Title: WHY DOES LUKE 16:2,3,4 USE THE GREEK WORD DISPENSATION ? Post by: dan p on June 03, 2020, 07:13:02 PM Hi to all and in Luke 16:2 , the word STEWARDSHIP/OIKONOMIA is used , in the GENITIVE CASE which means the steward is in POSSESSION of that STEWARDSHIP.
Also in verse 2 we see the word STEWARD / OIKONOMEO and is in the Greek PRESENT TENSE ACTIVE VOICE which means that this STEWARD is CONTINUALLY a STEWARD . Then in verse 3 we see THE STEWARDSHIP / OIKONOMIA or DISPENSATION , but in the ACCUSATIVE CASE which means that this DISPENSATION is LIMITED to this STEWARD in verse 3 . Then in verse 4 we see of the stewardship , Translated DISPENSATION , but is in the GENITIVE CASE which means that STEWARD is in POSSESSION of that DISPENSATION . I believe it speaks to Israel ! dan p |
