ἀγάπη, ης, ἡ (this term has left little trace in polytheistic Gk. lit. A sepulchral ins, prob. honoring a polytheistic army officer, who is held in ‘high esteem’ by his country [SEG VIII, 11, 6 (III A.D.)] sheds light on an ex. such as Philod., παρρ. col. 13a, 3 Oliv., but s.

SSol, also pseudepigr., Philo, Deus Imm. 69; Just., D. 93, 4. Cp. ACarr, ET 10, 1899, 321–30. Its paucity in gener. Gk. lit. may be due to a presumed colloq. flavor of the noun (but s. IPontEux I, 359, 6 as parallel to 2 Cor 8:8 below). No such stigma attached to the use of the verb ἀγαπαω (q.v.).

① the quality of warm regard for and interest in another, esteem, affection, regard, love (without limitation to very intimate relationships, and very seldom in general Greek of sexual attraction).

God is the source of love 1J 4:7, the θεὸς τῆς ἀ. 2 Cor 13:11, and therefore God is love 1J 4:8, 16. Christians, embraced by God’s love, are τέκνα ἀγάπης B 9:7; 21:9.—Of Jesus’ love J 15:9, 10a, 13 (s. MDibelius, Joh 15:13: Deissmann Festschr. 1927, 168–86); 1J 3:16.—Ro 8:35; 2 Cor 5:14; cp.

② a common meal eaten by early Christians in connection with their worship, for the purpose of fostering and expressing mutual affection and concern, fellowship meal, a love-feast (the details are not discussed in the NT, although Paul implicitly refers to it 1 Cor 11:17ff; cp.

RSchütz, ZNW 18, 1918, 224; s. ἀγαπάω 3 on J 13:1, 34). ἀγάπη ἄφθαρτος IRo 7:3. ἀγάπην ποιεῖν hold a love-feast ISm 8:2, in both pass. w. prob. ref. to the eucharist (s. ἀγαπάω 2 and 3).—Meals accompanied by religious rites and in a religious context were conducted by various social groups among the Greeks from early times (s. Bauer’s Introduction, pp. xxvii–viii, above). A scholion on Pla. 122b says of such meals among the Lacedaemonians that they were called φιλίτια, because they φιλίας συναγωγά ἐστιν.

① an auditory effect, sound, tone, noise the source of which is added in the gen.: of musical instruments (Pla., Rep. 3, 397a ὀργάνων; Eur., Tro. 127 συρίγγων; Plut., Mor. 713c ψαλτηρίου καὶ αὐλοῦ; Aristoxenus, Fgm. 6; Paus.

Of the sound caused by spoken words (Da 10:9; Just., D. 131, 2 μηδὲ μέχρι φωνῆς) ἡ φωνὴ τοῦ ἀσπασμοῦ σου Lk 1:44. φωνὴ ῥημάτων sound of words Hb 12:19. Cp. 1 Cl 27:7 (Ps 18:4). ἔσομαι φωνή I will be just a meaningless sound (in contrast to Ignatius functioning as a λόγος θεοῦ [=meaningful expression of God] if his adherents abstain from pleas in his behalf) IRo 2:1 (s. ἠχώ). Abs. of the sound made by a wail of sorrow (cp. TestJob 40:9; TestIss 1:4) Mt 2:18 (Jer 38:15). μεγάλη φωνὴ ἐγένετο ἐν τ. οὐρανῷ GPt 9:35.—Of musical instruments it is said that they φωνὴν διδόναι produce sound (in ref. to mere sonant capability in contrast to distinguishable notes) 1 Cor 14:7f.—In Rv we have ἀστραπαὶ καὶ φωναὶ καὶ βρονταί (cp. Ex 19:16) 4:5; 8:5; 11:19; 16:18 (are certain other sounds in nature thought of here in addition to thunder, as e.g. the roar of the storm? In Ex 19:16 φωναὶ κ. ἀστραπαί are surely thunder and lightning. But in Ex 9:23, 28; 1 Km 12:18 the mng. of φωναί remains unclear. Cp. also Esth 1:1d φωναί, βρονταί).—Freq. in imagery: of wind sound J 3:8; cp. Ac 2:6. Of thunderclap (1 Km 7:10; GrBar 6:13) Rv 6:1; 14:2c; 19:6c. Of roar of water (Ezk 1:24b) 1:15b; 14:2b; 19:6b. Of whirring of wings (Ezk 1:24a) 9:9a. Of the clatter of chariots 9:9 b (cp. Ezk 3:13; 26:10).

Meaning: `the greasy extract of sheep's wool' (Hdt. 4, 187, Hp.); cf. Dsc. below with extensive description of the preparation; after H. = ὁ τῆς οἰὸς ῥύπος).

Other forms: οἴσυπος m. (Dsc. 2, 74, Plin., H.); οἶσπαι προβάτων κόπρος, ῥύπος H.; οἴσπη v.l. Hdt. 4, 187, Gal., Suid.

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]

Etymology: Explained as *ὀϜι-σύπη, like the synonymous οἰσπώτη (s. v.), with unclear 2. member. Meaningless suppositions by Prellwitz s. v. and v. Blumenthal Hesychst. 43. - There is clear evidence for the variant οἴσπ-η, but it is difficult to decide whether the υ is secondary or the form without it; cf. Furnée 188 n. 22 on θαλ(υ)π-. In any case the word is most probably Pre-Greek (meaning!). One might also think of a labialized s, oisʷp-.

Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: expressive ep. poet. verb of unclear meaning, in Hom. of βόες σφαζόμενοι (Ψ 30), of old usu. explained as `to rattle', in Theoc. of the sea ( θάλασσαν... ὀρεχθεῖν 11, 43) `to roar, to surge', but in Ar. (Nu. 1368), A R. (1, 275), Opp. (H. 2, 583) of the heart ( καρδία, κέαρ), also of θυμός (A. R. 2, 49); after this in Nic. (Al. 340) of the κύστις and, quite obscure, in the tragedian Aristias (6; V^a) of πέδον.

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: The acoustic notion, in Theoc. undeniable, in Hom. very obvious, is at the other positions (Aristias can better be forgotten) impossible. The here except for Nic. required rendering through `be in convulsions, rattle, tremble' fits indeed as well as `ruckle' for Ψ 30. A uniform meaning could be reconstructed, if one may take Theoc. 11, 43 as an instance of the traditional but false interpretation of Ψ 30. -- Also etymologically unclear. The very old connection with ῥοχθέω `rauschen, brausen' is formally difficult, and does not explain all places, the also old connection with ὀρέγω (with θ-enlargement [Schwyzer 703], evtl. through a θ-perf. *ὤρεχ-θα [Risch $ 111 a]) is semantically rather meaningless.
