• Translation of the Didache 16:3-8

  
  BROADCAST DEPTH — Authority: 440
  No one got the clue from earlier I guess. Well, the answer is the Didache 16:3-8. And that is where the translation for today comes from. This is the second time I’ve translated from the Apostolic Fathers and it has definitely gotten easier. My vocabulary has definitely improved. I’m happy about that. So, without ...

• Today’s Translation: A Clue

  
  BROADCAST DEPTH — Authority: 440
  I’m still a good ways off from posting the translation for today. I guess I really need to get in the habit of translating a few verses every day rather than doing the passage all at once. Anyway, I thought I’d give you all a clue to what it’s going to be today (remember I’m translating from the Apostolic ...

  I never realized that both Matthew and Hermas use αλλην παραβολην (or some form thereof)to indicate a shift to a new parable. Matthew: Mt 13.24, 31, 33; 21.33 Hermas: Sim II; III; IV; V (Hermas 51-54 in the BCV scheme)

• Didache on being τέλειος (perfect)

  
  Ecce Homo — Authority: 463
  Interestingly, the Gospel of Matthew is not the only place where the command to τέλειος shows up. In Matthew, the idea (in the Sermon on the Mount) would seem that since God is “perfect” (in the context, he shows love to everyone), those who are part of the Jesus movement should do likewise (Matt 5.48). ...

• Translation of Polycarp, To the Philippians 7

  
  BROADCAST DEPTH — Authority: 440
  I’ve delved into the Apostolic Fathers today with this translation. I picked something short just in case I ran into any problems and had to pick something else quickly. Fortunately enough, I didn’t have to. This is really encouraging to me and my ability in Greek. Each week I’m becoming slightly more ...

While working on it earlier, I began to wonder what your favorite works from the Apostolic Fathers could be. Then I began to think what your least favorite could be. So, what of it? Which work is your favorite? And which is ...

Is there any favorite passage from these that you would like to see? Or maybe something where you’re wondering ...

• επιθυμεω and “lust”

  
  ricoblog — Authority: 453
  One problem with associating an English gloss or two with a Greek word and then proceedingto “read” a text by doing a decode-o-rama followed quickly by a de-yoda-ification(I speak as one with deep, intimate knowledge of this mystical practice) is that youend up throwing context to the wind if you’re not careful, ...
