Context — The Rights of Apostlesgenerated
1 Corinthians 9:7 is part of a broader argument where Paul defends the rights of apostles to receive support for their ministry. He uses relatable examples from everyday life to illustrate that it is common for workers to benefit from their labor. By referencing soldiers, farmers, and shepherds, Paul emphasizes that it is reasonable for spiritual leaders to expect similar support from their congregations, aligning with the principles found in the Law.

The Key Word — στρατεύεται, strateuōgenerated
The verb στρατεύω (i.e., *strateuō*) means 'to serve as a soldier' and is derived from the root related to armies. It conveys the idea of engaging in military service, which can also extend metaphorically to spiritual battles, as seen in 2 Timothy 2:3.
In this context, Paul asks who would serve in the military without compensation, highlighting the expectation that those who labor should receive their due. The present tense indicates a continuous action, suggesting that this is a general principle applicable in various situations.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The translations agree that the verse emphasizes the expectation of compensation for labor. The BSB uses serves as a soldier, while the KJV and ASV phrase it as goeth a warfare and serveth at his own charges, respectively.
Where they differ is in the rendering of specific terms: στρατεύεται as serves as a soldier (BSB) contrasts with goeth a warfare (KJV) and serveth at his own charges (ASV). The term καρπὸν is consistently translated as fruit across most versions, while ποίμνην is rendered as a flock in many translations.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb is στρατεύεται, serves as a soldier, which governs a series of rhetorical questions. Each question follows a similar structure, asking who performs a specific action without receiving benefits.
The verse comprises three clauses, each beginning with the interrogative pronoun τίς, introducing the subjects who engage in the actions of serving, planting, and tending.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
στρατεύω does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint but relates to military service concepts found throughout the Old Testament, where soldiers are often depicted as receiving provisions for their service.
The word ἀμπελῶνα corresponds to the Hebrew word for vineyard, כֶּרֶם, emphasizing the agricultural context in both the Old and New Testaments.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
1 Corinthians 9:7 uses rhetorical questions to demonstrate that just as soldiers, farmers, and shepherds benefit from their work, so too should those who minister in the church. Paul argues that it is reasonable for spiritual leaders to receive support for their labor.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Paul uses these questions to illustrate a common understanding that workers deserve compensation, reinforcing his argument for the rights of apostles.
These examples are relatable to his audience, emphasizing that just as these workers benefit from their labor, so should ministers of the gospel.
This verse supports the idea that church leaders should be provided for by the congregation, as they dedicate their lives to spiritual work.
Serving as a soldier in a spiritual context implies engaging in spiritual battles, where leaders are called to protect and guide their congregations.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways can I support those who minister to me spiritually?
- How can I apply the principle of fair compensation to my own work and relationships?
- What responsibilities do I have as a member of a church community?
- How does understanding the rights of ministers affect my view of church leadership?

The work of the ministry is a warfare, the minister’ s work in that age was so in a more eminent manner, as the opposition to those first ministers of the gospel, both from the Jews and from the heathens, was greater than what ministers have in later ages met with. Now, saith the apostle, none that lists an army, expects that his soldiers should maintain themselves without any pay. Who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? It is like the planting of a vineyard. The church, in Scripture, is called a vineyard, ,2.

Ver. 7. Who goeth a warfare, &c.] Ministers as they should be valiant as soldiers, diligent as husbandmen, vigilant as shepherds ( Pastor, arator, eques, &c.), so should they live from their labour, as every tinker and tapster doth. It is a sign of gasping devotion, when men are so close handed to their ministers whose very cold water goes not unrewarded.

A soldier receives his pay; the planter of a vineyard eats the fruit of it; and the owner of a flock is supported by selling the milk. The best MSS. omit the word “of” before “fruit.” It probably crept into later texts from the occurrence of that word with the “milk”; but a vineyard owner actually eats his fruit, whereas not only would it be strange to speak of “eating” milk, but the owner of flocks would really be sustained chiefly by the sale of the milk and the purchase of food with the money so…

Who goeth a warfare - at his own charges?] These questions, which are all supposed from the necessity and propriety of the cases to be answered in the affirmative, tend more forcibly to point out that the common sense of man joins with the providence of God in showing the propriety of every man living by the fruits of his labour. The first question applies particularly to the case of the apostle, τιςστρατευεταιιδιοιςοψωνιοις· Does a soldier provide his own victuals? οψωςιος is used to express the military pay or wages, by the Greek writers; for the Roman soldiers were paid not only in money but in victuals; and hence corn was usually distributed among them. See Clarke on Lu 3:14.

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Quis militat suis stipendiis umquam ? quis plantat vineam, et de fructu ejus non edit ? quis pascit gregem, et de lacte gregis non manducat ?
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

τίς is an interrogative pronoun meaning 'who,' 'which,' or 'what,' used in both direct and indirect questions. It can function as a substantive, adjective, or adverb, appearing in various contexts throughout the New Testament, such as in Matthew 3:7 and John 18:23. The neuter form τί also means 'what' or 'which.' There are instances where τίς may be used interchangeably with other pronouns like ποῖος.

στρατεύω (i.e., *strateuō*) primarily means to serve in a military capacity, derived from the word for an army. In the New Testament, it is used both literally, referring to soldiers (e.g., Luke 3:14), and metaphorically, to describe spiritual warfare (e.g., 2 Corinthians 10:3). The lexicons indicate a consistent understanding of the term's military and metaphorical applications without significant disagreement.

The Greek word ἴδιος (i.dios) means 'one's own' or 'private.' It conveys a sense of personal ownership or belonging, often contrasting with what is public or shared. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts referring to personal property, family, and private matters, such as in John 1:11 and Galatians 6:5. The word can also imply distinctiveness or peculiarity, as seen in various classical texts.

(as against Deissmann BS p. 123 f.), and cf. Souter (Zex. s.v.) where the word is rendered ‘‘one’s own,’’ ‘‘ belonging to one,” ‘‘private,’’ ‘* personal,” without any mention of a weaker meaning.

The Greek word ὀψώνιον (opsonion) refers to provisions or pay, particularly for soldiers. It is derived from the root related to food and buying, and encompasses wages or compensation in various contexts, including metaphorical uses like the 'wages of sin' in Romans 6:23. The term appears in several New Testament passages, emphasizing its association with payment and provisions.

[in LXX: I Es 4:56, I Mac 3:28 14:32*;]
provisions, provision-money, soldiers' pay: Lk 3:14, I Co 9:7.
Generally, wages, hire: II Co 11:8; ὄ. τῆς ἁμαρτίας, Ro 6:23 (v. Deiss, BS, 148, 266).†
ὀψώνιον, -ov, τό, (fr. ὄψον ---- on which see ὀψάριον, init. —and ὠνέομαι to buy), a later Grk. word (cf. Sturz, De dial. Maced. et Alex. p. 187; Phryn. ed. Lob. p. 418), prop. whatever is bought to be eaten with bread, as fish, flesh, and the like (see ὀψάριον). And as corn, meat, fruits, salt, were given to soldiers instead of pay (Caes. b. g. 1, 23, 1; Polyb. 1, 66 sq.; 3, 13, 8), ὀψώνιον began to signify 1. univ. a soldier’s pay, allowance, (Polyb. 6, 39,12; Dion. Hal. antt. 9, 36), more commonly in the plur. [W. 176 (166); B. 24 (21)] ὀψώνια, prop. that part of a soldier’s support given in place of pay [i e. rations] and the money in which he is paid (Polyb. 1, 67, 1; 6, 39, 15; 1 Mace. iii. 28; xiv. 82; 1 Esdr. iv. 56; Joseph. antt. 12, 2, 3): Lk. iii. 14; 1 Co. ix. 7 [οἷ W. § 31, 7 d.]. 2. metaph. rages: sing. 2 Co. xi. 8; τῆς ἁμαρτίας, the hire that sin pays, Ro. vi 23.°…

Φάγε. p. 420), is said tohave entered the Greek language with Menander (Fr. 1051 : cf. Sturz Dial. Mac. p. 187), and is freely used by Polybius (vi. 39.12 ὀψώνιον δ᾽ οἱ πεζοὶ λαμβάνουσι τῆς ἡμέρας δύο ὀβολούς : cf. Kalker, p. 294) and other late writers (see Wetstein ad Lk 3! and Durham Jfenander, p. 83). It is very common in the papyri and inscrr., and its various uses may be illustrated as follows :—(1) For the meaning “‘ provisions” see P Oxy III. 531 (ii/a.D.) where, after various pieces of good advice, a father writes to his son—? ® ἕως πρὸς σὲ ἔλθῃ ᾿Ανουβᾶς ἀπὸ Tod σοῦ χαλκοῦ Td ὀψώνιόν σου καὶ τῶν σῶν ἐξοδίασον ἕως πέμψω, ‘until however Anoubas arrives, you must pay for the provisions of yourself and your household out of your own money, until I send you some” (Edd.).

tim: The basis of the Hebrew measurement of time was the day and the lunar month, as with the Semites generally. The division of the day into hours was late, probably not common until after the exile, although the sun-dial of Ahaz (2Ki 20:9; Isa 38:8) would scent to indicate some division of the day into periods of some sort, as we know the night was divided, The word used for "hour" is Aramaic she`a' (sha`ta'), and does not occur in the Old Testament until the Book of Daniel (4:33; 5:5), and even there it stands for an indefinite period for which "time" would answer as well.
1. The Day:
The term "day" (yom) was in use from the earliest times, as is indicated in the story of the Creation (Ge 1). It there doubtless denotes an indefinite period, but is marked off by "evening and…
Besides the ordinary uses of this word, the Bible sometimes employs it to denote a year, as in Da 4:16; or a prophetic year, consisting of three hundred and sixty natural year, a day being taken for a year. Thus in Da 7:25 12:7, the phrase "a time, times, and the dividing of a time" is supposed to mean three and a half prophetic years, or 1,260 natural years. This period is elsewhere paralleled by the expression, "forty-two months," each month including thirty years, Re 11:2-3 12:6,14 13:5.

τίς is an interrogative pronoun meaning 'who,' 'which,' or 'what,' used in both direct and indirect questions. It can function as a substantive, adjective, or adverb, appearing in various contexts throughout the New Testament, such as in Matthew 3:7 and John 18:23. The neuter form τί also means 'what' or 'which.' There are instances where τίς may be used interchangeably with other pronouns like ποῖος.

φυτεύω (phuteuō) means 'to plant' and is derived from the word for 'plant' (φυτόν). It encompasses literal planting, such as trees and vineyards, and metaphorical uses, including instilling doctrine or begetting children. In the New Testament, it appears in verses like Matthew 21:33 and 1 Corinthians 3:6-8.

The Greek word ἀμπελών (i.e., *ampelōn*) means 'a vineyard.' It is derived from ἄμπελος and appears in various contexts, including the New Testament in passages like Matthew 20:1 and 21:28. The term has a consistent meaning across the lexicons, with no significant disagreement noted.
ἀμπελών, -ῶνος, ὁ

[in LXX for כֶּרֶם;]
a vineyard: Mt 20:1 ff. Mt 21:28 ff, Lk 13:6 20:9 ff., I Co 9:7. Æschin., 49, 13; Diod., al.; v. MM, VGT, s.v.; LS, s.v. ἀμπελουργεῖον.)
ἀμπελών, -vos, ὁ, a vineyard: Mt. xx. 1 sqq.; xxi. 28, [33], 39 sqq.; Mk. xii. 1 sqq.; Lk. [xiii 6]; xx. 9 sqq.; 1 Co. ix. 7. (Sept.; Diod. 4,6; Plut. pro nobilit. c. 3.)
ἀμπελών. Nothing earlier than Diodorus (i/B.c.) in ‘‘ profane” Greek is cited for this word by Grimm. It occurs in five documents of P Tebt I., three of them ii/B.c.,and two a little later: cf. also the Ptolemaic P Eleph 14? τῶν μὲν ἀμπελώνων τοὺς καθήκοντας ἀργυρικοὺς φόρους. Its appearance in P Hib I. 151 (c. B.C. 250) is presumably coeval with the LXX; nor does the language (. . . μὴ παραγίνεσθαι «ον τρυγήσοντα Toy ἀμπελῶνα, from a fragment of a letter) suggest that the word was new. It occurs indeed frequently in Rev L, a few years older still. For an instance contemporary with its NT appearances, see PSI 82° (A.D. 65) ᾿Αμπλίας 28 τῶι ὑπάρχοντι ἡμῖν... ἀμπελῶνι: cf. P Tebt II. 357%® (A.D. 197) τέλ(η) . . . ἀμπελῶνο(ς) κατοικ(ικοῦ) (ἀρούρας) a, ‘‘taxes upon I aroura of catcecic vine-land.” The suffix -dy (like -é¢z in Latin) denoting plantations of trees was productive in…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

The Greek word ἐκ (transliterated as ek) is a preposition that means 'from' or 'out of,' governing the genitive case. It indicates origin, separation, or motion away from a place, time, or cause. In the New Testament, it is used to denote various relationships, such as source or distinction, and appears in contexts like John 6:31 and Matthew 1:3. Different lexicons highlight its versatility in both literal and metaphorical senses.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word καρπός (i.e., *karpos*) means 'fruit' and can refer to the produce of trees, vines, and fields. It also has metaphorical uses, indicating results or benefits from actions, such as good works or praise. The New Testament uses it in various contexts, including offspring (Lk 1:42) and spiritual fruit (Gal 5:22). Dodson notes it as 'result' or 'gain,' while Liddell-Scott mentions its use in relation to taxes and profits.

Fruit
A word as used in Scripture denoting produce in general, whether vegetable or animal. The Hebrews divided the fruits of the land into three classes:,
(1.) The fruit of the field, “corn-fruit” (Heb. dagan); all kinds of grain and pulse.
(2.) The fruit of the vine, “vintage-fruit” (Heb. tirosh); grapes, whether moist or dried.
(3.) “Orchard-fruits” (Heb. yitshar), as dates, figs, citrons, etc.
Injunctions concerning offerings and tithes were expressed by these Hebrew terms alone (Num. 18:12; Deut. 14:23). This word “fruit” is also used of children or offspring (Gen. 30:2; Deut. 7:13; Luke 1:42;

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

ἐσθίω is a Greek verb meaning 'to eat,' with various uses ranging from literal consumption of food to metaphorical senses like 'devour' or 'consume.' It appears in several New Testament passages, including Matthew 14:20 and Hebrews 10:27. The word is related to the Hebrew term for eating and has variations in different tenses, but there is no significant disagreement among lexicons regarding its meaning.

The Greek word ἤ (ē) is a particle used to indicate distinction, functioning as a disjunctive 'or' and a comparative 'than.' It appears frequently in the New Testament, often in phrases like 'either...or' and in disjunctive questions. Notably, it can also express comparisons after comparative terms, such as in Matthew 10:15. The entries do not show any significant disagreement.

Jonath. ad ᾿ς lili. 10), the kingdom of the Messiah, which will be founded by God through the Messiah and over which the Messiah will preside as God’s vicegerent; ἡ Bac. τῶν οὐρανῶν, only in Matthew, but very frequently [some 33 times], the kingdom of heaven, i. e. the kingdom which is of heavenly or divine origin and nature (in rabbin. writ. nown mao is the rule of God, the theocracy viewed universally, not the Messianic kingdom); sometimes simply ἡ βασιλεία : Mt. iv. 23, ete.; Jas. ii. 5; once ἡ Bac. τοῦ Δαυείδ, because it was supposed the Messiah would be one of David’s descendants and a king very like David, Mk. xi. 10; once also ἡ Bac. τοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ θεοῦ, Eph. ν. 5.

But in late Greek μή has encroached very largely upon οὐ, with the result that in the NT οὐ is almost entirely confined to the indicative, while μή monopolizes the other moods (but see I. 5). A few exx. of some of the many uses of μή will make this clear. I. Μή negatives (1) the conjunctive (a) after ἐάν (4v)—P Oxy II. 294%?

τίς is an interrogative pronoun meaning 'who,' 'which,' or 'what,' used in both direct and indirect questions. It can function as a substantive, adjective, or adverb, appearing in various contexts throughout the New Testament, such as in Matthew 3:7 and John 18:23. The neuter form τί also means 'what' or 'which.' There are instances where τίς may be used interchangeably with other pronouns like ποῖος.

ποιμαίνω is built from the root ποιμήν and means to shepherd or tend flocks. It covers both literal and metaphorical uses, such as governing or caring for people, as seen in various New Testament passages like Luke 17:7 and John 21:16. Lexicographers note a distinction between ποιμαίνω and βόσκω, with the former encompassing a broader sense of shepherding that includes guiding and protecting.
WHILE βόσκειν and ποιμαίνειν are both often employed in a figurative and spiritual sense in the O. T. (1 Chron. xi. 2; Ezek. xxxiv. 3; Ps. lxxvii. 72; Jer. xxiii. 2), and ποιμαίνειν in the New; the only occasions in the latter, on which βόσκειν is so used, are John xxi. 15, 17. There our Lord, giving to St. Peter that thrice-repeated commission to feed his “lambs” (ver. 15), his “ sheep ” (ver. 16), and again his “ sheep” (ver. 17), uses first βόσκε, then secondly ποίμαινε, returning to βόσκε at the last.

ποίμνη (poimnē) primarily means a flock, especially of sheep. It is used literally in contexts like Luke 2:8 and metaphorically to refer to Christ's followers in John 10:16. The word is derived from a root related to shepherding, indicating its connection to guidance and care.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word ἐκ (transliterated as ek) is a preposition that means 'from' or 'out of,' governing the genitive case. It indicates origin, separation, or motion away from a place, time, or cause. In the New Testament, it is used to denote various relationships, such as source or distinction, and appears in contexts like John 6:31 and Matthew 1:3. Different lexicons highlight its versatility in both literal and metaphorical senses.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

milk (chalabh; gala; Latin lac (2 Esdras 2:19; 8:10)): The fluid secreted by the mammary glands of female mammals for the nourishment of their young. The word is used in the Bible of that of human beings (Isa 28:9) as well as of that of the lower animals (Ex 23:19). As a food it ranked next in importance to bread (Ecclesiasticus 39:26). Palestine is frequently described as a land "flowing with milk and honey" (Ex 3:8,17; Nu 13:27; De 6:3; Jos 5:6; Jer 11:5; Eze…
Milk
(1.) Hebrew halabh, “new milk”, milk in its fresh state (Judg. 4:19). It is frequently mentioned in connection with honey (Ex. 3:8; 13:5; Josh. 5:6; Isa. 7:15, 22; Jer. 11:5). Sheep (Deut. 32:14) and goats (Prov. 27:27) and camels (Gen. 32:15), as well as cows, are made to give their milk for the use of man. Milk is used figuratively as a sign of abundance (Gen. 49:12;
As an article of diet, milk holds a more important position in eastern countries than with us. It is not a mere adjunct in cookery, or restricted to the use of the young, although it is naturally the characteristic food of childhood, both from its simple and nutritive qualities. (1 Peter 2:2) and particularly as contrasted with meat, (1 Corinthians 3:2; Hebrews 5:12) but beyond this it is regarded as substantial food adapted alike to all ages and classes. Not only the milk of cows, but of sheep, (32:14) of camels, (Genesis 32:15) and of goats, (Proverbs 27:27) was used; that latter appears to have been most highly…
Is often alluded to in the Bible, as a symbol of pure, simple, and wholesome truth, Heb 5:12,13 1Pe 2:2; and in connection with honey, to denote fertility and plenty, Ge 49:12 Nu 16:13 Jos 5:6. The Jews and their neighbors used not only the milk of cows, but also that of camels, sheep, and goats, Ge 32:15 De 32:14 Pr 27:27. See BUTTER and CHEESE.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.
Lamentations 3:1.
The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

ποίμνη (poimnē) primarily means a flock, especially of sheep. It is used literally in contexts like Luke 2:8 and metaphorically to refer to Christ's followers in John 10:16. The word is derived from a root related to shepherding, indicating its connection to guidance and care.
ποίμνη, -ns, 9, (contr. fr. ποιμένη ; see ποιμήν), [fr. Hom. (Od. 9, 122) on], a flock (esp.) of sheep: Mt. xxvi. 31; Lk. ii. 8; 1 Co. ix. 7; trop. [of Christ’s flock i.e.] the body of those who follow Jesus as their guide and keeper, Jn. > UBS
ποίμνη. Thumb (He“/en. p. 1421.) cites φήμνης = ποίμνης from a wax tablet of iii/A.D. containing fragments of Babrius and published in J HS xiii. (1892-3), p. 294 ff.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

ἐσθίω is a Greek verb meaning 'to eat,' with various uses ranging from literal consumption of food to metaphorical senses like 'devour' or 'consume.' It appears in several New Testament passages, including Matthew 14:20 and Hebrews 10:27. The word is related to the Hebrew term for eating and has variations in different tenses, but there is no significant disagreement among lexicons regarding its meaning.

Drink
The drinks of the Hebrews were water, wine, “strong drink,” and vinegar. Their drinking vessels were the cup, goblet or “basin,” the “cruse” or pitcher, and the saucer.
To drink water by measure (Ezek. 4:11), and to buy water to drink (Lam. 5:4), denote great scarcity. To drink blood means to be satiated with slaughter.
The Jews carefully strained their drinks through a sieve, through fear of violating the law of Lev. 11:20, 23, 41, 42. (See Matt. 23:24. “Strain at” should be “strain out.”)
