‏ 1 Corinthians 15:2

In what words I preached it unto you ( τιν λογο ευηγγελισαμην υμιν ). Almost certainly τις ( τιν λογο, locative or instrumental, in or with) here is used like the relative ος as is common in papyri (Moulton, Prolegomena, p. 93f.; Robertson, Grammar, p. 737f.). Even so it is not clear whether the clause depends on γνωριζω like the other relatives, but most likely so.

If we hold it fast ( ε κατεχετε ). Condition of first class. Paul assumes that they are holding it fast.

Except ye believed in vain ( εκτος ε μη εικη επιστευσατε ). For εκτος ε μη see on 14:5. Condition of first class, unless in fact ye did believe to no purpose ( εικη, old adverb, only in Paul in N.T.). Paul holds this peril over them in their temptation to deny the resurrection.
