1 ψυχή
ψυχή, ῆς, ἡ (Hom.+; ‘life, soul’) It is oft. impossible to draw hard and fast lines in the use of this multivalent word. Gen. it is used in ref. to dematerialized existence or being, but, apart fr. other data, the fact that ψ. is also a dog’s name suggests that the primary component is not metaphysical, s. SLonsdale, Greece and Rome 26, ’79, 146–59. Without ψ. a being, whether human or animal, consists merely of flesh and bones and without functioning capability. Speculations and views respecting the fortunes of ψ. and its relation to the body find varied expression in our lit.ⓐ (breath of) life, life-principle, soul, of animals (Galen, Protr. 13 p. 42, 27 John; Gen 9:4) Rv 8:9. As a rule of human beings (Gen 35:18; 3 Km 17:21; ApcEsdr 5:13 λαμβάνει τὴν ψυχὴν the fetus in its sixth month) Ac 20:10. When it leaves the body death occurs Lk 12:20 (cp. Jos., C. Ap. 1, 164; on the theme cp. Pind., I. 1, 67f). The soul is delivered up to death (the pass. in ref. to divine initiative), i.e. into a condition in which it no longer makes contact with the physical structure it inhabited 1 Cl 16:13 (Is 53:12), whereupon it leaves the realm of earth and lives on in Hades (Lucian, Dial. Mort. 17, 2; Jos., Ant. 6, 332) Ac 2:27 (Ps 15:10), 31 v.l. or some other place outside the earth Rv 6:9; 20:4; ApcPt 10:25 (GrBar 10:5 τὸ πεδίον … οὗπερ ἔρχονται αἱ ψυχαὶ τῶν δικαίων; ApcEsdr 7:3 ἀπέρχεται εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν; Himerius, Or. 8 [23]: his consecrated son [παῖς ἱερός 7] Rufinus, when he dies, leaves his σῶμα to the death-daemon, while his ψυχή goes into οὐρανός, to live w. the gods 23).—B 5:13 (s. Ps 21:21).ⓑ the condition of being alive, earthly life, life itself (Diod S 1, 25, 6 δοῦναι τὴν ψυχήν=give life back [to the dead Horus]; 3, 26, 2; 14, 65, 2; 16, 78, 5; Jos., Ant. 18, 358 σωτηρία τῆς ψυχῆς; 14, 67; s. Reader, Polemo 354 [reff.]) ζητεῖν τὴν ψυχήν τινος Mt 2:20 (cp. Ex 4:19); Ro 11:3 (3 Km 19:10, 14). δοῦναι τὴν ψυχὴν ἑαυτοῦ (cp. Eur., Phoen. 998) Mt 20:28; Mk 10:45; John says for this τιθέναι τὴν ψυχὴν J 10:11, 15, 17, (18); 13:37f; 15:13; 1J 3:16ab; παραδιδόναι Ac 15:26; Hs 9, 28, 2. παραβολεύεσθαι τῇ ψυχῇ Phil 2:30 (s. παραβολεύομαι). To love one’s own life (JosAs 13:1 ἐγὼ ἀγαπῶ αὐτὸν ὑπὲρ τὴν ψυχήν μου) Rv 12:11; cp. B 1:4; 4:6; 19:5; D 2:7. Life as prolonged by nourishment Mt 6:25ab; Lk 12:22f. Cp. 14:26; Ac 20:24; 27:10, 22; 28:19 v.l.; Ro 16:4. S. also 2e below.ⓒ by metonymy, that which possesses life/soul (cp. 3 below) ψυχὴ ζῶσα (s. Gen 1:24) a living creature Rv 16:3 v.l. for ζωῆς. Cp. ἐγένετο Ἀδὰμ εἰς ψυχὴν ζῶσαν 1 Cor 15:45 (Gen 2:7. S. πνεῦμα 5f). ψυχὴ ζωῆς Rv 16:3.② seat and center of the inner human life in its many and varied aspects, soulⓐ of the desire for luxurious living (cp. the OT expressions Ps 106:9 [=ParJer 9:20, but in sense of d below]; Pr 25:25; Is 29:8; 32:6; Bar 2:18b; PsSol 4:17. But also X., Cyr. 8, 7, 4; ins in CB I/2, 477 no. 343, 5 the soul as the seat of enjoyment of the good things in life) of the rich man ἐρῶ τῇ ψυχῇ μου• ψυχή, ἀναπαύου, φάγε, πίε, εὐφραίνου Lk 12:19 (cp. PsSol 5:12; Aelian, VH 1, 32 εὐφραίνειν τὴν ψυχήν; X., Cyr. 6, 2, 28 ἡ ψυχὴ ἀναπαύσεται.—The address to the ψυχή as PsSol 3, 1; Cyranides p. 41, 27). Cp. Rv 18:14.ⓑ of evil desires (PsSol 4:13; Tat. 23, 2) 2 Cl 16:2; 17:7.ⓒ of feelings and emotions (Anacr., Fgm. 4 Diehl2 [15 Page]; Diod S 8, 32, 3; JosAs 6:1; SibOr 3, 558; Just., D. 2, 4; Mel., P. 18, 124 al.) περίλυπός ἐστιν ἡ ψυχή μου (cp. Ps 41:6, 12; 42:5) Mt 26:38; Mk 14:34. ἡ ψυχή μου τετάρακται J 12:27; cp. Ac 2:43 (s. 3 below).—Lk 1:46; 2:35; J 10:24; Ac 14:2, 22; 15:24; Ro 2:9; 1 Th 2:8 (τὰς ἑαυτῶν ψυχάς our hearts full of love); Hb 12:3; 2 Pt 2:8; 1 Cl 16:12 (Is 53:11); 23:3 (scriptural quot. of unknown origin); B 3:1, 5b (s. on these two passages Is 58:3, 5, 10b); 19:3; Hm 4, 2, 2; 8:10; Hs 1:8; 7:4; D 3:9ab. ἐμεγαλύνθη ἡ ψυχή μου GJs 5:2; 19:2 (s. μεγαλύνω 1). αὔξειν τὴν ψυχὴν τοῦ Παύλου AcPl Ha 6, 10. It is also said of God in the anthropomorphic manner of expr. used by the OT ὁ ἀγαπητός μου εἰς ὸ̔ν εὐδόκησεν ἡ ψυχή μου Mt 12:18 (cp. Is 42:1); cp. Hb 10:38 (Hab 2:4).—One is to love God ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ ψυχῇ Mt 22:37; Lk 10:27. Also ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς (Dt 6:5; 10:12; 11:13) Mk 12:30, 33 v.l. (for ἰσχύος); Lk 10:27 v.l. (Epict. 2, 23, 42; 3, 22, 18; 4, 1, 131; M. Ant. 12, 29; Sextus 379.—X., Mem. 3, 11, 10 ὅλῃ τῇ ψυχῇ). ἐκ ψυχῆς from the heart, gladly (Jos., Ant. 17, 177.—The usual form is ἐκ τῆς ψυχῆς: X., An. 7, 7, 43, Apol. 18 al.; Theocr. 8, 35) Eph 6:6; Col 3:23; ἐκ ψυχῆς σου B 3:5a (Is 58:10a); 19:6. μιᾷ ψυχῇ with one mind (Dio Chrys. 19 [36], 30) Phil 1:27; cp. Ac 4:32 (on the combination w. καρδία s. that word 1bη and EpArist 17); 2 Cl 12:3 (s. 1 Ch 12:39b; Diog. L. 5, 20 ἐρωτηθεὶς τί ἐστι φίλος, ἔφη• μία ψυχὴ δύο σώμασιν ἐνοικοῦσα).ⓓ as the seat and center of life that transcends the earthly (Pla., Phd. 28, 80ab; Paus. 4, 32, 4 ἀθάνατός ἐστιν ἀνθρώπου ψ.; Just., A I, 44, 9 περὶ ἀθανασίας ψυχῆς; Ath. 27, 2 ἀθάνατος οὖσα. Opp. Tat. 13, 1, who argues the state of the ψ. before the final judgment and states that it is not immortal per se but experiences the fate of the body οὐκ ἔστιν ἀθάνατος). As such it can receive divine salvation σῴζου σὺ καὶ ἡ ψυχή σου be saved, you and your soul Agr 5 (Unknown Sayings 61–64). σῴζειν τὰς ψυχάς Js 1:21. ψυχὴν ἐκ θανάτου 5:20; cp. B 19:10; Hs 6, 1, 1 (on death of the ψ. s. Achilles Tat. 7, 5, 3 τέθνηκας θάνατον διπλοῦν, ψυχῆς κ. σώματος). σωτηρία ψυχῶν 1 Pt 1:9. περιποίησις ψυχῆς Hb 10:39. It can also be lost 2 Cl 15:1; B 20:1; Hs 9, 26, 3. Humans cannot injure it, but God can hand it over to destruction Mt 10:28ab; AcPl Ha 1, 4. ζημιωθῆναι τὴν ψυχήν (ζημιόω 1) Mt 16:26a; Mk 8:36 (FGrant, Introd. to NT Thought, ’50, 162); 2 Cl 6:2. There is nothing more precious than ψυχή in this sense Mt 16:26b; Mk 8:37. It stands in contrast to σῶμα, in so far as that is σάρξ (cp. Ar. 15, 7 οὐ κατὰ σάρκα … ἀλλὰ κατὰ ψυχήν; Tat. 15, 1 οὔτε … χωρὶς σώματος; Ath. 1, 4 τὰ σώματα καὶ τὰς ψυχάς; SIG 383, 42 [I B.C.]) Dg 6:1–9. The believer’s soul knows God 2 Cl 17:1. One Christian expresses the hope that all is well w. another’s soul 3J 2 (s. εὐοδόω). For the soul of the Christian is subject to temptations 1 Pt 2:11 and 2 Pt 2:14; longs for rest Mt 11:29 (ParJer 5:32 ὁ θεὸς … ἡ ἀνάπαυσις τῶν ψυχῶν); and must be purified 1 Pt 1:22 (cp. Jer 6:16). The soul must be entrusted to God 1 Pt 4:19; cp. 1 Cl 27:1. Christ is its ποιμὴν καὶ ἐπίσκοπος (s. ἐπίσκοπος 1) 1 Pt 2:25; its ἀρχιερεὺς καὶ προστάτης 1 Cl 61:3; its σωτήρ MPol 19:2. Apostles and congregational leaders are concerned about the souls of the believers 2 Cor 12:15; Hb 13:17. The Christian hope is called the anchor of the soul 6:19. Paul calls God as a witness against his soul; if he is lying, he will forfeit his salvation 2 Cor 1:23.—Also life of this same eternal kind κτήσεσθε τὰς ψυχὰς ὑμῶν you will gain (real) life for yourselves Lk 21:19.ⓔ Since the soul is the center of both the earthly (1a) and the transcendent (2d) life, pers. can find themselves facing the question concerning the wish to ensure it for themselves: ὸ̔ς ἐὰν θέλῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ σῶσαι, ἀπολέσει αὐτὴν• ὸ̔ς δʼ ἂν ἀπολέσει τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ, σώσει αὐτήν Mk 8:35. Cp. Mt 10:39; 16:25; Lk 9:24; 17:33; J 12:25. The contrast betw. τὴν ψυχὴν εὑρεῖν and ἀπολέσαι is found in Mt 10:39ab (s. HGrimme, BZ 23, ’35, 263f); 16:25b; σῶσαι and ἀπολέσαι vs. 25a; Mk 8:35ab; Lk 9:24ab; περιποιήσασθαι, ζῳογονῆσαι and ἀπολέσαι 17:33; φιλεῖν and ἀπολλύναι J 12:25a; μισεῖν and φυλάσσειν vs. 25b.ⓕ On the combination of ψυχή and πνεῦμα in 1 Th 5:23; Hb 4:12 (Just., D. 6, 2; Tat. 15, 1 χρὴ … ζευγνύναι … τὴν ψυχὴν τῷ πνεύματι τῷ ἁγίῳ) s. πνεῦμα 3a, end.—A-JFestugière, L’idéal religieux des Grecs et l’Évangile ’32, 212–17.—A unique combination is … σωμάτων, καὶ ψυχὰς ἀνθρώπων, slaves and human lives Rv 18:13 (cp. Ezk 27:13; on the syntax s. Mussies 98).ⓖ In var. Semitic languages the reflexive relationship is paraphrased with נֶפֶשׁ (Gr.-Rom. parallels in W-S. §22, 18b note 33); the corresp. use of ψυχή may be detected in certain passages in our lit., esp. in quots. fr. the OT and in places where OT modes of expr. have had considerable influence (B-D-F §283, 4; W-S. §22, 18b; Mlt. 87; 105 n. 2; Rob. 689; KHuber, Untersuchungen über d. Sprachcharakter des griech. Lev., diss. Zürich 1916, 67), e.g. Mt 11:29; 26:38; Mk 10:45; 14:34; Lk 12:19; 14:26; J 10:24; 12:27; 2 Cor 1:23; 3J 2; Rv 18:14; 1 Cl 16:11 (Is 53:10); B 3:1, 3 (Is 58:3, 5); 4:2; 17:1. Cp. also 2 Cor 12:15; Hb 13:17; GJs 2:2; 13:2; 15:3 (on these last s. ταπεινόω 2b).③ an entity w. personhood, person ext. of 2 by metonymy (cp. 1c): πᾶσα ψυχή everyone (Epict. 1, 28, 4; Lev 7:27; 23:29 al.)

Another interpr. thinks of Paul as referring to the period in his life when he was not conscious of the existence and significance of the law. In view of Paul’s climactic affirmation in Ro 7:25, Paul probably illustrates in the first person the perils of a Christian who succumbs to the illusion that moral action is connected with law rather than with the ‘spirit of life in Christ’ Ro 8:2) Ro 7:9. Even now those who listen to the voice of the Son of God enjoy this life J 5:25; cp. 11:26; likew. those who receive him into their being ὁ τρώγων τὸν ἄρτον 6:57c; cp.

OSchmitz, GHeinrici Festschr. 1914, 155–69). Another common interpr. is for me to live is Christ, i.e. while I am alive I experience real life in connection with Christ; w. death comes life in all fullness in the presence of Jesus.β. More specifically εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα have eternal life (Ps.-Lucian, Philopatr. 17 ζῆν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα; PsSol 14:2) J 6:51, 58 (in J the blessed life which the follower of Jesus enjoys here and now in the body is simply continued in the heavenly life of the future.

6 πρός
πρός, dor. u. poet. ποτί u. προτί (nur in wenigen Zusammensetzungen wird ι elidirt, s. oben ποτί), kretische Form durch Buchstabenumstellung war πορτί, Greg. Cor. p. 238; – zu, adverb., ohne Casus, noch dazu, oben drein, außerdem; am häufigsten πρὸς δέ, Hom. oft, wie ϑλάσσε δέ οἱ κοτύλην, πρὸς δ' ἄμφω ῥῆξε τένοντε, Il. 5, 307; ἅπερ τελεῖται, πρὸς δ' ἃ βούλομαι λέγω, Aesch. Prom. 931; Her. 1, 71. 2, 119. 3, 135. 5, 20 u. sonst (auch in attischer Prosa nicht selten); πρὸς γάρ, 3, 91; καὶ πρὸς πιέζει χρημάτων ἀχηνία, Aesch. Ch. 299; ὄλωλα καὶ πρός γ' ἐξελαύνομαι χϑονός, Eur. Med. 704, vgl. Or. 621 Hel. 962; καὶ πρὸς οὐκ αἰτοῠμαι οὐδέν, Ar. Equ. 576; κἄγωγε πρός, Ran. 416, vgl. Plut. 1001; καὶ πρός, Her. 6, 125 u. oft bei den Attikern; πρὸς δὲ καί, Thuc. 3, 58, Xen. Hell. 6, 7, 3 Cyr. 6, 4, 8, πρὸς δ' ἔτι, Her. 3, 74; Xen. An. 3, 2, 2; πρὸς δὲ καί, Plat. Prot. 321 d; καὶ πρός γε, Rep. I, 328 a. Soph. 234 a; καὶ ἐλεεινόν γε πρός, Gorg. 469 b; vgl, noch Pors. Eur. Phoen. 629, Reisig comm. crit. Soph. O. C. 809 p. 308. Vgl. auch προςέτι.
Als Präposition mit dem gen., dat. u. accus.
I. Mit dem gen., von her, den Gegenstand bezeichnend, von dessen Seite her Etwas kommt, oder von dem Etwas ausgeht; – 1) örtlich, die Richtung oder Bewegung von einem Orte her bezeichnend, ἀλώμενος ἵκετ' ἐμὸν δῶ, ἠὲ πρὸς ἠοίων ἢ ἑσπερίων ἀνϑρώπων, Od. 8, 29; auch bei Verbis der Ruhe, so daß aber bei der Ortsbestimmung immer an ein Ausgehen von derselben zu denken ist, wie Thuc. 3, 21 sagt τὸ τεῖχος εἶχε δύο τοὺς περιβόλους πρός τε Πλαταιέων καὶ εἴ τις ἔξωϑεν ἀπ' Ἀϑηνῶν ἐπίοι, von Platää her; 4, 31 verbindet er ἔκ τε τοῠ πελάγους καὶ πρὸς τοῠ λιμένος. So schon Hom., πρὸς μὲν ἁλὸς Κᾶρες, πρὸς Θύμβρης δ' ἔλαχον Λύκιοι, Il. 10, 428; νῆσοι πρὸς Ἤλιδος, in der Nähe von Elis, wenn man von Elis kommt, Od. 21, 347; am häufigsten bei Bestimmungen der Himmelsgegenden, von Norden, von Westen her, wo uns geläufiger ist »gegen Norden« zu sagen, αἱ μὲν (ϑύραι) πρὸς Βορέαο καταιβαταὶ ἀνϑρώποισιν, αἱ δ' αὖ πρὸς Νότου εἰσὶ ϑεώτεραι, Od. 13, 110. 111, πρὸς δύνοντος ἡλίου, Aesch. Suppl. 252; πρὸς νότου ἀνέμου, Her. 3, 101. 102; πρὸς μεσαμβρίης Ἀραβίη ἐστί, ib. 107; sogar χωρίον πρὸς τοῠ Τμώλου τετραμμένον, 1, 84; τὰ πρὸς νότου, Plat. Critia. 112 c; τὰ ὑποζύγια ἔχοντες πρὸς τοῠ ποταμοῠ, auf der Seite des Flusses, Xen. An. 2, 2, 4, vgl. 4, 3, 26. So sagt auch Soph. ἐμπολᾶτε τὸν πρὸς Σάρδεων ἤλεκτρον, Ant. 1024, der von Sardes herkommt. Da aber auch die Griechen so πρός c. accus. brauchten, die Richtung wohin bezeichnend, so verbindet Her. τὸν μὲν πρὸς βορέω ἑστεῶτα, τὸν δὲ πρὸς νότον, 2, 121, vgl. 4, 17. 122. In Stellen, wie Il. 15, 669, φόως γένετ' ἀμφοτέρωϑεν, ἠμὲν πρὸς νηῶν, u. 22, 198, αὐτὸς δὲ ποτὶ πτόλιος πέτετ' αἰετός, übersetzt man hinwärts, aber in der ersten Stelle wird schon durch ἀμφοτέρωϑεν die Auffassung »von den Schiffen her« angedeutet. Einfach durch an kann es öfters übersetzt werden, εἰσὶ οὗτοι οἱ χῶροι πρὸς ϑαλάσσης, Her. 2, 154, vgl. 5, 15. 8, 120; Πελλήνη πρὸς Σικυῶνος, 1, 145; auch φυλακαὶ κατέστασαν πρὸς Αἰϑιόπων Ἀραβίων, 2, 30, sie standen von der Seite. der Araber her, d. h. vor, gegenüber, also eigtl. von feindlicher Seite her. – Daher 2) von Personen, – a) auf Jemandes Seite stehen, d. h. von seiner Partei sein, für Einen sein, πρὸς τῶν κρατούντων δ' ἐσμέν, οἱ δ' ἡσσωμένων, Aesch. Spt. 498; ἐπειδὴ Ζεὺς πρὸς ἡμῶν ἐστιν, für uns ist, Eur. Rhes. 320. auch πρὸς τῶν ἐχόντων, Φοῖβε, τὸν νόμον τίϑης, d. i. zu Gunsten der Reichen, Alc. 58; πρός τινος λέγειν, Ar. Vesp. 647; Κροῖσος ἐλπίσας πρὸς ἑωυτοῠ τὸν χρησμὸν εἶναι, daß das Orakel für ihn sei, Her. 1, 75; τὸ ἐν στενῷ ναυμαχέειν πρὸς ἡμέων ἐστί, 8, 60, 2, ist zu unserm Vortheil; dah. γενέσϑαι πρός τινος, Einem beitreten, 7, 22, ἀπ οστάντες ἀπ' ἐκείνου καὶ γενόμενοι πρὸς σέο, 1, 124; ὅ ἐστι πρὸς τῶν ἠδικηκότων μᾶλλον, Thuc. 3, 38; Καλλίας μοι δοκεῖ μάλα πρὸς Πρωταγόρου εἶναι, Plat. Prot. 336 d; daher πρὸς λόγου εἶναι, zum Zwecke dienlich sein, Gorg. 459 c; πρὸς ἐμοῦ δικαίως τὴν ψῆφον ἔϑεσϑε, zu meinen Gunsten, Dem. 39, 40; κἂν μέν τι ᾖ πρὸς τῶν ἐχϑρῶν κατὰ τῆς πόλεως ἐν τοῖς ὅρκοις, 17, 18, Folgde, vgl. οὐ κατ' αὐτοῠ, πρὸς αὐτοῠ δὲ νομίσας εἶναι τὰ συμβαίνοντα, Pol. 3, 104, 2; – τὰ πρὸς σφῷν, so viel wie das Eurige, Soph. O. R. 668. – b) von Einem ausgehend, zunächst von Einem erlangen, erhalten, vernehmen; ἔχειν τιμὴν πρὸς Διός, Od. 11, 302, Ehre von Seiten des Zeus erlangen, haben, die Zeus gewährt; ὡς ἄν μοι τιμὴν μεγάλην καὶ κῠδος ἄρηαι πρὸς πάντων Δαναῶν, Il. 16, 84, vgl. 22, 514; wie ἄρνυσϑαί τι πρός τινος, 1, 160; εἰ γὰρ τύχοιεν ὧν φρονοῠσι πρὸς ϑεῶν, wenn sie von den Göttern erlangen, die Götter ihnen gewähren, Aesch. Spt. 532; ähnlich ὅπη μέλλει τις οἴσεσϑαι δάκρυ πρὸς τῶν, κλυόντων, Prom. 642; τὰς ἡδονὰς πρὸς σοῠ λαβοῠσα ἐκτησάμην, Soph. El. 1295, vgl. Tr. 330; ἵνα κακόν τι πρὸς ϑεῶν ἢ πρὸς ἀνϑρώπων λάβοι, Her. 2, 139, vgl. 152; ἀκούειν τι πρός τινος, von Einem, aus seinem Munde hören, Il. 6, 525, Her. 7, 153; μανϑάνειν πρός τινος, Soph. Phil. 959 O. C. 13, ὅπως πρὸς σοῠ τι κερδἀναιμι, Tr. 190. – c) dann bei solchen Verbis, die einen leidenden Zustand, eine Einwirkung eines Andern andeuten, bes. bei πάσχω, οἷα πρὸς ϑεῶν πάσχω ϑεός, Aesch. Prom. 92; Ch. 413 Eum. 100, Soph. Phil. 1343; Her. 1, 73. 3, 65. 74; κακῶς κλύουσα πρὸς σέϑεν, Soph. El. 514, durch deine Veranlassung in schlimmem Rufe stehen; oft ϑανεῖν πρός τινος, Aesch. Eum. 597, Soph. O. R. 592 u. öfter, Eur. Or. 1632; πρὸς ἀλλήλοιν ϑανεῖν, Einer durch den Andern umkommen, Valck. Phoen. 1275. Auffallend braucht Soph. sogar zwei Präpositionen, πρὸς τῶν ϑανόντων μηδενὸς ϑανεῖν ὕπο, Trach. 1150. so auch ὤλετο πρὸς χειρὸς ἕϑεν, Aezeh. Suppl. 64, Soph. Ant. 51; ποίας ὄλλυμαι πρὸς αἰτίας, aus welchem Grunde, durch welche Schuld, Eur. Andr. 1126; vgl. Soph. O. R. 1236, – πρὸς ὧν ἐκπίπτει κράτους, Aesch. Prom. 950. 998; Soph. Ant. 675 u. A. – Dader auch geradezu bei Passivis statt ὑπό, bei Tragg., πρὸς τοῦ τύραννα σκῆπτρα συληϑήσεται; αὐτὸς πρὸς αὑτοῠ κενοφρόνων βουλευμάτων, Aesch. Prom. 762, von wem wird der Raub ausgehen? πρὸς ἄτης ϑηραϑεῖσαι, 1074; πρὸς ἀνδρὸς δ' ἀνὴρ ὑπὸ δορὶ καίνεται, Spt. 329; πρὸς φίλου ἔφϑισο, 954, u. oft; τῶν ἐμῶν τητώμενος πρὸς τοῠ κακίστου, Soph. Phil. 384; γελώμενος πρὸς σοῠ, 1012; πρὸς ὑμῶν λειφϑήσομαι, 1060, πρὸς τοῠ διδαχϑείς, O. R. 359: so διδάσκεσϑαι πρός τινος Il. 11, 831, von Einem belehrt werden, wie μανϑάνω, u. sonst; woran sich auch reiht αὐτὴ πρὸς αὑτῆς τέϑνηκε, Tr. 1122; αὐτὸς πρὸς αὑτοῠ, sc. αἱμάσσεται, Ant. 1162. Aber πρὸς ἀνδρὸς ἢ τέκνων φοβουμένη, Soph. Tr. 149, ist = in Ansehung; – πρὸς ἀνδρὸς ἠδικημένη, Eur. Med. 26; nicht selten λέγεσϑαι πρός τινος, von Einem erwähnt werden, Her. 3, 115; οὐ λέγεται πρὸς οὐδαμῶν, 4, 47; τετιμῆσϑαι, ἀτιμάζεσϑαι, περιϋβρίζεσϑαι πρός τινος, geehrt oder beschimpft werden von Einem, 2, 75. 5, 20. 1, 61. 2, 152; auch λόγου οὐδενὸς γιγνόμεϑα πρὸς Περσέων, 1, 221; τὸ ποιεύμενον πρὸς Λακεδαιμονίων, das von den Lacedämoniern Gethane, 7, 209; u. daher auch ἐλείπετο ἀϑάνατον μνήμην πρὸς Ἑλλησποντίων, 4, 144, wo wir übersetzen »ein Andenken bei den Hellespontiern hinterlassen«, eigentlich das von den Hell. ausgehende Andenken. – Auch bei subst. u. adj. findet sich diese Vrbdg, ἔρημος πρὸς φίλων, verlassen von Seiten der Freunde, Soph. Ant. 910; βαρείαις πρὸς ϑεῶν δυςπραξίαις, 746, die von Seiten der Götter verhängt sind; δόλος πρὸς κασιγνήτου, Eur.

W-S. §13, 7; B-D-F §28; Mlt-H. 219) and καήσομαι (Hs 4, 4); pf. ptc. κεκαυμένος.① to cause to be lighted or be on fire, to light, to have/keep burningⓐ lit. λύχνον a lamp (Posidon: 87 Fgm. 94 Jac.; cp. Lev 24:2, 4; Jos., C. Ap. 1, 308; PGM 4, 2372) Mt 5:15 (so act. καίω τι X., An. 4, 4, 12; 4, 1, 11; EpJer 18. But, in contrast to ἅπτω, κ. lays the emphasis less upon the act of lighting than on keeping a thing burning; s. Jülicher, Gleichn. 80.—Diod S 13, 111, 2 πυρὰ κάειν=keep fires burning). Pass. w. act. sense be lit, burn Mk 4:21 v.l. λύχνοι καιόμενοι (Artem. 2, 9; cp. Phlegon: 257 Fgm. 36. 1, 1 Jac. καιομένου τοῦ λύχνου; Ex 27:20; Jos., Ant. 8, 90) Lk 12:35; J 5:35; λαμπάδες … καιόμεναι Rv 4:5; GJs 7:2; cp. ἀστὴρ … καιόμενος ὡς λαμπάς Rv 8:10. πῦρ καιόμενον (Hdt. 1, 86; Is 4:5; SibOr 7, 6) MPol 11:2a. κλίβανος καιόμενος a burning or heated oven (Hos 7:4) 2 Cl 16:3. W. πυρί added (Pla., Phd. 113a εἰς τόπον μέγαν πυρὶ πολλῷ καιόμενον) Hb 12:18 (cp. Dt 4:11; 5:23; 9:15); Rv 8:8. πυρὶ καὶ θείῳ w. fire and brimstone (cp. Is 30:33) 21:8; cp. 19:20.ⓑ fig. of emotional experience (schol. on Apollon. Rhod. 3, 762 ἡ ὀδύνη καίουσα; Philo, Decal. 49 καιόμενοι κ. κατακαιόμενοι ὑπὸ τ. ἐπιθυμιῶν) of the heart οὐχὶ ἡ καρδία ἡμῶν καιομένη ἦν; were not our hearts burning? Lk 24:32 (cp. PGM 7, 472 καιομένην τὴν ψυχὴν κ. τὴν καρδίαν; TestNapht 7:4 ἐκαιόμην τοῖς σπλάγχνοις. PGrenf I, 1 I, 9 [II B.C.] συνοδηγὸν ἔχω τὸ πολὺ πῦρ τὸ ἐν τῇ ψυχῇ μου καιόμενον. Cp. Ps 38:4. On the variants s. in addition to the comm. WAllen, JTS 2, 1901, 299).② to cause someth. to burn so as to be consumed, burn (up) act. trans. (Hom. et al.; Job 15:34; Just., A I, 53f) MPol 18:1. Pass. intr. be burned (Is 5:24; Jos., Ant. 4, 248 [ἡ παιδίσκη] καιέσθω ζῶσα) Mt 13:40 v.l. (for κατακαίεται, s. κατακαίω) J 15:6; Hs 4:4. The stones being burned Hv 3, 2, 9; 3, 7, 2 are to be understood as representing apostates: ApcPt Bodl. (restored by Bartlet).—MPol 12:3a. σὰρξ καιομένη 15:2. δεῖ με ζῶντα καυθῆναι I must be burned alive 5:2; cp. 12:3b (Ael. Aristid, 36, 67 K.=48 p. 465 D.: καυθήσεσθαι ζῶντες; 45 p. 74 D.; Appian, Hann. 31 §132 ζῶντας ἔκαυσε). The mng. is disputed in ἐὰν παραδῶ τὸ σῶμά μου ἵνα καυθήσομαι 1 Cor 13:3 v.l. (for καυχήσωμαι; s. καυχάομαι 1). Most scholars in this connection think of martyrdom (e.g. Ltzm., JSickenberger, H-D Wendland.—Cp. e.g. Da 3:19f; 2 Macc 7:5; 4 Macc 6:26; 7:12; Jos., Ant. 17, 167. Also Dio Chrys. 7 [8], 16 μαστιγούμενον κ. τεμνόμενον κ. καόμενον).—JWeiss (in Meyer9) and FDölger (Antike u. Christentum I 1929, 254–70) prefer to interpret it as voluntary self-burning (Diod S 17, 107, 1–6 Κάλανος; Lucian, Peregr. 20 καύσων ἑαυτόν of Peregr.; RFick, D. ind. Weise Kalanos u. s. Flammentod: NGG, Phil.-Hist. Kl. ’38; NMacnicol, ET 55, ’43/44, 50–52). KSchmidt (TW III 466–69) leaves the choice open betw. the two possibilities mentioned.—Preuschen (ZNW 16, 1915, 127–38) interprets it to mean brand, mark as a slave by branding, i.e. to sell oneself as a slave and present the purchase price to charity (for the idea s. 1 Cl 55:2).—B. 75.
