[instructor]
a guide, or guardian or trainer of boys, lit., a child-leader (pais,
a boy, or child, agoµ, to lead), a tutor, is translated "instructors"
in 1 Cor. 4:15, A.V. (R.V., "tutors"); here the thought is that of pastors
rather than teachers; in Gal. 3:24, 25, A.V., "schoolmaster" (R.V.,
"tutor,"), but here the idea of instruction is absent. "In this and allied
words the idea is that of training, discipline, not of impartation of
knowledge. The paidagoµgos was not the instructor of the child; he
exercised a general supervision over him and was responsible for his moral
and physical well-being. Thus understood, paidagoµgos is
appropriately used with 'kept in ward' and 'shut up,' whereas to understand
it as equivalent to 'teacher' introduces an idea entirely foreign to the
passage, and throws the Apostle's argument into confusion."*¶ Cp.
epitropos, a steward, guardian, tutor.
1 Corinthians
1 Corinthians 4:15 For though you might
have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you do not
have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the
gospel.
Galatians
Galatians 3:24 Therefore the law was our
tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by
faith.
Galatians 3:25 But after faith has come,
we are no longer under a tutor.
paidavrion
3808 --
another diminutive
of pais, is used of boys and girls, in Matt. 11:16 (the best texts
have paidiois here), and a lad, John 6:9; the tendency in colloquial
Greek was to lose the diminutive character of the word.
Matthew
Matthew 11:16 “But to what
shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the
marketplaces and calling to their companions,
John
John 6:9 “There is a lad
here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among
so many?”

-- [instruction - noun] training, instruction, is translated
"instruction" in 2 Tim. 3:16. See Chasten.
Ephesians
Ephesians 6:4 And you,
fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the
training and admonition of the Lord.
2 Timothy
2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture
is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness,
Hebrews
Hebrews 12:5-11 And you have
forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: “My son, do not
despise the chastening of the
Lord, Nor be discouraged when
you are rebuked by Him; 6For whom the
Lord loves He chastens, And
scourges every son whom He receives.” 7 If you endure
chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom
a father does not chasten? 8 But if you are without chastening,
of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.
9 Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we
paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the
Father of spirits and live? 10 For they indeed for a few days
chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be
partakers of His holiness. 11 Now no chastening seems to
be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields
the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

[instruct - verb]
to train children, teach, is rendered "was instructed," in Acts 7:22, R.V. (A.V.,
"learned"); "instructing" in 2 Tim. 2:25, A.V. (R.V., "correcting"); Tit.
2:12, R.V., "instructing" (A.V., "teaching"). The verb is used of the family
discipline, as in Heb. 12:6, 7, 10; cp. 1 Cor. 11:32; 2 Cor. 6:9; Rev. 3:19.
In 1 Tim. 1:20 (Passive Voice) it is translated "might be taught," R.V. (A.V.,
"may learn"), but, "however the passage is to be understood, it is clear
that not the impartation of knowledge but severe discipline is intended. In
Luke 23:16, 22, Pilate, since he had declared the Lord guiltless of the
charge brought against Him, and hence could not punish Him, weakly offered,
as a concession to the Jews, to 'chastise, paideuoµ, Him, and let Him
go.' "*
This sense of paideuoµ
is confirmed by Heb. 12:6, where it is joined (in a quotation from the Sept.
of Prov. 3:12) with to lash or scourge. Cp. the scene in the Pilgrim's
Progress where a shining one with a whip of small cords "chastised sore"
the pilgrims foolishly caught in the net of the flatterer and said to them,
"As many as I love I rebuke and chasten" (paideuoµ). See Correct,
Teach.
Luke
Luke 23:16 I will therefore
chastise Him and release Him”
Luke 23:22 Then he said to
them the third time, “Why, what evil has He done? I have found no reason for
death in Him. I will therefore chastise Him and let Him go.”
Acts

learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and
deeds.

born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of
Gamaliel, taught according to the strictness of our fathers’ law, and

Hebrews 12:6-10 For whom the
Lord loves He chastens,
And scourges every son whom He receives.” 7 If you endure
chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a

chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate
and not sons. 9 Furthermore, we have had human fathers who
