Greek Commentary for Luke 20:5
First aorist middle of συλλογιζομαι sullogizomai to bring together accounts, an old word, only here in the N.T. Mark and Matthew have διελογιζοντο dielogizonto (imperfect middle of διαλογιζομαι dialogizomai a kindred verb, to reckon between one another, confer). This form (διελογιζοντο dielogizonto) in Luke 20:14 below. [source]
Third-class condition with second aorist active subjunctive. Suppose we say! So in Luke 20:6. [source]
Only here in New Testament. The preposition, σύν , together, and the additional with themselves, denote a very close conference. [source]
