{Hath taken} (eil(8870)hen). Perfect active indicative of
lamban(935c). {But such as man can bear} (ei m(8820)anthr(9370)inos).
Except a human one. Old adjective meaning falling to the lot of
man. {Above that ye are able} (huper ho dunasthe). Ellipsis,
but plain. There is comfort in that God is faithful, trustworthy
(pistos). {The way of escape} ( (886e) ekbasin). "The way out" is
always there right along with (sun) the temptation. This old
word only here in N.T. and Heb 13:7 about death. It is cowardly
to yield to temptation and distrustful of God.
