Romans 13:12

Is far spent [π ρ ο ε κ ο ψ ε ν]. The A. V. gives a variety of renderings to this verb. Luke 2:52, increased; Galatians 1:14, profited; 2 Timothy 3:9, proceed; 13, wax. The word originally means to beat forward or lengthen out by hammering. Hence to promote, and intransitively to go forward or proceed.

Let us cast off [α π ο θ ω μ ε θ α]. As one puts off the garments of the night. For this use of the simple tiqhmi, see on giveth his life, John 10:11.
