Grotius remarks that the apostle's expression is borrowed from the theatre, where \u03c4\u03bf [Strong's G3588], \u03c3\u03c7\u03b7\u03bc\u03b1 [Strong's G4976], \u03c4\u03b7\u03c2 \u03c3\u03ba\u03b7\u03bd\u03b7\u03c2 [Strong's G4633], \u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u03b1\u03b3\u03b5\u03b9 means that the scene changes, and presents an appearance entirely new.\nI would: Psa 55:22; Mat 6:25-34, Mat 13:22; Phi 4:6\nHe that: Ti1 5:5\nthat belong to the Lord: Gr. of the Lord, as, Co1 7:34\ncareth: Neh 5:1-5; Luk 12:22; Th1 4:11, Th1 4:12; Ti1 5:8\nhow: Co1 7:3; Sa1 1:4-8; Eph 5:25-33; Col 3:19; Pe1 3:7\ncareth: Luk 2:36, Luk 2:37; Co2 7:11, Co2 7:12, Co2 8:16, Co2 11:28; Ti1 3:5; Tit 3:8\nboth: Co1 6:20; Rom 6:13, Rom 12:1, Rom 12:2; Phi 1:20; Th1 5:23\nshe that: Luk 10:40-42\nnot: This is an allusion to the Retiarius among the Romans, who carried a small casting net, rete which he endeavoured to throw over his adversary's head.

It appears most obvious to explain it of a parent, or guardian, who had the charge of a virgin; and Kypke has shown that \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u03b8\u03b5\u03bd\u03bf\u03bd \u03b1\u03c5\u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 [Strong's G847] is an elegant phrase for his virgin daughter.\nthe flower: Sa1 2:33\nhe sinneth: Co1 7:28\nthen: Co1 7:28\ndoeth better: Co1 7:1, Co1 7:8, Co1 7:26, Co1 7:32-34, Co1 7:37\nwife: Co1 7:10,Co1 7:15; Rom 7:2, Rom 7:3\nonly: Gen 6:2; Deu 7:3, Deu 7:4; Mal 2:11; Co2 6:14-16\nshe: Co1 7:1, Co1 7:8, Co1 7:26, Co1 7:35\nI think: Rather, \"I judge (or consider) also that I have the Spirit of God;\" for \u03b4\u03bf\u03ba\u03b5\u03b9\u03bd is frequently used to express not what is doubtful, but what is true and certain.
