MPol 7:1b (s. ὀψέ 1 and 2; Demosth. 21, 84; Polyb. 3, 83, 7 ὀψὲ τῆς ὥρας). ὀψίας οὔσης τῆς ὥρας Mk 11:11 (ὄψιος 1). ὥρα πολλή late hour (Polyb. 5, 8, 3; Dionys.

Phlm 15 ἵνα αἰώνιον αὐτὸν ἀπέχῃς that you might have him back forever (opp. χωρίζεσθαι πρὸς ὥραν). Some would here put the difficult impers. ἀπέχει in the sense the account is closed Mk 14:41; s. JdeZwaan, Exp. 6th ser., 12, 1905, 459–72, who takes the informant of vs. 42 as the subj. he has received the money. S. 2 and 3.② to meet the need of the moment, to suffice, be enough, Vulg. has for ἀπέχει Mk 14:41 ‘sufficit’ it is enough, which is supported by some comparatively late evidence (Anacreontea Carmina 16, 33 [Preis., West, Campbell]; PStras 4, 19 note [550 A.D.]; PLond 1343, 38 [709 A.D.] dub. l.) and is followed in numerous translations, incl. REV, NRSV (‘Enough!’); that the expression is not found in this sense in other lit. is not surprising, for it is a colloquialism that emerges, as in the case of the Anacreontea, in dramatic statement. In this instance, as w. ἀπελπίζω (Lk 6:35) q.v., context is a strong semantic determinant.③ The rather freq. expr. οὐδὲν ἀπέχει=‘nothing hinders’ (Pla., Cra. 23 p. 407b; Plut., Mor. 433a; 680e) would suggest for ἀπέχει in Mk 14:41 that is a hindrance (referring to the extreme drowsiness of the disciples at the decisive moment).

Smyrn. 14, 434 οὔτʼ ἔτι σεῖο κεκλήσομαι=I do not wish any longer to be yours, i.e. your daughter).
