γέννημα

γέννημα — génnēma

γένημα, γενήματος, τό (from γίνομαι), a form supported by the best manuscripts in Mat 26:29; Mar 14:25; Luk 12:18; Luk 22:18; 2Co 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 Luk 12:18; 2Co 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 Mar 14:25 Lachmann has retained the common reading; (and in Luk 12:18 Tr text WH have σῖτον. In Eze 36:30 manuscripts A B read γενήματα).

STRONGS NT 1081: γέννημαγέννημα, γεννήματος, 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, Mat 3:7; Mat 12:34; Mat 23:33; Luk 3:7; (γυναικῶν, Sir 10:18).

b. from Polybius (1, 71, 1 etc.) on (cf. Winers Grammar, 23), the fruits of the earth, products of agriculture (in the Sept. often γεννήματα τῆς γῆς): Luk 12:18 (where Tr (txt. WH) τόν σῖτον); τῆς ἀμπέλου, Mat 26:29; Mar 14:25; Luk 22:18; cf. Lob. ad Phryn., p. 286. Metaphorically, fruit, reward, profit: τῆς δικαιοσύνης, 2Co 9:10 (Hos 10:12; τῆς σοφίας, Sir 1:17 Sir 6:19).
