I linked an academic essay on mellō in the comment section of your early posts in this series. That essay offers a rigorous explication of mellō. But it looks like you haven't used it yet. Am I missing something? Have you used it in this series?

You should consider adding a post about that as the final, irreversible nail in the mellō coffin. It's difficult for serious biblical scholars to argue with that essay. It's not fudging anything; it's laying out the evidence for serious scholars.

It's just a thought, though, because I really do wonder if these fantastic posts of yours really do put the final nail in the coffin of rigorous explication.
