Or "possess your souls." In the first sense, that of the text, it is the same thought as Matt. 24.13; Luke 17.33; Matt. 16.25; Luke 9.24, etc.. see Mark 13.13. For the second, the Greek certainly means "possess," as "owners," Acts 4.34. See 1 Thess. 4.4, which evidently does not mean "obtain a wife," as alleged. There is the idea in the word of "having by getting." see Matt. 10.9; Luke 18.12. The idea is, "they would have Messiah's deliverance," and it is so worded as to allow that it would be a better deliverance to the killed, though some would win life here below.

Some Edd. read "gain." Others adopt "ye shall gain." A reading at least questionable.
