Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [not in Pok.] * h₃bʰel- `owe, be obliged'

Etymology: The system ὀφλεῖν: ὀφλισκ-άνω: ὀφλήσω: ὤφληκα agrees with (except for the enlarging - άνω; Schwyzer 700) the group εὑρεῖν: εὑρίσκω, εὑρήσω, εὕρηκα; to this came the aorist ὀφλῆσαι (Lys. a. late); also [Ϝο]φλέ-ασι has the same enlarged zero grade without second. κ. Beside this system built on a zero grade themat. aorist stands another, based on the full grade aorist ὤφελον, to which came the nasal present *ὀφέλ-νω ( \> ὀφείλω, ὀφέλλω, ὀφήλω) like ἔτεμον: τέμνω. As the formation of the present ὀφείλω became unclear through the phonetic development, it could become the basis of another system. Also semantically the formal pairs went different ways. -- An old problem provides Ϝο- which appears only in an Arc. inscription. While some, e.g. Brugmann IF 29, 241 (cf. on οἴγνυμι), want to see in it a prefix (to Lat. au-, vē-, Skt. áva `away (from)'; diff. Vollgraff Mél. Bq 2, 339), others are inclined, e.g. Solmsen KZ 34, 450f., Fraenkel Phil. 97, 162, to see Ϝο- as reversed writing for ὀ- (further in Schwyzer 226 n. 1). -- Further quite isolated and dark; an attempt to connect ὀφείλω etc. with ὀφέλλω `augment' in v.

Meaning: `five'.

Other forms: Aeol. πέμπε, Pamph. πέ(ν)δε.

Compounds: As 1. member beside πεντε-, πεμπε- mostly πεντα- (Il.,; after ἑπτα-, δεκα-, τετρα- etc.); on πεντή-κοντα s. bel.

Derivatives: From it the ordinal πέμπτος, Arc. πέμποτος (after δέκοτος), Gortyn. πέντος, with πεμπταῖος `belonging to the fifth (day), happening on the fifth (day)' (ξ 257); the adv. πεντάκις (Pi.) beside πενπάκι (Sparta; Kretschmer Glotta 3, 305), πεμπτάκις (D.S.); the collective πεμπάς f. `quintet' (Pl., X.) beside πεμπτάς (? Pl. Phd. 104a), πεντάς (Arist.) with πεντάδ-ιον n. `quintet' (pap. II-III<sup>p</sup>), πεμπαδ-ικός `fivefold' (Dam.). Adv. πέντα-χα (Μ 87), - χοῦ, -χῃ̃, - χῶς; adj. πενταξός `fivefold' (Arist.; διξός); subst. πεντάχα ἡ χείρ H. (cf. NGr. Lac. πεντόχτη `hand', Κουκσυλές Άρχ. 27, 61 ff.). Denom. verb, prob. from πεμπάς (Schwyzer 734 w. n 4): πεμπάζομαι, -ω `to count (by the five, with the five fingers)' (δ 412, A.), ἀνα- πέντε `count over, to calculate, to think over' (Pl., Plu.) with πεμ-παστάς m. (Dor.) `the counting one' (A. in lyr.; Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 33 ff.). -- From πεντήκοντα: πεντηκοσ-τύς f. `body of fifty', part of a Spart. λόχος (Th., X.) with πεντηκοστήρ, sec. - κοντήρ m. `commander of a πεντηκοστύς' (Cos, Th., X., Att. inscr.; Schwyzer 597 a. 531, Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 201, Benveniste Noms d'ag. 74).

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [409] * penkʷe `five'

Etymology: Non-Aeol. πέντε, from where Pamph. πέ(ν)δε with weakening of the voiceless cons. after the (disappearing) nasal, Aeol. πέμπε and the other words for `five', e.g. Skt. páñca, Lat. quīnque, Lith. penkì, Goth. fimf, go all back on IE *pénkʷe. Beside it πέμπτος (second. πέντος; phonetic. or after πέντε) like Lat. quīntus, Lith. peñktas, Goth. fimfta from * penkʷtos. Both in πέμπτος and in πεμπάς, - άζομαι the π befor τ and α continues directly the labio-velar. The lengthening in πεντή-κοντα (PGr. η) appears not only in Skt. pañcā-śát- f., but also in Arm. yi-sun (i from IE ē); parallel with it Lat. quinquā-gintā (after quadrā-gintā?). -- Further on the Greek forms in Schwyzer 590, 592, 596, 598 and Sommer Zum Zahlwort 15 a. 19f.; on the other languages WP. 2, 25f., Pok. 808, W.-Hofmann s. quīnque, Mayrhofer s. páñca etc.; all w. rich lit.

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `to duck (for fright)'; aor. 1. rarely trans. `to frighten, to drive away' ([Ξ 40], Thgn.), (ΙΑ.; Schwyzer 716).

Other forms: also πτώσσω (ep. poet. Il.), Aeol. πτάζω (Alc.?), fut. πτήξω (Att.), aor. 1. πτῆξαι (Il.), Dor. πτᾶξαι (Pi. a.o.), aor. 2. ptc. κατα-πτᾰκών (A. Eu. 252), perf. ἔπτηχα (Att. etc.), ἔπτηκα (LXX [v. l. - χα], late); also ep. forms ptc. perf. πεπτηώς (Β 312, ξ 354 a.o.), aor. 3. du. κατα-πτήτην (Θ 136).

Compounds: Also w. prefix, esp. κατα- and ὑπο-.

Derivatives: πτῆξις f. `fright' (LXX) and the expressive enlargement πτωσκάζω `to duck, to have fear' (Δ 372) after the close ἀλυσκάζω (: ἀλύσκω, ἀλύσσω), ἠλασκάζω; perh. from *πτώσκω; the v. l. πτωκάζω after πτώξ. Cf. Schwyzer 708, Chantraine Rev. de phil. 57, 125, Gramm. hom. 1, 338.

Origin: IE [Indo-European](X) [825] * pteh₂-k- `duck (away), shy'

Etymology: The presents πτήσσω (with πτῆξαι etc.), πτώσσω go back on *πτᾱκ-ι̯ω, *πτωκ-ι̯ω (\< * ptoh₂k-; Aeol. πτάζω is an innovation; Schwyzer 715); to this the zero grade πτᾰκ-ών. In nominal function we find these stems in πτώξ and (acc.) πτάκ-α; s. vv., also πτωχός. The formantic character of the velar appears from ep. πε-πτη-ώς, κατα-πτή-την, which form at the same time a bridge to πέ-πτω-κα, πτῶ-σις (s. πίπτω) and to πτᾰ́-σθαι (s. πέτομαι). Semant. this combination ('fall, sink down' \> `squat') seems not to provide a serious difficulty (diff. Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 428). A further cognate is πτοέω, s. v. -- If the comparison with Arm. t`ak`-čim, t`ak`-eay `hide oneself' (Pedersen KZ 39, 342 f. w. n.) is correct, the velar enlargement is inherited. On Arm. s. Clackson 1994, 169f. -- WP. 2, 19f., Pok. 825; older lit. in Bq. -- So an IE * pteh₂-k-, with * ptoh₂-k-, is perhaps not impossible; but Hackstein ( Glotta 70, 1992) 136-165 rejects a root of this shape, and it is indeed remarkable. Note futher πτωχός and πτοέω, which are also rather strange. Photius gives πτεκάς πτάξ.

Meaning: `frost, cold, shivering fit' (ε 472).

Compounds: Some compp., e.g. ῥιγο-πύρετος m. (- ον n.) `tertian fever, ague' (Gal., Ptol. a.o.) for older (Hp.) πυρετὸς καὶ ῥῖγος (Strömberg Wortstud. 85), ἀ-ρριγής (adv. - γέως) `not sensitive to cold' (Hp.); also ἄ-ρ(ρ)ιγος `id., not shivering (Arist., Aret.) as δύσ-ριγος `to tolerate cold badly' (Hdt., Arist., Thphr.); both connected with ῥιγέω as e.g. δύσ-φορος with φορέω, φέρω. From it as denom. ῥιγώω, - ῶσαι, rarely w. ἐπι-, ἐν- a.o., `to freeze' (ξ 481), after the opposite ἱδρώω (not from *ῥιγωσ- with e.g. Schwyzer 724).

Derivatives: ἔρρῑγα perf. `freeze, congeal, shudder', aor. ῥιγῆσαι (ep. Il.), fut. ῥιγήσω (Ε 351), pres. ῥιγέω (Pi.); rarely w. ἀπο-, ἐπι-, κατα-. -- Primary comp. ῥίγιον `colder, ghastlier, terribler' (Hom., Hes., Semon.), sup. ῥίγιστα (Ε 873), - ος, - ον (A. R., Nic.). -- Further adj.: 1. ῥιγεδανός `ghastly, terrible' (Τ 325, A. R., Opp.), after unknown example to ῥιγος or from *ῥιγεδών? (Chantraine Form. 362, Schwyzer 530, Specht Ursprung 199 a. 345); 2. ῥιγαλέος `id.' (Emp.); to ῥῖγος as ἀργαλέος to ἄλγος (Debrunner IF 23, 21, Benveniste Origines 46); 3. ῥιγηλός ( κατα-) `id.' (ξ 226, Hes. Sc., Nic., Nonn. Ap), from ἔριγα, ῥιγέω; 4. ῥιγώδης `causing a shivering fit' (Hp., Gal.), from ῥῖγος; 5. ` Ρῖγμος m. n. of a Thracian (Υ 485); to ῥῖγος as θερμός to θέρος (Risch $ 19f)?

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1004] * sriHg-os `cold'

Etymology: With ἔρριγα: ῥῖγος agree γέγηθα: γῆθος, λέληθα: Dor. λᾶθος, with ablaut γέγονα: γένος a.o.; as ῥίγιον: ῥῖγος also e.g. ἄλγιον: ἄλγος, κέρδιον: κέρδος (Schwyzer 539). -- With ῥῖγος agrees exactly Lat. frīgus n. `cold, frost, shivering' when we posit IE * sriHgos n. Thus ῥῑγέω = Lat. frīgeō, but they may originate from parallel innovation. Further connection quite uncertain; s. WP. 2, 7 05 f. and W.-Hofmann s. frīgeō w. rich lit.

Grammatical information: f. (gender after βοέη, αἰγέη a.o.).

Wörter 196 ff.; on this Trümpy Fachausdrücke 38 w. Nachtr.

Derivatives: γρίντης (= Ϝρίντης) βυρσεύς H. (formation prob. after the primary ξάντης, ὑφάντης a.o.).

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]

Etymology: The notation γρῖνος δέρμα H. (Aeol.; γρινός Hdn. Gr.) confirms Ϝρῑνός, which is also seen in ταλαύρινος, which was connected with th same verb as ῥίνη (s.v.); so prop. "das Abreissen", resp. "die abgerissene Haut" like δέρμα from δέρω (to which a.o. Skt. dīrṇá- `torn up' with n-suffix like Ϝρῑ-νός). -- The Germanic long i derived from - ei- (cf. Goth. writs with short i), but this is impossible for the Greek form (the case is different with δέρμα, as δέρω means `flay', but *u̯rei-(d-) means rather `scratch'. So the etymology must be rejected. The word could be Pre-Greek.

Jos., Ant. 13, 220); δοῦναί τινι τὴν β. vs. 17; ἔχειν β. ἐπί τινων vs. 18; ἐποίησεν ἡμᾶς βασιλείαν he gave us royal jurisdiction 1:6; cp. 5:10; royal rule Lk 1:33; 22:29; 23:42 v.l. (ἐν τῇ β. σου in your royal power); Ac 1:6; Hb 1:8 (Ps 44:7); 1 Cor 15:24 (παραδιδόναι as Diod S 1, 43, 6); B 4:4 (Da 7:24). Ps 95:10 (Justin, A I, 41, 4, D. 73: ὁ κύριος ἐβασίλευσεν ἀπὸ τ. ξύλου) is the basis for β. Ἰησοῦ ἐπὶ ξύλου the rule of Jesus on the cross B 8:5 (s. Windisch, Hdb. ad loc.).—Hb 11:33; 1 Cl 61:1.

ⓑ esp. of God’s rule the royal reign of God (usually rendered ‘kingdom of God’, and oft. understood as royal realm but with dilution of the primary component of reigning activity), a chiefly eschatological concept, beginning to appear in the prophets, elaborated in apocalyptic passages (Mi 4:7f; Ps 102:19; 144:11–13; Wsd 6:4; 10:10; Da 3:54; 4:3; cp. SibOr 3:47f.—Diod S 5, 71, 1 Zeus takes over the βασιλεία from Cronus; Sextus 311 κοινωνεῖ βασιλείας θεοῦ σοφὸς ἀνήρ) and taught by Jesus. The expressions vary; β. τοῦ θεοῦ and τῶν οὐρανῶν have essentially the same mng., since Israelites used οὐρανός (-οί) as well as other circumlocutions for θεός (cp. Mt 19:23f; s. Bousset, Rel.³ 314f); the latter term may also emphasize the heavenly origin and nature of the reign.—Dalman, Worte 75–119; JWeiss, D. Predigt Jesu v. Reiche Gottes² 1900, 1–35; ESellin, D. isr.-jüd.

Mt 8:11; sim. 26:29; Mk 14:25; Lk 13:28f; 22:16, 18, 30; cp. the parables 14:15ff; Mt 22:2ff. Participants in it are called υἱοὶ τῆς β. Mt 8:12 (of mere external connection); 13:38. Prerequisite for participation is μετάνοια Mt 4:17; Mk 1:15; the willingness to become like children Mt 18:3f; 19:14; Mk 10:14f; Lk 18:16f. Only uprightness will inherit the β. Mt 5:20. Degrees and grades 5:19; 18:1, 4. The prosperous have difficulty entering 19:23f; Mk 10:23–25; Lk 18:24f (cp. vs. 29), those who persist in sin have no prospects at all Mt 13:24ff, 36ff, 47ff.—Paul thinks of the β. as someth. that effects changes in pers. resulting in righteousness, peace (w. God) and joy Ro 14:17. It manifests itself in deeds, not in words 1 Cor 4:20. Those committed to sin will not inherit it 6:9f; Gal 5:21; Eph 5:5 (cp. 2 Cl 9:6); the latter passages show that for Paul the kgdm. is essentially future, since Christians await the complete victory of the spirit over the flesh. Cp. also 2 Ti 4:1. Flesh and blood will not inherit it, i.e. bodies under the direction of the spirit of Christ are required for entrance 1 Cor 15:50 (JJeremias, NTS 2, ’56, 151–59).

② territory ruled by a king, kingdom (Diod S 4, 68, 4; Appian, Mithrid. 105 §496 ἡ βας. ὅλη=the whole kingdom; OGI 383, 25 [I B.C.]; Ps 67:33; 134:11; Bar 2:4; Tob 1:21; 1 Macc 1:6; 3:27; 2 Macc 9:25; 3 Macc 6:24 al. LXX) Mt 12:25f; 24:7; Mk 3:24; 6:23 (Socrat., Ep. 1, 10 τ. βασιλείας μέρος διδόναι); 13:8; Lk 11:17f; 21:10; αἱ β. τοῦ αἰῶνος τούτου IRo 6:1. In the account of the temptation Mt 4:8; Lk 4:5 (in a manner very different from Jesus, Alexander [Diod S 17, 51, 2] asks his father, Zeus Ammon, for τὴν ἁπάσης τῆς γῆς ἀρχήν and finds a hearing).—EDNT. DELG s.v. βασιλεύς. M-M. TW. Spicq. Sv.

βρῶσις, εως, ἡ (Hom. et al.; pap, LXX; TestAbr B 13 p. 117, 22 [Stone p. 82]; EpArist 129; Philo; Joseph.; Just., D. 57, 3; Mel., P. 47, 337).

① the act of partaking of food, eating (w. πόσις [this combin. since Od. 1, 191; also Diod S 1, 45, 2; Plut., Mor. 114c; Da 1:10; Philo, Mos. 1, 184]) Ro 14:17; Col 2:16. W. obj. gen. (as Pla., Rep. 10, 619c; Jos., Ant. 1, 334; TestReub 2:7 βρῶσις βρωμάτων) β. τῶν εἰδωλοθύτων eating of meat sacrificed to idols 1 Cor 8:4; ἄρτος εἰς β. (as Is 55:10) bread to eat 2 Cor 9:10; ὡς περὶ β. as if they referred to eating B 10:9; ἔχετε τελείως περὶ τῆς β. you are fully instructed on eating, i.e. on dietary laws 10:10 (cp. ὁ περὶ βρώσεων καὶ πόσεων … νόμος Orig., C. Cels. 2, 2, 17); εἰς β. to eat PtK 2 p. 14, 17.

② the process of causing deterioration by consuming, consuming w. σής Mt 6:19f, where β. is used as a general term for consuming, which could be done by a variety of insects (in Mal 3:11 LXX A, e.g., β. is used to render אוכֵל =‘grasshopper’; מַאֲכוֹלֶת= wood worm has been suggested [HGressmann, Hdb. ad loc.]). Cp. EpJer 10, where a few mss. have βρῶσις instead of βρώματα w. ἰός. This combin. argues against the identification of βρῶσις w. ἰός in Mt, and it is not likely that a hendiadys is present. The interpretation corrosion, rust finds no support outside this passage. In the medical passages that have been adduced (cp. Galen 6, 422 [pl.]; 12, 879 ed. Kühn 1823) β.=‘decay’ of teeth. The balanced structure of the passage implies garments as victims of ‘moth and eating’, and other possessions as plunder of thieves.

③ that which one eats, food (Soph. Fgm. 182, 2 TGF; Philostrat., Vi. Apoll. 8, 7 p. 307, 27; PLond III, 1223, 9 p. 139 [121 A.D.] χόρτον εἰς βρῶσιν προβάτων; PLips 118, 15; POxy 1686, 10; Gen 25:28; Jer 41:20; 2 Km 19:43 v.l. βρῶσιν ἐφάγαμεν; Philo, Op. M. 38).

① become the parent of, beget

ⓐ by procreation (oft. LXX, fr. Gen 4:18 on) Mt 1:2–20 (cp. Diod S 4, 67, 2–68, 6, the genealogy of the Aeolians: 67, 4 Ἄρνη ἐγέννησεν Αἰόλον κ. Βοιωτόν; 67, 7 Ἱππάλκιμος ἐγέννησε Πηνέλεων; 68:1 Σαλμωνεὺς ἐγέννησε θυγατέρα … Τυρώ; 68, 3 Ποσειδῶν ἐγέννησε Πελίαν κ. Νηλέα; 68, 6 Νηλεὺς παῖδας ἐγέννησε δώδεκα. Interchanged with ἐγέννησε are ἐτέκνωσε, ἦν υἱός, παῖδες ἐγένοντο, etc.; cp. PMich 155, 7. The continuity is not formalized to the degree in Mt, but in Diod S 4, 69, 1–3 ἐγέννησε is repeated six times in a short space, and 4, 75, 4f ἐγέννησε occurs four times with the names of fathers and sons; Did., Gen. 144, 27); Ac 7:8, 29. ἐκ w. gen. of the mother (Hdt. 1, 108, 2; Diod S 4, 2, 1; 4, 62, 1; Palaeph. 44; PLond V, 1730, 10 οἱ ἐξ αὐτῆς γεννηθέντες υἱοί; Tob 1:9; 2 Esdr 10:44; Demetr.: 722 Fgm. 2, 2 Jac.; TestJob 1:6; Jos, Ant. 12, 189) Mt 1:3, 5f.—Pass. be fathered (Orig., C. Cels. 8, 66, 23) ἐκ τῆς παιδίσκης κατὰ σάρκα w. the slave-woman, according to the flesh (i.e. in line with human devising; opp. διʼ ἐπαγγελίας) Gal 4:23. ὁ κατὰ σάρκα γεννηθείς he that was fathered by human design, opp. ὁ κατὰ πνεῦμα he that was fathered by the Spirit’s design, i.e. in keeping with the divine promise, vs. 23) vs. 29. τὸ ἐν αὐτῇ γεννηθὲν ἐκ πνεύματός ἐστιν that which is conceived in her is of the Spirit Mt 1:20 (τὸ γεννηθέν of that which is yet unborn: Diod S 17, 77, 3). Here the male principle is introduced by ἐκ (Lucian, Dial. Deor. 20, 14 ἐκ κύκνου γεγεννημένη; Phlegon: 257 Fgm. 36, 2, 4 Jac.; Ps-Callisth. 1, 30, 3 ἐξ Ἄμμωνος ἐγεννήθη; TestSim 2:2) as J 1:13 (ἐγενήθ. P75et al.); but in 3:6 the imagery is complex, involving a maternal aspect in vs. 4. W. ἀπό (En 15:8 οἱ γίγαντες οἱ γεννηθέντες ἀπὸ τ. πνευμάτων κ. σαρκός) ἀφʼ ἑνὸς ἐγεννήθησαν they were fathered by one man Hb 11:12 (numerous edd. ἐγενήθησαν). ἐκ πορνείας οὐ γεγεννήμεθα (v.l. ἐγεννήθημεν) J 8:41 (cp. StudPal XX, 4, 30 ἐξ ἀγράφων γάμων γεγεννῆσθαι). ἐν ἁμαρτίαις σὺ ἐγεννήθης ὅλος you’re a born sinner, totally! 9:34.—Lk 1:35 (where mng. 2 is also prob. [as in τὸ γεννώμενον Philo, Plant. 15]. S.

δεκτός, ή, όν (Alciphron 3, 34, 4; Iambl., Protr. 21, 19 p. 117, 27 Pistelli; LXX; verbal adj. of δέχομαι).

① pert. to being met with approval in someone’s company, acceptable, welcome, of pers. (Hesych.: δεκτόν• εὐπρόσδεκτον): prophets Lk 4:24 (cp. the experience of Aesop οἱ δὲ ὄχλοι ἡδέως μὲν αὐτοῦ ἠκροοῦντο, οὐδὲν δὲ αὐτὸν ἐτίμησαν Vi. Aesopi W 124 P.); Ox 1 recto, 10 (ASyn. 33, 85; cp. GTh 31), only here of human recognition; in all other references in this entry always of acceptance by God. W. dat. Ac 10:35.

② pert. to being pleasing because of being approved, pleasing, acceptable, of things: sabbaths B 15:8; sacrifices (w. εὐάρεστος) Phil 4:18; MPol 14:1; Hs 5, 3, 8 (cp. Sir 35:6; Herm.

③ pert. to being appropriate to circumstances, favorable, of time 2 Cor 6:2 (Is 49:8); year Lk 4:19; B 14:9 (both Is 61:2). In these passages the concrete temporal element points to the abstract feature of God’s favorable attitude finding climactic expression.—The rdg. in ApcPt Rainer 19f is uncertain: δεκτὸς τῆς ἐπαγγελίας (Ethiopic indicates ἐκλεκτός beneficiary of the promise)—DELG s.v. δέχομαι p. 268.

Threatte II 634f (Hom.+) Strict classification of usage is not possible because of the multifunctional adaptability of this verb, esp. in colloquial discourse.

① to be under necessity of happening, it is necessary, one must, one has to, denoting compulsion of any kind.

ⓐ of that which takes place because of circumstances or inner necessity, with the context determining the cause (Hdt. [8, 53 ἔδεε κατὰ τὸ θεοπρόπιον]; Appian, Liby. 122 §578 ἁλῶναι ἔδει Καρχηδόνα=it was necessary that Carthage be captured, i.e. it could not escape being captured [Appian’s theological perspective surfaces, s. e.g. 7, 53; 8, 51; 57; 61; 62; 92]; Da 2:28f, 45 Theod; Wsd 16:4; Just., D. 6, 2; 32, 4) Mt 17:10; 24:6 (δεῖ γενέσθαι as Jos., Ant. 10, 142); 26:54; Mk 9:11; 13:7, 10; Lk 4:43; 21:9; 24:46 v.l.; J 3:14, 30; 9:4; 10:16; 20:9; Ac 1:16; 3:21; 4:12; Ro 1:27; 1 Cor 15:53; 2 Cor 5:10; Rv 1:1; 4:1; 22:6; 2 Cl 2:5.

ⓑ of the compulsion of law or custom ᾗ ἔδει θύεσθαι τὸ πάσχα when the paschal lamb had to be sacrificed Lk 22:7.—Mt 23:23; Lk 11:42; 13:14; J 4:20, 24; Ac 15:5; 18:21 v.l. Of the compulsion of Roman law 25:10.

ⓒ of an inner necessity growing out of a given situation, Mt 26:35 (Jos., Ant. 6, 108 κἂν ἀποθανεῖν δέῃ; PFay 109, 5 ἐάν σε δῇ [=δέῃ] τὸ εἱμάτιόν σου θεῖναι ἐνέχυρον; Ath. 24, 1 τί δὲ δεῖ πρὸς ὑμᾶς … μνημονεύειν;), Mk 14:31; J 4:4; Ac 14:22; 21:22 v.l.; 27:21; 2 Cor 11:30.—ὥστε … [τὴν Ἀρτεμύλλαν] μικ̣ρ̣ο̣ῦ δεῖν ἀπόπληκτον γενέσθαι so that Artemilla was on the point of fainting AcPl Ha 3, 33–35 (Demosth. 27, 29; Jos., C. Ap. 2, 119 al.).

ⓓ of compulsion caused by the necessity of attaining a certain result Lk 12:12; 19:5; Ac 9:6; 1 Cor 11:19; 2 Cl 1:1; B 4:1; IEph 7:1.—τὰ δέοντα (PPetr II, 11 [1], 6; BGU 251, 5 al.; pap; Pr 30:8; 2 Macc 13:20) the needs Hs 2, 5 and 8.

② to be someth. that should happen because of being fitting,

ⓐ gener. (Epict. 2, 22, 20 φίλος ἔσομαι οἷος δεῖ; 3, 23, 21 ὡς δεῖ, as Just., D. 114, 1; 2 Macc 6:20; 4 Macc 7:8) 2 Ti 2:6, 24. καθὸ δεῖ as is proper Ro 8:26.—δέον ἐστίν it is necessary, one must (Polyb.; POxy 727, 19f; 1061, 13; BGU 981 II, 6; Sir. Prol. ln. 3; 1 Macc 12:11; EpArist) Ac 19:36; 1 Cl 34:2; without ἐστίν (POxy 899, 40; EpArist 227; 242; Philo, Aet. M. 107; Jos., Bell. 2, 296; Just., A I, 4, 6; A II, 2, 7; D. 11, 2) ITr 2:3; Pol 5:3. εἰ δέον ἐστίν if it must be 1 Pt 1:6 (s. εἰμί 11d); οὐ δέον v.l. for οὐδέν Papias (4).—On the constr. of δεῖ, note that as a rule the acc. and inf. follow it (Jos., C. Ap. 2, 254; Lucian, Charon 13, Pisc. 17; Just., D. 11, 2 al.; B-D-F §408), occasionally the inf. alone Mt 23:23 (Jos., C. Ap. 1, 53a; Just., A I, 4, 6 al.—B-D-F §407); 26:54; Ac 5:29.—To convey the idea that someth. should not happen, δεῖ is used w. the negative οὐ Lk 13:16; 2 Tim 2:24; 2 Cl 1:1; AcPlCor 1:10 or μή. Tit 1:11 (ἃ μὴ δεῖ what is not proper [also Ael. Aristid. 54 p. 687 D.] is prob. a mixture of τὰ μὴ δέοντα 1 Ti 5:13 and ἃ οὐ δεῖ [Job 19:4]; s. B-D-F §428, 4; Rob. 1169); Ac 15:24. εἰ δὲ δεῖ ἡμᾶς … μὴ ποιεῖσθαι τὴν παραβολήν AcPlCor 2:28.

ⓑ of that which one should do (Wsd 12:19; 16:28; EpJer 5; Tob 12:1): one ought or should οὐκ ἔδει σε ἐλεῆσαι; should you not have had mercy?

ⓒ to indicate that something that happened should by all means have happened, expressed w. the impf. ἔδει (Jos., Bell. 4, 232; Just., D. 88, 6; 141, 1 al.) had to Lk 15:32; 22:7; 24:26; J 4:4; Ac 1:16; 17:3.

ⓓ to indicate that someth. that did not take place really should have happened, also expressed w. the impf. ἔδει should have, ought to have Mt 18:33; 23:23; Ac 24:19 (Ath. 21, 1; ὸ̔ν ἔδει w. inf.
