This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
I send (ἐγὼ ἐξαποστέλλω)
Rev., better, send forth, giving the force of ἐξ. I emphatic.
Endued with power
The Rev. has properly substituted the simpler clothed, which, to the English reader, conveys the exact figure in the word. This metaphorical sense of clothed is found in classical Greek. Aristophanes has clothed with audacity; Homer, clothed with strength; Plutarch, clothed with nobility and wealth.
