I believe it was John MacArthur's commentary that said the word reflects a fisherman throwing his net overboard when his feet become entangled. <br /><br />I appreciated your study.A Woman that Fears the Lordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09028148446621304362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7930553747640588156.post-85727775688921123742012-01-05T20:40:42.982-08:002012-01-05T20:40:42.982-08:00Thank you for this good little study Gregg.

It's sobering to think that we too can easily "slip on the ice" - no wonder the verse ends with "Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted."<br /><br />Wishing you and Irene a wonderful year!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7930553747640588156.post-80078099060513365472012-01-05T06:25:41.680-08:002012-01-05T06:25:41.680-08:00Love these word studies, Gregg. Thanks so much. ...Love these word studies, Gregg. Thanks so much. Looking at biblos.com it appears that this word also is used in Mark 14:8 "she is come aforehand to anoint"<br /><br />I was puzzled at first by the difference between "overtaken" in Gal 6:1 and "go ahead" or "take before" in 1Cor 11:21. In thinking upon this I believe the difference is explained by the difference in the voice of the two occurences. "Active" in 1Cor 11:21 and "Passive" in Gal 6:1. <br /><br />And "Overtaken" can be understood quite differently than "caught." Caught could be construed apart from the transgression catching the man to instead and incorrectly understanding some third party catching the man in the transgression. I think you made the better choice in coming down on the side of "overtaken."Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03772782406743899142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7930553747640588156.post-63785177910379802352012-01-05T05:37:39.108-08:002012-01-05T05:37:39.108-08:00As they say you learn something every day. well do...As they say you learn something every day. well done on a super blog Gregg.<br /><br />Yvonne.RHYTHM AND RHYMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11386975261804630799noreply@blogger.com
