{But if any man say unto you} (ean de tis humin eip(8869)).
Condition of third class. Suppose at such a banquet a "weak"
brother makes the point to you: "This hath been offered in
sacrifice" (	outo hierothuton estin). Hierothuton, late word
in Plutarch, rare in inscriptions and papyri, only here in N.T.
{Eat not} (m(8820)esthiete). Present imperative with m(885c)
prohibiting the habit of eating then. Pertinent illustration to
the point of doing what is expedient and edifying. {That shewed
it} (	on m(886e)usanta). First aorist active articular participle
(accusative case because of dia) from m(886e)u(935c), old verb, to
point out, to disclose. See  Lu 20:37 .
