John 16:2

ἀποσυναγώγους ποιήσουσιν ὑμᾶς. For the word ἀποσυν. see John 9:22; John 12:42; “they will put you out of their synagogues,” they will make you outcasts from their synagogues. ἀλλʼ, “yea,” or “yea more”; used in this sense Romans 7:7; 2 Corinthians 7:11, where it occurs six times. Cf. Acts 19:2. ἔρχεται … Θεῷ. ἔρχεται ὥρα ἵνα, cf. John 12:23, ἐλήλυθεν ἡ ὥρα ἵνα … ἵνα … and Burton, Moods and Tenses, 216, on the complementary limitation by ἵνα of nouns signifying set time, etc. And for πᾶς ὁ ἀποκτείνας, the aorist indicating those “who once do the act the single doing of which is the mark of the class,” see Burton, 124, cf. 148. δόξῃ λατρείαν προσφέρειν, “may think that he offers sacrificial service”. λατρεία is used in Exodus 12:25, etc., of the Passover; apparently used in a more general sense in 1Ma 2:19; 1Ma 2:22; and defined by Suicer “quicquid fit in honorem et cultum Dei,” and by Theophylact as θεάρεστον ἔργον, a work well pleasing to God. Cf. Romans 12:1. Meyer and others quote the maxim of Jewish fanaticism, “Omnis effundens sanguinem improborum aequalis est illi qui sacrificium facit”.
