‏ John 11:18

About fifteen furlongs off ( ως απο σταδιων δεκαπεντε ). The idiom of απο with the ablative for distance is like the Latin a millibus passum duobus (Caesar, Bell. Gall. ii. 7), but it ( προ also, Joh 12:1) occurs already in the Doric and in the Koine often (Moulton, Proleg., p. 101; Robertson, Grammar, p. 110). See it again in 21:8; Re 14:20.
