To the co-apostolic grand prince Volodymyr, in holy baptism, Basil:
Galatians I, 11. 17 – ‘εμου’ – ‘emou’ – (by)
‘me’.
Galatians I, 13 – ‘εμην’ – ‘emen’ – ‘my’ (life).
Galatians I, 15 – κοιλιας – koilias – belly, every organ within the
belly, the womb
.
Galatians I, 16 – ‘εμοι’ – ‘emoi’ – ‘to me’.
The story of Paul’s conversion, including important details about his first steps as a Christian. Saint Prince Volodymyr is often compared to the Apostle Paul, since Volodymyr was not a model of virtue before he accepted Christ, but he changed with His acceptance. And the universal baptism of the Rus’ was of great importance for the spread of the faith and the development of the state.
I will add the following (which I wrote about earlier, see the link below).
Paul emphasises that the apostleship does not come from people but
from God; no one can bring an entire nation to Christ by human will,
even by the will of whole nations, as the apostles did, and therefore
the calling to the apostleship is exclusively and only from God.
John X, 4 – ‘εμπροσθεν’ – ‘emprosthen’ – ‘before, in front of the face’.
John X, 7, 9 – ‘ειμι’ – ‘eimi’ – (I) ‘am’. It is used for emphasis.
John X, 8, 9 – ‘εμου’ – ‘emou’ – by Me, Me
.
