This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Turned (exekauthēsan). First aorist passive indicative, causative aorist, of ekkaiō, old verb, to burn out, to set on fire, to inflame with anger or lust. Here only in N.T.
Lust (orexei). Only here in N.T.
Unseemliness (aschēmosunēn). Old word from aschēmon (deformed). In N.T. only here and Rev 16:15.
Recompense (antimisthian). See note on 2Co 6:13 for only other N.T. instance of this late Pauline word, there in good sense, here in bad.
Which was due (hēn edei). Imperfect active for obligation still on them coming down from the past. This debt will be paid in full (apolambanontes, pay back as in Luk 6:34, and due as in Luk 23:41). Nature will attend to that in their own bodies and souls.
