6 ὑπερβολή
ὑπερβολή, ῆς, ἡ (ὑπερβάλλω; since Hdt. 8, 112, 4; ins, pap; TestSol 10:2 P; Ath.) state of exceeding to an extraordinary degree a point on a scale of extent (the context indicating whether in a good or a bad sense), excess, extraordinary quality/character w. gen. of thing (Diod S 4, 52, 2 εὐσεβείας ὑπερβολή; Epict. 4, 1, 17 ὑπ. τυραννίδος; Dio Chrys. 14 [31], 117; 123; Philo; Jos., Bell. 6, 373, Ant. 1, 234; 13, 244) ἡ ὑπ. τῆς δυνάμεως the extraordinary (quality of the) power 2 Cor 4:7. ἡ ὑπ. τῶν ἀποκαλύψεων the extraordinary revelations 12:7. ἡ ὑπ. τῆς ἀγαθότητος 2 Cl 13:4 (cp. Simplicius In Epict. p. 43, 9 Düb. ὑπ. τῆς θείας ἀγαθότητος; Ael. Aristid. 39 p. 743 D.: ὑπ. φαυλότητος).—καθʼ ὑπερβολήν to an extraordinary degree, beyond measure, utterly (Soph., Oed. R. 1195; Isocr. 5, 11; Polyb. 3, 92, 10; Diod S 2, 16, 2; 17, 47; 19, 86, 3; PTebt 23, 4; 4, 25; PRein 7, 4 [all three II B.C.]; 4 Macc 3:18) w. verbs 2 Cor 1:8 (w. ὑπὲρ δύναμιν); Gal 1:13; B 1:2; w. an adj. καθʼ ὑπ. ἁμαρτωλός sinful in the extreme Ro 7:13; w. a noun as a kind of adj. ἔτι καθʼ ὑπερβολὴν ὁδὸν δείκνυμι I will show (you) a far better way 1 Cor 12:31; in wordplay beside εἰς ὑπερβολήν (Diod S 14, 48, 2; Aelian, VH 12, 1; Vi.

7 μερίς
μερίς, ίδος, ἡ (s. μερίζω and three next entries; Antiphon, Thu.+; ins, pap, LXX, TestSol; TestJob 38:2; 41:5; Test12Patr; Philo; Jos., Ant. 11, 292, Vi. 36; Just.).① a portion of a whole that has been divided, part (Pla., Soph. p. 266a; Demetr.: 722 Fgm. 1, 14 Jac.; Diod S 15, 31, 2; 15, 64, 1 [where comparison with 15, 63, 4 τέτταρα μέρη … ἡ πρώτη μερίς shows that it is not necessary to assume that there is a difference in the meanings of these word-forms]. In ins and pap oft.=district: OGI 177, 9; 179, 8; PPetr III, 32 recto, 3 τῆς Θεμίστου μερίδος; BGU 975, 6 [45 A.D.]; PTebt 302, 4; 315, 13; Diod S 1, 54, 3; Josh 18:6). The wording of Ac 16:12 v.l in describing Philippi ἥτις ἐστὶν πρώτη τῆς μερίδος Μακεδονίας πόλις (vv.ll., among others, πρ. τῆς μερ. τῆς Μακ.; πρ. τῆς Μακ.) is difficult because of τῆς μερίδος.The transl. leading city of the district of Macedonia (e.g. Beyer, Steinmann, Bauernfeind, NRSV) is tolerable only through lack of a better one. As far as the form is concerned, the article is lacking w. πρώτη, and as far as subject matter goes, Philippi was not the capital city (which πρώτη means in such a context: Ps.-Scylax, Peripl. 35 [BFabricius 1878]; schol. on Pind., O. 8, 1h; cp. 6, 144g; Eunap. 7; 96; Procop., Aedif. 5, 4, 18 μητρόπολις … οὕτω πόλιν τ. πρώτην τοῦ ἔθνους καλοῦσι Ῥωμαῖοι) either of the province of Macedonia or of any of its districts. The Nestle text follows Blass, who favored the conjecture of Johannes Clericus (LeClerc), and reads πρώτη[ς] μερίδος τῆς Μακεδονίας of the first district of Macedonia, w. ref. to the fact that the Romans (Livy 45, 29) divided Macedonia into four μερίδες=districts in 167 B.C. (so also Hoennicke, Preuschen, Wlh., Zahn; Field, Notes 124; EHaupt, Gefangenschaftsbriefe7 1902, 83f; Belser; Zürcher Bibel ’31; Haenchen ad loc; RBorger, TRu 52, ’87, 37f. On the textual variants, s. Metzger, Textual Commentary ad loc. S. also AClark and JLarsen s.v. κεφαλή 2b, end.—If the restoration of the apparently damaged text should result in a wording that would make it possible for πρώτη to refer to the progress of a journey, we might compare Arrian, Anab. 4, 23, 3 ἡ πρώτη καθʼ ὁδὸν πόλις; Appian, Bell. Civ. 2, 35 §137 Ariminum ἐστὶν Ἰταλίας πρώτη [i.e., πόλις] μετὰ τὴν Γαλατίαν=the first city in Italy after [leaving] Gaul; Ps.-Scylax §67: from Thessaly the πρώτη πόλις Μακεδονίας is Ἡράκλειον.—Linguistically πρ. πόλ. can, of course, be understood of time as well, and can mean the first city in connection with which someth. happens [Diod S 12, 67, 2 Acanthus was the first city, πρ. πόλ., to revolt from Athens]).② share, portion (Demosth. 43, 82; Plut., Ages. 17, 5; Lucian, De Merc. Cond. 26; Vett. Val. 345, 16; SIG 1013, 4; BGU 996 III, 1; PLond III, 880, 18ff p. 9 [113 B.C.]; POxy 1482, 21; LXX) τὴν ἀγαθὴν μ. ἐκλέγεσθαι choose the better portion Lk 10:42 (fig., of food? Cp.

NT ’46, 65). μ. κυρίου the Lord’s portion 1 Cl 29:2 (Dt 32:9); cp. 30:1. τίς μερὶς πιστῷ μετὰ ἀπίστου; what has a believer in common with an unbeliever? (i.e., with ref. to the same thing; on μετά s. below) 2 Cor 6:15. Sim. μετὰ μοιχῶν τὴν μερίδα σου ἐτίθεις you cast your lot w. adulterers 1 Cl 35:8 (Ps 49:18). οὐκ ἔστιν σοι μ. οὐδὲ κλῆρος ἐν τῷ λόγῳ τούτῳ you have neither share nor lot in this matter Ac 8:21 (cp.

8 κύκλῳ
κύκλῳ dat. (of κύκλος) of place, fixed as an adv. (B-D-F §199; Rob. 295f; 644) ‘around, all around’, lit. ‘in a circle’ (Hom.+).① pert. to encirclement, around as adv. (Jos., Ant. 14, 418; 15, 337) κ. περιτειχίζειν MPol 15:2. πόλις περιτετειχισμένη κύκλῳ Hm 12, 9, 5. οἱ περὶ αὐτὸν κύκλῳ καθήμενοι Mk 3:34 (cp. 1 Esdr 4:11 and κύκλῳ περί τι Hdt. 1, 185; Pla., Phd. 111c; EpArist 63).—Sim. used as prep. w. gen. (X., Cyr. 4, 5, 5; Polyb. 4, 21, 9; OGI 455, 12; CPR I, 42, 10; PFay 110, 7; PTebt 342, 26; Gen 35:5; Ex 7:24; 16:13 al.; En 14:11; OdeSol 11:16; TestAbr A 15 p. 95, 22 [Stone p. 38] and B 8 p. 112, 23 [St. p. 72]) κ. τοῦ θρόνου around the throne Rv 4:6; 5:11 (s. κυκλόθεν 2 end); 7:11. κ. τοῦ πύργου around the tower Hv 3, 2, 8; 3, 4, 2; 3, 8, 2; Hs 9, 7, 3; 9, 9, 6; 9, 11, 4; κ. τοῦ πεδίου around the plain 9, 1, 4; cp. τὰ κ. τοῦ πύργου 9, 7, 6; 9, 10, 1f; κ. τῆς πύλης around the gate 9, 2, 3; 9, 3, 1; 9, 4, 1; around Christ 9, 6, 2.② pert. to all directions from a point of reference, around, as adv. περιῆγεν τ. κώμας κ. he went around among the villages Mk 6:6.—Sim. preceded by the art., and used as an adj. around, nearby (X., Cyr. 7, 2, 23; Arrian, Anab. 6, 15, 7 τὰ κύκλῳ ἔθνη; Bar 2:4b; 2 Macc 4:32 αἱ κ. πόλεις TestJob 30:5) εἰς τοὺς κ. ἀγρούς into the farms nearby Mk 6:36. εἰς τὰς κ. κώμας into the villages around here Lk 9:12.③ pert. to completion of a circuit, around, as adv. ἀπὸ Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ κύκλῳ Ro 15:19 (AGeyser, Un Essai d’Explication de Ro 15:19, NTS 6, ’60, 156–59) is either (beginning) from Jerusalem and its environs (BWeiss) or prob. better beginning from Jerus. and traveling around (describing a circle) (Zahn, Ltzm., Sickenberger, Althaus). This avoids giving the impression that Paul traveled in a straight line, and agrees better w. the comprehensive nature of his activity (cp. PLond III, 981, 8–11 p. 242 [IV A.D.] ἡ εὐφημία σου περιεκύκλωσεν τ. κόσμον ὅλον=‘travel about in’. Maximus Tyr. 25, 1c Ἀνάχαρσις περιῄει τὴν Ἑλλάδα ἐν κύκλῳ). Perhaps it would be better to render κύκλῳ with in an arc or curve (Appian, Mithrid. 101 §467: Mithridates, on his march from Dioscurias on the east shore of the Black Sea wishes to go around τὸν Πόντον ὅλον ἐν κύκλῳ=the whole Black Sea in a curved path, as far as Lake Maeotis=the Sea of Azov).—περιάγειν κύκλῳ τοῦ πύργου Hs 9, 11, 4f.—See B. 905.

17 ἄνευ
Grammatical information: adv.Meaning: `far from, without' (Il.).Dialectal forms: ἄνευν (Epidauros), ἄνευς (Olympia), ἄνις (Megara ap. Ar., cf. χωρίς), cf. Schwyzer-Debrunner 535: 4a.Etymology: No exact correspondent. ἄνευ looks like an old locative of an u-stem. One compares Germanic forms, Goth. inu `without' (\< *ĕnu), OHG ānu id. (\< * ēnu), but this cannot explain the Greek ἀ-. (Skt. ánu `along' does not fit the meaning.) Better Skt. sanu-tár `away, off, aside' (* sen(H)u- or * snHu-?), Lat. sine `without' \<* seni \< * snh₁-i, Toch. A sne, B snai (* snh-ei). The Greek form prob. from * snh₁-eu \> * saneu. In this case ἄνευ must be a psilotic form. Wackernagel Symb. phil. Danielsson 390 A. 1. Prob. cognate with ἄτερ (s.v.), which can only be *sn̥-, without laryngeal.Page in Frisk: 1,106Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > ἄνευ

18 λιάζομαι
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `bend, incline, shrink, recoil, sink' (Il.); rare a. late act. forms (cf. Wackernagel Unt. 131) λιάζω (Lyc., H.), λιάσαι (H.), λίασσε v. l. Ψ 879 for λίασθεν; nasalpresent λίναμαι τρέπομαι H. (cf. below), verbal adj. ἀλίαστος `not to be turned aside, undaubted, obstinate, incessant' (Il., Hes.; on the meaning Erbse Glotta 32, 236ff.).Other forms: aor. λιασθῆναιOrigin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: To the disyllabic passive aorist λια-σ-θῆναι (with anal. - σ-) belonged of old a nasalpresent λί-ν-α-μαι; as innoavtions arose the hapax λίασσε and esp. the present λιάζομαι (cf. Schwyzer 761, 693 and 734). - The not very outspoken meaning, which may have changed through literary influence (s. Leumann Hom. Wörter 208 f.), leaves much room for etymological speculation and makes certain interpretation difficult. The presens λίναμαι (see Wackernagel Unt. 206 n. 1 on the meaning) agrees formally with Skt. lināti (gramm.) `lean against', also `hide oneself, disappear', and Celt., OIr. lenaid `follow' (Wackernagel l.c.); the meaning is far away however. Semantically better fits Germ., e.g. Goth. af-linnan ' ἀποχωρεῖν', OHG bi-linnan `yield, stop, leave off' with - nn- from -nu̯- (Osthoff MU 4, 46). All verbs including Lat. linō `smear' are taken together by W.-Hofmann s. v. Further see Bq and WP. 2, 387 f., Pok. 661 f. with even more dubious connections. Cf. also ἐλινύω and λιμός.Page in Frisk: 2,119Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > λιάζομαι

19 σπάθη
Grammatical information: f.Meaning: Des. of several flat and oblong oblects, e.g. `tool of a weaver for striking the threads of the woof home, blade (of a sword), blade of an oar, spatula, flat rib (shoulder-blade?), spathe, espec. of the palm, stalk of the palm leaf, harroweeder' (Alc., IA.).Derivatives: 1. σπαθ-ίς, - ίδος f. `spatula, garment of closely-woven cloth' (com., inscr.). 2. - ίας κτείς `flat rib' (Opp.). 3. - ίτης m. `palm wine' (Alex. Trall.; Redard 99). 4. - ινα pl. `garments' (Aq.), - ίνης m. `young deer', from the form of the horns (H., Eust., sch.; cf. ἐλαφίνης a. o.). 5. - άριος m. `guard (equipped with a σ.)' (Lyd., Cappadoc. inscr.), - αρία f. `fighting contest' (EM), - αρικόν n. `thin upper garment' (Sm.). 6. - άω, rarely w. δια-, ἐν-, κατα-, `to strike with a σ., to seal up, to hatch, to dissipate, to waste' (Ar., D., hell. a. late) with - ημα, - ησις, - ητός. 7. - ίζω ( περι- a. o.) `to stir up with a spatula' (Opp.) with - ίσματα σπαδονίσματα H.Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: Except for the stemformation σπάθη has been connected with the Germ. word for `spade', OS spado m., OE spade, spadu f., NHG. Spaten m., PGm. * spað-an, - ōn-, but the Greek word cannot be connected as the Germ. word had an ē (which implies a h₁, which would have given Gr. ε; see Pok. 980). Untenable on σπάθη Specht Ursprung 256 (θ from IE th). Hitt. išpatar `spear?, sprong ?' should better remain far; s. Kronasser 1, 283 w. lit. Further connection with a verb `draw in length' (s. σπάω; Persson Beitr. 1, 405ff.) seems possible (reserved WP. 2, 652f.). Lat. LW [loanword] spada, spatha, spatula s.

20 στάζω
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `to let drip (in), to shed', intr. `to drip' (posthom.).Other forms: Aor. στάξαι (Il.), fut. στάξω (Pi. etc.), aor. pass. σταχθῆναι (Hp.), σταγῆναι (Dsc.), perf. pass. ἔστακται (Od.).Derivatives: 1. σταγ-ών, - όνος f. `drop' (trag., Hp., middl. com., hell. a. late) with - ονίας, - ονῖτις, - ονιαῖος (late); also στάγ-ες pl. (A. R. 4, 626); prob. backformation, cf. below. 2. - ετός m. `id.' (Aq.; like ὑετός a.o.). 3. - μα ( ἐπί- στάζω) n. `the dripping, the drop, aromatic oil' (A., Gal., pap. a. o.), ἐπι-, κατα-σταγμός m. `the nose-dripping, sniffing' (late medic.). 4. στάξις ( ἀπό-κατά- στάζω) f. `the dripping', esp. of blood from the nose (Hp., Gal.). 5. στακτός `dripping' (IA.), - τή f. `myrrh-oil' (Antiph., Plb. a.o.), - τά n. pl. `resins' (medic.); ἔνστακτον n. `the dripping in' (Gal.); στα\<κ\> τικόν πεμμάτιον πλακουντοειδές. ἄλλοι δε ἀγγεῖα διυλίζοντα Νειλῶον ὕδωρ H. 6. ἐπι-στάκτης m. `woolen thread for oil-dripping' (late medic.); στακτερία (leg. - τηρία) f. `bottle for myrrh-oil' (pap. VI -- VIIp). 7. στάγ-δην `drop by drop' (Hp., Aret.). 8. Στάζουσα f. source in Sicyon (Krahe Beitr. z. Namenforsch. 2, 230).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: The present στάζω can stand for *σταγ-ι̯ω and thus be a denominative of στάγ-ες. As however the relatively late ἅπ. λεγ. στάγ-ες is prob. a backformation from σταγ-όνες (Schwyzer 424) and the last relates to στάζω as τρυγών to primary τρύζω, στάζω too might be primary; to these came the other forms. -- The Latin and Celtic words compared give no indication for the prehistory of στάζω. Lat. stāgnum `through inundation arosen artificial water, sea, pool, pond' and OBret. staer `river, brook' (from * stag-rā) are rather far away because of the deviant meaning; semant. better connectable, but phonetically unclear is Welsh taen `conspersio' (IE * stagnā ?). WP. 2, 612, Pok. 1010, W.-Hofmann s. 1. stāgnum w. lit. Older lit. also in Bq.Page in Frisk: 2,774Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > στάζω
