STRONGS G1081:
γέννημα,
-τος,
τό, (from
γεννάω),
that which has been begotten or
born;
a. as in the earlier Greek writings from Sophocles down,
the offspring, progeny, of men or of animals:
ἐχιδνῶν,
Matthew 3:7;
Matthew 12:34;
Matthew 23:33;
Luke 3:7; (
γυναικῶν, Sir. 10:18).
b. from Polybius [1, 71, 1 etc.] on [cf. Winer's Grammer 23],
the fruits of the earth, products of agriculture, (in Sept. often
γεννήματα τῆς γῆς):
Luke 12:18 (where Tr [text WH]
τὸν σῖτον);
τῆς ἀμπέλου,
Matthew 26:29;
Mark 14:25;
Luke 22:18; cf.
Lob ad Phryn. p. 286. Metaphorically
fruit, reward, profit: τῆς δικαιοσύνης,
2 Corinthians 9:10, (
Hosea 10:12;
τῆς σοφίας, Sir. 1:17; 6:19). Further, see
γένημα.
Related entry:
γένημα,
-ατος,
τό, (from
γίνομαι), a form supported by the best manuscripts in
Matthew 26:29;
Mark 14:25;
Luke 12:18;
Luke 22:18;
2 Corinthians 9:10, and therefore adopted by T [see his Proleg., p. 79] Tr [L WH (see
WH's Appendix, p. 148 and below)], printed by Griesbach only in
Luke 12:18;
2 Corinthians 9:10, but given by no grammarian, and therefore attributed by Fritzsche (on Mark, p. 619f) to the carelessness of transcribers, — for
Rec. [but in Luke, the passage cited
Rst reads
γενημ.]
γέννημα, which see. In
Mark 14:25 Lachmann has retained the common reading; [and in
Luke 12:18 Tr text WH have
σῖτον. In
Ezekiel 36:30 manuscripts A B read
γενήματα].
