Rom 12:19, "belongeth unto Me," RV; (b) a phrase consisting of the neuter plural of the definite article, either with the preposition pros, "unto," as in Luk 19:42, where the phrase "the things which belong unto peace" (RV) is, lit., "the (things) unto peace," or with the genitive case of the noun, as in 1Co 7:32, AV, "the things that belong to the Lord," RV, suitably, "the things of the Lord;" (c) a distinct verb, e.g., metecho, "to partake of, share in," Heb 7:13 RV, "belongeth to (another tribe)," AV, "pertaineth to."
