Yesterday I noted a spike in word count in 1-2 Corinthians. Here as well. Both of these posts need to be investigated in context. I am just recognizing repeated words as I read devotionally this week.

I have been reading 1-2 Corinthians for noon devotions the last few days. I noticed how often Paul uses and ἔχω cognates. No doubt the uses are diverse but makes sense that a word in the semantic range of Possession and Ownership would be of use to Paul here. The chart below is from Logos, ἔχω as root in Pauline Epistles.
