Raw Greek Parsing Output¶
2 Thess 1:9¶
Greek Text: hoitines diken tisousin olethron aionion apo prosopou tou Kyriou kai apo tes doxes tes ischyos autou
Word-by-word: hoitines (hostis G3748, Rel Pron Nom Pl M) = 'who' diken (dike G1349, Acc Sg F) = 'penalty/justice' tisousin (tino G5099, Fut Act Ind 3P) = 'they will pay' olethron (olethros G3639, Acc Sg M) = 'destruction' aionion (aionios G166, Acc Sg M) = 'everlasting' apo (G575, PREP) = 'from' prosopou (prosopon G4383, Gen Sg N) = 'face/presence' tou (G3588, T-GSM) Kyriou (kyrios G2962, Gen Sg M) = 'of the Lord' kai (G2532, CONJ) apo (G575, PREP) = 'from' tes (G3588, T-GSF) doxes (doxa G1391, Gen Sg F) = 'glory' tes (G3588, T-GSF) ischyos (ischus G2479, Gen Sg F) = 'power/might' autou (autos G846, Gen Sg M) = 'his'
Key: olethron aionion = 'everlasting destruction.' olethros (destruction noun) modified by aionios (everlasting adjective). Both in accusative = the penalty they will pay. apo prosopou = 'from the presence/face' — can mean 'away from' (separation) or 'proceeding from' (source).
John 3:16¶
Greek Text: Houtos gar egapesen ho Theos ton kosmon, hoste ton Huion ton monogene edoken, hina pas ho pisteuon eis auton me apoletai all' eche zoen aionion.
Word-by-word: Houtos (houto G3779, ADV) = 'thus' gar (G1063, CONJ) = 'for' egapesen (agapao G25, Aor Act Ind 3S) = 'loved' ho (G3588, T-NSM) Theos (theos G2316, Nom Sg M) = 'God' ton (G3588, T-ASM) kosmon (kosmos G2889, Acc Sg M) = 'world' hoste (G5620, CONJ) = 'so that' ton (G3588, T-ASM) Huion (huios G5207, Acc Sg M) = 'Son' ton (G3588, T-ASM) monogene (monogenes G3439, Acc Sg M) = 'only begotten' edoken (didomi G1325, Aor Act Ind 3S) = 'gave' hina (G2443, CONJ) = 'in order that' pas (pas G3956, Nom Sg M) = 'every' ho (G3588, T-NSM) pisteuon (pisteuo G4100, Pres Act Ptcp Nom Sg M) = 'believing' eis (G1519, PREP) auton (autos G846, Acc Sg M) = 'him' me (G3361, PRT-N) = 'not' apoletai (apollymi G622, Aor Mid Subj 3S) = 'should perish' all' (alla G235, CONJ) = 'but' eche (echo G2192, Pres Act Subj 3S) = 'may have' zoen (zoe G2222, Acc Sg F) = 'life' aionion (aionios G166, Acc Sg F) = 'eternal'
Key: apollymi Aor Mid Subj 3S in purpose clause (hina me). The antithesis: me apoletai vs. eche zoen aionion = 'not perish but have eternal life.' Structural binary: perishing ≠ eternal life.
Matt 10:28¶
Greek Text: kai me phobeisthe apo ton apoktennonton to soma, ten de psychen me dynamenon apokteinai; phobeisthe de mallon ton dynamenon kai psychen kai soma apolesai en geenne.
Word-by-word: kai (G2532, CONJ) me (G3361, PRT-N) phobeisthe (phobeo G5399, Pres M/P Impv 2P) apo (G575, PREP) ton (G3588, T-GPM) apoktennonton (apokteino G615, Pres Act Ptcp Gen Pl M) = 'those killing' to (G3588, T-ASN) soma (soma G4983, Acc Sg N) = 'body' ten (G3588, T-ASF) de (G1161, CONJ) psychen (psyche G5590, Acc Sg F) = 'soul' me (G3361, PRT-N) dynamenon (dynamai G1410, Pres M/P Ptcp Gen Pl M) apokteinia (apokteino G615, Aor Act Inf) = 'to kill' phobeisthe (phobeo G5399, Pres M/P Impv 2P) de (G1161, CONJ) mallon (G3123, ADV) = 'rather' ton (G3588, T-ASM) dynamenon (dynamai G1410, Pres M/P Ptcp Acc Sg M) = 'the one being able' kai (G2532, CONJ) psychen (psyche G5590, Acc Sg F) = 'soul' kai (G2532, CONJ) soma (soma G4983, Acc Sg N) = 'body' apolesai (apollymi G622, Aor Act Inf) = 'to destroy' en (G1722, PREP) geenne (geenna G1067, Dat Sg F) = 'in gehenna'
Key: apokteino (G615, 'kill') used for what humans do to the body; apollymi (G622, 'destroy') used for what God does to soul AND body. Deliberate word choice: apollymi is lexically stronger than apokteino.
Rev 14:10¶
Greek Text: kai autos pietai ek tou oinou tou thymou tou Theou tou kekerasmenou akratou en to poterio tes orges autou, kai basanisthesetai en pyri kai theio enopion angelon hagion kai enopion tou Arniou.
Word-by-word: basanisthesetai (basanizo G928, Fut Pass Ind 3S) = 'he shall be tormented' en pyri (pyr G4442, Dat Sg N) = 'in/with fire' kai theio (theion G2303, Dat Sg N) = 'and brimstone/sulfur'
Key: basanizo (G928) = TORMENT vocabulary, NOT destruction vocabulary. Different word family from apollymi/apoleia/olethros. The torment is 'in the presence of' (enopion) holy angels and the Lamb — not hidden away but witnessed.
Rev 14:11¶
Greek Text: kai ho kapnos tou basanismou auton eis aionas aionon anabainei, kai ouk echousin anapausin hemeras kai nyktos hoi proskunountes to therion kai ten eikona autou, kai ei tis lambanei to charagma tou onomatos autou.
Word-by-word: kapnos (kapnos G2586, Nom Sg M) = 'smoke' basanismou (basanismos G929, Gen Sg M) = 'of torment' eis aionas aionon = 'into ages of ages' (= 'forever and ever') anabainei (anabaino G305, Pres Act Ind 3S) = 'ascends/goes up' ouk echousin anapausin (ou echo anapausis) = 'they do not have rest' hemeras kai nyktos = 'day and night' hoi proskunountes to therion = 'those worshiping the beast'
Key: basanismos (G929) = torment noun. kapnos anabainei = 'smoke ascends' — echoes Gen 19:28 (smoke of Sodom rising) and Isa 34:10 (Edom's smoke). In both OT cases, the smoke rises FROM completed destruction, not from ongoing burning. 'No rest day nor night' applies to beast-worshipers during judgment.
