Motion
moshun: In 2 Esd 6:14, the King James Version motion represents the Latin commotio, commotion, disturbance (the Revised Version (British and American) has revised entirely here). In Rom 7:5, the motions of sins, which were by the law, motion is used in the sense of impulse, and impulses would probably give the best translation. But the Greek noun (, pathemata) is hard to translate exactly, and the Revised Version (British and American) has preferred passions, as in Gal 5:24. Sanday (International Critical Commentary) paraphrases the impressions of sense, suggestive of sin, stimulated into perverse activity by their legal prohibition. See PASSION. Motion is found also in Wisd 5:11 (the King James Version and the Revised Version margin) and 7:24 (the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American)) in a modern sense.
