Epi oversee the episcopos. All right moving clockwise down. The one that's going out of is Eck and we remember that from Exegesis, that's right. That's right moving down clockwise away from is Appa and we think of like Apostles one who is sent or away or sent from.

And then what? Ego is I. M -A? Pharisaios, a son of a? Pharisaion, right? All right. Now, though the many of the following are cognates, the words customarily used to translate them may surprise you. All right, so let's look at, let's look at how some of these are translated.

These are the ancients to the ancients. And here's the part that you need to hear, because when the Jews translated their own Bible into Greek, they didn't go looking for a brand new word. They grabbed the same word that every Greek person already knew, gigantes, giants, the very same word that was stamped all over the wall in Pergamum, the very same word that pointed to the very same creatures that the gods were apparently destroying.

Hemeis antropoj esmen. Kai ūto eisi boes. Ego presbytees eimi. Hemeis presbytyroj este. Ūto esti poterion. Haute esti poteria. Ego būs eimi. Ūhi! Ūsu gar hipos ei. Ūsu hipos ei. Ūhi! Ego gar anerei mi.

And we're going to stand and give honor to God's word as we read it. And we'll read verse 22 down through the end. It says in verse 22,. So Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said, Men of Athens, I perceive in every way that you are very religious.

Thank you, Becky. We come back to our study in Acts, chapter 17, as we've been looking at Paul's address to the Greeks at the Areopagus. I'll start reading in verse 22 to the end of the chapter.

So we're going to go through these real quick, because these will be on every page when you're reading or you're looking at the Greek New Testament. The other side of this are some verses, and what we're going to do as a class is we're going to, based on what you know already and what you've learned, we're going to go through these verses and find the words that you recognize, okay?

For us, hemartion epoieson, sin he was made. And then it goes on. Ena, in order that we become righteousness of God. And the word theou there, those of you young people who've done the Greek class with me, so I've taught you the letters, the letter that looks like this.

This is Codex Alexandrinus. I'm going to zoom in right here. And there it is right there. Eta. See that? Those three letters there, eta. The world is going to tell you this week not to believe that that's true.
