And on some (kai ouv men). Demonstrative plural of ov men—ov de (ouv de, below), not the relative ouv, but by contrast (men, de). So Matthew 13:8.
Have mercy (eleate). Present active imperative of eleaw (rare form in Romans 9:16 also for the usual eleew Matthew 9:27). But A C read elegxete, refute, in place of eleate. The text of this verse is in much confusion.
Who are in doubt (diakrinomenouv). Present middle participle of diakrinw, in the accusative case agreeing with ouv men, though K L P have the nominative. If the accusative and eleate is read, see James 1:6 for the idea (doubters). If elegxete is read, see Judges 1:9 for the idea (disputers).
