APPENDIX B 3

Chapter 13:5. let your conversation, etc. It is rendered by Macknight "behavior;" and by Stuart "conduct." But tro>pov; means not only way, manner, conduct, but also a turn as it were of the mind, disposition, ingenium, as given by Schleusner. Parkhurst quotes a passage from Demosthenes, in which it evidently bears this sense. This version may then be given, "Let there be no moneyloving disposition;" or, "Let your disposition be free from the love of money." The Syr. is, "Let not your heart love money." The Vulg. gives a loose version, "Let the conduct be without avarice." Beza's is nearly the same. "Be content," or "be satisfied, with what you have;" that is, deem what you have sufficient or enough.
