participle of ech(935c), loose use of the participle (almost like
eiche, imperfect) and not in agreement with autou, genitive
case. This is a common idiom in the book; a Hebraism, Charles

keeping as in  Joh 10:28 . {Seven stars} (asteras hepta).

ekporeuomai, old compound ( Mt 3:5 ) used loosely again like
ech(936e). {A sharp two-edged sword} (
omphaia distomos oxeia).

machair(8873) in  Lu 21:24  (by the mouth of the sword).

here,  Joh 7:24  11:44 . {As the sun shineth} (h(9373) ho h(886c)ios
