Hebrews 12:20

That which was commanded [τ ο δ ι α σ τ ε λ λ ο μ ε ν ο ν]. See on Mark 7:36; Acts 14:24.

Touch [θ ι γ η]. Elsewhere in N. T. only ch. 11 28 and Colossians 2:21. LXX only Exodus 19:12. It implies a touching or grasping which affects the object (comp. ver. 18 on yhlafan). In Class. often of touching or handling some sacred object which may be desecrated by the one who lays hands on it. See Soph. Philoct. 667; Oed. Tyr. 891, 899. So here, the touch of the mountain was profanation.

Shall be stoned [λ ι θ ο β ο λ η σ ε τ α ι]. Found in Matthew, Luke, and Acts. In LXX see Exodus 19:13. Comp. ejliqasqhsan, ch. 11 37. The correct text omits or thrust through with a dart.
