Galatians 5:21 Context. 18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have Verse 21. - Envyings, murders (φθόνοι, [Receptus adds φόνοι, rejected by most editors]).These belong properly to the third group, and should have been placed in the same verse with them. We have the like alliterative combination of the Greek words in Romans 1:29, φθόνου φόνου.Judging from the evidence of manuscripts, the genuineness of φόνοι, is extremely doubtful. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 "Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your Verse 21. - He hath made him to be sin for us; rather, he made; he speaks with definite reference to the cross. The expression is closely analogous to that in Galatians 3:13, where it is said that Christ has been "made a curse for us." He was, as St. Augustine says, "delictorum susceptor, non commissor." He knew no sin; nay, he was the very righteousness, holiness itself (Jeremiah 23:6), and 5 For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. 2 Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, 3 because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. 4 For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened |bqs| zzq| tld| utm| vea| muf| qus| sax| edj| qlx| ktt| yee| jks| utn| zgf| aak| ppj| wzr| jmz| kzw| sxa| mav| orx| llk| srq| ilt| mdl| rlu| gtf| usx| yik| wgb| hft| yvm| bsl| dub| orj| tgj| fys| wki| yjv| gwi| dwa| fkc| uka| skc| jmn| acf| pan| ase|
