Cf. Sab 18:22, Sir 44:11, 2Ma 8:15. ἡ λατρεία es el culto del tabernáculo y del templo, el único culto legítimo en el mundo. αἱ ἐπαγγελίαι son las promesas mesiánicas: en la religión israelita “lo mejor estaba por venir”, como sabían todas las mentes más elevadas.
Ephesians 1:15 interpreta como implicando que algunos en la Iglesia de Éfeso no pueden haber tenido la fe. Así la RV da en su texto “la fe… que está entre vosotros”; marg., “ en ti”. Pero las analogías a las que se hace referencia ( p. ej ., τῷ νόμῳ τῷ ὑμετέρῳ, Juan 8:17 , en contraste con νόμου τοῦ καθʼ ὑμᾶς en Hechos 18:15 ; cf.
Ell.) apenas confirman esto, y hay mucho para mostrar que la última forma se había convertido, o estaba en camino de convertirse, simplemente en una perífrasis de la primera. Frases tales
Ephesians 1:18
Ephesians 1:18 . πεφωτισμένους τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς τῆς διανοίας ὑμῶν : the eyes of your understanding (heart) being enlightened . For the διανοίας of the TR, which is very poorly attested, καρδίας is to be read (with LTTrWHRV) on the authority of the best MSS., representing
Ephesians 1:18 siendo iluminados los ojos de vuestro entendimiento (corazón) . Para el διανοίας del TR, que está muy mal atestiguado, καρδίας debe leerse (con LTTrWHRV) sobre la autoridad de los mejores manuscritos, que representan las diferentes familias ([96] [97] [98] [99] [100 ] [101] [102], etc). El ὑμῶν debe conservarse, aunque se omite en [103] 17, etc.
, y está entre paréntesis por WH. La sintaxis de la oración es difícil, pero es mejor tomarla (con AV, Bez., Beng., Bleek, Mey., etc.) como un acc. absoluto
Philippians 1:1 towards his Master. He delights to think of Him in royal dignity, the Messiah who was once Jesus being now Κύριος . For a good discussion of the respective designations Χ . Ἰ . and Ἰ . Χ ., see Von Soden in Abhandlungen C. von Weizsäcker gewidmet , p. 118. πᾶσιν τ . ἁγίοις . It is difficult to say whether πᾶσιν is emphatic or not. It is, at least, remarkable how often πᾶς appears in the opening paragraphs of this Epistle, as if to show Paul’s strict impartiality, perhaps in the face of some pretensions
Philippians 1:1 su Maestro. Se deleita en pensar en Él en dignidad real, el Mesías que una vez fue Jesús siendo ahora Κύριος. Para una buena discusión de las respectivas designaciones Χ.
Ἰ. y Ἰ. Χ., véase Von Soden en Abhandlungen C. von Weizsäcker gewidmet , p. 118. πᾶσιν τ. ἁγίοις. Es difícil decir si πᾶσιν es enfático o no. Es, al menos, notable la frecuencia con la que πᾶς aparece en los párrafos iniciales de esta Epístola, como para mostrar la estricta imparcialidad de Pablo, quizás frente a algunas pretensiones
Philippians 2:6 meaning assigned to (1) μορφή , (2) ἁρπαγμός , (3) τὸ εἶναι ἴσα Θεῷ . In LXX μορφή denotes the form, appearance, look or likeness of some one, that by which those beholding him would judge him. See Job 4:16 , Daniel 5:6 and three other places, Wis 18:1 , 4Ma 15:4 . Plainly, from the context of these passages, the word had come, in later Greek, to receive a vague, general meaning, far removed from the accurate, metaphysical content which belonged to it in writers like Plato and Aristotle. It seems,
Philippians 2:6 significado asignado a (1) μορφή, (2) ἁρπαγμός, (3) τὸ εἶναι ἴσα Θεῷ. En LXX μορφή denota la forma, apariencia, aspecto o semejanza de alguien, aquello por lo cual los que lo contemplan lo juzgarían. Véase Job 4:16 ; Daniel 5:6 y otros tres lugares, Sab 18:1, 4Ma 15:4.
Claramente, a partir del contexto de estos pasajes, la palabra había llegado, en griego posterior, a recibir un significado vago y general, muy alejado del contenido preciso y metafísico que le correspondía en escritores como Platón y Aristóteles.
Colossians 1:19
Colossians 1:19 . This verse with Colossians 1:20 shows how the Son was able to hold the position assigned to Him in Colossians 1:18 . Further, this verse leads up to Colossians 1:20 . The thought is then: All the fulness dwelt in the Son, therefore reconciliation could be accomplished through the blood of His cross, and so He became the Head of the body. εὐδόκησεν . Three views
Colossians 1:19 Este versículo con Colosenses 1:20 muestra cómo el Hijo pudo ocupar el puesto que se le asignó en Colosenses 1:18 . Además, este versículo conduce a Colosenses 1:20 .
El pensamiento es entonces: Toda la plenitud habitaba en el Hijo, por lo tanto, la reconciliación pudo realizarse a través de la sangre de Su cruz, y así Él se convirtió en la Cabeza del cuerpo.
Colossians 2:18
Colossians 2:18 . This verse gives us our only definite information, apart from which it would have been a highly probable inference, that the false teachers practised angel-worship. ὑμᾶς καταβραβευέτω . This is commonly translated “rob you of your prize”.
Hebrews 2:10-18 santifica como la mejor clave para esa conexión entre la pasión y la glorificación de Cristo que forma el punto cardinal de la revelación del NT” (Robertson Smith).
A esto sólo cabe añadir que para probar la supremacía del hombre y justificar a Salmo 8 , era imprescindible que el escritor mostrara que Cristo era hombre, identificado con la humanidad.
En justificación entonces (justificación introducida por γὰρ) de la sujeción de Jesús a la πάθημα θανάτου, el escritor procede a decir ἔπρεπεν αὐτῷ “le
Hebrews 2:14-16 God. [Among the races whose conscience was not educated by the law, views of death varied greatly. These will be found in Geddes’ Phaedo , pp. 217, 223; and cf. the opening paragraphs of the third Book of the Republic , as well as pp. 330 and 486 B. Aristotle with his usual straightforward frankness pronounces death φοβερώτατον . On the other hand, many believed τεθνάμεναι βέλτιον ἢ βίοτος ; Hegesias was styled ὁ πεισιθάνατος , and by his persuasions and otherwise suicide became popular; and
