I have a question about the verse in 2 Cor. 12:7, regarding the combination of two conjunctions, DIO and hINA, which seems to be unique in the NT.
Does any one know any other place in the classical or Byzantine texts with the same DIO + hINA combination? The Apostolic Fathers, Philo, Josephus or LXX have none.
2 Corinthians 12:7 διὸ ἵνα μὴ ὑπεραίρωμαι, ἐδόθη μοι σκόλοψ τῇ σαρκί, ἄγγελος σατανᾶ, ἵνα με κολαφίζῃ, ἵνα μὴ ὑπεραίρωμαι.
2 Cor. 12:7 DIO hINA ME hUPERAIRWMAI EDOQH MOI SKOLOY TH SARKI AGGELOS SATANA hINA ME KOLAFIZE hINA ME UPERAIRWMAI.
