τοιοῦτος

Matthew 9:8 τοιαύτην such

When the crowds saw this, they were filled with awe and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

Here: 'Authority of this kind.' It points back to the particular authority just shown: forgiving sins on earth and proving it with a healing.

Matthew 18:5 τοιοῦτο such

And whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me.

Here: "Of this sort." It points back to the child in front of them and to the humility of verse 4. That makes it possible to read "such a child" as covering both real children and disciples who have made themselves small (see debates).

Matthew 19:14 τοιούτων of such kind

But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Here: 'Such ones, people of this kind.' It reaches past these particular children to everyone who shares their status or character. In Matthew that is defined at 18:4 as those who humble themselves like a child.

Mark 4:33 τοιαύταις with such

With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.

Mark 6:2 τοιαῦται such

When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?

Here: 'Deeds like these!' Exclamatory: deeds of this kind, from him?

Mark 7:13 τοιαῦτα such

Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”

Here: Doubles the 'of this kind' idea. 'Similar such things' is emphatic and colloquial, and it tells the reader that the vow case is one example among many, not a rare exception.

Mark 9:37 τοιούτων of such

“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in My name welcomes Me, and whoever welcomes Me welcomes not only Me, but the One who sent Me.”

Here: 'Of this kind.' It points at the child in Jesus' arms and widens out from that one child to every child like it, and perhaps to everyone just as small and easy to overlook.

Mark 10:14 τοιούτων sof uch

But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and told them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Here: "Ones like these". It includes these children and also everyone of their kind. Verse 15 shows that it reaches adults who receive the kingdom the way a child does.

Mark 13:19 τοιαύτη [the] like

For those will be days of tribulation unseen from the beginning of God’s creation until now, and never to be seen again.

Here: Repeats the 'such as' already given by hoia: 'such as has not been the like.' This doubling copies a Hebrew way of speaking and recalls the prophetic models of the saying (see Daniel 12:1). WEB keeps it with 'the like.'

Luke 9:9 τοιαῦτα; such things?

“I beheaded John,” Herod said, “but who is this man I hear such things about?” And he kept trying to see Jesus.

Luke 18:16 τοιούτων of such

But Jesus called the children to Him and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Here: 'Of such ones', 'of people like these'. It covers these children and everyone who is like them. It is not limited to children.

John 4:23 τοιούτους such

But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.

Here: 'Such people, of this kind': it describes what kind of worshipers the Father wants, namely those who worship in spirit and truth.

John 9:16 τοιαῦτα such

Because of this, some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was division among them.

Here: "Signs like these": the healing of a man born blind, which was unheard of (v.32), and probably the earlier signs too.

Acts 16:24 τοιαύτην such

On receiving this order, he placed them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks.

Here: 'An order like that.' It stresses what kind of order it was, a strict one about security, and so explains why the jailer went to such lengths.

Acts 19:25 τοιαῦτα things

Demetrius assembled the craftsmen, along with the workmen in related trades. “Men,” he said, “you know that this business is our source of prosperity.

Acts 22:22 τοιοῦτον· [with] such;

The crowd listened to Paul until he made this statement. Then they lifted up their voices and shouted, “Rid the earth of him! He is not fit to live!”

Here: 'A man like that.' It is contemptuous. The crowd does not even name him but treats him as a type, the kind of person who does such things. KJV's 'such a fellow' catches the tone.

Acts 26:29 τοιούτους such

“Short time or long,” Paul replied, “I wish to God that not only you but all who hear me this day may become what I am, except for these chains.”

Here: 'Such people', people of this sort. It is plural because it covers all the hearers.

Romans 1:32 τοιαῦτα things

Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things are worthy of death, they not only continue to do these things, but also approve of those who practice them.

Here: Points back over the whole catalogue: the idolatry and sexual exchange of 1:23–27 and the vices of 1:29–31 (envy, murder, deceit, gossip, slander, arrogance, disobedience to parents, mercilessness). 'Of this kind' makes it a category, not one item.

Romans 2:2 τοιαῦτα such things

And we know that God’s judgment against those who do such things is based on truth.

Here: Points back to the list of vices in 1:29–31, and repeats 1:32 word for word ('those who practise such things'). It covers that whole category of behaviour, not only the exact items listed.

Romans 2:3 τοιαῦτα such things

So when you, O man, pass judgment on others, yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment?

Here: Points back to the list of vices in 1:29–31 and to the identical phrase in 1:32 and 2:2. "Things like that": the whole catalogue, not one sin.

Romans 16:18 τοιοῦτοι such

For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.

Here: 'People of that sort.' Paul describes a type and does not name anyone. That makes the warning work whoever turns up.

1 Corinthians 5:1 τοιαύτη such

It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is intolerable even among pagans: A man has his father’s wife.

Here: "Such a kind of": it points ahead to the description of what the sin is.

1 Corinthians 5:5 τοιοῦτον such a one

hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the Day of the Lord.

Here: Points back to the man who "has his father's wife" (v. 1) without naming him. The phrasing keeps the focus on what he did.

1 Corinthians 5:11 τοιούτῳ with such a one

But now I am writing you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a verbal abuser, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.

Here: 'The person of that kind.' The same word describes the incestuous man in 5:5 ('hand such a one over'), which ties the general rule to the case in hand. The grammatical masculine is generic.

1 Corinthians 7:15 τοιούτοις· such [cases];

But if the unbeliever leaves, let him go. The believing brother or sister is not bound in such cases. God has called you to live in peace.

Here: Most likely neuter, "in such cases", meaning when an unbelieving spouse leaves. The ending could also be masculine ("with such people"), but the sense stays nearly the same.

1 Corinthians 7:28 τοιοῦτοι· such;

But if you do marry, you have not sinned. And if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this.

1 Corinthians 11:16 τοιαύτην such

If anyone is inclined to dispute this, we have no other practice, nor do the churches of God.

1 Corinthians 15:48 τοιοῦτοι τοιοῦτοι so

As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.

1 Corinthians 16:16 τοιούτοις to such as these

to submit to such as these, and to every fellow worker and laborer.

Here: 'People like these.' It points to a kind of person, defined by the self-giving service just described, not to an office or title. The masculine plural is generic and covers the whole household, not only adult men.

1 Corinthians 16:18 τοιούτους.¶ such as these.

For they refreshed my spirit and yours as well. Show your appreciation, therefore, to such men.

Here: "Such people." The word is masculine plural, but Greek uses that form for mixed groups too. Paul names three men, yet the command reaches past them to everyone of this kind, the people who devote themselves to serving the church (vv.15–16). It repeats the "such" of v.16.

2 Corinthians 2:6 τοιούτῳ to such a one

The punishment imposed on him by the majority is sufficient for him.

2 Corinthians 2:7 τοιοῦτος. such a one.

So instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

Here: Paul does not name the offender, here or in verse 6. He refers to him without exposing him further, which is itself an act of restraint and protection.

2 Corinthians 3:4 τοιαύτην such

Such confidence before God is ours through Christ.

Here: Points back to vv.1–3: the confidence that the Corinthians themselves, changed by the Spirit, are Paul's letter of recommendation. It may also look ahead to vv.5–6, which explain where that confidence comes from.

2 Corinthians 3:12 τοιαύτην such

Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold.

Here: Points back to what was just described. The hope is defined by verses 7–11: it rests on a glory that "remains" (v. 11) and does not fade. Paul is not talking about hope in general.

2 Corinthians 10:11 τοιοῦτος τοιοῦτοι type of [person], such [we are]

Such people should consider that what we are in our letters when absent, we will be in our actions when present.

2 Corinthians 11:13 τοιοῦτοι such [are]

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ.

Here: "Such people." Paul names no one; the slightly contemptuous "people like that" keeps them at arm's length, a common move in ancient argument.

2 Corinthians 12:2 τοιοῦτον such a man

I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows.

Here: 'This sort of person.' A distancing word that keeps the experience at arm's length. Paul will boast about 'such a one' but not about himself (v. 5).

2 Corinthians 12:3 τοιοῦτον such

And I know that this man—whether in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows—

2 Corinthians 12:5 τοιούτου such a man

I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.

Here: 'Such a one' picks up 'such a man' in vv. 2–3, the 'man in Christ' who was caught up to the third heaven and Paradise. Paul talks about him as though from the outside.

Galatians 5:21 τοιαῦτα things

and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Here: 'Things of this sort'. It describes a kind of conduct, which matches the open-ended 'and the like'.

Galatians 5:23 τοιούτων such

gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

Here: Refers back to the whole nine-part list, not just the last two items. The form can be neuter ('such things') or masculine ('such people'). The supplied parsing takes it as neuter, but Greek allows both (see debates).

Galatians 6:1 τοιοῦτον such a one

Brothers, if someone is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him with a spirit of gentleness. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted.

Here: 'Such a person', meaning the one just described. The wording keeps the focus on the person, not on naming the deed.

Ephesians 5:27 τοιούτων, such things,

and to present her to Himself as a glorious church, without stain or wrinkle or any such blemish, but holy and blameless.

Here: "Anything of that sort." It covers every kind of defect. The word itself does not mean "blemish"; translations add that.

Philippians 2:29 τοιούτους such

Welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor men like him,

Here: People like Epaphroditus: those who risk themselves for the work of Christ (2:30). The grammar is masculine plural, the Greek default for a mixed or general group, so it is not limited to men.

2 Thessalonians 3:12 τοιούτοις to such

We command and urge such people by our Lord Jesus Christ to begin working quietly to earn their own living.

Here: 'People of that sort.' It points back to the ones in v.11 who are 'working at nothing but working around'. They are described, not named. That spares them public naming while leaving no doubt who is meant.

Titus 3:11 τοιοῦτος such a man

knowing that such a man is corrupt and sinful; he is self-condemned.

Here: Points back to the "divisive person" of verse 10 who has ignored two warnings. Paul describes a type of person, not one named individual.

Philemon 1:9 τοιοῦτος such a one

I prefer to appeal on the basis of love. For I, Paul, am now aged, and a prisoner of Christ Jesus as well.

Here: 'Being such a person as…' It introduces the self-description that follows: who Paul is as he makes this appeal.

Hebrews 7:26 Τοιοῦτος Such

Such a high priest truly befits us—One who is holy, innocent, undefiled, set apart from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.

Here: Stands first for emphasis. It points back to v.25 (the priest who lives forever to intercede) and forward to the list of qualities that follows: "this is the kind of high priest..."

Hebrews 8:1 τοιοῦτον such

The point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven,

Here: 'Such a one.' It points back to 7:26 ('such a high priest was fitting for us': holy, innocent, exalted above the heavens) and forward to the 'who' clause that follows. It is put first for emphasis: it is *this kind* of high priest that we have.

Hebrews 11:14 τοιαῦτα such things

Now those who say such things show that they are seeking a country of their own.

Hebrews 12:3 τοιαύτην such great

Consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

Here: Points back to the cross and its shame in verse 2: opposition 'of that sort', that severe. It describes the opposition, not Jesus.

Hebrews 13:16 τοιαύταις with such

And do not neglect to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.

Here: 'Offerings of this kind': it points back to doing good and sharing, and most likely also to the praise in verse 15.

James 4:16 τοιαύτη such

As it is, you boast in your proud intentions. All such boasting is evil.

Here: 'Of this kind.' This word sets the scope: James condemns boasting rooted in claims to control the future, not every expression of confidence or rejoicing.

3 John 1:8 τοιούτους such [men]

Therefore we ought to support such men, so that we may be fellow workers for the truth.

Here: 'People of this sort': travelling brothers who went out for the Name and accept nothing from outsiders. It sets a qualification, not a blanket rule to support anyone who turns up. The masculine plural is the ordinary Greek for a group and does not by itself say 'men'.
