Grammatical information: m.

Meaning: `pledge, hostage, bail, warrant' (IA.).

Other forms: pl. also -α.

Derivatives: ὁμηρεύω, also with ἐξ-, συν-, `to serve as a hostage, to guarantee, to take as a pledge, to take hostage' (Att. Redner, E. Rh. 434, Antiph.) with ὁμηρ-εία f. (Pl., Th., Plb.), - ευμα n. (Plu.) `pledge, hostage', ἐξ-ευσις f. `hostage-taking' (Plu.).

Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]X [probably]

Etymology: Prob. prop. with Curtius a.o. "who is together (with others), the companion, who is forced to go with", compound of ὁμοῦ and ἀρ- in ἀραρειν etc. w. similar meaningdevelopment as in Lat. obsēs (: obsideō) `hostage, bail' (but the root ἀρ- is difficult to understand). Slightly diff. Szemerényi Glotta 33, 363 ff.: the 2. member to ἐρ- in ἔρχομαι. The orig. meaning still in ὁμηρέω and ὁμηρέταις ὁμοψήφοις, ὁμογνώμοσιν H.; cf. also ὁμαρτέω and ἁμαρτή. -- Perhaps identical with this ὅμηρος = ὁ τυφλός (Lyc., H.), "because he goes with his leader" (Birt Phil. 87, 376ff.; cf. Kretschmer Glotta 22, 264)?; hardly convincing. Rather appellative use of the name of the poet (?). On attempts to connect the name Ο῝μηρος (Cret.

Origin: IE [Indo-European] [117] * bʰidʰ- `convince, trust'

Etymology: With πείθω agrees formally exactly the Lat. themat. root-present fīdō, - ere, IE * bheidh-ō; semant. agrees however the Lat. verb with middle πείθομαι (cf. confīsus sum). Formal identity we find also with the Germ. verb for `wait' in Goth. beidan, OHG bītan etc.; the semantic cleft ('wait (for)' from `trust' or `conform, restrain' ?) is however not yet bridged. The causative too Goth. baidjan `compel', OHG beitten etc. `urge, demand' is semantically divergent; after Specht KZ 66, 205 ff. an agreeing. Gr. *ποιθέω (to which the reduplicated aor. πεπιθεῖν) would have been replaced by act. πείθω. -- The Greek system including the nominal forms is quite explainable from itself; the various adduced nouns, esp. from Lat., like fīdus (formally = the innovated πειθός), fĭdēs, foedus (not to εὑ-πειθής or to πεῖσα), to which perh. also Alb. bē f. `oath' and OCS běda `need' (IE * bhoidhā), do not help understand the Greek forms. Quite doubtful is the connection of πιστός with Alb. besë f. `belief, treaty, faithfulness', appar. from * bhidh-tā f. (= *πιστη; Hamp KZ 77, 252f.); besë rather innovation (Jokl in W.-Hofmann). -- Further forms w. rich lit. in WP. 2, 139f., 185, Pok. 117, W.-Hofmann s. fīdō.

Others take the latter gen. as a subjective gen. or gen. of quality fellowship brought about by the Holy Spirit (APlummer, w. reservations, comm. 2 Cor [ICC] et al.; TSchmidt, D.

① the mother of Jesus. The foll. forms of the name are attested in the var. cases: Μαρία as nom. Lk 2:19, otherw. only occasionally as v.l. (D Lk 1:30, 39, 56; cp. vss. 34, 38, 46). Gen. Μαρίας Mt 1:16, 18; 2:11; Mk 6:3; Lk 1:41; IEph 7:2; 18:2; 19:1; ITr 9:1; AcPlCor 1:14; 2:5. Acc. Μαρίαν Mt 1:20 (v.l.-άμ); AcPl Ha 8, 26; Μ. τὴν Γαλιλαίαν AcPlCor 2:14.—Μαριάμ as nom. Mt 1:16 v.l.; 13:55; Lk 1:27, 34, 38f, 46, 56; 2:19 (v.l.-ρία); as acc. Mt 1:20 v.l.; Lk 2:16; GJs 6:3 (not Bodmer); as voc. Lk 1:30; σὺν Μαριάμ Lk 2:5; Ac 1:14; πρὸς Μαριάμ Lk 2:34. Little is known about the life of this Mary; in the infancy narratives Mt 1f; Lk 1f and esp. in the apocryphal gospels (29 times GJs; s. AFuchs, Konkordanz) she plays a great role; s. WBauer, D. Leben Jesu im Zeitalter d. ntl. Apokryphen 1909; HUsener, ZNW 4, 1903, 1ff. In Mk 3:31f and parallels, where she and the brothers and sisters of Jesus are prominently mentioned, no indication of any interest in his movement is given. But Ac 1:14 mentions Mary and his brothers (brothers and sisters? s. ἀδελφός 1) among the members of the early church. The mother of Jesus is also mentioned in the Fourth Gospel, though not by name.—RSeeberg, Die Herkunft der Mutter Jesu: Bonwetsch Festschr. 1918, 13ff; JBlinzler, Jes. u. s.

Acc. to the gospels this woman, one of Jesus’ most faithful followers, was cured by Jesus of possession by seven hostile spirits (Mk 16:9; Lk 8:2). She appears in the Passion Narrative w. women companions; also in the synoptic account of Easter morning. In J she is the only one mentioned at the grave, and sees the resurrected Lord (likew. in the long ending of Mk). Later ecclesiastical gossip identified her without warrant w. the sinful woman who anointed Jesus in the house of the Pharisee (Lk 7:37, 39).

Μ.—JMackay, The Other M.: ET 40, 1929, 319–21); Mk 15:40, 47; 16:1; Lk 24:10. She was one of the followers of Jesus present as a spectator at the events on Golgotha. Hence she could be identical with

④ Μαρία (v.l. Μαριάμ) ἡ τοῦ Κλωπᾶ Μ., the wife of Clopas J 19:25.

⑤ Mary, acc. to Lk 10:39, 42 sister of Martha, acc. to J 11:1f, 19f, 28, 31f, 45; 12:3 also sister of Lazarus, resident in Bethany.

⑥ the mother of John Mark, owner of a house in Jerusalem (οἰκία τῆς Μαρίας), who placed it at the disposal of Christians for meetings Ac 12:12.

⑦ an otherw. unknown Christian, probably of Jewish descent (yet Μαρία appears in CB I/2, 557f nos. 439 and 440 as the fem. form of the Roman name Marius), who is greeted Ro 16:6 (ἀσπάσασθε Μαρίαν; v.l. Μαριάμ [as early as P⁴⁶]), w. the additional note that she rendered outstanding service to the receivers of the letter.—EDNT. M-M.

χρυσόλιθος, ου, ὁ prob. a yellowish precious stone, yellow topaz, chrysolite (Diod S 2, 52, 3; PLond III, 928, 15 p. 191 [III A.D.]; Ex 28:20; 36:20; Ezk 28:13; Jos., Bell, 5, 234, Ant. 3, 168); the ancients (Pliny, NH 37, 42) applied the term to yellow quartz or yellow topaz; the greenish mineral associated with the loanword ‘chrysolite’ and known as ‘olivine’ suggests a more precise definition than the data warrant Rv 21:20.—Lit. s.v. ἀμέθυστος.—ISBE ’88, IV 628f.

② a mandate or ordinance, command

ⓐ of commands by pers. in high position (JRS 66 ’76, 106–31, line 31 [18–19 A.D.] by a legate of Tiberius): father (Tob 4:19) Lk 15:29. Apostles Ac 17:15; Col 4:10. Judean-type (s.
