I have two questions on 1 Peter 4:14ff.

Verses 14-16:

EI ONEIDIZESQE EN ONOMATI CRISTOU, MAKARIOI, hOTI TO THS DOXHS KAI TO TOU
QEOU PNEUMA EF' hUMAS ANAPAUETAI.
MH YAR TIS hUMWN PASCETW hWS FONEUS H KLEPTHS H KAKOPOIOS H hWS
ALLOTRIEPISKOPOS;
EI DE hWS CRISTIANOS, MH AISCUNESQW, DOXAZETW DE TON QEON EN TW ONOMATI
TOUTW.

(1) This one is for Carl in particular. I have read some of your
discussions on the mid. and passive forms. Does ONEIDIZESQE have a
passive sense here, or could it be translated "If you allow yourselves to
be reviled"?

(2) I am interested in anyone's comments on EN ONOMATI CRISTOU (v. 14)
and EN TW ONOMATI TOUTW (v. 16). Does trying to categorize these datives
relate to the recent thread on scalars? Does it help us to stuff these
datives into "pigeon holes" (e.g. dat. of sphere, dat. of cause). I find
the last phrase EN TW ONOMATI TOUTW difficult to categorize (should I
even try?).

I always appreciate the good input you give!
Thanks,
