apecho denotes "to have in full, to have received" (apo, "from," and echo), Matt_6:2,5,16, RV, "have received," for AV, "have;" Luke_6:24, AV and RV, "have received," but Php_4:18, "I have;" Php_1:15, "(that) thou shouldest have (him)" (AV, "receive"). Deissmann, in Light from the Ancient East, and Moulton and Milligan (Vocab. of Gk. Test.) show that the verb was constantly used "as a technical expression in drawing up a receipt. Consequently in the Sermon on the Mount we are led to understand 'they have received their reward' as 'they have signed the receipt of their reward: their right to receive their reward is realized, precisely as if they had already given a receipt for it.'"

Is there not a hint of this in Paul's word to Philemon concerning receiving Onesimus (Php_1:17)? Philemon would give the Apostle a receipt for his payment in sending him. This is in keeping with the metaphorical terms of finance in Php_1:18,19. See ABSTAIN.

Notes:
(1) In John_5:4 (in those mss. which contain the passage), katecho, "to hold fast," is used in the Passive Voice, in the phrase "whatsoever disease he had," lit., "(by whatsoever disease) he was held."
(2) In Mark_12:22, in some mss., lambano, "to take" or "receive," is translated "had," in the statement "the seven had her;" in Acts_25:16, RV, "have had" (AV, "have"); in Heb_11:36, "had."
(3) In Matt_27:19, "Have thou nothing to do with that righteous man" translates what is lit. "nothing to thee and that righteous man," the verb being omitted. Similarly with the phrase, "What have I to do with thee?" lit., "what (is) to me and thee?" Mark_5:7; Luke_8:28; John_2:4, where Westcott translates it "What is there to Me and to thee?;" Ellicott, "What is that to Me and to thee," i.e., "What is My concern and thine in the matter?" There is certainly nothing disparaging in the question. On the contrary, it answers what must have been the thought in Mary's heart, and suggests that while there is no obligation either on Him or her, yet the need is a case for rendering help. For the construction with the plural pronoun see Matt_8:29; Mark_1:24; Luke_4:34.
(4) In Heb_4:13, "with whom we have to do" is, lit., "with whom (is) the account (logos) to us."
(5) In Heb_13:5, "such things as ye have" is, lit., "the (things) present."
(6) In Mark_5:26, "all that she had" is, lit., "all the (things) with her."
(7) For Luke_15:31, AV, "all that I have," lit., "all my (things)," see RV.
(8) For eneimi, Luke_11:41, "ye have," see WITHIN.
