I am wondering if there is any significant difference in the words EPAGGELIA
and EPAGGELMA is these verses. The author of 2 Peter repeats a lot of
vocabulary in this section (I'm translating the RCL pericope for Sunday, 2
Peter 3:8-15a), and I'm curious why two different but clearly related words
are used rather than repeating EPAGGELIA.
Thanks and Blessings,
