G0248–ἀλοάω–aloaō

For it says in the law of Moses, It is not right to keep the ox from taking the grain when he is crushing it. Is it for the oxen that God is giving orders?

ἀλοῶντα. aloōnta “treading out grain.”

Or has he us in mind? Yes, it was said for us; because it is right for the ploughman to do his ploughing in hope, and for him who is crushing the grain to do his work hoping for a part in the fruits of it.

ἀλοῶν aloōn “threshing”

For the Writings say, It is not right to keep the ox from taking the grain when he is crushing it. And, The worker has a right to his reward.

ἀλοῶντα aloōnta “treading out grain”
