1 πῆχυς
πῆχυς, εως, ὁ (Hom.+; ins, pap, LXX, En, TestSol, TestAbr; TestJud 3:7; GrBar, ApcEsdr, EpArist, Philo, Joseph., apolog.) gen. pl. πηχῶν (un-Att.: X., An. 4, 7, 16; Polyb., Diod S, Hero Alex., Plut.; SIG 1231, 14; pap [Mayser p. 267]; LXX [s. Thackeray p. 151, 21]; En 7:2; Jos., Bell. 6, 166, C. Ap. 2, 119; SibOr 5, 57.—Phryn. p. 245 Lob.; Schwyzer I 573; Dssm., B 152 [BS 153f]; B-D-F §48; Mlt-H. 140f) orig. ‘forearm’ then cubit or ell as a measure of length (Poll. 2, 158: ἀπὸ δὲ τοῦ ὠλεκράνου πρὸς τὸ τοῦ μέσου δακτύλου ἄκρον, τὸ διάστημα πῆχυς=a cubit is the distance from the elbow to the end of the middle finger; about 45–52 cm.—KHermann, Lehrb. der griech. Antiquitäten IV3 1882, 438ff; FHultsch, APF 3, 1906, 438ff) Rv 21:17 (Lucian’s marvelous city [Ver. Hist. 2, 11] is measured not by the ordinary human cubit, but by the πῆχυς βασιλικός). ὡς ἀπὸ πηχῶν διακοσίων about ninety meters away (s. ἀπό 4) J 21:8. προσθεῖναι πῆχυν (cp. Epicharmus in Diog. L. 3, 11 μέτρον παχυαῖον ποτθέμειν): προσθεῖναι ἐπὶ τὴν ἡλικίαν αὐτοῦ π. (ἔνα) Mt 6:27; Lk 12:25 (Damasc., Vi. Isid. 166 of spiritual growth: αὔξεσθαι κατὰ πῆχυν; Epict. 3, 2, 10 γέγονέ σου τὸ ψυχάριον ἀντὶ δακτυλιαίου δίπηχυ=your little soul, as long as a finger, has become two cubits in length [because you were praised]). This expression has produced two major lines of interpr.: as ref. to length of life (s. ἡλικία 1a and cp. Mimnermus 2, 3 Diehl2 πήχυιον ἐπὶ χρόνον=‘for only a cubit of time’) add a single hour to your span of life NRSV; cp. Betz, SM p. 475f; as ref. to bodily growth add one cubit to your height / add a cubit to your stature NRSV mg. The former has been commended because the addition of a cubit in the sense of time appears to be a small matter, whereas a πῆχυς of bodily stature is monstrously large (Alcaeus, Fgm. 50 D.2 gives the measurement of an enormous giant as less than 5 cubits). But this objection fails to take account of freq. use of hyperbole in the dominical discourse. Moreover, the context of both pass. deals with food and clothing. Food provides the nourishment that sustains growth as well as life. Disciples do not grow to their present heights by worrying. The description ἐλάχιστον (Lk 12:26) appears to be an exquisite bit of irony climaxing the hyperbole.—B. 236f. DELG. M-M. -

9 ὑπωπιάζω
ὑπωπιάζω (on the v.l. ὑποπιάζειν s. W-S. §5, 19 note, end; Mlt-H. 75) (‘strike under the eye, give a black eye to’ Aristot., Rhet. 3, 11, 15, 1413a, 20; TestSol 2:4 D [ὑποπ.]; Plut., Mor. 921f; Diog. L. 6, 89)① to blacken an eye, give a black eye, strike in the face lit. τινά someone, of a woman who is driven to desperation and who the judge in the story thinks might in the end express herself physically ἵνα μὴ εἰς τέλος ἐρχομένη ὑπωπιάζῃ με so that she might not finally come and blacken my eye Lk 18:5. Hyperbole is stock-in-trade of popular storytelling. Some prefer to understand ὑπ. in this pass. in sense② to bring someone to submission by constant annoyance, wear down, fig. ext. of 1 (s. L-S-J-M s.v. II, NRSV, REB, et al.). In this interp. ὑπ. in Lk 18:5 has its meaning determined by εἰς τέλος. But in such case the denouement lacks punch, for the judge has already been worn down and wants nothing added to the κόπος that he has already endured. A more appropriate rendering for a fig. sense would be browbeat.—JDerrett, NTS 18, ’71/72, 178–91 (esp. 189–91): a fig. expr. (common throughout Asia), blacken my face = slander, besmirch underlies ὑπ. here.③ to put under strict discipline, punish, treat roughly, torment, also fig. (cp. Aristoph., Fgm. 541 πόλεις ὑπωπιασμέναι) 1 Cor 9:27 (of the apostle’s self-imposed discipline. But the expr. is obviously taken fr. the language of prize-fighting vs. 26; on the virtue of self-control cp. X., Mem. 2, 1, 1; 5).—DELG s.v. ὄπωπα E. M-M. TW. -
10 ὕλη
ὕλη, ης, ἡ (Hom.+)① a dense growth of trees, forest (Hom.+; JosAs 24:16 al., Jos. Ant. 18, 357; 366) Js 3:5. The tendency to use hyperbole in diatribe (cp. the imagery that precedes: ship-tongue) suggests this mng. in preference to② the woody part of a tree, wood, pile of wood, wood used for building, etc. (Hom. et al.; Jos., C. Ap. 1, 110) (cp. Sir 28:10; Ps.-Phoc. 144).③ the stuff out of which a thing is made, material, matter, stuff (Hom. et al.; Jos., C. Ap. 2, 191; Just., A I, 59, 1 al.; Tat. 37, 1; Mel., P. 38, 260; Ath. 19, 3) in our lit. only earthly, perishable, non-divine matter φθαρτὴ ὕλη (as Philo, Post. Cai. 165; Jos., Bell. 3, 372), fr. which idols are made (Maximus Tyr. 2, 3a; Just., A I, 9, 2) PtK 2 p. 14, 15; Dg 2:3. Humans, too, are made of such material 1 Cl 38:3 (Philo, Leg. All. 1, 83 ὕ. σωματική; Tat. 6, 2 σαρκική. Cp. Epict. 3, 7, 25 ἀνθρώπου ἡ ὕλη = τὰ σαρκίδια). W. connotation of that which is sinful, hostile to God (as in Philo and Gnostic lit.; Tat. 13, 2; 21, 4; Ath. 16, 3; 24, 4) IRo 6:2.—B. 46. DELG. M-M. Sv.
