This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
If there be first a willing mind (εἰ ἡ προθυμία προκειται)
The error of the A.V. consists in regarding πρό in πρόκειται as indicating priority in time; be first; whereas it signifies position, before one; as “the hope, or the race, or the joy which is set before us.” Heb 6:18; Heb 12:1, Heb 12:2; or “the example which is set forth,” Jud 1:7. Hence Rev., correctly, if the readiness is there.
