21 βασιλεία
βασιλεία, ας, ἡ (Heraclit. Fgm. 52; Hdt.+) a term relating to royal administrationⓐ gener. kingship, royal power, royal rule (1 Km 15:28; 20:31; Sir 10:8; Jdth 1:1; Esth 3:6; 1 Macc 1:16 al. LXX; En 98:2; TestJob 33:9; Just., Tat., Ath.; οὐ βασιλείαν ἀλλὰ τυράνιδα Mel., P. 49, 354; Orig.) λαβεῖν ἑαυτῷ βασιλείαν obtain royal power (for oneself) Lk 19:12, 15; without dat. Rv 17:12 (cp. Jos., Ant. 13, 220); δοῦναί τινι τὴν β. vs. 17; ἔχειν β. ἐπί τινων vs. 18; ἐποίησεν ἡμᾶς βασιλείαν he gave us royal jurisdiction 1:6; cp. 5:10; royal rule Lk 1:33; 22:29; 23:42 v.l. (ἐν τῇ β. σου in your royal power); Ac 1:6; Hb 1:8 (Ps 44:7); 1 Cor 15:24 (παραδιδόναι as Diod S 1, 43, 6); B 4:4 (Da 7:24). Ps 95:10 (Justin, A I, 41, 4, D. 73: ὁ κύριος ἐβασίλευσεν ἀπὸ τ. ξύλου) is the basis for β. Ἰησοῦ ἐπὶ ξύλου the rule of Jesus on the cross B 8:5 (s. Windisch, Hdb. ad loc.).—Hb 11:33; 1 Cl 61:1.ⓑ esp. of God’s rule the royal reign of God (usually rendered ‘kingdom of God’, and oft. understood as royal realm but with dilution of the primary component of reigning activity), a chiefly eschatological concept, beginning to appear in the prophets, elaborated in apocalyptic passages (Mi 4:7f; Ps 102:19; 144:11–13; Wsd 6:4; 10:10; Da 3:54; 4:3; cp. SibOr 3:47f.—Diod S 5, 71, 1 Zeus takes over the βασιλεία from Cronus; Sextus 311 κοινωνεῖ βασιλείας θεοῦ σοφὸς ἀνήρ) and taught by Jesus. The expressions vary; β. τοῦ θεοῦ and τῶν οὐρανῶν have essentially the same mng., since Israelites used οὐρανός (-οί) as well as other circumlocutions for θεός (cp. Mt 19:23f; s. Bousset, Rel.3 314f); the latter term may also emphasize the heavenly origin and nature of the reign.—Dalman, Worte 75–119; JWeiss, D. Predigt Jesu v. Reiche Gottes2 1900, 1–35; ESellin, D. isr.-jüd.

Degrees and grades 5:19; 18:1, 4. The prosperous have difficulty entering 19:23f; Mk 10:23–25; Lk 18:24f (cp. vs. 29), those who persist in sin have no prospects at all Mt 13:24ff, 36ff, 47ff.—Paul thinks of the β. as someth. that effects changes in pers. resulting in righteousness, peace (w. God) and joy Ro 14:17. It manifests itself in deeds, not in words 1 Cor 4:20. Those committed to sin will not inherit it 6:9f; Gal 5:21; Eph 5:5 (cp. 2 Cl 9:6); the latter passages show that for Paul the kgdm. is essentially future, since Christians await the complete victory of the spirit over the flesh. Cp. also 2 Ti 4:1. Flesh and blood will not inherit it, i.e. bodies under the direction of the spirit of Christ are required for entrance 1 Cor 15:50 (JJeremias, NTS 2, ’56, 151–59).

28 one's pound of flesh
законное, но жёсткое требование (уплаты, возврата) [шекспировское выражение: см. цитату]Shylock: "...So do I answer you; The pound of flesh which I demand of him Is dearly bought, 'tis mine, and I will have it... " (W. Shakespeare, ‘The Merchant of Venice’, act IV, sc. I) — Шейлок: "...Так я отвечу: дорого купил Фунт мяса я, которого хочу, Он - мой, и я иметь его желаю!" (перевод И. Мандельштама)
‘We're going to have our pound of flesh,’ cried Tom. ‘We insist on complete reinstatement. Payment in full for the period of deprivation.’ (C. P. Snow, ‘The Affair’, ch. 40) — - То, что нам причитается, мы получим, - кричал Том. - Мы настаиваем на полном восстановлении Говарда в правах. Оплата полностью за все то время, что он был отстранен от работы.
...he telephoned Dr. Ivory and said that the Ministry were trying to cheat on his pay. Could he do something about it? Dr. Ivory thought it funny. ‘For a man as rich as you are, you certainly want your bloody pound of flesh, don't you?’ he said to Rupert. (J. Aldridge, ‘A Captive in the Land’, ch. XV) —...Руперт позвонил доктору Айвори и пожаловался, что его хотят обжулить и платить только половину оклада. Не может ли доктор это уладить? Подобная просьба со стороны Руперта показалась Айвори несерьезной. - Такой богатый человек, как вы, и требуете эти несчастные гроши? - сказал он Руперту.
‘We have other evidence, a great deal of evidence,’ said Todd, ‘Indicating conclusively a long and somewhat cordial relationship between yourself and Miss Seigner...’ ‘Well, now that you've extracted your own pound of flesh,’ the General said, ‘I think I'll say good night’. (F. Knebel and Ch. Bailey, ‘Seven Days in May’, ‘Friday 11 P. M.’) — - У нас есть еще немало доказательств, безошибочно указывающих на длительные и, я бы сказал, сердечные отношения между вами и мисс Сеньер... - Ну что ж, - сказал генерал, - теперь, когда и вы урвали свое, я полагаю, что могу пожелать вам спокойной ночи.
