CSpicq, RB 58, ’51, 482–84 [difft. idem, Lexique s.v. δίστομο], but the chief objections to such renderings are the absence of references in ancient medical writers to a double-edged surgical instrument and their preference for the diminutive μαχαίριον in connection w. such instruments).② in various images μ. sword stands forⓐ violent death Ro 8:35ⓑ for war (Gen 31:26; SibOr 8, 120.—Opp. εἰρήνη.)

3 ῥομφαία
ῥομφαία, ας, ἡ ‘a large and broad sword’ used by non-Greek-speaking peoples, esp. the Thracians (Phylarch. [III B.C.]: 81 Fgm. 57 Jac.; Plut., Aemil. 264 [18, 5]; Hesychius; Suda). In our lit. simply sword (so also LXX; pseudepigr.; Jos., Bell. 6, 289, Ant. 6, 254; 7, 299;—In Philo [like ApcMos] always of the angel’s flaming sword after Gen 3:24) Lk 21:24 v.l.; Rv 2:16; 6:8; 19:15, 21. ῥ. δίστομος καὶ ὀξεῖα a sharp and double-edged sword Rv 2:12; cp. 1:16. φείδεσθαι τῆς ψυχῆς τινος ἀπὸ ῥ. spare someone’s life from the sword (so that he may die on the cross) B 5:13 (Ps 21:21).

SibOr 3, 316; Ezk 14:17.—Artem. 1, 41 p. 39, 19 τιτρώσκεσθαι κατὰ τὸ στῆθος means ‘receive sad news’).—DELG. M-M. TW. -
4 ξίφος
Grammatical information: n.Meaning: `sword with straight double-edged balde' (Il.; see Trümpy Fachausdrücke 60ff.); metaph. of the ξίφος- like bone of the cuttle-fish (Arist.), as plantname = ξιφίον (Thphr.); also σκίφος (sch., EM, H.); on the anlaut Schwyzer 266, Heubeck Würzb. Jb. 4, 201. Myk. qi-si-pe-e (du., Heubeck Minos 6, 55f.)?Compounds: As 1. member a.o. in ξιφη-φόρος `sword-bearing' (A., E.) with analog. - η- (Schwyzer 440); on σκιφα-τόμος s. below. As 2. member in ἄ-ξιφος `swordess' (Lyc., A. D.), adv. ἀξιφ-εί (Hdn.).Derivatives: 1. ξιφίδιον dimin. (Ar., Th.), also plantname = σπαργάνιον, `swodgrass' (Ps.-Dsc.; Strömberg Pfl.n. 44); 2. ξιφύδριον ( σκιφ- Epich.) name of a shell-animal (medic., H.). 3. ξιφίας ( σκιφ- Epich.) m. `swordfish' (Arist.), also name of a comet (Plin.; Scherer Gestirnnamen 107 ff.); 4. ξιφίον n. kind of swordlily, `Gladiolus segetum' (Thphr., Dsc.); 5. ξιφή-ρης `heavily armed' (E., late prose). 6. ξιφήν ὁ φέρων ξίφος Suid. 7. ξιφίνδα παίζειν = ξιφίζειν (Theognost.). 8. ξιφίζω dance a swoddance' (Cratin.), ἀποξιφίζειν ὀρχεῖσθαι ποιὰν ὄρχησιν, σκιφίζει ξιφίζει. ἔστι δε σχῆμα μαχαιρικῆς ὀρχήσεως H. From there ξιφ-ισμός (Ath., D. C.), - ισμα (Choerob., H.) `sworddance', ξιφιστύς μαχαιρομαχία, μάχη ἐκ χειρῶν H. (Benveniste Noms d'agent 74); but ξιφιστήρ m. (pap., Plu.). - ιστής H. `swordbelt' because of the meaning rather directly from ξίφος; cf. on κορυφιστήρ s. κορυφή. With prefix δια-ξιφίζομαι `fight with the sword' (Ar.), διαξιφισ-μός m. `swordbattle' (Plu.). -- Two further H.glosses: ξίφαι τὰ ἐν ταῖς ῥυκάναις δρέπανα η σιδήρια and (wit metathesis) σκιφίνιον πλέγμα ἐκ φοίνικος (after κοφίνιον a. o.); here also σκιφα-τόμος profession (Sparta Ia) ?; cf. on κίφος.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Etymology unknown; like so many weaponnnames prob. LW [loanword]. For oriental origin (Aram. sajǝfā, ārab. saifun, Egypt.. sēfet `sword') a.o. Lewy Fremdw. 176 f., Spiegelberg KZ 41, 127ff., Huber Comm. Aenip. 9, 34, Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 2, 362 f. Wrong IE etymologies in Bq (rejected). New hypothesis by Čop KZ 74, 231 f.: to Osset. äxsirf `sickle', which can go back on IE *ksibhró-. Myc. qisipee points to a labio-velar (possible also for äxsirf), which could have been lost through dissimilation with the following φ; s. Heubeck Minos 6, 55 ff. with further details and lit. On the treatment of the labio-velar cf. also Schwyzer 299. The Myc. form clearly points to Pre-Greek origin; perhaps the forms with σκιφ- also point in this direction. It is well known that Pre-Greek had labio-velars (Beekes, Pre-Greek).Page in Frisk: 2,Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ξίφος
