Week 11 - 2013

Week 11 - 2013

1 Corinthians 5-6

1Co 5:9  I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with (G4874 - pifm) fornicators:

1Co 5:11  But now I have written unto you not to keep company (G4874 - pifm), if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

company - G4874 - From G4862 and a compound of G303 and G3396; to mix up together, that is, (figuratively) associate with.
  • G4862 - A primary preposition denoting union; with or together (but much closer than G3326 or G3844), that is, by association, companionship, process, resemblance, possession, instrumentality, addition, etc.
pifm - present infinitive middle (86, see 46, 50, 79).

Mood: Infinitive is a verbal noun. In Greek it has many more uses than it does in English, most of which are idiomatic and difficult to translate properly. In many instances the infinitive is translated using the English word 'to'.

Voice: Middle - represents the subject as acting in some way upon himself or concerning himself.  Since English does not have a middle voice, it is usually difficult to translate the middle voice into English.

Tense: Present Indicative - represents contemporaneous (say what?) action, as opposed to action in the past or the future. In moods other than in the indicative mood, it refers only to continuous or repeated action.

From The Complete Word Study New Testament Zodhiates.

Psalm 30-32

Job 21-22


Job 21:17 How oft is the candle of the wicked put out! and how oft cometh their destruction upon them! God distributeth sorrows in his anger.

It was the last portion which captured my attention - God distributeth sorrows in his anger.  So much for the "God loves everyone." So whose He angry with?

  • H2254 - A primitive root; to wind tightly (as a rope), that is, to bind; specifically by a pledge; figuratively to pervert, destroy; also to writhe in pain (especially of parturition).

In Deuteronomy its translated 'region' - I had to reread that and double check I'd entered the Strongs' number correctly.  Also translated country, lot, snare, portion, company, line, ropes, cords, quite an interesting list.

And following up with some of the other passages read this week - wicked people - the lost, dying, no hope....so sad.


Mark 1-2


Mar 1:44  And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

Mar 1:45  But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.


Disobedient, pride or both? How oft do I refuse to do as He commands.  O' Lord, cleanse us Your people, help us to not be conformed to this world, but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds.  That we would be steadfast and reliable soldiers of the Cross of Christ.
