Tim: I do appreciate your post. Iron sharpens iron. Anytime someone causes me to dig deeper into a subject and examine my evidence, my reasons, for accepting a particular interpretation of Scripture, it is an opportunity for my edification and further understanding. 'Strong's Number: 3956 'Transliterated Word: Pas 'Definition '1. individually a. each, every, any, all, the whole, everyone, all things, everything '2. collectively a. some of all types' May I ask, how do you reconcile Luke 6:30 and 2 Thessalonians 3:10? If Strongs is wrong and "some of all types" is not a valid definition of "Pas", are we indeed to encourage sloth, irresponsibility, and laziness by being indiscriminate in our giving to individuals? If the ONLY definition of "Pas" is "each, every, any, all, the whole, everyone, all things, everything", then we can ignore the plain text meaning and implications of 2 Th 3:10 and feed those who will not work. NASB Luke 6:30 "Give to everyone (Strong's# 3956) who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back." NASB 2 Thessalonians 3:10 For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either. Grace to you, Kalos |

Greetings Kalos! I just found another good example as I was looking up Marks question about the Mark of the Beast. Rev. 13:8 begins with, "All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast...". Yet, the last part of the verse reads, "...all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world." So, my contention is that Scripture always means 'all' when it says 'all', unless the text modifies the word 'all' in some manner. Of course, this is how we would also use the word in English as well. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
