{Lording it over} (katakurieuontes). Present active
participle of katakurieu(935c), late compound (kata, kurios) as in
Mt 20:25 . {The charge allotted to you} ( (936e) kl(8872)(936e)). "The
charges," "the lots" or "the allotments." See it in Ac 1:17,25
in this sense. The old word meant a die ( Mt 27:25 ), a portion
( Col 1:12 1Pe 1:4 ), here the charges assigned (cf. Ac 17:4 ).
From the adjective kl(8872)ikos come our cleric, clerical, clerk.
Wycliff translated it here "neither as having lordship in the
clergie." {Making yourselves ensamples} ( upoi ginomenoi).
Present active participle of ginomai and predicate nominative
upoi (types, models) for which phrase see 1Th 1:7 .
Continually becoming. See 2:21 for hupogrammos
(writing-copy). {To the flock} ( ou poimniou). Objective
genitive.
