προσέρχομαι; imperfect 3 person plural προσήρχοντο (Acts 28:9); (future 3 person singular προσελεύσεται, Luke 1:17 WH marginal reading); 2 aorist 3 person plural προσῆλθον and (so L Tr WH in Matthew 9:28; Matthew 13:36; Matthew 14:15; T Tr WH in Matthew 5:1; Luke 13:31; WH in Matthew 19:3; Matthew 21:23; John 12:21) in the Alex. form προσῆλθαν (see ἀπέρχομαι, and ἔρχομαι); perfect προσελήλυθα (Hebrews 12:18, 22); from Aeschylus and Herodotus down; the Sept. for קָרַב and נָגַשׁ; to come to, to approach (πρός, IV. 1);

a. properly, absolutely, Matthew 4:11; Luke ( WH marginal reading); ; Acts 8:29; Acts 28:9; προσῆλθον λέγοντες, Luke 13:31; with rhetorical fullness of description (see ἀνίστημι, II. 1 c. (also ἔρχομαι, p. 250b bottom)) the participle προσελθών is joined to a finite verb which denotes a different action: Matthew 8:2 L T Tr WH, Matthew 8:19, 25; Matthew 9:20; Matthew 13:10, 27; Matthew 14:12; Matthew 15:12, 23; Matthew 16:1; Matthew 17:7 (R, G); T Tr WH marginal reading (according to a reading no doubt corrupt (cf. Scrivener, lntroduction, p. 16)), ; ; Mark 1:31; Mark 10:2; Mark 12:28; (Mark 14:35 Tr WH marginal reading); Luke 7:14; Luke 8:24, 44; Luke 9:12, 42; Luke 10:34; Luke 20:27; Luke 23:36; Acts 22:26f; προσέρχομαι followed by an infinitive indicating the reason why one has drawn near, Matthew 24:1; Acts 7:31; Acts 12:13 (here WH marginal reading προηλθε); with a dative of the place (examples from Greek authors are given in Passow, under the word, 1 a., p. 1190a; (Liddell and Scott, under the word, I. 1)), Hebrews 12:18, 22; with the dative of a person (see Lexicons as above), Matthew 5:1; Matthew 8:5; Matthew 9:14, 28; Matthew 13:36; Matthew 14:15; Matthew 15:1, 30; Matthew 17:14, 24; Matthew 18:1; Matthew 19:3; Matthew 20:20; Matthew 21:14, 23; Matthew 22:23; Matthew 24:3; Matthew 26:7, 17, 69; John 12:21; Acts 10:28; Acts 18:2; Acts 24:23 Rec.; (with ἐπί and the accusative Acts 20:13 Tr WH marginal reading).

b. tropically, α. προσέρχεσθαι τῷ Θεῷ, to draw near to God in order to seek his grace and favor, Hebrews 7:25; Hebrews 11:6; τῷ θρόνῳ τῆς χάριτος, Hebrews 4:16; without τῷ Θεῷ, Hebrews 10:1, 22 (in the O. T. προσέρχεσθαι, simply, is used of the priests about to offer sacrifices, Leviticus 21:17, 21; Deuteronomy 21:5; with the addition of πρός Θεόν, of one about to ask counsel of God, 1 Samuel 14:36; with τοῖς θεοῖς, of suppliants about to implore the gods, Dio Cassius, 56, 9); πρός Χριστόν, to attach oneself to Christ, to come to a participation in the benefits procured by him, 1 Peter 2:4 (cf. Winer's Grammar, § 52, 3). β. equivalent to to assent to (cf. German beitreten (Latinaccedere; English come (over) to, used figuratively)): ὑγιαίνουσι λόγοις, 1 Timothy 6:3 (Tdf. προσέχεται, which see 3).

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

";crouching,"; ";cringing,"; hence ";a beggar,"; was always used in a bad sense until it was ennobled by the Gospels. It occurs in P Petr III. 36 (a) recto.17, .18 (Ptol.) along with its comparative, but unfortunately in a very broken context : see also ib. 140.1 (private accounts) πτώχωι ν ¯, γνάφει ο ¯. In Galatians 4:9 the translation ";beggarly"; is not very happy; the πτωχὰ στοιχεῖα are such that there is ";nothing in them";—no one is the better for them : see Westcott St. Paul and Justification, p. 81. MGr φτωχός, ";poor.";
