Pruning

An encouraging post on John 15:2-3.

  1. What do you make of the argument made in the comments about how vs. 2 should read "lift up" rather than "take away"?

    Thank you in advance for any input.

  2. Hi Mitch,

    Unfortunately, I don't know (koine) Greek, and so probably wouldn't be any more helpful than others who have already weighed in.

    I noticed that Bill Mounce discusses it though.

    Finally, I don't have a commentary in front of me right now, but maybe check out a commentary on John (e.g. Carson's, if you have access to it)?

    Sorry, wish I could've been more helpful.
