Your belief vs your neighbors unbelief

Interesting that you would take that position since in my first post on that topic I cited Thayer and exactly quoted his words.
Yet you claim I did neither.

I did NOT make any such claim, seth.
That's why CARM rules require you to provide a LINKED QUOTE in addressing what others say, so that you can't falsely misrepresent them as you just did to me.

What I ACTUALLY said was that your quote of Thayer was NOT referring to John 1:12. And I've explained this a number of times already, so anyone who is actually INTERESTED in the truth can plainly understand it.

Thayer NEVER said "lambano" in John 1:12 allegedly means, "lay hold of". He says it has that meaning in OTHER passages, such as:
"taking bread":
"taking fish";
"taking flour";
"taking a sword";
"taking a mustard seed",
referring to something PHYSICAL, but not in John 1:12.

Seriously, it's not a difficult concept to understand.

And what did Thayer say lambano means in John 1:12?

You don't know?
He's YOUR source, and YOU don't know what he said?!

Sorry, seth, I don't work for you. I don't do your job for you.
If you want to make an argument about what Thayer allegedly said regarding John 1:12, YOU need to make the argument, not me.

Yes he is the source I use, and apparently you do as well until you don't like what he says

No, I have always consistently used BDAG. I only commented on Thayer because of your mususe of it, which you still refuse to acknowledge.

Can you link your post where you quoted Thayer as in the page number in the lexicon, the word, the online link etc.........
