2 πόλις
πόλις, εως, ἡ (Hom.+. Gener. a population center in contrast to a relatively uninhabited or rural area. In the Gr-Rom. world the term gener. implied strong political associations, esp. in the sense ‘city-state’).① population center of varying size, city, town, lit. Mt 5:14; Lk 10:8, 10. Pl. Mt 11:20; Lk 5:12; 19:17, 19. ἡ πόλις the city or the town designated in the context Mt 8:33; 21:17f; 26:18; Mk 11:19; 14:13, 16; Lk 4:29a; 7:12ab; J 4:8, 28, 30; Ac 8:9; 14:4; Rv 11:13; B 16:5; AcPl Ha 4, 18; 5, 17. Likew. αἱ πόλεις Ac 16:4. ἡ πόλις the city can also be the capital city, the main city (Mayser II/2 p. 28; Jos., C. Ap. 2, 125) Ac 8:5; cp. Mk 5:14 (s. vs. 1); Lk 8:27 (s. vs. 26). ἡ πόλις ἐκείνη Mt 10:14f; Lk 9:5; 10:12; 18:3; J 4:39; Ac 8:8; Hs 9, 12, 5b. ἡ πόλ. αὕτη Mt 10:23a; Ac 4:27; 18:10; 22:3; Hs 1:3. ἔν τινι πόλει in a certain city Lk 18:2; cp. Hs 9, 12, 5a. εἰς τήνδε τὴν πόλιν Js 4:13 (s. ὅδε 2). πᾶσα πόλις Lk 10:1. αἱ πόλεις πᾶσαι Mt 9:35; Ac 8:40; cp. Mk 6:33.—πόλις (πόλεις) beside κώμη (κῶμαι) Mt 9:35; 10:11; Lk 8:1; 13:22. W. κῶμαι and ἀγροί Mk 6:56. ἡ πόλις καὶ οἱ ἀγροί 5:14; Lk 8:34. W. τόπος 10:1. In contrast to the open plain or the desert, where no cities are found Mt 14:13; Mk 1:45; 2 Cor 11:26; to the interior of a building Ac 12:10.—Used w. the gen.: to denote the region in which it is located πόλ. τῆς Γαλιλαίας Lk 1:26; 4:31. πόλ.

Cp. 23:51; Ac 19:35; EpilMosq 4; AcPl Ox 6, 20 (=Aa I 242, 1). αἱ πόλεις τοῦ Ἰσραήλ the cities in which the people of Israel live Mt 10:23b (Ἰσραήλ 2).—Rv 16:19b. ἡ πόλ. αὐτῶν Mt 22:7; Lk 4:29b.—2:39. Also w. the gen. sg. πόλ. Δαυίδ city of David 2:4b, 11; ἡ ἑαυτοῦ πολ. the person’s own town (=ancestral locale; but 2:39 Nazareth = their place of residence) 2:3.—J 1:44. Also ἡ ἰδία πόλ. (s. ἴδιος 1b) Mt 9:1; Lk 2:3 v.l.; Hs 1:2b (in imagery, s. 2 below). Pl. 1 Cl 55:1. The πόλεις ἴδιαι of the Christians Dg 5:2 are those inhabited by them alone; they are contrasted w. πόλεις Ἑλληνίδες Greek cities (cp.

Βαβυλών) 16:19a; 17:18; 18:16, 18f, 21; ἡ πόλις ἡ μεγάλη, Βαβυλὼν ἡ πόλις ἡ ἰσχυρά 18:10. On the other hand ἡ πόλ. ἡ μεγάλη 11:8 is clearly Jerusalem (as SibOr 5, 154; 226). Elsewh. Jerus. is called ἡ πόλ. ἡ ἠγαπημένη 20:9 (cp. ApcSed 8:3 πρῶτον ἠγάπησας … εἰς τὰς πόλεις τὴν Ἰερουσαλήμ); ἡ ἁγία πόλ. Mt 4:5; 27:53; Rv 11:2 (ἅγιος 1aα); πόλ. τοῦ μεγάλου βασιλέως the city of the Great King Mt 5:35 (βασιλεύς 2b). εἰς πόλιν ἄρχουσαν ὀπύσεως in the city that sponsors fornication ApcPt Rainer 4, 1 (Ja. p. 278; s. also ὄπυσις).—The name of the town or city that goes w. πόλις stands either in the epexegetic gen. (Aeschyl. et al.; also Demetr.: 722 Fgm. 1, 8 Jac. πόλιν Σικίμων) πόλεις Σοδόμων καὶ Γομόρρας 2 Pt 2:6 or in the case in which πόλις itself is found, ἐν πόλει Ἰόππῃ Ac 11:5; πόλις Λασαία 27:8. From the construction πόλεως Θυατίρων Ac 16:14 no determination of the nom. of Θυ-can be made: either πόλις Θυατίρων or πόλις Θυάτιρα (B-D-R §167, 3). W. indecl. place names Lk 2:4a, 39. πόλις λεγομένη or καλουμένη w. the name following Mt 2:23; Lk 7:11; 9:10. Cp.

ἐάν (Hom.+) fundamentally introduces a situation in which given X, Y will follow (B-D-F §31, 1; 107; 371, 4; 372, 1a; 373; Mlt. and Rob., indices)① as conj., marker of condition, with probability of activity expressed in the verb left open and thereby suited esp. for generalized statements, if (only rarely [1 Cor 6:4; 11:14, as e.g. Lucian, Vit. Auct. 11 καὶ ἰδιώτης γὰρ ἐὰν ᾖς] anywhere else than at the beg. of the subordinate clause).ⓐ used w. subjunctive to denote what is expected to occur, under certain circumstances, from a given standpoint in the present, either general or specific (B-D-F. §371, 4; Mlt-Turner 114f)α. w. pres. subj., and pres. in apodosis: ἐὰν θέλῃς δύνασαί με καθαρίσαι Mt 8:2; Mk 1:40; Lk 5:12. ἐὰν ἀγαθοποιῆτε, ποία ὑμῖν χάρις ἐστίν; 6:33. ἐὰν μαρτυρῶ, ἡ μαρτυρία μου οὐκ ἔστιν ἀληθής J 5:31 (but s. bβ below) cp. 8:16; 15:14. περιτομὴ ὠφελεῖ ἐὰν νόμον πράσσῃς Ro 2:25; cp. 13:4; 14:8; 1 Cor 13:1ff al. W. pres. subj., and aorist in apodosis: ἐὰν ὁ ποῦς σου σκανδαλίζῃ σε, ἀπόκοψον Mk 9:45; cp. vs. 47; w. fut. in apod.: ἐὰν ᾖ …, ἐπαναπαήσεται Lk 10:6; ἐὰν ὁδηγῇ, πεσοῦνται Mt 15:14.β. mostly w. aor. subj., and pres. in apodosis: ἐὰν ἀγαπήσητε, τίνα μισθὸν ἔχετε; Mt 5:46, cp. 47; 18:15ff. ἐὰν μερισθῇ, οὐ δύναται σταθῆναι Mk 3:24. ἐὰν γαμήσῃ, μοιχᾶται 10:12. ἐὰν ἀπολέσῃ, οὐχὶ ἅπτει; Lk 15:8. ἐὰν μείνητε, μαθηταί μού ἐστε J 8:31; cp. 19:12. ἐὰν χωρισθῇ, μενέτω 1 Cor 7:11; cp. vs. 39. ἐὰν φάγωμεν, περισσεύομεν 8:8. W. aor. subj., and aor. in apodosis ἐὰν εἴπωσιν, μὴ ἐξέλθητε Mt 24:26. ἐὰν ἁμάρτῃ, ἐπιτίμησον … ἐὰν μετανοήσῃ, ἄφες Lk 17:3; ἐὰν εἴπω, οὐ μὴ πιστεύσητε 22:67; cp. vs. 68. W. aor. subj., and fut. in apod. (cp. Aesop, Fab. 408b H./250 I, H-H.): ἐὰν ἀφῆτε, ἀφήσει καὶ ὑμῖν Mt 6:14. ἐὰν ἅψωμαι, σωθήσομαι 9:21. ἐὰν ἐμπέσῃ, οὐχὶ κρατήσει; 12:11; cp. 24:48, 50; 28:14; Mk 8:3; Lk 4:7; 14:34; J 15:10 al. (w. aor. opt. in apodosis Just., A II, 15, 2).γ. w. pres. and aor. subj. at the same time: ἐὰν δὲ καὶ ἀθλῇ τις ( is an athlete by profession), οὐ στεφανοῦται, ἐὰν μὴ νομίμως ἀθλήσῃ (competes acc. to the rules single or repeated action) 2 Ti 2:5.—1 Cor 14:23: ἐὰν συνέλθῃ (antecedent action) καὶ λαλῶσιν (repeated and lasting), εἰσέλθωσιν δέ (once); cp. vs. 24. ἐὰν ἔχητε πίστιν καὶ μὴ διακριθῆτε Mt 21:21.ⓑ used w. the indic. (exx. in Dssm., NB 29f [BS 201f]; B-D-F §372, 1a; Mlt. 168; Mlt-Turner 115f; Rdm.2 200; Rob. 1009f).α. w. fut. ind., in the same mng. (CIG II, 2485 ἐὰν θελήσει; pap; TestReub 4:11; TestJob 4:4 ἐὰν ἐπιχειρήσεις; B-D-F §373, 2): ἐὰν οὗτοι σιωπήσουσιν, οἱ λίθοι κράξουσιν Lk 19:40 (vv.ll. σιγήσουσιν, σιωπήσωσιν). ἐὰν μή τις ὁδηγήσει με Ac 8:31 (v.l. ὁδηγήσῃ). ἐὰν ἡμᾶς μιμήσεται …, οὐκ ἔτι ἐσμέν IMg 10:1; ἐὰν μετανοήσουσιν Hv 1, 3, 2; ἐὰν προσθήσω m 4, 3, 7; ἐὰν ἔσῃ m 5, 1, 2.β. w. pres. ind. (Ocellus [II B.C.] 5; Cyril of Scyth. p. 145, 5 ἐὰν ἔστιν; CIG II, 2485 ἐὰν βούλονται; TestJud 15:2 v.l.; Just., D. 47, 1 and 3; 67, 2) ἐὰν στήκετε ἐν κυρίῳ 1 Th 3:8 (v.l. στήκητε); IMg 5:2; Hv 3, 12, 3; ἐὰν οἴδαμεν 1J 5:15 (on this and J 5:31 [s. aα above] s. B-D-F §372, 1=B-D-R §373, 3n. 12) ἐὰν πάσχομεν Pol. 8:2.γ. w. aor. ind. In Mt 15:5=Mk 7:11, N24 accents ὠφελήθης instead of ὠφεληθῇς (N.), giving us an example of ἐάν w. aor. ind., strongly supported by B-D-F §360, 1. This constr. is rare but occasionally found in the late κοινή (Rob. 1009).ⓒ w. other particlesα. ἐὰν καί even if Gal 6:1; likew. ἐὰν δὲ καί (POxy 472 II, 7) but if 1 Cor 7:11, 28; 2 Ti 2:5. ἐὰν δὲ καὶ παρακούσῃ but if the pers. refuses to listen Mt 18:17.β. ἐὰν μή if not, unless w. pres. subj. ἐὰν δὲ μὴ ᾖ ἀξία Mt 10:13; cp. Lk 13:3; J 3:2f, 5, 27. Mostly w. aor. subj. ἐὰν μὴ περισσεύσῃ Mt 5:20; 6:15; 12:29; 18:3; 21:21; Mk 3:27; 4:22 (s. KBeyer, Semitische Syntax im NT, ’62, 131); J 4:48; 6:44; 7:51; Ro 10:15; 1 Cor 9:16; 14:6; unless, without ἐὰν μὴ αὐτὸ πίω Mt 26:42. W. fut. ἐὰν μὴ μετανοήσουσιν Rv 2:22.γ. ἐάνπερ if indeed, if only, supposing that ‘referring to still another condition (fact)’ (B-D-F §454, 2) w. pres. subj. (Pla., Ap. 12, 25b; X., Cyr. 4, 6, 8; PFay 124, 9) Hb 6:3; IRo 1:1 and aor. (Plut., Lyc. 40 [3, 2]; BGU 1141, 30) 1:2; IPol 7:1; Hb 3:6, 14 (v.l. ἐάν).δ. ἐάν τε … ἐάν τε whether … or whether (X., Cyr. 3, 3, 17, Mem. 2, 4, 6; Ael.

Also s. κἄν.② as conj., marker of the prospect of an action in a point of time coordinated with another point of time. Thus at times the mng. of ἐάν approaches closely that of ὅταν whenever, when (Is 24:13; Am 7:2; Tob 6:17 BA ἐὰν εἰσέλθῃς, cp. S ὅταν εἰς.; 4:3 BA, cp. vs. 4) 1J 2:28 (v.l. ὅταν); J 12:32 (v.l. ὅταν) 14:3; Hb 3:7 (Ps 94:7).③ marker of the possibility of any number of occurrences of the same event, ever freq. in place of ἄν (q.v.) after relatives (so Lysias 24, 18 Thalh. v.l. acc. to mss.; pap since 246 B.C.
