ⓓ Of festive days: ἡ ἡμέρα τῶν σαββάτων (σάββατον 1bβ) or τοῦ σαββάτου (σάββ. 1a) Lk 4:16; 13:14b, 16; J 19:31; Ac 13:14 (Just., D. 27, 5). ἡ ἡμέρα or αἱ ἡμέραι τ. ἀζύμων Lk 22:7; Ac 12:3; 20:6. ἡ ἡμέρα τ. πεντηκοστῆς Ac 2:1; 20:16. μεγάλη ἡμέρα the great day (of atonement) PtK 2 p. 14, 29. In gen. of a Judean festival GJs 1:2; 2:2 (the author no longer has a clear understanding of the precise festival signified by the term; s. Amann and deStrycker on 1:2). ἡ κυριακὴ ἡμέρα the Lord’s Day, Sunday Rv 1:10 (cp. Just. A I, 67, 7 τὴν … τοῦ ἡλίου ἡμέραν). Festive days are spoken of in the foll. passages: ὸ̔ς μὲν κρίνει ἡμέραν παρʼ ἡμέραν, ὸ̔ς δὲ κρίνει πᾶσαν ἡμέραν one person considers one day better than another, another considers every day good Ro 14:5. φρονεῖν τ. ἡμέραν concern oneself w. (= observe) the day vs. 6. ἡμέρας παρατηρεῖσθαι observe days Gal 4:10.—Used w. gen. to denote what happens or is to be done on the day in question ἡμ. τοῦ ἁγνισμοῦ Ac 21:26. τ. ἐνταφιασμοῦ day of burial J 12:7. ἕως ἡμέρας ἀναδείξεως αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὸν Ἰσραήλ Lk 1:80 (s. ἀνάδειξις).

ⓔ OT terminology is reflected in the expr. fulfilling of the days (Ex 7:25; 1 Ch 17:11; Tob 10:1b; cp. מָלֵא) ἐπλήσθησαν αἱ ἡμ. τῆς λειτουργίας αὐτοῦ the days of his service came to an end Lk 1:23. ἐπλήσθησαν ἡμ. ὀκτὼ τοῦ περιτεμεῖν αὐτόν the eighth day, on which he was to be circumcised, had come 2:21; cp. vs. 22. S. ἐκπλήρωσις, συμπληρόω, συντελέω, τελέω, τελειόω. The Hebr. has also furnished the expr. ἡμέρᾳ καὶ ἡμέρᾳ day after day (Esth 3:4 יוֹם וָיוֹם=LXX καθʼ ἑκάστην ἡμέραν; יוֹם יוֹם Ps 68:20=LXX 67:20 ἡμέραν καθʼ ἡμέραν) 2 Cor 4:16; GJs 6:1.—ἡμέραν ἐξ ἡμέρας (rather oft. in the OT for various Hebr. expressions, but also in Henioch. Com. 5, 13 K.) day after day 2 Pt 2:8; prophetic quot. of unknown origin 2 Cl 11:2. ἡμέρᾳ ἀφʼ ἡμέρας GJs 12:3.

③ a day appointed for very special purposes, day (UPZ 66, 5 [153 B.C.] ἡ ἡμ.=the wedding day; ins in ÖJh 64, ’95, p. 74 of a commemorative day for the founder of Ephesus τῇ τοῦ Ἀνδρόκλου ἡμέρᾳ), e.g. of childbirth J 16:21 v.l.

ⓐ τακτῇ ἡμέρᾳ Ac 12:21. ἡμέραν τάξασθαι (Polyb. 18, 19, 1) 28:23. στῆσαι (Dionys. Hal. 6, 48) 17:31. ὁρίζειν (Polyb., Dionys. Hal.; Epict., Ench. 51, 1) Hb 4:7; Hv 2, 2, 5. Of the day of the census (s. Lk 2:1) αὕτη ἡ ἡμέρα κυρίου GJs 17:1. ἐν ἡμέρᾳ, ᾗ ἔμελλεν θηριομαχῖν ὁ Παῦλος AcPl Ha 3, 9.

ⓑ esp. of a day of judgment, fixed by a judge

α. ἀνθρωπίνη ἡμ. a day appointed by a human court 1 Cor 4:3 (cp. the ins on a coin amulet [II/III A.D.] where these words are transl. ‘human judgment’ by CBonner, HTR 43, ’50, 165–68). This expr. is formed on the basis of ἡμ. as designating

β. the day of God’s final judgment (s. ὥρα 3). ᾗ ἡμ. ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἀποκαλύπτεται the day on which the Human One (Son of Man) reveals himself Lk 17:30; ἡ τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμ. 2 Pt 3:12. ἡ ἡμέρα ἡ μεγάλη τοῦ θεοῦ τ. παντοκράτορος Rv 16:14. ἡμ. κυρίου (Jo 1:15; 2:1, 11; Is 13:6, 9 al.) occurring only once in the NT of the day of God, the Lord, in an OT quot. πρὶν ἐλθεῖν ἡμ. κυρίου τ. μεγάλην κ. ἐπιφανῆ Ac 2:20 (Jo 3:4; cp. JosAs 14:2). Otherw. Jesus Christ is the Lord of this day: 1 Cor 5:5; 1 Th 5:2 (P-ÉLangevin, Jesus Seigneur, ’67, 107–67; GHolland, SBLSP 24, ’85, 327–41); 2 Th 2:2; 2 Pt 3:10. He is oft. mentioned by name or otherw. clearly designated, e.g. as υἱὸς τ. ἀνθρώπου, Lk 17:24; 1 Cor 1:8; 2 Cor 1:14; Phil 1:6, 10; 2:16. ἡ ἐσχάτη ἡμ. the last day (of this age) (s. ἔσχατος 2b) J 6:39f, 44, 54; 11:24; 12:48; Hv 2, 2, 5. ἡμ.

Ἰ. the day on which … Ro 2:16 (RBultmann, TLZ 72, ’47, 200f considers this a gloss). ἡμ. ὀργῆς καὶ ἀποκαλύψεως δικαιοκρισίας τοῦ θεοῦ 2:5 (ἡμ. ὀργῆς as Zeph 1:15, 18; 2:3; Ezk 7:19 v.l.; cp. Rv 6:17). ἡ ἡμ. ἡ μεγάλη (Jer 37:7; Mal 3:22) Rv 6:17; 16:14. ἡμ. μεγάλη καὶ θαυμαστή B 6:4. ἡμ. ἀπολυτρώσεως Eph 4:30. ἡμ. ἐπισκοπῆς (s. ἐπισκοπή 1a and b) 1 Pt 2:12. ἡμ. ἀνταποδόσεως B 14:9 (Is 61:2); ἐκείνη ἡ ἡμ.

Jer 12:3; En 16:1) Js 5:5 belongs here (s. σφαγή). Abs. ἡμ. 1 Cor 3:13; Hb 10:25; B 7:9; 21:3; cp. 1 Th 5:4.—ἡμέρα αἰῶνος (Sir 18:10) day of eternity 2 Pt 3:18 is also eschatological in mng.; it means the day on which eternity commences, or the day which itself constitutes eternity. In the latter case the pass. would belong to the next section.

④ an extended period, time (like יוֹם, but not unknown among the Greeks: Soph., Aj. 131; 623; Eur., Ion 720; Aristot., Rhet. 2, 13, 1389b, 33f; PAmh 30, 43 [II B.C.] ἡμέρας αἰτοῦσα=‘she asked for time’, or ‘a respite’)

     ♦ Наш замполит, капитан Сазонов, - типичный замполит, тупой, обрюзгший, с красной бычьей шеей и глазами навыкате, - был особенно ревнив... А она [его жена] - молоденькая, хрупкая, изящная, совсем ему не пара... (Буковский 1). Captain Sazonov, a typical commissar - stupid, flabby, with a red bull neck and bulging eyes-was the most jealous of all...She [his wife]-youthful, fragile, graceful-seemed not at all the right match for him.. (1a)

     ♦ [Марья Андреевна:] Я искала любви, вы - интриги, побед. Мы с вами не пара (Островский 1). [М. А:] I was looking for love, and you-for intrigues and conquests. You and I are no match, no match at all (1a).

     ♦ "Можете судить потому, до какой степени ее бедствия доходили, что она [Катерина Ивановна], образованная и воспитанная в фамилии известной, за меня согласилась пойти! Но пошла! Плача и рыдая, и руки ломая-пошла! Ибо некуда было идти"... Раскольникову [Катерина Ивановна] показалась лет тридцати, и действительно была не пара Мармеладову (Достоевский 3). "You can judge the degree of her privations from the fact that she [Katerina Ivanovna], so educated and cultivated and from a well-known family, consented to marry me! But she did! Weeping and sobbing and wringing her hands-she married me! For there was nowhere else to go."...She seemed to Raskolnikov to be about thirty, and truly was no mate for Marmeladov... (3a).

     ♦ "Я не богат, не чиновен, да и по летам совсем ему не пара..." (Лермонтов 1). "I am not rich, I don't hold high rank, and I'm certainly not his equal in years..." (Id).

     ♦ На взгляд он был человек видный; черты лица его были не лишены приятности, но в эту приятность, казалось, чересчур было передано сахару... (Гоголь 3). In appearance he was an impressive-looking man, his features were rather pleasant, but this pleasantness, one could not help feeling, had much too much sugar in it... (3a).

2. на глаз чей, кого. Also: НА ГЛАЗ <-a> obs [the resulting PrepP is sent adv (usu. parenth)]

     ♦ И тут Абесаломон Нартович нам выдал, на мой взгляд, хорошую новеллу (Искандер 4). At this point Abesalomon Nartovich produced what to my mind was a good short story (4a).

     ♦ Она сильно изменилась в лице, похудела и пожелтела, хотя вот уже почти две недели как могла выходить со двора. Но, на взгляд Алеши, лицо её стало как бы еще привлекательнее, и он любил, входя к ней, встречать ее взгляд (Достоевский 2). Her face was greatly changed, she had become thin and sallow, though for almost two weeks she had already been able to go out. But in Alyosha's opinion her face had become even more attractive, as it were, and he loved meeting her eyes when he entered her room (2a).

     ♦ В тридцать шестом году он рассорился с отцом - строгим, деспотичным, не желавшим мириться с кинематографическими, на его взгляд несерьёзными, увлечениями сына... (Некрасов 1). In 1936 he had quarreled with his father, who was strict, despotic, and did not wish to countenance his son's frivolous (as he saw it) enthusiasm for the movies.. (1a).

     ♦ [В старину,] по сравнению с позднейшей убористой печатью, на странице помещалось мало знаков. Маленькая, на наш взгляд, повестушка растягивалась на волюм... (Терц 3). Compared to the very close print of a later age, [in the old days] there were fewer letters to a page. A story which we would now consider short filled a whole volume... (3a).
