    προέχω aor. ptc. προσχών TestSol (Hom. et al.; pap; Job 27:6 v.l. [s. Swete], προσέχων in text; En; TestSol 5:3; Just., D. 2, 6; Tat.; Ath. 7, 2)
    ① to be in a prominent position, jut out, excel, be first (Jos., C. Ap. 2, 186) w. gen. of the thing that is exceeded (Memnon [I B.C. / I A.D.]: 434 Fgm. 1, 34, 7 Jac.; Cebes 34, 1; Dio Chrys. 44 [61], 11; Ael. Aristid. 30 p. 581 D.; EpArist 235; Tat. 15, 3; T. Kellis 22, 28f; w. acc. Ath. 7, 2) πάντων προέχουσα ἐπιθυμία above all there is (the) desire Hm 12, 2, 1.—Much is to be said for taking προεχόμεθα Ro 3:9 as a pass., meaning are we excelled? i.e. are we in a worse position (than they)? or have we lost our advantage? (s. Field, Notes 152f; Goodsp.; NRSV mg.; cp. Plut., Mor. 1038d οὐθὲν πρ. ὑπὸ τοῦ Διός of the philosopher whose majesty is not excelled by that of Zeus. A link with vs. 1 is suggested by the v.l. προκατέχομεν περρισόν; s. προκατέχω; FDanker, Gingrich Festschr. 100f). S. 2.
    ② In Ro 3:9, which is text-critically uncertain (s. 1), the mid. either has the same mng. as the act. (the act. is so used in X., Cyr. 2, 1, 16; Jos., Ant. 7, 237) have an advantage (Vulgate)—a mng. not found elsewh. for the mid.—or its customary sense hold someth. before oneself for protection (so also En 99:3). In that case, if the ‘we’ in προεχόμεθα refers to Judeans, the οὐ πάντως that follows vigorously rejects the idea that they possess anything that might shield them fr. God’s wrath. But if the ‘we’ in 9a must of necessity be the same as in 9b, i.e. Paul himself, he is still dealing w. the opponents whom he has in mind in vss. 7, 8, and he asks ironically: am I protecting myself? am I making excuses? He is able to answer this question w. a flat no, since his explanation in vs. 9b is no less clear and decisive than his earlier statements (for προέχεσθαι=‘put up as a defense’ cp. Soph., Ant. 80; Thu. 1, 140, 4).—M-M. TW.
