Things like that. Thru all my references [incl the 1550 A.D. Textus Receptus and current Nestle Greek] find the following: epsilon beta lambda eta theta eta as the actual Greek letters in the text and literally translated "cast out". However, when I look in the Strong's Concordance, Vines, George Ricker Berry dictionaries find [906]=beta alpha lambda lambda omega ,"ballo" as supposedly the Greek behind this. But it is not. Me-a sort of Greek beginner plus, know something about particles and the aorist tense. Can anyone help me??? Understand also that [1519]=eis primary preposition into/unto. Thank you Agape and peace, Ron... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Revelation {parts thereof} all fulfilled,currently applicable,still future. Many views. Many. We, USA, may be the Revelation 13:11 Beast one of them. "The" Rapture is next-NO IT IS NOT, next is Peace Treaty, NO IT IS NOT, next is.3rd/4th Temple in Jerusalem, NO NO NO...On and on, "yelling and screaming". Pretrib/posttrib/midtrib/amillennialism/preterist/historist/allegory/Revived Roman Empire/perhaps we are in "little season"...More and more. Chaos and confusion, with edification for The Church of The Jesus Christ hard to see happening. So-me is hoping "just" to learn enough New Testament Greek {thank you again for your post/Ephesians 5:20) to be less ignorant. Home one day in Our Father's House-John 14:1-3. Maranatha THE Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Pray that we all go there. Agape and peace, Ron... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
