1 | Is it necessarily a threat? | Matt 26:24 | Ray | 105519 | ||
Would someone knowledgeable in Greek (like Tim Moran) like to comment on this verse? I wonder if there is anything in the Greek that would tell us if the sentence deals with the feelings of Judas or not. From the heart, Ray |

2 | Is it necessarily a threat? | Matt 26:24 | Morant61 | 105521 | ||
Greetings Ray! I'm not sure if the Greek reveals anything special about this verse other than the fact that 'woe' isn't used of how someone feels, but is used in the sense of a denunciation. It is used 44 times in the Gospels (46 times in the New Testament total) and is always used in the Gospels in contexts involving judgement. So, I would defnitely say that the 'woe' refers to the judgement the betrayer will face, not how he would feel about what he did. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

3 | Is it necessarily a threat? | Matt 26:24 | Ray | 105523 | ||
Hi Tim, Thank you. I wasn't looking at the first part of the verse especially, so that is a good point. However, when I looked at the word woe in Strong's #3759 it said, "a prim. interj.: alas! woe! (an expression of grief or denunciation):--woe (46), woes (1). That still leaves it open to certainly a denunciation but not necessarily a judgement. 1) I wonder if you would comment on the NASB margin for Matthew 26:24, "It would have been good [Lit. for him if that man had not been born]. From the heart, Ray |

4 | Is it necessarily a threat? | Matt 26:24 | Morant61 | 105584 | ||
Greetings Ray! Concerning 'woe' my friend, check out the context of all it's occurances in the Gospels and it definitely seems that there is an element of judgement associated with the word. Concerning the last clause, I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for in terms of comments. The last clause simply says: 'good was to him if not he was born the man that one'. If you could clarify what you are looking for, perhaps I can help! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
