‏ 1 Corinthians 10:10

 Neither murmur ye ( μηδε γογγυζετε ). Implying that some of them were murmuring. For this late picturesque onomatopoetic verb see on Mt 20:11. The reference seems to be to Nu 16:41f. after the punishment of Korah.

 By the destroyer ( υπο του ολοθρευτου ). This word, from  ολοθρευω (late verb from  ολεθρος, destruction) occurs only here, so far as known. The reference is to the destroying angel of Ex 12:23 ( ο ολοθρευων ).
