{But younger widows refuse} (
e(9374)eras de ch(8872)as paraitou).
Present middle imperative as in 4:7 . "Beg off from." They lack
experience as above and they have other ambitions. {When they
have waxed wanton} (hotan katastr(886e)ias(9373)in). First aorist
(ingressive) active subjunctive of katastr(886e)ia(935c), late compound
(only here and Ignatius), to feel the impulse of sexual desire,
but simplex str(886e)ia(935c) ( Re 18:7,9 ). Souter renders it here
"exercise youthful vigour against Christ" ( ou Christou,
genitive case after kata in composition).
