Winer's Grammar, § 37, 5 Note 1): Jn 3:4; Rev 19:3; πάλιν is added, as often in Greek writers (see ἄνωθεν, at the end): Jn 21:16; also τό δεύτερον, 2 Cor 13:2; Jude 1:5; ἐκ δευτέρου (1 Macc. 9:1), Mk 14:72; Jn 9:24; Acts 11:9; Heb 9:28; cf. Winer's Grammar, § 51, 1d.; with πάλιν added, Mt 26:42; Acts 10:15 (Homer, Odyssey 3, 161 ἐπί δεύτερον ἀυτις); έ᾿ντω δευτέρῳ at the second time, Acts 7:13 (when they had come the second time); δεύτερον in a partition then, in the second place: 1 Cor 12:28.
