Word Pictures in the New Testament - Luke Word Pictures in the New Testament - Luke Author(s): Robertson, A. T. (1863-1934) Publisher: Grand Rapids, MI: Christian Classics Ethereal Library Description: A. T. Robertson was a renowned Greek New Testament scholar. His work on the Greek language is still consulted today. Word Pictures in the New Testament is his insightful treatment of that book. In the Greek New Testament, there are a variety of meaningful pictorial nuances implicit in the Greek constructions. These nuances are often lost in trans- lation. Word Pictures in the New Testament explains them. Robertson examines Greek constructions from many different Testament passages. He provides background to many of the Greek words and their connotations in the original Greek, thereby shedding new light on the meaning of passages. Many readers have gained a new, richer understanding of the New Testament by studying Word Pictures in the New Testament. And although no technical knowledge is required to study this work, familiarity with the Greek language makes this work much easier to digest. Consequently, it is ideal for pastors, theologians, and students of the New Testament.

Here alone in the N.T., though common in literary Attic. Appears in the papyri. A triple compound [epei] = since, [dē] = admittedly true, [per] = in- tensive particle to emphasize importance). Many [polloi]. How many no one knows, but certainly more than two or three. We know that Luke used the Logia of Jesus written by Matthew in Aramaic (Papias) and Mark’s Gospel. Undoubtedly he had other written sources. Have taken in hand [epecheirēsan]. A literal translation of [epicheireō] (from [cheir], hand and [epi], upon). Both Hippocrates and Galen use this word in their introduction to their medical works. Here only in the N.T., though a common literary word. Common in the papyri for undertaking with no idea of failure or blame. Luke does not mean to cast reflection on those who preceded him. The apocryphal gospels were all much later and are not in his mind. Luke had secured fuller information and planned a book on a larger scale and did surpass them with the result that they all perished save Mark’s Gospel and what Matthew and Luke possess of the Logia of Jesus. There was still room for Luke’s book. That motive influences every author and thus progress is made. To draw up, a narrative [anataxasthai diēgēsin]. Ingressive aorist middle infinitive. This verb [anataxasthai] has been found only in Plutarch’s Moral. 968 CD about an elephant “rehearsing” by moonlight certain tricks it had been taught (Moulton and Milligan, Vocabulary). That was from memory going regularly through the thing again. But the idea in the word is plain enough. The word is composed of [tassō], a common verb for arranging things in proper order and [ana], again. Luke means to say that those before him had made attempts to rehearse in orderly fashion various matters about Christ. “The expression points to a connected series of narratives in some order [taxis], topical or chronological rather than to isolated narratives” (Bruce). “They had pro- duced something more than mere notes or anecdotes” (Plummer). [Diēgēsis] means leading or carrying a thing through, not a mere incident. Galen applies this word some seventy-five times to the writing of Hippocrates. Which have been fulfilled [tōn peplērōphorēmenōn]. Perfect passive participle from [plērophoreō] and that from [plērēs] (full) and [pherō] (to bring). Hence to bring or make full. The verb is rare outside of the LXX and the N.T. Papyri examples occur for finishing off a legal matter or a financial matter in full. Deissmann (Light from the Ancient East, pp. 86f.) gives examples from the papyri and inscriptions for complet- ing a task or being convinced or satisfied in mind. The same ambiguity occurs here. When used of persons in the N.T. the meaning is to be convinced, or fully persuaded (Ro 4:21; 14:5; Heb 6:11; 10:22). When used of things it has the notion of completing or finishing (2Ti 4:5, 17). Luke is here speaking of “matters” [pragmatōn]. Luke may refer to the matters connected with Christ’s life which have been brought to a close among us or accomplished. Bruce argues plausibly that he means fulness of knowledge “concerning the things which have become widely known among us Christians.” In Col 2:2 we have “fulness of understand- 2 Chapter 1 ing” [tēs plērophorias tēs suneseōs]. In modern Greek the verb means to inform. The careful language of Luke here really pays a tribute to those who had preceded him in their narratives concerning Christ. 1:2 Even as [kathōs]. This particle was condemned by the Atticists though occurring occasionally from Aristotle on. It is in the papyri. Luke asserts that the previous narratives had their sound basis. Delivered unto us [paredōsan hēmin]. Second aorist active indicative of [paradidōmi]. Luke received this tradition along with those who are mentioned above (the many). That is he was not one of the “eyewitnesses.” He was a secondary, not a primary, witness of the events. Tradition has come to have a meaning of unreliability with us, but that is not the idea here. Luke means to say that the handing down was dependable, not mere wives’ fables. Those who drew up the narratives had as sources of knowledge those who handed down the data. Here we have both written and oral sources. Luke had access to both kinds. Which from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word [hoi ap’ archēs autoptai kai hupēretai genomenoi tou logou]. “Who” is better than “which” for the article here. The word for eyewitnesses [autoptai] is an old Greek word and appears in the papyri also. It means seeing with one’s own eyes. It occurs here only in the N.T. We have the very word in the medical term autopsy.Greek medical writers often had the word. It is a different word from [epoptai] (eyewitness) in 2Pe 1:16, a word used of those who beheld heavenly mysteries. The word for “ministers” [hupēretai], under rowers or servants we have had already in Mt 5:25; 26:58; Mr 14:54, 65, which see. We shall see it again in Lu 4:20 of the attendant in the synagogue. In the sense of a preacher of the gospel as here, it occurs also in Ac 26:16. Here “the word” means the gospel message, as in Ac 6:4; 8:4, etc. From the beginning apparently refers to the beginning of the ministry of Jesus as was true of the apostles (Ac 1:22) and of the early apostolic preaching (Ac 10:37-43). The Gospel of Mark follows this plan. The Gospel of Luke goes behind this in chapters 1 and 2 as does Matthew in chapters 1 and 2. But Luke is not here referring to himself. The matters about the childhood of Jesus Christ would not form part of the traditional preaching for obvious reasons. 1:3 It seemed good to me also [edoxe kamoi]. A natural conclusion and justification of Luke’s decision to write his narrative. They had ample reason to draw up their narratives. Luke has more reason to do so because of his fuller knowledge and wider scope. Having traced the course of all things [parēkolouthēkoti pāsin]. The perfect active participle of a common verb of the ancient Greek. Literally it means to follow along a thing in mind, to trace carefully. Both meanings occur abundantly in the ancient Greek. Cadbury (Appendix C to Beginnings of Christianity, Vol. II, pp. 489ff.) objects to the translation “having traced” here as implying research which the word does not here mean.

  • Christian Names for Catholic Boys and Girls
    CHRISTIAN NAMES FOR CATHOLIC BOYS AND GIRLS CHRISTIAN NAMES FOR CATHOLIC BOYS AND GIRLS The moment has arrived to choose a Christian name for the baptism of a baby boys or girl. What should the child be called? Must he/she receive the name of a saint? According to the revised Catholic Church Canon Law, it is no longer mandatory that the child receive the name of a saint. The Canon Law states: "Parents, sponsors and parish priests are to take care that a name is not given which is foreign to Christian sentiment." [Canon # 855] In other words, the chosen name must appeal to the Christian community. While the names of Jesus and Judas are Biblical in nature, the choice of such names would result in controversy. To many, the Name Jesus is Sacred and the Most Holy of all names. Because Judas is the disciple who betrayed Jesus, many feel this would be a poor choice. Equally, names such as 'cadillac' or 'buick' are not suitable because they represent the individual person's personal interest in certain cars. The following is a short list of names that are suitable for boys and girls. Please keep in mind that this list is far from complete. NAMES FOR BOYS Aaron (Heb., the exalted one) Arthur (Celt., supreme ruler) Abel (Heb., breath) Athanasius (Gr., immortal) Abner (Heb., father of light) Aubrey (Fr., ruler) Abraham (Heb., father of a multitude) Augustine (Dim., of Augustus) Adalbert (Teut., nobly bright) Augustus (Lat., majestic) Adam (Heb., the one made; human Austin (Var., of Augustine) being; red earth) Adelbert (Var., of Adalbert) Baldwin (Teut., noble friend) Adrian (Lat., dark) Barnabas (Heb., son of consolation) Aidan (Celt., fire) Barnaby (Var., of Bernard) Alan (Celt., cheerful) Bartholomew (Heb., son of Tolmai) Alban (Lat., white) Basil (Gr., royal) Albert (Teut., illustrious) Becket (From St.

  • Architecture for Informal Tourism - Mild Occupation of Landscape Through Campsites
    Athens Journal of Tourism - Volume 2, Issue 4 – Pages 223-240 Architecture for Informal Tourism - Mild Occupation of Landscape through Campsites By Xavier Martín Tost The IAM Research group (Investigation in Mediterranean Architecture), from the La Salle-Ramon Llull University in Barcelona, is developing its research on the architecture of touristic settlements. Its aim is to regenerate the coast of Catalonia by examining the close relationship between heritage and landscape. Part of this research has been developed through case studies of campsite settlements as a typology of the mild occupation of natural environment. Main particularity of this kind of settlements is that their implantation in landscape is based on a duality between formal designs provided by architects and informal occupation developed by users in their private plots. In order to recognize qualities of these lightweight and dual architectures of the 1960s, this paper is focused on a comparison between two examples which landscapes are completely opposite. The aim of this research is to raise awareness of the values of these kind of settlements: temporality, nature and informal occupancy. Keywords: Campsite, Informal tourism, Landscape preservation, Mediterranean architecture, Temporary cities. Introduction The aim of the IAM Group (Investigation on Mediterranean Architecture, La Salle – Ramon Llull University) is to analyse and publish information about the architecture of Mediterranean coast, related to both site planning and building construction. Since 2008, the IAM Group has been collaborating with different organizations and institutions, both public and private, related to general topics of the same context. The group is currently developing an R&D project called "Strategies for the Sustainable Regeneration of Tourism Settlements in the Mediterranean coast" (IAM 2012-14).

  • History of the Fan
    History Of The Fan By George Woolliscroft Rhead History Of The Fan CHAPTER I THE ORIGIN AND USES OF THE FAN IN the beginning, before the human advent, when the earth was peopled only by the Immortals, a bright son was born to Aurora, whose soft and agreeable breath was as honey in the mouth of the gods, and the beating of whose gossamer wings imparted a delicious coolness to the air, moderating the heat of summer, and providing the first suggestion of, and occasion for, the dainty little plaything we have under consideration, somewhat waggishly described as a kind of wind instrument, not, perhaps, so much to be played upon as to be played with, and invaluable as assisting to follow out the wisest of the Sage’s maxims when he bids us keep cool. This delicate toy, this airy creation of gauze, ivory, and paint, frail and fragile almost as the flowers kissed by Aurora’s son, endowed apparently with the gift of perpetual youth, may claim a lineage older than the Pyramids; having its origin and being in the infancy of the world, before the birth of history, in that golden age when life was a perpetual summer, and care was not, when all was concord and harmony, and old age, long protracted, was dissolved in a serene slumber, and wafted to the mansions of the gods, the regions of eternal love and enjoyment. It was in these halcyon days that the human family sat in its palm groves, which afforded not only refreshing shade, during the hours when the sun is at its height, but also provided the precursor of this ‘Servant of Zephyrus’—serving further to temper those beams which are the source of all life, and light, and music, for are not all the learned agreed with the late Mr.
