Word Pictures in the NT [Luke: Chapter 17]. this night," when Christ comes. 17:35 {Shall be grinding} (\esontai al•thousai\). Periphrastic future active indicative of \al•th•\, an old verb only in the N.T. here and Mt 24:41. {Together} (\epi to auto\). In the same place, near together as in Ac 2:1. 17:37 {The eagles} (\hoi aetoi\). Or the vultures attracted by the carcass. This proverb is quoted also in Mt 24:28. See Job 39:27-30; Heb 1:8; Ho 8:1. Double compound (\epi-sun-\) in \epi-sun-achth•sontai\ completes the picture.

Word Pictures in the NT [Luke: Chapter 18]. [Table of Contents] [Previous] [Next] 18:1 {To the end that} (\pros to dein\). {With a view to the being necessary}, \pros\ and the articular infinitive. The impersonal verb \dei\ here is in the infinitive and has another infinitive loosely connected with it \proseuchesthai\, to pray. {Not to faint} (\m• enkakein\). Literally, not to give in to evil (\en, kake•\, from \kakos\, bad or evil), to turn coward, lose heart, behave badly. A late verb used several times in the N.T. (2Co 4:1,16, etc.). 18:2 Regarded not (\m• entrepomenos\). Present middle participle of \entrep•\, old verb, to turn one on himself, to shame one, to reverence one. This was a "hard-boiled" judge who knew no one as his superior. See on ¯Mt 21:37. 18:3 {Came oft} (\•rcheto\). Imperfect tense denotes repetitions, no adverb for "oft" in the Greek. {Avenge me of} (\ekdik•son me apo\). A late verb for doing justice, protecting one from another (note both \ek\ and \apo\, here). Deissmann (_Light from the Ancient East_, pp. 420ff.) quotes a \st•l•\ of the second century B.C. with a prayer for vengeance for a Jewish girl that had been murdered which has this very verb \ekdike•\. 18:4 {He would not} (\ouk •thelen\). Imperfect tense of continued refusal. {Though} (\ei kai\). Concerning sentence, not \kai ei\ (even if). 18:5 {Yet} (\ge\). Delicate intensive particle of deep feeling as here. {Because this widow troubleth me} (\dia to parechein moi kopon t•n ch•ran taut•n\). Literally, because of the furnishing me trouble as to this widow (accusative of general reference with the articular infinitive). {Lest she wear me out} (\hina m• hup•piaz•i me\). Some take it that the judge is actually afraid that the widow may come and assault him, literally beat him under the eye. That idea would be best expressed here by the aorist tense. 18:6 {The unrighteous judge} (\ho krit•s t•s adikias\). The judge of unrighteousness (marked by unrighteousness), as in 16:8 we http://www.ccel.org/r/robertson_at/wordpictures/htm/LU18.RWP.html (1 of 7) [28/08/2004 09:05:48 a.m.] Word Pictures in the New Testament (Luke: Chapter 18)
