1 | The Sons of God in Genesis 6:1-4 | Genesis | Jesusman | 32455 | ||
Hello Tim, Sorry about waiting to say this, I've been doing more research. It has bearing on this topic in greek and Jude 7. According to Walter Bauer in his lexicon, "outos" in a substantival usage will reference something or someone "that has immediately preceeded". Also, whatever "outos" is referencing will have just been mentioned. With that, and given the pronoun's need to follow the gender of the noun it is referring to, then "toutois" in jude 7 must be neuter and referring to "Sodom and Gammorah". Especially concidering that "sodom and Gammorah" immediately preceeds "toutois" in relation to "angels". Jesusman |

Greetings Jesusman! My only problem with taking 'toutois' as a neuter is that I have found any source yet that parse it in that way. I have also found many sources which say that it refers to the angels of v. 6, including the late great A. T. Robertson. Either way, my only point was that one can make a case for either side of this particular arguement. Neither of which is totally convincing. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
