άφήσουσιν fut. ind. act. от άφίημι (G17) покидать. Сообщают, что когда Тит въезжал в прекрасный Иерусалим утром 26 сентября поcле разрушения городских стен, он сказал: "Бог воистину был на нашей стороне в этой войне. Именно Бог изгнал иудеев из этой крепости, потому что разве совладали бы руки человеческие или машины с этими башнями?" (Jos., JW, 6:411; TJ, 201).
έπισκοπή (G1984) посещение, посещение божественной силы, в основном в положительном значении (BAGD).
