κανών in Scripture

2 Corinthians 10:13 But we will not boast of things without our measure, but according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us, a measure to reach even unto you. 2 Corinthians 10:15 Not boasting of things without our measure, that is, of other men’s labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly, 2 Corinthians 10:16 To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man' s line of things made ready to our hand. Galatians 6:16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. Philippians 3:16 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
