Re: Comparison: Positive as Comparative
I do not have access to the ECM Just an FYI, but everyone has access to the ECM of Mark and Acts - http://ntvmr.uni-muenster.de/ecm The ECM is dual-published when it comes to the apparatus (hence any corrections will appear on the online apparatus before another printing); only the studies and supp...

Re: Romans 14:14
The LXX usage is a good place to research. So, if Paul meant unclean, he did not use LXX vocabulary. Next step, looking at a research tool to look further at NT usage. Here is a relevant snippet from Silva's NIDNTTE: ...[snip long quote]... Thus by the time of the NT it appears that this was a comm...

Re: Romans 14:14
Words usually have a range of meanings depending on their context. So both of the people you cite are referring to common usages of κοινὸν. It can also be used to refer to things which are shared in common. In the context of the passage you cite (Rom 14:14- not 7) it is used in the sense of profane...

Re: ἔγειρε semantics and orthography--how would you parse this?
Also interesting are all of the early quotes from Church fathers where we find ἔγειραι when quoting NT texts. We would need to ask, of course, if Chrysostom, Eusebius, Origen, et al. themselves wrote ἔγειραι or was this the result of later textual transmission? If we take the texts as given, it wou...

Re: ἔγειρε semantics and orthography--how would you parse this?
As the new ECM for Mark was only released a couple of months ago, thought this might be a good use of it, to see if it can help answer such a question. Of the 176 manuscripts checked, the results are certainly interesting. Firstly, the Papyri and Uncials (4-11th Century CE): 𝔓 88 ℵ A B C D G K L N U...

Re: ἔγειρε semantics and orthography--how would you parse this?
Interestingly, in Lectionary 299 (the upper text of Codex Zachynthius), which is mainly Byzantine (at least in Mark, the only portion I've checked), in all five of the Markan passages (2:9, 11; 3:3; 5:41; 10:49) the copyist has written ἔγειρε as opposed to ἔγειραι. There is only one other place (in ...

The following webpage gives some native-Greek examples (plus it has a comment from a certain someone who also posts a B-Greek):

Re: εἰς μακράν in Acts 2:39 - "far off" in the FUTURE?
C. K. Barrett says: εἰς μακράν is not, as is sometimes claimed, a Semitism; see the many parallels given in Wettstein, and in LS 1074. Most of the classical parallels have μακράν in the sense of distant time, and this might suggest that Peter’s meaning is ‘your immediate offspring and more distant g...
