βρῶμα , -τος , τό ( cf. βιβρώσκω ), [in LXX chiefly for H400 ] food: Rom_14:15 ; Rom_14:20 , 1Co_8:6 ; 1Co_8:13 ; 1Co_10:3 ; pl ., Mat_14:15 , Mar_7:19 Luk_3:11 ; Luk_9:13 , 1Co_6:13 , 1Ti_4:3 , Heb_9:10 ; Heb_13:9 ; trop., of spiritual food, Joh_4:34 , 1Co_3:2 ( cf. βρῶσις ).†

βρῶμα [page 118] βρῶμα in MGr = rubbish, stench, dirt (Thumb, Handb. ). Pallis, in his Notes , p. 14, proposes to recognize this word which would be a variant of βρῶμος , whence we get bromine in Mar_7:19 . His rendering, which thing (or circumstance) clears away all impurities, ignores the true reading καθαρίζων : it would be better to take the latter as agreeing with ἀφεδρῶνα , by the lapse of concord so common in Rev ( Proleg. p. 9). But the RV supplies a much more satisfactory sense, though the new proposal is ingenious.
