Mark 9:20
Tare him grievously ( συνεσπαραξεν αυτον ). Lu 9:42 has both ερρηξεν (dashed down, like Mr 9:18, ρησσε ) and συνεσπαραξεν (convulsed). This compound with συν- (together with), strengthens the force of the verb as in συνπνιγω (Mr 4:7) and συντηρεω (6:20). The only other instance of this compound verb known is in Maximus Tyrius (second century B.C.).Wallowed ( εκυλιετο ). Imperfect passive, was rolled. A pitiful sight. Late form of the old κυλινδω.
