1st Cor. 16:9

[Larry Kelsey]

Shlama Akhay,

While reviewing this post, an idiom and a popular phrase come to mind. The idiom is 'door of opportunity' and the relative phrase is "Opportunity only knocks once."

Shlama Akhay,

Here's a comparison study of 1 Cor. 16:9. I'll use the ASV and the Greek Interlinear compared with Murdock and Lamsa.

(ASV) "...for a great door AND EFFECTUAL is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries."

(Greek Interlinear) "...for a door to me has been opened great AND EFFICIENT, and opposers are many."

(Murdock) "...because a great door is opened to me, WHICH IS FULL OF OCCUPATIONS; and the opposers are numerous."

(Lamsa) "For a great door, FULL OF OPPORTUNITIES, is opened to me, and adversaries are many."
