VERSE Η ΚΑΙΝΗ ΔΙΑΘΗΚΗ ENGLISH NOTES
James 1:1 Ἰάκωβος, θεοῦ καὶ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ δοῦλος, ταῖς δώδεκα φυλαῖς ταῖς ἐν τῇ διασπορᾷ, χαίρειν. From James, a servant of God and Lord, Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the Diaspora, greetings. James ← Ἰάκωβος, Jacob.

Lord: no article in the Greek. See Rom 1:7, showing why we repunctuate; AV differs.
James 1:2 Πᾶσαν χαρὰν ἡγήσασθε, ἀδελφοί μου, ὅταν πειρασμοῖς περιπέσητε ποικίλοις, My brothers, consider it all joy when you fall into various trials,
James 1:3 γινώσκοντες ὅτι τὸ δοκίμιον ὑμῶν τῆς πίστεως κατεργάζεται ὑπομονήν· knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience,
James 1:4 ἡ δὲ ὑπομονὴ ἔργον τέλειον ἐχέτω, ἵνα ἦτε τέλειοι καὶ ὁλόκληροι, ἐν μηδενὶ λειπόμενοι. and let patience have a perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, not lacking anything. perfect result ← complete work.

anything ← in anything.
James 1:5 Εἰ δέ τις ὑμῶν λείπεται σοφίας, αἰτείτω παρὰ τοῦ διδόντος θεοῦ πᾶσιν ἁπλῶς, καὶ {RP P1904: οὐκ} [TR: μὴ] ὀνειδίζοντος, καὶ δοθήσεται αὐτῷ. But if anyone among you lacks wisdom, let him ask from God, who gives generously to all, and not begrudgingly, and it will be given to him. οὐκ, not (classical usage), RP P1904 F1859=6/12 (Scrivener's dfhjlm) vs. μὴ, not (non-classical usage, common in NT), TR F1859=6/12. Nearly a disparity with RP, R=7:7, the more of a disparity with the weaker manuscripts on the side of RP (hm weak?).

generously: classically, simply, plainly, openly, frankly [LS]. [MG] gives without discrimination, which ↴
James 1:6 Αἰτείτω δὲ ἐν πίστει, μηδὲν διακρινόμενος· ὁ γὰρ διακρινόμενος ἔοικεν κλύδωνι θαλάσσης ἀνεμιζομένῳ καὶ ῥιπιζομένῳ. And let him ask in faith, not doubting in any way, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed about. ↳ is in agreement with usage in the secular papyri, which have an emphatic whoever. But the word seems to be defined in this verse as the opposite of ὀνειδίζων, reproachingly, begrudgingly. See 2 Cor 9:11 for the noun.
James 1:7 Μὴ γὰρ οἰέσθω ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος ὅτι λήψεταί τι παρὰ τοῦ κυρίου. For let that man not think that he will receive anything from the Lord.
James 1:8 Ἀνὴρ δίψυχος, ἀκατάστατος ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ. A man in two minds is unstable in all his ways.
James 1:9 Καυχάσθω δὲ ὁ ἀδελφὸς ὁ ταπεινὸς ἐν τῷ ὕψει αὐτοῦ· And let a lowly brother boast in his high position, a lowly brother ← the lowly brother. See Gen 22:9.

high position ← height.
James 1:10 ὁ δὲ πλούσιος ἐν τῇ ταπεινώσει αὐτοῦ· ὅτι ὡς ἄνθος χόρτου παρελεύσεται. but a rich one in his low position, because he will pass away like a herbaceous flower. low position ← lowliness.
James 1:11 Ἀνέτειλεν γὰρ ὁ ἥλιος σὺν τῷ καύσωνι, καὶ ἐξήρανεν τὸν χόρτον, καὶ τὸ ἄνθος αὐτοῦ ἐξέπεσεν, καὶ ἡ εὐπρέπεια τοῦ προσώπου αὐτοῦ ἀπώλετο· οὕτως καὶ ὁ πλούσιος ἐν ταῖς πορείαις αὐτοῦ μαρανθήσεται. For the sun rises with burning heat, and it dries up the vegetation and its flower withers, and the comeliness of its appearance is lost. In this way the rich man will also fade in his pursuits. rises ← rose. Similarly dries up, withers, is lost. We take these to be gnomic aorists.

pursuits ← journeyings (through life).
James 1:12 Μακάριος ἀνὴρ ὃς ὑπομένει πειρασμόν· ὅτι δόκιμος γενόμενος λήψεται τὸν στέφανον τῆς ζωῆς, ὃν ἐπηγγείλατο ὁ κύριος τοῖς ἀγαπῶσιν αὐτόν. Blessed is the man who endures a trial, because if he is approved he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to those who love him. if: conditional use of the participle.
James 1:13 Μηδεὶς πειραζόμενος λεγέτω ὅτι Ἀπὸ {RP P1904: - } [TR: τοῦ] θεοῦ πειράζομαι· ὁ γὰρ θεὸς ἀπείραστός ἐστιν κακῶν, πειράζει δὲ αὐτὸς οὐδένα· Let no-one who is being tempted say, “I am being tempted by God.” For God is incapable of being tempted by things that are wrong, and he does not tempt anyone, τοῦ, the (God): absent in RP P1904 F1859=12/12 vs. present in TR F1859=0/12.

tempted ... tempted ... tempted ... tempt: the same Greek word does duty for to test and to tempt, so the context must decide.
James 1:14 ἕκαστος δὲ πειράζεται, ὑπὸ τῆς ἰδίας ἐπιθυμίας ἐξελκόμενος καὶ δελεαζόμενος. but everyone is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desire and is enticed,
James 1:15 Εἶτα ἡ ἐπιθυμία συλλαβοῦσα τίκτει ἁμαρτίαν· ἡ δὲ ἁμαρτία ἀποτελεσθεῖσα ἀποκύει θάνατον. then when desire has conceived, it bears sin, and sin, when it has been brought to full maturity, engenders death. engenders: if the verb is from ἀποκυέω, as in James 1:18, one would expect the accentuation to be ἀποκυεῖ. An accentuation divergence from RP P1904 TBS-TR HF NA26, but not [AnLx].
James 1:16 Μὴ πλανᾶσθε, ἀδελφοί μου ἀγαπητοί. Do not go astray, my beloved brothers.
James 1:17 Πᾶσα δόσις ἀγαθὴ καὶ πᾶν δώρημα τέλειον ἄνωθέν ἐστιν, καταβαῖνον ἀπὸ τοῦ πατρὸς τῶν φώτων, παρ' ᾧ οὐκ ἔνι παραλλαγή, ἢ τροπῆς ἀποσκίασμα. Every good act of giving and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of change.
James 1:18 Βουληθεὶς ἀπεκύησεν ἡμᾶς λόγῳ ἀληθείας, εἰς τὸ εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἀπαρχήν τινα τῶν αὐτοῦ κτισμάτων. Having willed it, he brought us forth by the word of truth, so that we should be a kind of firstfruit of his creatures.
James 1:19 Ὥστε, ἀδελφοί μου ἀγαπητοί, ἔστω πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ταχὺς εἰς τὸ ἀκοῦσαι, βραδὺς εἰς τὸ λαλῆσαι, βραδὺς εἰς ὀργήν· So, my beloved brothers, let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger, to anger ← into anger. Preposition + noun, unlike the preceding infinitives.
James 1:20 ὀργὴ γὰρ ἀνδρὸς δικαιοσύνην θεοῦ οὐ κατεργάζεται. for man's anger does not accomplish God's righteousness.
James 1:21 Διὸ ἀποθέμενοι πᾶσαν ῥυπαρίαν καὶ περισσείαν κακίας, ἐν πρᾳΰτητι δέξασθε τὸν ἔμφυτον λόγον, τὸν δυνάμενον σῶσαι τὰς ψυχὰς ὑμῶν. On account of which, set aside all sordidness and remains of wickedness, and accept with meekness the implanted word which is able to save your lives. Punctuation: P1904 does not have any commas in this verse, so it allows for associating with meekness with set aside ... .

set aside: imperatival use of the participle.

remains ← surplus.

lives ← souls.
James 1:22 Γίνεσθε δὲ ποιηταὶ λόγου, καὶ μὴ μόνον ἀκροαταί, παραλογιζόμενοι ἑαυτούς. And become doers of the word and not just hearers, deluding yourselves.
James 1:23 Ὅτι εἴ τις ἀκροατὴς λόγου ἐστὶν καὶ οὐ ποιητής, οὗτος ἔοικεν ἀνδρὶ κατανοοῦντι τὸ πρόσωπον τῆς γενέσεως αὐτοῦ ἐν ἐσόπτρῳ· For if a person is a hearer of the word but not a doer, he is like a man who takes note in a mirror of the face he is endowed with, he ← this (man).

the face he is endowed with ← the face of his genesis (origin, lineage).
James 1:24 κατενόησεν γὰρ ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἀπελήλυθεν, καὶ εὐθέως ἐπελάθετο ὁποῖος ἦν. for he takes note of himself and goes off, and immediately forgets what kind of a person he is. takes ... goes off ... forgets ... is: aorist ... perfect ... aorist ... imperfect (gnomic past tenses in Greek).
James 1:25 Ὁ δὲ παρακύψας εἰς νόμον τέλειον τὸν τῆς ἐλευθερίας καὶ παραμείνας, οὗτος οὐκ ἀκροατὴς ἐπιλησμονῆς γενόμενος ἀλλὰ ποιητὴς ἔργου, οὗτος μακάριος ἐν τῇ ποιήσει αὐτοῦ ἔσται. But he who surveys the completed law of freedom, and who stands his ground, such a person is not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of work; blessed he will be when he does it. surveys ... stands ... is: gnomic aorists, as in the previous verse; “surveys” ← stooped to look into; “is” ← having become. See Matt 23:20.

such a person ← this (man).

forgetful hearer ← hearer of forgetfulness, a Hebraic genitive.

he (second occurrence in verse)this (man).
James 1:26 Εἴ τις δοκεῖ θρῆσκος εἶναι ἐν ὑμῖν, μὴ χαλιναγωγῶν γλῶσσαν αὐτοῦ, {RP: ἀλλὰ} [P1904 TR: ἀλλ'] ἀπατῶν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ, τούτου μάταιος ἡ θρησκεία. If any man among you considers himself to be religious but cannot bridle his tongue, and he deceives his heart, his religious observance is in vain. ἀλλὰ, but (unapocopated), RP F1859=8/12 vs. ἀλλ', but (apocopated), P1904 TR F1859=4/12 (Scrivener's achm). We translate and, as the adversativity has already been introduced.

cannot bridle ← not bridling. Participles can express flexible modalities such as this.

his ← of this (man).
James 1:27 Θρησκεία καθαρὰ καὶ ἀμίαντος παρὰ {RP: - } [P1904 TR: τῷ] θεῷ καὶ πατρὶ αὕτη ἐστίν, ἐπισκέπτεσθαι ὀρφανοὺς καὶ χήρας ἐν τῇ θλίψει αὐτῶν, ἄσπιλον ἑαυτὸν τηρεῖν ἀπὸ τοῦ κόσμου. Pure and undefiled religious observance with God and the father is this: to look after orphans and widows in their affliction; to keep oneself untainted by the world. τῷ, the (God): absent in RP F1859=11/13 vs. present in P1904 TR F1859=2/13 (Scrivener's ae).

God and the father: or (the) God and father, but the Greek is distinct from James 3:9.

look after ← watch over, visit, but in the context of helping, as a Hebraism; compare Ruth 1:6.

by ← from.
James 2:1 Ἀδελφοί μου, μὴ ἐν προσωποληψίαις ἔχετε τὴν πίστιν τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ τῆς δόξης. My brothers, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality. Lord Jesus Christ of glory: or, by a Hebraic genitive, glorious Lord Jesus Christ.
James 2:2 Ἐὰν γὰρ εἰσέλθῃ εἰς τὴν συναγωγὴν ὑμῶν ἀνὴρ χρυσοδακτύλιος ἐν ἐσθῆτι λαμπρᾷ, εἰσέλθῃ δὲ καὶ πτωχὸς ἐν ῥυπαρᾷ ἐσθῆτι, For if a man with golden rings on his fingers in magnificent clothing goes into your synagogue, and a poor man in filthy clothes also goes in,
James 2:3 καὶ ἐπιβλέψητε ἐπὶ τὸν φοροῦντα τὴν ἐσθῆτα τὴν λαμπράν, καὶ εἴπητε αὐτῷ, Σὺ κάθου ὧδε καλῶς, καὶ τῷ πτωχῷ εἴπητε, Σὺ στῆθι ἐκεῖ, ἤ, Κάθου ὧδε ὑπὸ τὸ ὑποπόδιόν μου· and you look favourably on the one wearing magnificent clothing, and you say to him, “You sit here in a good place”, and you say to the poor man, “You stand there”, or, “Sit here under my footstool”, in a good place ← well, perhaps comfortably.
James 2:4 καὶ οὐ διεκρίθητε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, καὶ ἐγένεσθε κριταὶ διαλογισμῶν πονηρῶν; then do you not make a distinction in your minds, and have you not become judges with evil reasonings? do you not make a distinction in your minds ← have you not been partial in yourselves.

with ← of.
James 2:5 Ἀκούσατε, ἀδελφοί μου ἀγαπητοί. Οὐχ ὁ θεὸς ἐξελέξατο τοὺς πτωχοὺς τοῦ κόσμου {RP P1904: - } [TR: τούτου] πλουσίους ἐν πίστει, καὶ κληρονόμους τῆς βασιλείας ἧς ἐπηγγείλατο τοῖς ἀγαπῶσιν αὐτόν; My beloved brothers, listen. Has not God chosen the poor of {RP P1904: the} [TR: this] world, rich in faith, and heirs to the kingdom which he promised to those who love him? τούτου, this: absent in RP P1904 F1859=12/12 vs. present in TR F1859=0/12.

to ← of.
James 2:6 Ὑμεῖς δὲ ἠτιμάσατε τὸν πτωχόν. Οὐχ οἱ πλούσιοι καταδυναστεύουσιν ὑμῶν, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἕλκουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς κριτήρια; But you despised the poor man. Do not the rich exercise power over you, and do they not drag you to the law courts?
James 2:7 Οὐκ αὐτοὶ βλασφημοῦσιν τὸ καλὸν ὄνομα τὸ ἐπικληθὲν ἐφ' ὑμᾶς; Do they not blaspheme the good name which you are called after? Amos 9:12 (‫אֲשֶׁר־נִקְרָא שְׁמִי עֲלֵיהֶם‬).

name which you are called after ← name which (was) called on over you. [MG] interprets as God giving his name to his people. See also Gen 48:16, Deut 28:10, 2 Sam 12:28, Isa 63:19, Jer 14:9, Amos 9:12, Acts 15:17.
James 2:8 Εἰ μέντοι νόμον τελεῖτε βασιλικόν, κατὰ τὴν γραφήν, Ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν, καλῶς ποιεῖτε· If, however, you keep the royal law according to the scripture, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself”, you do well. Lev 19:18.
James 2:9 εἰ δὲ προσωποληπτεῖτε, ἁμαρτίαν ἐργάζεσθε, ἐλεγχόμενοι ὑπὸ τοῦ νόμου ὡς παραβάται. But if you show partiality, you commit a sin, being convicted under the law as transgressors.
James 2:10 Ὅστις γὰρ ὅλον τὸν νόμον {RP TR: τηρήσει, πταίσει} [P1904: τηρήσῃ, πταίσῃ] δὲ ἐν ἑνί, γέγονεν πάντων ἔνοχος. For whoever keeps the whole law but stumbles at one point becomes culpable of everything. τηρήσει, πταίσει, will keep, (but) will stumble (classical future indicative), RP TR F1859=12/12 vs. τηρήσῃ, πταίσῃ, keeps, stumbles (non-classical subjunctive, as if after ὃς ἄν), P1904 F1859=0/12.

becomes ← has become.
James 2:11 Ὁ γὰρ εἰπών, Μὴ {RP: μοιχεύσεις} [P1904 TR: μοιχεύσῃς], εἶπεν καί, Μὴ {RP: φονεύσεις} [P1904 TR: φονεύσῃς]· εἰ δὲ οὐ μοιχεύσεις, φονεύσεις δέ, γέγονας παραβάτης νόμου. For he who said, “You shall not commit adultery, also said, “You shall not commit murder.” And if you do not commit adultery, but you do commit murder, you become culpable of breaking the law. μοιχεύσεις, (do not) commit adultery (non-classical future indicative), RP F1859=1/12 (Scrivener's k) vs. μοιχεύσῃς, (do not) commit adultery (classical aorist subjunctive), P1904 TR F1859=8/12 vs. other readings, F1859=3/12 (Scrivener's acf). A strong disparity (#1) with RP, R=1:10.

φονεύσεις, (do not) commit murder (non-classical future indicative), RP F1859=1/12 (Scrivener's k) vs. φονεύσῃς, (do not) commit murder (classical aorist subjunctive), P1904 TR F1859=9/12 vs. other readings, F1859=2/12 (Scrivener's ac). A strong disparity (#2) with RP, R=1:11.

Ex 20:13-14, Deut 5:17-18.

become ← have become.
James 2:12 Οὕτως λαλεῖτε καὶ οὕτως ποιεῖτε, ὡς διὰ νόμου ἐλευθερίας μέλλοντες κρίνεσθαι. Speak this way, and act this way, as people who are going to be judged by the law of freedom.
James 2:13 Ἡ γὰρ κρίσις {RP P1904: ἀνέλεος} [TR: ἀνίλεως] τῷ μὴ ποιήσαντι ἔλεος· {RP P1904: - } [TR: καὶ] κατακαυχᾶται {RP: ἔλεον} [P1904 TR: ἔλεος] κρίσεως. For judgment on him who does not show mercy is merciless. {RP P1904: Mercy} [TR: But mercy] overrides judgment. ἀνέλεος, merciless (1), RP P1904 F1859=7/14 (Scrivener's cgjkl*mo) vs. ἀνίλεως, merciless (2), TR F1859=3/14 (Scrivener's ab**d) vs. other readings, F1859=4/14 (Scrivener's b*l**hf).

ἔλεον, mercy (non-classical – unique to this verse? – τὸ ἔλεον -ου), RP F1859=8/12 vs. ἔλεος, mercy (non-classical τὸ ἔλεος -ους, as in the previous occurrence), P1904 TR F1859=4/12 (Scrivener's acgj). The classical form is ὁ ἔλεος -ου.

καὶ, and / but: absent in RP P1904 F1859=12/12 vs. present in TR F1859=0/12.

overrides ← boasts down on, vaunts itself over.
James 2:14 Τί τὸ ὄφελος, ἀδελφοί μου, ἐὰν πίστιν λέγῃ τις ἔχειν, ἔργα δὲ μὴ ἔχῃ; Μὴ δύναται ἡ πίστις σῶσαι αὐτόν; My brothers, what is the benefit if someone says he has faith, but he does not have works? Can his faith really save him?
James 2:15 Ἐὰν δὲ ἀδελφὸς ἢ ἀδελφὴ γυμνοὶ ὑπάρχωσιν καὶ λειπόμενοι ὦσιν τῆς ἐφημέρου τροφῆς, And if a brother or sister is unclothed, and he lacks daily food, is ... he lacks ← are ... they lack. But in the next verse we accept the plural in our English. In Hebrew two disjoined singular nouns may take a plural verb, e.g. Deut 22:4 and Modern Hebrew.
James 2:16 εἴπῃ δέ τις αὐτοῖς ἐξ ὑμῶν, Ὑπάγετε ἐν εἰρήνῃ, θερμαίνεσθε καὶ χορτάζεσθε, μὴ δῶτε δὲ αὐτοῖς τὰ ἐπιτήδεια τοῦ σώματος, τί τὸ ὄφελος; and one of you says to them, “Go off in peace, warm yourselves and feed yourselves”, but you do not give them provisions for the body, what is the benefit?
James 2:17 Οὕτως καὶ ἡ πίστις, ἐὰν μὴ ἔργα ἔχῃ, νεκρά ἐστιν καθ' ἑαυτήν. So is faith too. If it does not have works, it is in itself dead.
James 2:18 Ἀλλ' ἐρεῖ τις, Σὺ πίστιν ἔχεις, κἀγὼ ἔργα ἔχω· δεῖξόν μοι τὴν πίστιν σου {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: ἐκ} [S1894: χωρὶς] τῶν ἔργων σου, κἀγὼ δείξω σοι ἐκ τῶν ἔργων μου τὴν πίστιν μου. But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: by} [S1894: without] your works, and I will show you by my works my faith. ἐκ, out of / by (your works), RP P1904 S1550 E1624 F1859=10/12 vs. χωρὶς, without (your works), S1894 F1859=2/12 (Scrivener's am). AV differs textually.
James 2:19 Σὺ πιστεύεις ὅτι ὁ θεὸς εἷς ἐστίν· καλῶς ποιεῖς· καὶ τὰ δαιμόνια πιστεύουσιν, καὶ φρίσσουσιν. You believe that God is one. You do well. But the demons also believe that, yet they shudder.
James 2:20 Θέλεις δὲ γνῶναι, ὦ ἄνθρωπε κενέ, ὅτι ἡ πίστις χωρὶς τῶν ἔργων νεκρά ἐστιν; Now are you willing to know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? works ← the works, perhaps suggesting that the works are specific to the faith in some way. But see Gen 22:9.
James 2:21 Ἀβραὰμ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων ἐδικαιώθη, ἀνενέγκας Ἰσαὰκ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον; Abraham our father – was he not justified by works when he had offered his son Isaac on the altar? when he had offered: because of Abraham's intention, God counted the offering as having taken place. Compare Heb 11:17.
James 2:22 Βλέπεις ὅτι ἡ πίστις συνήργει τοῖς ἔργοις αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἔργων ἡ πίστις ἐτελειώθη; Do you see that faith was at work with his works, and by his works his faith was made complete?
James 2:23 Καὶ ἐπληρώθη ἡ γραφὴ ἡ λέγουσα, Ἐπίστευσεν δὲ Ἀβραὰμ τῷ θεῷ, καὶ ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ εἰς δικαιοσύνην, καὶ φίλος θεοῦ ἐκλήθη. And the scripture was fulfilled which says, “And Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him as righteousness”, and he was called the friend of God. Gen 15:6, 2 Chr 20:7, Isa 41:8.
James 2:24 Ὁρᾶτε τοίνυν ὅτι ἐξ ἔργων δικαιοῦται ἄνθρωπος, καὶ οὐκ ἐκ πίστεως μόνον. So then, you see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.
James 2:25 Ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Ῥαὰβ ἡ πόρνη οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων ἐδικαιώθη, ὑποδεξαμένη τοὺς ἀγγέλους, καὶ ἑτέρᾳ ὁδῷ ἐκβαλοῦσα; And likewise, was not Rahab the prostitute justified by works too, lodging the messengers and sending them away by a different route? lodging ... sending ← having lodged ... having sent. See Matt 23:20.
James 2:26 Ὥσπερ γὰρ τὸ σῶμα χωρὶς πνεύματος νεκρόν ἐστιν, οὕτως καὶ ἡ πίστις χωρὶς τῶν ἔργων νεκρά ἐστιν. For as the body without breath is dead, so is faith without works dead. breath: or spirit.
James 3:1 Μὴ πολλοὶ διδάσκαλοι γίνεσθε, ἀδελφοί μου, εἰδότες ὅτι μεῖζον κρίμα ληψόμεθα. My brothers, do not become teachers in large numbers, knowing that as teachers we will receive a more severe judgment. in large numbers ← many.

more severe ← greater.

judgment: AV differs (condemnation).
James 3:2 Πολλὰ γὰρ πταίομεν ἅπαντες. Εἴ τις ἐν λόγῳ οὐ πταίει, οὗτος τέλειος ἀνήρ, δυνατὸς χαλιναγωγῆσαι καὶ ὅλον τὸ σῶμα. For we all stumble in many respects. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, capable of bridling his whole body too. he ← this.
James 3:3 {RP P1904: Ἴδε} [TR: Ἰδού], τῶν ἵππων τοὺς χαλινοὺς εἰς τὰ στόματα βάλλομεν πρὸς τὸ πείθεσθαι αὐτοὺς ἡμῖν, καὶ ὅλον τὸ σῶμα αὐτῶν μετάγομεν. Look, we place bits in horses' mouths, so that they obey us, and we steer the whole of their body. ἴδε, see, RP P1904 F1859=8/12 vs. ἰδού, behold, TR F1859=1/12 (Scrivener's f) vs. another reading, F1859=2/12 (Scrivener's lm) vs. word absent, F1859=1/12 (Scrivener's o).
James 3:4 Ἰδού, καὶ τὰ πλοῖα, τηλικαῦτα ὄντα, καὶ ὑπὸ σκληρῶν ἀνέμων ἐλαυνόμενα, μετάγεται ὑπὸ ἐλαχίστου πηδαλίου, ὅπου ἂν ἡ ὁρμὴ τοῦ εὐθύνοντος βούληται. And look at how ships too, which are so large, and are driven by strong winds, are steered by a very small rudder, wherever the helmsman's spur of the moment wishes. spur of the momentonset, impulse.

1 Pet 1:4 εἰς κληρονομίαν ἄφθαρτον καὶ ἀμίαντον καὶ ἀμάραντον, τετηρημένην ἐν οὐρανοῖς εἰς {RP P1904 S1894: ὑμᾶς} [S1550 E1624: ἡμᾶς], into an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance reserved in the heavens for {RP P1904 S1894: you} [S1550 E1624: us], ὑμᾶς, us, RP P1904 S1894 F1859=11/12 vs. ἡμᾶς, you, S1550 E1624 F1859=1/12 (Scrivener's c).

1 Pet 1:6 Ἐν ᾧ ἀγαλλιᾶσθε, ὀλίγον ἄρτι, εἰ δέον ἐστίν, λυπηθέντες ἐν ποικίλοις πειρασμοῖς, And in this inheritance you rejoice, although for a short time now, if it is necessary, you grieve with various trials, And in this inheritancein which. The antecedent of which is inheritance from verse 4 since a masculine or neuter noun is required (or possibly a generalizing concept).

you grieve ← having grieved. See Matt 23:20.
1 Pet 1:7 ἵνα τὸ δοκίμιον ὑμῶν τῆς πίστεως πολὺ {RP TR: τιμιώτερον} [P1904: τιμότερον] χρυσίου τοῦ ἀπολλυμένου, διὰ πυρὸς δὲ δοκιμαζομένου, εὑρεθῇ εἰς ἔπαινον καὶ τιμὴν καὶ {RP: εἰς} [P1904 TR: - ] δόξαν ἐν ἀποκαλύψει Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ· in order that the tested character of your faith might be found to be much more precious than gold which perishes, even if tested by fire, for praise and honour and {RP: for} [P1904 TR: - ] glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, τιμιώτερον, more precious (classical form), RP TR F1859=6/12 vs. τιμότερον, more precious (classical form when with πολὺ adjoined), P1904 F1859=6/12 (Scrivener's bdjkmo). Nearly a disparity (#1) with RP, R=7:7.

εἰς (preposition denoting apposition): present in RP F1859=3/12 (Scrivener's fgj) vs. absent in P1904 TR F1859=9/12. A strong disparity (#2) with RP, R=3:11.

RP AV associate might be found with for praise and honour. So AV differs punctuationally.

if: conditional use of the participle.
1 Pet 1:8 ὃν οὐκ {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: εἰδότες} [S1894: ἰδόντες] ἀγαπᾶτε, εἰς ὃν ἄρτι μὴ ὁρῶντες, πιστεύοντες δέ, ἀγαλλιᾶσθε χαρᾷ ἀνεκλαλήτῳ καὶ δεδοξασμένῃ, whom, although you {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: do not know} [S1894: have not seen] him, you love, in whom, although you do not see him now, you believe and rejoice with inexpressible and glorious joy, εἰδότες, knowing, RP P1904 S1550 E1624 F1859=10/13 vs. ἰδόντες, having seen, S1894 F1859=2/13 (Scrivener's jo) vs. another reading, F1859=1/13 (Scrivener's b*).

what circumstances ← what kind of time, καιρὸν being translated again because the two Greek interrogatives (τίνα and ποῖον) give rise to relative adjectives in English (what and under what), which are not sufficiently compatible to qualify the same noun.

that ← these (things).
1 Pet 1:12 Οἷς ἀπεκαλύφθη ὅτι οὐχ ἑαυτοῖς, {RP P1904: ὑμῖν} [TR: ἡμῖν] δὲ διηκόνουν αὐτά, ἃ νῦν ἀνηγγέλη ὑμῖν διὰ τῶν εὐαγγελισαμένων ὑμᾶς ἐν πνεύματι ἁγίῳ ἀποσταλέντι ἀπ' οὐρανοῦ, εἰς ἃ ἐπιθυμοῦσιν ἄγγελοι παρακύψαι.

AV differs textually.

and to these prophetsto whom.

For it stands written: Be holy, for I am holy.” γίνεσθε, become (present, so imperfective aspect), RP P1904 F1859=5/13 (Scrivener's b**hjkm) vs. γένεσθε, become (aorist, so perfective aspect), TR F1859=6/13 (Scrivener's b*cfglo) vs. another reading, F1859=2/13 (Scrivener's ad). A weak disparity with RP, R=6:7.

Lev 11:44, Lev 11:45, Lev 19:2.
1 Pet 1:17 Καὶ εἰ πατέρα ἐπικαλεῖσθε τὸν ἀπροσωπολήπτως κρίνοντα κατὰ τὸ ἑκάστου ἔργον, ἐν φόβῳ τὸν τῆς παροικίας ὑμῶν χρόνον ἀναστράφητε· And if you call on the father, who judges impartially according to each person's work, then conduct yourselves with fear in the time of your stay here,
1 Pet 1:18 εἰδότες ὅτι οὐ φθαρτοῖς, ἀργυρίῳ ἢ χρυσίῳ, ἐλυτρώθητε ἐκ τῆς ματαίας ὑμῶν ἀναστροφῆς πατροπαραδότου, knowing that you were not redeemed by perishable things, silver or gold, from your vain comportment as handed down from the fathers,
1 Pet 1:19 ἀλλὰ τιμίῳ αἵματι ὡς ἀμνοῦ ἀμώμου καὶ ἀσπίλου χριστοῦ, but by precious blood as of a lamb without blemish and without spot – of Christ –

God, who raised him: see Acts 2:32, John 10:18.

The words could be grammatically regrouped to give the word of the living God, who also remains throughout the age, but the following verses militate against that.
1 Pet 1:24 Διότι, Πᾶσα σὰρξ ὡς χόρτος, καὶ πᾶσα δόξα ἀνθρώπου ὡς ἄνθος χόρτου. Ἐξηράνθη ὁ χόρτος, καὶ τὸ ἄνθος αὐτοῦ ἐξέπεσεν· For

All flesh is as grass,

And all glory of man is like a herbaceous flower.

The grass dries up,

And its flower withers,

“Behold, I place in Zion a cornerstone,

Select and honoured,

And he who believes in him

¶ And they stumble at the word in disbelieving, to which they for their part were appointed.

2 Pet 1:1 {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: Συμεὼν} [S1894: Σίμων] Πέτρος, δοῦλος καὶ ἀπόστολος Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ, τοῖς ἰσότιμον ἡμῖν λαχοῦσιν πίστιν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν καὶ σωτῆρος {RP P1904 S1550: - } [E1624 S1894: ἡμῶν] Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ· From Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained equally precious faith to ours in the righteousness of our God and {RP P1904 S1550: - } [E1624 S1894: our] saviour, Jesus Christ, Συμεὼν, Symeon (but we translate Simon), RP P1904 S1550 E1624 F1859=9/13 vs. Σίμων, Simon, S1894 F1859=4/13 (Scrivener's a*clm).

ἡμῶν, our: absent in RP P1904 S1550 F1859=12/12 (incl. c(tacite)) vs. present in E1624 S1894 F1859=0/12.

of our God and saviour Jesus Christ: no article with saviour in the Greek. See Rom 1:7, showing why we repunctuate; AV differs.
2 Pet 1:2 χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη πληθυνθείη ἐν ἐπιγνώσει τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν· grace to you, and peace be plentiful in the acknowledgment of God and Jesus our Lord, peace be plentiful: see 1 Pet 1:2.

The word διά + genitive makes an adverb in Heb 13:22.
2 Pet 1:4 δι' ὧν τὰ {RP P1904: τίμια ἡμῖν καὶ μέγιστα} [TR: μέγιστα ἡμῖν καὶ τίμια] ἐπαγγέλματα δεδώρηται, ἵνα διὰ τούτων γένησθε θείας κοινωνοὶ φύσεως, ἀποφυγόντες τῆς ἐν κόσμῳ ἐν ἐπιθυμίᾳ φθορᾶς. qualities through which {RP P1904: precious and very great} [TR: very great and precious] promises have been given to us, in order that through these you might become partakers of divine nature, having fled from the corruption in the world, which is driven by covetousness. τίμια ἡμῖν καὶ μέγιστα, precious + to us + and very great, RP P1904 F1859=9/12 vs. μέγιστα ἡμῖν καὶ τίμια, very great + to us + and precious, TR F1859=0/12 vs. other readings, F1859=3/12 (Scrivener's acm).
2 Pet 1:5 Καὶ αὐτὸ τοῦτο δέ, σπουδὴν πᾶσαν παρεισενέγκαντες, ἐπιχορηγήσατε ἐν τῇ πίστει ὑμῶν τὴν ἀρετήν, ἐν δὲ τῇ ἀρετῇ τὴν γνῶσιν, And for this very reason, while bringing all zeal to bear, supply virtue in your faith, and in your virtue, knowledge, bringing ← having brought. See Matt 23:20.

2 Pet 1:8 Ταῦτα γὰρ ὑμῖν ὑπάρχοντα καὶ πλεονάζοντα, οὐκ ἀργοὺς οὐδὲ ἀκάρπους καθίστησιν εἰς τὴν τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ ἐπίγνωσιν. For if these things belong to you and abound, they establish you as neither inactive nor unfruitful in the acknowledgment of our Lord Jesus Christ. if: conditional use of the participle.
2 Pet 1:9 ᾯ γὰρ μὴ πάρεστιν ταῦτα, τυφλός ἐστιν, μυωπάζων, λήθην λαβὼν τοῦ καθαρισμοῦ τῶν πάλαι αὐτοῦ ἁμαρτιῶν. For he who lacks these things is blind, short-sighted, oblivious of the cleansing of his past sins. he who lacks these thingsto whom these (things) are not present.

oblivious ← having received oblivion.
2 Pet 1:10 Διὸ μᾶλλον, ἀδελφοί, σπουδάσατε βεβαίαν ὑμῶν τὴν κλῆσιν καὶ ἐκλογὴν ποιεῖσθαι· ταῦτα γὰρ ποιοῦντες οὐ μὴ πταίσητέ ποτε· Therefore, brothers, be eager rather to make your calling and election steadfast.

2 Pet 1:12 Διὸ οὐκ ἀμελήσω {RP P1904: ἀεὶ ὑμᾶς} [TR: ὑμᾶς ἀεὶ] ὑπομιμνῄσκειν περὶ τούτων, καίπερ εἰδότας, καὶ ἐστηριγμένους ἐν τῇ παρούσῃ ἀληθείᾳ. This is why I will not be negligent in always reminding you about these things, although you know them and have been confirmed in the present truth. ἀεὶ ὑμᾶς, always + you, RP P1904 F1859=9/12 vs. ὑμᾶς ἀεὶ, you + always, TR F1859=3/12 (Scrivener's ack).

this is why ← on account of which.
2 Pet 1:13 Δίκαιον δὲ ἡγοῦμαι, ἐφ' ὅσον εἰμὶ ἐν τούτῳ τῷ σκηνώματι, διεγείρειν ὑμᾶς ἐν ὑπομνήσει· And I consider it a righteous matter, as long as I am in this tent, to rouse you in reminding you, tent: i.e. mortal body.
2 Pet 1:14 εἰδὼς ὅτι ταχινή ἐστιν ἡ ἀπόθεσις τοῦ σκηνώματός μου, καθὼς καὶ ὁ κύριος ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦς χριστὸς ἐδήλωσέν μοι. knowing that I shall imminently be divesting myself of my tent, as indeed our Lord Jesus Christ has shown me. I shall imminently be divesting myself of my tent ← the disposal of my tent is imminent.
2 Pet 1:15 Σπουδάσω δὲ καὶ ἑκάστοτε ἔχειν ὑμᾶς μετὰ τὴν ἐμὴν ἔξοδον τὴν τούτων μνήμην ποιεῖσθαι. And I will also be eager to always have you making remembrance of these things after my departure. departure ← exodus.

See Matt 23:20. Gerundial use of the participle.

having been ← having become.

his ← of that (one).
2 Pet 1:17 Λαβὼν γὰρ παρὰ θεοῦ πατρὸς τιμὴν καὶ δόξαν, φωνῆς ἐνεχθείσης αὐτῷ τοιᾶσδε ὑπὸ τῆς μεγαλοπρεποῦς δόξης, Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ υἱός μου ὁ ἀγαπητός, εἰς ὃν ἐγὼ εὐδόκησα· For he received honour and glory from God the father when an utterance was delivered to him, such as is from magnificent glory, saying, “This is my beloved son, with whom I am very pleased”, from ← by.

The quote (“This is my beloved son ... ”) is in the gospels at Matt 3:17, Matt 17:5, Mark 9:7, Luke 9:35.
2 Pet 1:18 καὶ ταύτην τὴν φωνὴν ἡμεῖς ἠκούσαμεν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἐνεχθεῖσαν, σὺν αὐτῷ ὄντες ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ ἁγίῳ. and we heard this utterance transmitted from heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain. on ← in, but not as strong as inside.
2 Pet 1:19 Καὶ ἔχομεν βεβαιότερον τὸν προφητικὸν λόγον, ᾧ καλῶς ποιεῖτε προσέχοντες, ὡς λύχνῳ φαίνοντι ἐν αὐχμηρῷ τόπῳ, ἕως οὗ ἡμέρα διαυγάσῃ, καὶ φωσφόρος ἀνατείλῃ ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν· Yet we have the more steadfast prophetic word whereby you do well if you heed it, like a lamp shining in a drab place until the day dawns and the light-bearer rises in your hearts, more steadfast: because the written word is more durable and complete than Peter's recollection of the events, and it remains first-hand information in our day.

if: conditional use of the participle.

light-bearer: AV differs somewhat (day star).
2 Pet 1:20 τοῦτο πρῶτον γινώσκοντες, ὅτι πᾶσα προφητεία γραφῆς ἰδίας ἐπιλύσεως οὐ γίνεται. knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of scripture comes about as a private deed. as a private deed ← of a private releasing, of its own discharge (e.g. of a financial obligation [MM]). Perhaps by issuing itself.
2 Pet 1:21 Οὐ γὰρ θελήματι ἀνθρώπου ἠνέχθη ποτὲ προφητεία, ἀλλ' ὑπὸ πνεύματος ἁγίου φερόμενοι ἐλάλησαν {RP P1904 S1894: - } [S1550 E1624: οἱ] ἅγιοι θεοῦ ἄνθρωποι. For prophecy was never produced by the will of man, but when {RP P1904 S1894: - } [S1550 E1624: the] holy men of God spoke as they were borne along by holy spirit. οἱ, the (holy men): absent in RP P1904 S1894 F1859=11/12 vs. present in S1550 E1624 F1859=1/12 (Scrivener's a).
2 Pet 2:1 Ἐγένοντο δὲ καὶ ψευδοπροφῆται ἐν τῷ λαῷ, ὡς καὶ ἐν ὑμῖν ἔσονται ψευδοδιδάσκαλοι, οἵτινες παρεισάξουσιν αἱρέσεις ἀπωλείας, καὶ τὸν ἀγοράσαντα αὐτοὺς δεσπότην ἀρνούμενοι, ἐπάγοντες ἑαυτοῖς ταχινὴν ἀπώλειαν. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will surreptitiously introduce destructive heresies, also denying the master who bought them, bringing swift destruction on themselves. were ← became, came about. This is balanced by the ordinary verb to be in the next clause.

destructive heresies ← heresies of destruction, a Hebraic genitive.

them: we take this as referring to the people, rather than the false prophets.
2 Pet 2:2 Καὶ πολλοὶ ἐξακολουθήσουσιν αὐτῶν ταῖς {RP P1904: ἀσελγείαις} [TR: ἀπωλείαις], δι' οὓς ἡ ὁδὸς τῆς ἀληθείας βλασφημηθήσεται.

AV differs textually.

And prompted by greed, they will make merchandise of you with fabricated words – they for whom judgment from long ago does not lie idle, and whose destruction {RP P1904: will} [TR: does] not slumber. νυστάξει, will not slumber, RP P1904 F1859=7/13 (Scrivener's hjklmo) vs. νυστάζει, does not slumber, TR F1859=6/13 (Scrivener's abcdfg). Doubting Scrivener's alphabetic sequences, we read ξ in abcefg(?)hjklmo, and ζ in dp(?).

greed or fraudulence. See 1 Cor 5:10.
2 Pet 2:4 Εἰ γὰρ ὁ θεὸς ἀγγέλων ἁμαρτησάντων οὐκ ἐφείσατο, ἀλλὰ σειραῖς ζόφου ταρταρώσας παρέδωκεν εἰς κρίσιν {RP P1904: τηρουμένους} [TR: τετηρημένους]· For if God did not spare angels who sinned but consigned them to Tartarus in chains of underworld gloom under guard, and he delivered them to judgment, τηρουμένους, being guarded / reserved, RP P1904 F1859=12/13 vs. τετηρημένους, having been guarded / reserved, TR F1859=1/13 (Scrivener's b).

if: the apodosis to this clause starts in verse 9. This necessitates retaining a long sentence.

A disparity with RP-text, R=4:11.

Noah in a company of eight ← Noah (as) eighth.

preacher: or herald.

The tenor is more active on Lot's part than was tortured.
2 Pet 2:9 οἶδεν κύριος εὐσεβεῖς ἐκ {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: πειρασμοῦ} [S1894: πειρασμῶν] ῥύεσθαι, ἀδίκους δὲ εἰς ἡμέραν κρίσεως κολαζομένους τηρεῖν· if so – then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly from {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: temptation} [S1894: temptations], and to guard the unrighteous up to the day of judgment to be punished, πειρασμοῦ, temptation, RP P1904 S1550 E1624 F1859=10/13 vs. πειρασμῶν, temptations, S1894 F1859=3/13 (Scrivener's ahm).

if so: resuming from verse 4.

to be punished ← being punished. Perhaps standing for a classical future participle of purpose. See Matt 20:20.
2 Pet 2:10 μάλιστα δὲ τοὺς ὀπίσω σαρκὸς ἐν ἐπιθυμίᾳ μιασμοῦ πορευομένους, καὶ κυριότητος καταφρονοῦντας. Τολμηταί, αὐθάδεις, δόξας οὐ τρέμουσιν βλασφημοῦντες· and especially those walking after the flesh with depraved desires, also despising lordship. Daring they are, presumptuous, not afraid to blaspheme those in glory, with depraved desires ← in desire of defilement.

since: causal use of the participle.

For it would have been better for them not to have acknowledged the way of righteousness than for them having acknowledged it to turn aside from the holy commandment handed down to them.
2 Pet 2:22 Συμβέβηκεν δὲ αὐτοῖς τὸ τῆς ἀληθοῦς παροιμίας, Κύων ἐπιστρέψας ἐπὶ τὸ ἴδιον ἐξέραμα, καὶ ὗς λουσαμένη εἰς κύλισμα βορβόρου. And the enactment of the true proverb has happened to them: a dog which has returned to its own vomit, and a washed sow to wallowing in the mud. Prov 26:11.

Under RP TBS-TR AV punctuation, we would read and land came out of water, and it holds together through water, by the word of God. So AV differs.
2 Pet 3:6 δι' ὧν ὁ τότε κόσμος ὕδατι κατακλυσθεὶς ἀπώλετο· by which means the world of that time was flooded with water and perished. by which means: the relative pronoun is plural.

But the present heavens and earth, by {RP P1904 S1550: his} [E1624 S1894: the same] word, are kept in store, reserved to fire until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly men. τῷ, (definite article, part of the construction for same): present in RP P1904 E1624 S1894 F1859=13/13 vs. absent in S1550 F1859=0/13.

αὐτοῦ, his, RP P1904 F1859=13/14 vs. αυτῷ, the same, TR F1859=1/14 (Scrivener's a*). AV differs textually.
2 Pet 3:8 Ἓν δὲ τοῦτο μὴ λανθανέτω ὑμᾶς, ἀγαπητοί, ὅτι μία ἡμέρα παρὰ κυρίῳ ὡς χίλια ἔτη, καὶ χίλια ἔτη ὡς ἡμέρα μία. Let not one of you fail to notice this one fact, beloved, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years are as one day. An allusion to Ps 90:4.
2 Pet 3:9 Οὐ βραδύνει ὁ κύριος τῆς ἐπαγγελίας, ὥς τινες {RP TR: βραδυτῆτα} [P1904: βραδύτητα] ἡγοῦνται· ἀλλὰ μακροθυμεῖ εἰς ἡμᾶς, μὴ βουλόμενός τινας ἀπολέσθαι, ἀλλὰ πάντας εἰς μετάνοιαν χωρῆσαι. The Lord will not delay with the promise, as some consider delay, but he is longsuffering towards us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. βραδυτῆτα, slowness, delay, RP TR vs. βραδύτητα, slowness, delay, P1904. Scrivener in F1859 does not give accentuation variations. [LS] agrees with RP. Most (all?) other nouns of this type are recessive – (compare εὐθύτητος Heb 1:8, πρᾳότης Gal 5:23).

will not delay: re-accenting βραδύνει, does not delay, to βραδυνεῖ. An accentuation divergence from RP P1904 TBS-TR.

come to: other meanings of this verb are yield to, make way for, advance to.
2 Pet 3:10 Ἥξει δὲ ἡ ἡμέρα κυρίου ὡς κλέπτης ἐν νυκτί, ἐν ᾗ {RP TR: οἱ} [P1904: - ] οὐρανοὶ ῥοιζηδὸν παρελεύσονται, στοιχεῖα δὲ καυσούμενα λυθήσονται, καὶ γῆ καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ ἔργα κατακαήσεται. For the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, on which {RP TR: the} [P1904: the] heavens will pass away with a loud noise, the elements will burn up and will be dissolved, and the earth and the works in it will be thoroughly burnt up. οἱ, the (heavens): present in RP TR F1859=6/13 (Scrivener's bcfgno) vs. absent in P1904 F1859=7/13 (Scrivener's adhjklm). A weak disparity with RP, R=7:8, all the weaker with the weaker manuscripts against the side of RP (hm weak?).

the day of the Lord: See Rev 1:10.
2 Pet 3:11 Τούτων οὖν πάντων λυομένων, ποταποὺς δεῖ ὑπάρχειν ὑμᾶς ἐν ἁγίαις ἀναστροφαῖς καὶ εὐσεβείαις, Seeing that all these things are to be dissolved, then, what kind of people should you be in holy conduct and godliness,
2 Pet 3:12 προσδοκῶντας καὶ σπεύδοντας τὴν παρουσίαν τῆς τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμέρας, δι' ἣν οὐρανοὶ πυρούμενοι λυθήσονται, καὶ στοιχεῖα καυσούμενα τήκεται; awaiting and eagerly seeking the coming of the day of God by means of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved and the elements will be burnt and melt? which: the antecedent is day (feminine).

dissolved ... burnt: these present tense forms obtain a future time reference from the corresponding main verb.
2 Pet 3:13 Καινοὺς δὲ οὐρανοὺς καὶ γῆν καινὴν κατὰ τὸ ἐπάγγελμα αὐτοῦ προσδοκῶμεν, ἐν οἷς δικαιοσύνη κατοικεῖ. But we await new heavens and a new earth, according to his promise, places in which righteousness dwells. Isa 65:17, Isa 66:22. See also Rev 21:1.

which: the antecedent is new heavens and a new earth (which we bring out by supplying the word places).
2 Pet 3:14 Διό, ἀγαπητοί, ταῦτα προσδοκῶντες, σπουδάσατε ἄσπιλοι καὶ ἀμώμητοι αὐτῷ εὑρεθῆναι ἐν εἰρήνῃ. Therefore, beloved, while waiting for these things, be zealous to be found without spot and without blemish by him in peace.
2 Pet 3:15 Καὶ τὴν τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν μακροθυμίαν σωτηρίαν ἡγεῖσθε, καθὼς καὶ ὁ ἀγαπητὸς ἡμῶν ἀδελφὸς Παῦλος κατὰ τὴν αὐτῷ δοθεῖσαν σοφίαν ἔγραψεν ὑμῖν· And consider our Lord's longsuffering as salvation, as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him,
2 Pet 3:16 ὡς καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἐπιστολαῖς, λαλῶν ἐν αὐταῖς περὶ τούτων· ἐν οἷς ἔστιν δυσνόητά τινα, ἃ οἱ ἀμαθεῖς καὶ ἀστήρικτοι στρεβλοῦσιν, ὡς καὶ τὰς λοιπὰς γραφάς, πρὸς τὴν ἰδίαν αὐτῶν ἀπώλειαν. as indeed in all his epistles, in which he speaks about these matters, matters in which there are some things that are difficult to understand which unlearned and unstable individuals pervert, as they also do with other scriptures, to their own destruction. which: the antecedent is the neuter plural τούτων, so not the feminine epistles. We bring this out by supplying the word matters again.

destruction: or loss. In view of the references to fallen angels, we regard the former meaning, destruction, as more probable here.
2 Pet 3:17 Ὑμεῖς οὖν, ἀγαπητοί, προγινώσκοντες φυλάσσεσθε, ἵνα μή, τῇ τῶν ἀθέσμων πλάνῃ συναπαχθέντες, ἐκπέσητε τοῦ ἰδίου στηριγμοῦ. You, therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, be on your guard that you are not led away likewise by the error of the unprincipled, and you fall away from your own steadfast ground. led away likewise ← jointly led away or, [LS], accommodate oneself to.
2 Pet 3:18 Αὐξάνετε δὲ ἐν χάριτι καὶ γνώσει τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν καὶ σωτῆρος Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ. Αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα καὶ νῦν καὶ εἰς ἡμέραν αἰῶνος. Ἀμήν. But grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and throughout the age-abiding day. Amen. age-abiding day ← day of the age.
1 John 1:1 Ὃ ἦν ἀπ' ἀρχῆς, ὃ ἀκηκόαμεν, ὃ ἑωράκαμεν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς ἡμῶν, ὃ ἐθεασάμεθα, καὶ αἱ χεῖρες ἡμῶν ἐψηλάφησαν περὶ τοῦ λόγου τῆς ζωῆς. That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we beheld and which our hands felt, concerning the word of life
1 John 1:2 Καὶ ἡ ζωὴ ἐφανερώθη, καὶ ἑωράκαμεν, καὶ μαρτυροῦμεν, καὶ ἀπαγγέλλομεν ὑμῖν τὴν ζωὴν τὴν αἰώνιον, ἥτις ἦν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα, καὶ ἐφανερώθη ἡμῖν. for the life was made manifest, and we have seen and we testify and proclaim the age-abiding life to you which was with the father and was made manifest to us – for: causal use of καί.
1 John 1:3 Ὃ ἑωράκαμεν καὶ ἀκηκόαμεν, ἀπαγγέλλομεν ὑμῖν, ἵνα καὶ ὑμεῖς κοινωνίαν ἔχητε μεθ' ἡμῶν· καὶ ἡ κοινωνία δὲ ἡ ἡμετέρα μετὰ τοῦ πατρὸς καὶ μετὰ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ· that which we have seen and heard we proclaim to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us. Moreover our fellowship is with the father and with his son Jesus Christ.
1 John 1:4 καὶ ταῦτα γράφομεν ὑμῖν, ἵνα ἡ χαρὰ {RP-text P1904 S1550: ἡμῶν} [RP-marg E1624 S1894: ὑμῶν] ᾖ πεπληρωμένη. And we write these things to you in order that {RP-text P1904 S1550: our} [RP-marg E1624 S1894: your] joy may be complete. ἡμῶν, our, RP-text P1904 S1550 F1859=9/13 vs. ὑμῶν, your, RP-marg E1624 S1894 F1859=4/13 (Scrivener's acdj).

complete ← completed, filled.
1 John 1:5 Καὶ {RP: ἔστιν αὕτη} [P1904 TR: αὕτη ἐστιν] {RP S1894: ἀγγελία} [P1904 S1550 E1624: ἐπαγγελία] ἣν ἀκηκόαμεν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀναγγέλλομεν ὑμῖν, ὅτι ὁ θεὸς φῶς ἐστίν, καὶ σκοτία ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν οὐδεμία. And this is the {RP S1894: message} [P1904 S1550 E1624: promise] which we have heard from him and report back to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. ἔστιν αὕτη, is + this, RP F1859=9/13 vs. αὕτη ἐστιν, this + is, P1904 TR F1859=4/13 (Scrivener's bdjo).

ἀγγελία, message, RP S1894 F1859=9/13 vs. ἐπαγγελία, promise, P1904 S1550 E1624 F1859=4/13 (Scrivener's abmo).
1 John 1:6 Ἐὰν εἴπωμεν ὅτι κοινωνίαν ἔχομεν μετ' αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῷ σκότει περιπατῶμεν, ψευδόμεθα, καὶ οὐ ποιοῦμεν τὴν ἀλήθειαν· If we say that we have fellowship with him but we walk in darkness, we are lying and not reflecting the truth. reflecting ← doing, representing [LS] section A.I.3.
1 John 1:7 ἐὰν δὲ ἐν τῷ φωτὶ περιπατῶμεν, ὡς αὐτός ἐστιν ἐν τῷ φωτί, κοινωνίαν ἔχομεν μετ' ἀλλήλων, καὶ τὸ αἷμα Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ καθαρίζει ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ πάσης ἁμαρτίας. But if we walk in the light, as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus Christ his son cleanses us from all sin.
1 John 1:8 Ἐὰν εἴπωμεν ὅτι ἁμαρτίαν οὐκ ἔχομεν, ἑαυτοὺς πλανῶμεν, καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν ἡμῖν. If we say that we do not have sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1 John 1:9 Ἐὰν ὁμολογῶμεν τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν, πιστός ἐστιν καὶ δίκαιος ἵνα ἀφῇ ἡμῖν τὰς ἁμαρτίας, καὶ καθαρίσῃ ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ πάσης ἀδικίας. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just in forgiving us our sins and in cleansing us from all unrighteousness.
1 John 1:10 Ἐὰν εἴπωμεν ὅτι οὐχ ἡμαρτήκαμεν, ψεύστην ποιοῦμεν αὐτόν, καὶ ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν ἡμῖν. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
1 John 2:1 Τεκνία μου, ταῦτα γράφω ὑμῖν, ἵνα μὴ ἁμάρτητε. Καὶ ἐάν τις ἁμάρτῃ, παράκλητον ἔχομεν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα, Ἰησοῦν χριστὸν δίκαιον· My little children, I write these things to you so that you do not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the father, Jesus Christ the righteous. advocate: same as comforter in John 14:16, John 14:26, John 15:26, John 16:7.
1 John 2:2 καὶ αὐτὸς ἱλασμός ἐστιν περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἡμῶν· οὐ περὶ τῶν ἡμετέρων δὲ μόνον, ἀλλὰ καὶ περὶ ὅλου τοῦ κόσμου. And he is a propitiation for our sins, and not only for ours, but also for those of the whole world.
1 John 2:3 Καὶ ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐγνώκαμεν αὐτόν, ἐὰν τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ τηρῶμεν. And by this we know that we have come to know him: if we keep his commandments.
1 John 2:4 Ὁ λέγων, Ἔγνωκα αὐτόν, καὶ τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ μὴ τηρῶν, ψεύστης ἐστίν, καὶ ἐν τούτῳ ἡ ἀλήθεια οὐκ ἔστιν· He who says, “I have come to know him”, but who does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. him ← this (man).
1 John 2:5 ὃς δ' ἂν τηρῇ αὐτοῦ τὸν λόγον, ἀληθῶς ἐν τούτῳ ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ τετελείωται. Ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐν αὐτῷ ἐσμέν· But as for whoever keeps his word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this means we know that we are in him. is perfected ← has been perfected.

him ← this (man).
1 John 2:6 ὁ λέγων ἐν αὐτῷ μένειν ὀφείλει, καθὼς ἐκεῖνος περιεπάτησεν, καὶ αὐτὸς οὕτως περιπατεῖν. He who says that he remains in him has a debt, as he walked, so to walk himself too. he ← that (man).
1 John 2:7 Ἀδελφοί, οὐκ ἐντολὴν καινὴν γράφω ὑμῖν, ἀλλ' ἐντολὴν παλαιάν, ἣν εἴχετε ἀπ' ἀρχῆς· ἡ ἐντολὴ ἡ παλαιά ἐστιν ὁ λόγος ὃν ἠκούσατε ἀπ' ἀρχῆς. Brothers, it is not a new commandment which I am writing to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard from the beginning. commandment: especially in the next verse, the word seems to mean order of things, as commanded by God. In the papyri, also ordinance [MM].
1 John 2:8 Πάλιν ἐντολὴν καινὴν γράφω ὑμῖν, ὅ ἐστιν ἀληθὲς ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐν ὑμῖν· ὅτι ἡ σκοτία παράγεται, καὶ τὸ φῶς τὸ ἀληθινὸν ἤδη φαίνει. There again, I am writing a new commandment to you – that which is true in him and in you – that darkness is passing away and that the true light is already shining.
1 John 2:9 Ὁ λέγων ἐν τῷ φωτὶ εἶναι καὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ μισῶν, ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ ἐστὶν ἕως ἄρτι. He who says that he is in the light but hates his brother is still in darkness. still ← up to now.
1 John 2:10 Ὁ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ φωτὶ μένει, καὶ σκάνδαλον ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν. He who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no offensiveness in him. brother: perhaps in the sense of Jer 31:34. See 1 John 2:20, 1 John 2:27.
1 John 2:11 Ὁ δὲ μισῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ ἐστίν, καὶ ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ περιπατεῖ, καὶ οὐκ οἶδεν ποῦ ὑπάγει, ὅτι ἡ σκοτία ἐτύφλωσεν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ. He who hates his brother is in darkness, and he walks in darkness, and he does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
1 John 2:12 Γράφω ὑμῖν, τεκνία, ὅτι ἀφέωνται ὑμῖν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι διὰ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ. Little children, I am writing to you because your sins have been forgiven for his name's sake.
1 John 2:13 Γράφω ὑμῖν, πατέρες, ὅτι ἐγνώκατε τὸν ἀπ' ἀρχῆς. Γράφω ὑμῖν, νεανίσκοι, ὅτι νενικήκατε τὸν πονηρόν. {RP TR: Γράφω} [P1904: Ἔγραψα] ὑμῖν, παιδία, ὅτι ἐγνώκατε τὸν πατέρα. Fathers, I am writing to you because you have come to know him who is from the beginning. Young men, I am writing to you because you have overcome the evil one. Children, {RP TR: I am writing} [P1904: I have written] to you because you have come to know the father. γράφω, I write, RP TR F1859=10/13 vs. ἔγραψα, I wrote, P1904 F1859=3/13 (Scrivener's ajo).
1 John 2:14 Ἔγραψα ὑμῖν, πατέρες, ὅτι ἐγνώκατε τὸν ἀπ' ἀρχῆς. Ἔγραψα ὑμῖν, νεανίσκοι, ὅτι ἰσχυροί ἐστε, καὶ ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν ὑμῖν μένει, καὶ νενικήκατε τὸν πονηρόν. Fathers, I have written to you because you have come to know him who is from the beginning. Young men, I have written to you because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.
1 John 2:15 Μὴ ἀγαπᾶτε τὸν κόσμον, μηδὲ τὰ ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ. Ἐάν τις ἀγαπᾷ τὸν κόσμον, οὐκ ἔστιν ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ πατρὸς ἐν αὐτῷ. Do not love the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the father is not in him,
1 John 2:16 Ὅτι πᾶν τὸ ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ, ἡ ἐπιθυμία τῆς σαρκός, καὶ ἡ ἐπιθυμία τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν, καὶ ἡ ἀλαζονεία τοῦ βίου, οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ πατρός, ἀλλ' ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου ἐστίν. because everything that is in the world – carnal appetite and the longing of the eyes and the pretension of life – is not from the father, but is from the world. carnal appetite and the longing of the eyes ← the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes.

from (2x)out of, denoting origin. See 1 John 2:29 for some references to ancestral origin.
1 John 2:17 Καὶ ὁ κόσμος παράγεται, καὶ ἡ ἐπιθυμία αὐτοῦ· ὁ δὲ ποιῶν τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. And the world is passing away, as is desire for it. But he who does the will of God remains throughout the age. desire for it: objective genitive, or, but much less likely, its desire, subjective – the world is personified in John 15:19.
1 John 2:18 Παιδία, ἐσχάτη ὥρα ἐστίν· καὶ καθὼς ἠκούσατε ὅτι ὁ ἀντίχριστος ἔρχεται, καὶ νῦν ἀντίχριστοι πολλοὶ γεγόνασιν· ὅθεν γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐσχάτη ὥρα ἐστίν. Children, it is the last hour, and just as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come – by which we know that it is the last hour.
1 John 2:19 Ἐξ ἡμῶν ἐξῆλθον, ἀλλ' οὐκ ἦσαν ἐξ ἡμῶν· εἰ γὰρ ἦσαν ἐξ ἡμῶν, μεμενήκεισαν ἂν μεθ' ἡμῶν· ἀλλ' ἵνα φανερωθῶσιν ὅτι οὐκ εἰσὶν πάντες ἐξ ἡμῶν. They came out of us, but they did not stem from us, for if they did stem from us, they would have remained with us, but this happened so that they should be made manifest: that not all stem from us. did not stem from ... did stem from ← were (not) out of. See 1 John 2:29.
1 John 2:20 Καὶ ὑμεῖς χρίσμα ἔχετε ἀπὸ τοῦ ἁγίου, καὶ οἴδατε πάντα. But you have an anointing from the holy one, and you know all things. you know all things: reminiscent of Jer 31:33, so connected with the new covenant, which operates on the house of Israel and the house of Judah (Jer 31:31). See also 1 John 2:27.
1 John 2:21 Οὐκ ἔγραψα ὑμῖν, ὅτι οὐκ οἴδατε τὴν ἀλήθειαν, ἀλλ' ὅτι οἴδατε αὐτήν, καὶ ὅτι πᾶν ψεῦδος ἐκ τῆς ἀληθείας οὐκ ἔστιν. I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and that no lie stems from the truth. stems from ← is out of. See 1 John 2:29.
1 John 2:22 Τίς ἐστιν ὁ ψεύστης, εἰ μὴ ὁ ἀρνούμενος ὅτι Ἰησοῦς οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ χριστός; Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ ἀντίχριστος, ὁ ἀρνούμενος τὸν πατέρα καὶ τὸν υἱόν. Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is an antichrist: one who denies the father and the son. a liar ← the liar. See Gen 22:9.

an antichrist ← the antichrist, apparently generalizing a category, as the article and participle do in verses 4, 6, 9, 10 and 11. But see Gen 22:9.
1 John 2:23 Πᾶς ὁ ἀρνούμενος τὸν υἱὸν οὐδὲ τὸν πατέρα ἔχει {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: - } [S1894: · ὁ ὁμολογῶν τὸν υἱὸν καὶ τὸν πατέρα ἔχει]. No-one who denies the son has the father either. {RP P1904 S1550 E1624: - } [S1894: He who confesses the son also has the father.] ὁ ὁμολογῶν τὸν ὑιὸν καὶ τὸν πατέρα ἔχει, he who confesses the son also has the father: absent in RP P1904 S1550 E1624 F1859=11/14 (Scrivener's b*cdfghklmno) vs. present in S1894 F1859=3/14 (Scrivener's ab**j). AV differs textually, but italicized.
1 John 2:24 Ὑμεῖς οὖν ὃ ἠκούσατε ἀπ' ἀρχῆς, ἐν ὑμῖν μενέτω. Ἐὰν ἐν ὑμῖν μείνῃ ὃ ἀπ' ἀρχῆς ἠκούσατε, καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐν τῷ υἱῷ καὶ ἐν τῷ πατρὶ μενεῖτε. As for you, therefore, let what you have heard from the beginning remain in you. If that which you have heard from the beginning remains in you, then you will remain in the son and in the father. then: translating καὶ, introducing the apodosis of a conditional sentence, a Hebraism.
1 John 2:25 Καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐπαγγελία ἣν αὐτὸς ἐπηγγείλατο ἡμῖν, τὴν ζωὴν τὴν αἰώνιον. And this is the promise which he made to us: age-abiding life.
1 John 2:26 Ταῦτα ἔγραψα ὑμῖν περὶ τῶν πλανώντων ὑμᾶς. I have written these things to you concerning those who mislead you.
1 John 2:27 Καὶ ὑμεῖς, τὸ χρίσμα ὃ ἐλάβετε ἀπ' αὐτοῦ ἐν ὑμῖν μένει, καὶ οὐ χρείαν ἔχετε ἵνα τις διδάσκῃ ὑμᾶς· ἀλλ' ὡς τὸ αὐτὸ χρίσμα διδάσκει ὑμᾶς περὶ πάντων, καὶ ἀληθές ἐστιν, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ψεῦδος, καὶ καθὼς ἐδίδαξεν ὑμᾶς, μενεῖτε ἐν αὐτῷ. And as for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you, but as the same anointing teaches you about all things, and is true, and is not a lie, so just as it has taught you, you will remain in him. you have no need for anyone to teach you: another reference to the new covenant, Jer 31:34.

in him: or in it.
1 John 2:28 Καὶ νῦν, τεκνία, μένετε ἐν αὐτῷ· ἵνα ὅταν φανερωθῇ, ἔχωμεν παρρησίαν, καὶ μὴ αἰσχυνθῶμεν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ παρουσίᾳ αὐτοῦ. And now, little children, remain in him, so that when he is made manifest we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming.
1 John 2:29 Ἐὰν εἰδῆτε ὅτι δίκαιός ἐστιν, γινώσκετε ὅτι πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν τὴν δικαιοσύνην ἐξ αὐτοῦ γεγέννηται. If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who does what is right has been begotten by him. by ← out of, showing the use of ἐκ, ἐξ for genetic or ancestral origin. The preposition ἐκ is used of genetic and ancestral origin in Matt 1:3, Matt 1:5, Matt 1:6, Matt 1:16, Luke 1:5, Luke 1:27, Luke 2:36, Phil 3:5, 1 John 2:29, and, we suggest, John 8:44. From 1 John 3:8, it would appear that the antichrists of 1 John 2:18-19 stem from the devil, as are those spoken to by Christ in John 8:44. Compare the fallen spirits / angels of 1 Pet 3:20, 2 Pet 2:10, 1 John 4:1, Jude 1:6.
1 John 3:1 Ἴδετε ποταπὴν ἀγάπην δέδωκεν ἡμῖν ὁ πατήρ, ἵνα τέκνα θεοῦ κληθῶμεν. Διὰ τοῦτο ὁ κόσμος οὐ γινώσκει {RP P1904: ὑμᾶς} [TR: ἡμᾶς], ὅτι οὐκ ἔγνω αὐτόν. See what great love the father has given us in that we should be called children of God. This is why the world does not know {RP P1904: you} [TR: us]: because it did not know him. ὑμᾶς, you, RP P1904 F1859=8/14 (Scrivener's b*fgklmno) vs. ἡμᾶς, us, TR F1859=6/14 (Scrivener's ab**cdhj). AV differs textually.

what great: especially in exclamations, ποταπός carries the notion of greatness. Compare Mark 13:1.

this is why ← on account of this.
1 John 3:2 Ἀγαπητοί, νῦν τέκνα θεοῦ ἐσμέν, καὶ οὔπω ἐφανερώθη τί ἐσόμεθα· οἴδαμεν δὲ ὅτι ἐὰν φανερωθῇ, ὅμοιοι αὐτῷ ἐσόμεθα, ὅτι ὀψόμεθα αὐτὸν καθώς ἐστιν. Beloved, we are now children of God, but it has not yet been made apparent what we shall be. But we do know that when he is made manifest, we shall be like him, because we will see him as he is. when ← if, but when also in John 12:32 (when I am lifted up). Apparently John's peculiar idiom.
1 John 3:3 Καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἔχων τὴν ἐλπίδα ταύτην ἐπ' αὐτῷ ἁγνίζει ἑαυτόν, καθὼς ἐκεῖνος ἁγνός ἐστιν. And everyone who puts this hope in him purifies himself, as he (the aforementioned) is pure. puts ← has. This makes it clear that the subsequent pronoun him is not reflexive (see note below).

him: the reference is to God (previous verse), or Christ (as in verse 5, though not named), as we have the definite pronoun, not the reflexive one.

he (the aforementioned)that (man), the former.
1 John 3:4 Πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν, καὶ τὴν ἀνομίαν ποιεῖ· καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία ἐστὶν ἡ ἀνομία. Everyone who commits sin also commits lawlessness – indeed sin is lawlessness.
1 John 3:5 Καὶ οἴδατε ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ἐφανερώθη, ἵνα τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν ἄρῃ· καὶ ἁμαρτία ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν. And you know that he was made manifest in order to take away our sins, and there is no sin in him. he ← that (man).
1 John 3:6 Πᾶς ὁ ἐν αὐτῷ μένων οὐχ ἁμαρτάνει· πᾶς ὁ ἁμαρτάνων οὐχ ἑώρακεν αὐτόν, οὐδὲ ἔγνωκεν αὐτόν. No-one who remains in him sins. No-one who sins has seen him or has come to know him. The apparent contradiction to 1 John 1:8 is resolved if we take the new covenant (see Jer 31:31-34, alluded to in this epistle at 1 John 2:20, 1 John 2:27) as a turning point where sinlessness comes in. Also in 1 Pet 1:8 the believers still do not know him, nor do they see him (yet they have faith), which puts them at odds with ↴

Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the towns around them committed fornication in a similar way to these, and they went out after alien flesh, so they are set before us as an example, as they undergo the penalty of age-abiding fire.
Jude 1:8 Ὁμοίως μέντοι καὶ οὗτοι ἐνυπνιαζόμενοι σάρκα μὲν μιαίνουσιν, κυριότητα δὲ ἀθετοῦσιν, δόξας δὲ βλασφημοῦσιν. Yet these also, dreaming, likewise defile the flesh and flout dominion and blaspheme those in glory. these: i.e. those of Jude 1:4.
