Romans 11:2 means to say that God knew what Israel was before He chose it, and therefore cannot cast it off as if its unbelief had disappointed Him; He knew from the first what it would be. To plead thus for God is too paltry. We must take προέγνω as in Romans 8:29 : the meaning is, Israel stood before God’s eyes from eternity as His people, and in the immutableness of the sovereign love with which He made it His lies the impossibility of its rejection. The idea is the same as in Romans 11:29 below. ἢ
Romans 15:5 Pablo vuelve a su punto en una oración: el Dios de la paciencia y de la consolación de la que acabamos de hablaros os conceda, etc. Romanos 12:16 , donde, sin embargo, τὸ αὐτὸ φρονεῖν con εἰς ἀλλήλους no es exactamente lo mismo.
Pablo desea aquí que las mentes de sus lectores, su juicio moral y su temperamento, sean determinados por Jesucristo (por κατὰ, expresando la regla según la cual, véase el cap. Romanos 8:27 ): en este caso habrá la armonía que las disputas del cap. 14 perturbado.
1 Corinthians 1:23 what the app. preach for their good news! “To Jews indeed a σκάνδαλον ”: this word (cl [237] σκανδάληθρον ) signified first the trap-stick , then any obstacle over which one stumbles to one’s injury, an “offence” (syn [238] with προσκοπή , πρόσκομμα : see 1 Corinthians 8:9 ; 1 Corinthians 8:13 ), a moral hindrance presented to the perverse or the weak (see parls.). τοῖς δὲ ἔθνεσιν μωρίαν : for the “folly” of offering the infelix lignum to cultured Gentiles,
1 Corinthians 11:2 of his own mind: “Now I praise you that [as you say] ‘in all things you remember me, and hold fast the instructions as I delivered them to you’ ”. For such adoption by P. of the words of his readers, see notes on 1 Corinthians 8:1 ff. Self-esteem characterised this Church (1 Corinthians 4:8 ff., 1 Corinthians 5:2 ); the declaration was sincere, and contained a measure of truth; P. accepts it for what it is worth. δέ , introducing the new topic, marks also the connexion between
1 Corinthians 16:13-14 (see Colossians 1:11 , 1 Timothy 6:16 ): “be [not merely strong, but] mighty ”. The four impvs. of 1 Corinthians 16:13 are directed respectively against the heedlessness, fickleness, childishness , and moral enervation of the Cor [2678] : the fifth “All your doings, let them be done (or carried on: γινέσθω ) in love” reiterates the appeal of chh. 8 and 13 touching the radical fault of this Church; see also 1 Corinthians 2:3 , 1 Corinthians 4:6 , 1Co 6:1-8 , 1 Corinthians
1 Corinthians 2:7 and are “babes in Christ” (1 Corinthians 3:1 ff.); to the App., and those like them (1 Corinthians 2:10 ff.), a full disclosure is made. When he “speaks wisdom among the ripe,” P. is not setting forth esoteric doctrines diff [348] from those preached to beginners, but the same “word of the cross” for he knows nothing greater or higher (Galatians 6:14 ) in its recondite meaning and larger implications, as, e.g. , in 1 Corinthians 15:20-27 of this Ep. (where he relents
1 Corinthians 2:7 revelador y son “niños en Cristo” ( 1 Corintios 3:1 ss.); a la App., y aquellos como ellos ( 1 Corintios 2:10 ff.
), se hace una divulgación completa. Cuando “habla sabiduría entre los maduros”, P. no está enunciando doctrinas esotéricas distintas [348] de las predicadas a los principiantes, sino la misma “palabra de la cruz” porque no conoce nada más grande ni superior ( Gálatas 6:14 ). en su significado recóndito e implicaciones más amplias, como, por ejemplo ,

1 Corinthians 6:12 stands twice here, and twice in 1 Corinthians 10:23 ; P. harps on the saying in a way to indicate that it was a watchword with some Cor [965] party perhaps amongst both Paulinists and Apollonians; his μοι endorses the declaration ( cf. 1 Corinthians 8:8 f., 1 Corinthians 10:23 ff., Romans 14:14 ; Romans 14:20 ). Very likely it had been quoted in the Church Letter. This sentence, like those of 1Co 2:14 , 1 Corinthians 3:21 , 1 Corinthians 4:1 (see notes), recalls the attributes of the Stoic ideal
1 Corinthians 9:2-3 9:2-3 . If not at Corinth amongst those who cried “I am of Cephas,” elsewhere Paul’s apostleship was denied by the Judaistic party, against whom he had afterwards to write 2 Corinthians 10. ff. In this trial he counts on the Cor [1278] standing by him: “If to others I am no apostle, at any rate ( ἀλλά γε , at certe, Bz [1279] ) I am to you ”. He does not say “of others,” as though distinguishing two fields of jurisdiction in the sense of Galatians 2:8 ,
2 Corinthians 11:24 Deuteronomio 25:3 ); y, para estar seguros, era costumbre en los azotes judiciales de las sinagogas ( Mateo 23:34 ; Hechos 22:19 ) detenerse en treinta y nueve. Este castigo fue tan severo que a menudo sobrevino la muerte (cf. Josefo, Antt. , iv., 8, 21); no sabemos nada de las circunstancias bajo las cuales fue infligido a San Pablo.
2 Corinthians 11:29 τίς ἀσθενεῖ κ. τ. λ.: quien es débil, sc. , en prejuicio (como en Romanos 14:1 ; 1 Corintios 8:11 ), y no soy débil, es decir , en simpatía cristiana ( cf. 1 Corintios 9:22 ἐγενόμην τοῖς ἀσθενέσιν ἀσθενής); ¿A quién se le hace tropezar, y yo no me quemo? i.
mi. , con fuego de justa indignación ( cf. πυρωθείς = “inflamado” en 2Ma 4:38). La palabra
2 Corinthians 12:2 whether in the body, I know not; or whether out of the body, I know not (the words distinctly indicate St. Paul’s belief that perception is possible for a disembodied spirit); God knoweth such an one caught up to the third heaven. Cf. Ezekiel 8:3 . “The Spirit lifted me between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem.” The date of this trance must have been about 41 or 42 A.D., years of which we have no details so far as St. Paul’s life
Galatians 5:14 πεπλήρωται. EM. la autoridad es decisiva a favor de este perfecto contra el presente πληροῦται. El perfecto también se adopta en el pasaje paralelo Romanos 13:8 , ὁ ἀγαπῶν νόμον πεπλήρωκεν. Pues la existencia misma del amor en el corazón atestigua la realización de un acto interno previo de la voluntad.
ἐν ἑνὶ λόγῳ. El único precepto que sigue encarna en sí mismo todo el deber para con el hombre. τὸν πλησίον.
Philippians 2:15 quotation, of Deuteronomy 32:5 , ἡμάρτοσαν , οὐκ αὐτῷ τέκνα , μωμητά · γενεὰ σκολιὰ καὶ διεστραμμένη . It is impossible to say whether Paul uses τ . Θ . in the strict sense common in N.T., or whether he employs the term more loosely as in Ephesians 5:8 . The best authorities read ἄμωμα , the more usual N.T. word. ἀμωμητά may be due to μωμητά of LXX. μέσον is certainly to be read instead of ἐν μέσῳ , with all leading authorities. It is one of those adverbial expressions which, in the later language,
Colossians 3:5
Colossians 3:5 . Partially parallel to Ephesians 5:3-5 . νεκρώσατε οὖν . “Put to death, therefore” ( cf. Romans 8:13 ). The aorist implies a single decisive act. Perhaps νεκ . is chosen as a weaker word than θανατόω (Cremer, Haupt), implying the cessation of functions during life, οὖν is interesting. It seems strange that the assertions in the previous verses,
James 5:19 como en la LXX, Deuteronomio 32:1 ; Salmo 119:176 ; Ezequiel 34:4 ” (Alcalde).
ἀπὸ τῆς ἀληθείας : Cf. Marco 12:14 , … ἐπʼ ἀληθείας τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ θεοῦ διδάσκεις, esta parece ser la forma en que ἀληθεία se usa aquí, cf. Juan 3:21 ; Juan 5:33 ; Juan 8:32 .
ἐπιστρέψῃ: excepto aquí (y en el siguiente versículo) y Lucas 1:16-17 esta palabra siempre se usa intransitivamente en el NT ( cf. sin embargo , Hechos 26:18 ).
1 John 2:19 fuera del cuerpo: Estos fluidos salieron de mí, pero no eran de mí. ¿Qué es, si no fueran de mí? No estaban exigiendo de mi carne, pero apretaron mi pecho cuando estaban adentro. ἵνα, sc. ἐξῆλθαν o γέγονε τοῦτο una frecuente elipse joánica: cf.
Juan 1:8; Juan 9:3; Juan 13:18; Juan 15:25.
1 John 4:11 Aquí, como en Juan 3:16 , οὕτως puede denotar ya sea el alcance o la manera del amor de Dios “hasta tal punto”, llegando hasta tal extremo ( cf. Romanos 8:32 ); “de tal manera”, justamente, no por una amnistía fácil sino por una propiciación.
ὀφείλομεν: ver nota en 1 Juan 2:6 . Nobleza obliga . Si somos hijos de Dios, debemos tener el espíritu de nuestro Padre. Cf. Mateo 5:44-48 . Así correspondemos
Revelation 20:7-10 después del milenio, reúne un enorme ejército de paganos para sitiar la santa capital, pero es decisivamente derrotado y arrojado al lago de fuego para compartir las torturas de sus antiguos agentes. Los tiempos cambian de futuro ( Apocalipsis 20:7-8 ; Apocalipsis 20:10 b ) a aoristo ( Apocalipsis 20:9-10 a ), siendo este último ( cf. Apocalipsis 11:11 ) posiblemente debido a la influencia del idioma semítico.
Revelation 22:3 κατάθεμα, una forma rara y corrupta de κατανάθεμα = cualquier cosa maldita (lit. una maldición en sí misma, Did. Apocalipsis 16:8 ). es decir , abstracto por concreto, aquí = “una persona maldita”, así que Sal. Sol. 17:20 s. λατρεύσουσι, devoción sin restricciones y sin estropear.
