In Second Corinthians 4:4
EN hOIS hO QEOS TOU AIWNOS TOUTOU
ETUFLWSE TA NOHMATA TWN APISTWN, <snip>
Can someone help me with the definite
article here with QEOS. The only previous
mention seems to be God Himself. Why use
the definite article? It would seem like
this would be the perfect construction
for the anarthrous construct.
Why give the being responsible for blinding
the minds the title "the God" or "the god?"
