1 | The word "come!" is a call to action? | Rev 6:1 | dondee | 90427 | ||
My small-group leader and I dissagree about the contextual use of the word "come!" (as used in 9 translations. I contend that the context with which the word is used means "come and see" (as used in 6 other translations). John was being called to "see what was going to be" as with the previous chapters, and not the "creature" speaking to the horseman into action. I believe that all of the traslations are correct. That is the word "come" can be used in such a context as to mean "come and see or behold". Whereas it would not be correct to use the words "come and see" to mean calling one to action. |

2 | The word "come!" is a call to action? | Rev 6:1 | Searcher56 | 90434 | ||
Word study ... Come - Erchomai (Strong's 2064) ... dondee, greetings ... I suggest look at the Greek (English does a poor job at times)... Erchomai middle voice of a primary verb (used only in the present and imperfect tenses, the others being supplied by a kindred [middle voice] eleuthomai (el-yoo'-thom-ahee), or [active] eltho (el'-tho), which do not otherwise occur). Emmaus covered the context well. |
