μηκέτι [page 409] For ἵνα μηκέτι , as in 2Co_5:15 , Eph_4:14 , cf. P Oxy III. 528 .23 (ii/A.D.) τούτους τοὺς λόγους λέγεις ἥνα ( l. ἵνα ) μηκέτι [[φ ]]π̣ιστευθῶ μου τὴν ἐνβολ [ήν , you say this to prevent my being believed any longer with regard to my embarkation (?) (Edd.). As showing that μή with the pres. imper. must not be pressed as necessarily meaning cease from doing something (cf. Proleg. p. 125 f.), Mr. H. D, Naylor draws our attention to the ἔτι in 1Ti_5:23 μηκέτι ὑδροπότει . If Paul thought that there could be no ambiguity in μὴ ὑδροπότει , why should he insert ἔτι at all? Surely it is obvious that μὴ ὑδ . might be a warning against an act not begun, and therefore ἔτι is essential (in Paul s Greek) to make the sense cease drinking water obvious at first sight.
