I take back the last comment! The centurion is said to “hypo exousian tassomenos.” Lit. under authority set. (Too many “tassos” to keep track of, sorry about that) But this means he is the one who has the authority, for the text can also be read “with authority set.” In Eph 1, however, the enemies are said to have been submitted (hypotasso) under (hypo) the feet of Christ, wherefore Gengwall is correct in that hypotasso, and hypo, can have different meanings depending on the context.

BTW, Mark, I understood your comment on wellgrounded egals. There are lot of people who think they have it all together, but don’t. I’m glad you are here.
