Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
παραζηλόω. In 1 Cor τοῦξ this verb must be understood not as a simple statement ot fact, but as connoting the intention of the speaker—‘‘ What! do we intend to rouse the Lord’s jealousy ?” (Moffatt). In Ps 36178 μὴ παραζήλου, ‘fret not thyself,’’ s0/¢ aemaudlarz, is the thrice-repeated burden of the Psalm in view of ‘‘the infinite disorders of the world” (see Church Cathedral Sermons, p. 203 ff.). The subst. is used in a good sense in Zest. xiz. patr. Zab. ix. 8 of the Lord’s bringing all the Gentiles els παραζήλωσιν αὐτοῦ, ‘ into zeal for Him.
