CHAPTER XXV.

EFFECTUAL CALLING.

1. What is the New Testament usage of the words kaλew (to call), Kλjois (calling), and Kλnτós (called)? |

(A) Kaleo signifies to call, to call together, to summon; with Infin., to call on, to summon to do a thing. In the Pass. to be called, to be destined, or to be chosen; to call to one's house, to call on or invoke the gods. (3) To call by name, to address by name. In the Pass. to be named, to receive a name; and in Perf. to have been named, and so to be called; the Pass. frequently signifies to be, because one is generally what one is called. (y)Of things, to require, to demand. This Verb only occurs in the following

when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee. 11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

12 Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, 13 But and a recompence be made thee. when thou makest a feast, call the poor, 14 and the maimed, the lame, the blind: thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just. 15 And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God. 16 Then

said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many : 17 and sent that were bidden, Come; for all things his servant at supper time to say to them are now ready.
