(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Thou hast (echeis). Continued possession of patience.

Didst bear (ebastasas). First aorist indicative of bastazō, repeated reference to the crisis in Rev 2:2.

And hast not grown weary (kai ou kekopiakes). Perfect active indicative of kopiaō, old verb, to grow weary (Mat 6:28), play on the word kopos, late form in ̇es, for the regular ̇as (lelukas). like aphēkes (Rev 2:4) and peptōkes (Rev 2:5). “Tired in loyalty, not of it. The Ephesian church can bear anything except the presence of impostors in her membership” (Moffatt).
