α. of pers.

(Hdt. 2, 63 ἐκ τ. τρωμάτων) Rv 8:11; ὑπὸ τοῦ πλήθους τῆς χαλάζης AcPl Ha 5, 10. The extraordinary expr. ἀ. εἰς τὸ αὐτοῦ (i.e. Jesus’) πάθος may be transl. die in order to share his experience (=his death; s. JKleist, note ad loc.) IMg 5:2.

β. of animals and plants ἀ. ἐν τοῖς ὕδασιν drown Mt 8:32. Of grains of wheat placed in the ground decay J 12:24; 1 Cor 15:36; w. regard to what is being illustrated, this is called dying. Of trees die Jd 12. fig.

ⓑ of death on a transcendent level

α. of losing the ultimate, eternal life Ro 8:13; Rv 3:2. So almost always in J: 6:50, 58; 8:21, 24; 11:26 al. ἡ ἁμαρτία ἀνέζησεν, ἐγὼ δὲ ἀπέθανον sin came back to life, and I died Ro 7:9, 10.

Cp. μὴ εἰδό[τες τὴν δια]φ[ο]ρὰν τα[ύτην ἀπέ]θά̣νο̣ν not recognizing this distinction (between the transitory and the intransitory), they died Ox 1081, 22–24 (=SJCh 89, 19f) as read by Till p. 218 app.

β. of mystical death with Christ ἀπεθάνομεν σὺν Χριστῷ Ro 6:8 (EKlaar, ZNW 59, ’68, 131–34). Cp. 2 Cor 5:14; Col 3:3.

γ. w. dat. of pers. or thing fr. which one is separated by death, however death may be understood: τ. θεῷ Hs 8, 6, 4; 9, 28, 5; νόμῳ Gal 2:19; τ. ἁμαρτίᾳ Ro 6:2; ἀ. (τούτῳ) ἐν ᾧ κατειχόμεθα dead to that which held us captive 7:6 (for the dative constr. cp.

② the prospect of death or realization of mortality be about to die, face death, be mortal (Phalaris, Ep. 52 ἀποθνῄσκοντες=be in danger of death; Philosoph. Max 495, 125 ὁ τῶν ἀσώτων βίος ὥσπερ καθʼ ἡμέραν ἀποθνῄσκων ἐκφέρεται; Athen. 12, 552b καθʼ ἑκάστην ἡμέραν ἀποθνῄσκειν; Seneca, Ep. 24, 20 (cotidie morimur); Philo, In Flacc. 175; PGiss 17, 9 ἀποθνῄσκομεν ὅτι οὐ βλέπομέν σε καθʼ ἡμέραν) καθʼ ἡμέραν ἀ.
