{Is ripe} (paradoi, second aorist subjunctive with hotan). Whenever the fruit yields itself or permits. {Putteth forth} (apostellei). Sends forth the sickle. The word for _apostle_ comes from this verb. See Joh 4:38 : "I sent you forth to reap" (ego apesteila hum(8373) therizein). Sickle (drepanon) here by metonymy stands for the reapers who use it when the harvest stands ready for it (parest(886b)en, stands by the side, present perfect indicative). |
