Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
παραζηλόω [page 483]
In 1Co_10:22 this verb must be understood not as a simple statement of fact, but as connoting the intention of the speaker What! do we intend to rouse the Lord s jealousy? (Moffatt). In Psa. 36꞉ 1 [MT Psa_37:1 ]; Psa. 36꞉ 7-8 [MT Psa_37:7-8 ] μὴ παραζήλου , fret not thyself, noli aemulari , is the thrice-repeated burden of the Psalm in view of the infinite disorders of the world (see Church Cathedral Sermons , p. 203 ff.). The subst. is used in a good sense in Test. xii. patr. Zab. ix. 8 of the Lord s bringing all the Gentiles εἰς παραζήλωσιν αὐτοῦ , into zeal for Him.
