Mark

[John Reece]

NA27 Text (Mark 7:24a):

Ἐκεῖθεν δὲ ἀναστὰς ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὰ ὅρια Τύρου.

Transliteration (Accordance):

Ekeithen de anastas apēlthen eis ta horia Tyrou.

Translation (ESV)

And from there he arose and went away to the region of Tyre and Sidon.

Analysis (Zerwick):

ἐκεῖθεν : from there/that place.
ἀναστάς : translate he arose and, aorist (intransitive) participle of ἀνίστημι, graphic participle.*
ὅριον : boundary ; plural region, district.
Τύρου : [[variant add καὶ Σιδῶνος]]**

*"Graphic" participles are those which express a concomitant or preceding action which is implicit in the verb to which they are added, certain idioms however adding participles as a matter of course (BG §363).
**7.24 Τύρου {B} The words καὶ Σιδῶνος seem to be an assimilation to Mt 15.21 and Mk 7.31. If they had been present originally, there is no reason why they should have been deleted. The witnesses in support of the shorter text include representatives of the Western and other types of text. ― Bruce Metzger, A Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament.

Analysis (Zerwick):

ἀκούσασα : aorist feminine participle of ἀκούω hear.

NA27 Text (Mark 7:27b):

οὐ γάρ ἐστιν καλὸν λαβεῖν τὸν ἄρτον τῶν τέκνων καὶ τοῖς κυναρίοις βαλεῖν.

Transliteration (Accordance):

ou gar estin kalon labein ton arton tōn teknōn kai tois kynariois balein.

Translation (ESV)

for it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

Analysis (Zerwick):

καλός : good, right, fitting.
λαβεῖν : aorist infinitive of λαμβάνω take.
κυνάριον : diminutive of κύων, κυνός, ὁ dog ; if diminutive is to be stressed it will be to soften the apparently harsh reference to pagans, but.*

*Later Greek, and especially popular speech, tended to the use of diminutives without diminutive sense. Hence παιδίον is simply equivalent to παῖς, nor can stress be laid in Mark on the diminutive forms 6:22 κοράσιον (for κόρη), 7:27 κυνάριον (for κύων), 7:25 θυγάτριον (for θυγάτηρ) (BG §485).

[John Reece]

NA27 Text (Mark 7:28):

Analysis (Zerwick):

ἡ δέ : in narration and/but she.
ἀπεκρίθη : aorist deponent of ἀποκρίνομαι answer ; followed by present λέγει, historic present being perhaps felt as more historic than present; Moulton adduces modern Greek parallels.
κύριε : vocative of κύριος sir.
καί (2nd time) even.
ὑποκάτω : (with genitive) = ὑπό under.
τράπεζα : table.
ἀπό : for partitive genitive.
ψιχίον : crumb.
παιδίον : diminutive of παῖς climb ; in this text no less that four diminutives, their very frequency in popular speech tending to weaken their sense.*

*Later Greek, and especially popular speech, tended to the use of diminutives without diminutive sense. Hence παιδίον is simply equivalent to παῖς, nor can stress be laid in Mark on the diminutive forms 6:22 κοράσιον (for κόρη), 7:27 κυνάριον (for κύων), 7:25 θυγάτριον (for θυγάτηρ) (BG §485).
