Foot notes:
[1*]Both the Authorized and the Revised Versions of Heb. ix. 15-16 give countenance to the assumption that our Saviour made his last will and testament, and by his death gave it validity. But in that case would not his resurrection three days later, have rendered it null and void? The subject under discussion in Hebrews ix. is not two testaments or wills, but two covenants or agreements; and the death referred to seems to be not the death of a "testator," or mediator but the death of the sacrifice which was offered after the custom of ancient times when a solemn covenant was made, and whose blood sprinkled on the ground and over the covenanting parties, sealed the covenant, which was of no force until the sacrifice was slain. The first covenant was sealed with the blood of calves and goats; the second covenant with the blood of the Son of God. Heb. ix. 15-26; xiii. 20; Exod. xxiv. 4-8; Gen. xv. 8-18; Mark xiv. 24. He was not only the mediator of the new covenant, but also the sacrifice which sealed it, all types combining in Him. For an extended discussion of this subject, consulting Macknight on The Epistles, and Granville Penn's Notes on The New Covenant. Heb. ix. 15-16.
TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES:
The first and most obvious change from the original printed publication is that the dual column layout has been abandoned and replaced with a single column layout. This was done with the aim of making scrolling through the content easier.
Since no table of contents was provided in the printed publication, a small hyperlinked table has been added to allow for direct access to each letter of the Greek alphabet in both the Main Lexicon and the Supplement to the Lexicon sections.
The Main Lexicon term entries have a light blue background while the Supplement term entries have a light yellow background. This is to assist visually in determining which section a hyperlink has moved the reading into or out of.
The automatic numbering of each lexical entry within an alphabetic section has been inserted to facilitate cross-referencing terms and hyperlinked roots throughout this ebook document. NOTE: For those readers who might be familiar with the Strong Concordance cross-reference numbering system used in that publication (and many others), the numbering used here is NOT related in any way. NOTE 2: For web browsers or reading systems that do not support this function, no real functionality is lost.
In the original publication, many hundreds of hard and soft "breathing" marks seem to have been truncated during the printing process for words beginning with vowels. The transcriber has painstakingly researched each missing entry and restored the missing diacritical mark. Due to the volume of this restoration, a listing of each is not provided here.
