This morning I preached on Revelation 2 - the letters to Pergamum and Thyatira. In the letter to Pergamum, we are told that Antipas is o` ma,rtuj mou o` pisto,j mou
so I was intrigued to look up ma,rtuj in BDAG and read there references to articles or books which explain how ma,rtuj =witness became martyr in Latin and English.
Does anyone know a way of sourcing the articles, etc referred to in in BDAG via the internet?
Like is a bit tough for us geezers who live miles from a theological library.
[I told the folk this morning I think I would have liked Pergamum, with its library of 250,000 books, though I don't know what the borrowing was like, or if there was any.]
