σοφός, ή, όν (s. two prec. entries; Pind., Hdt.et al.; LXX, TestSol, Test12Patr; JosAs 13:11; ApcSed 14:8 p. 136, 14 Ja; Ep-Arist, Philo, Joseph., apolog. exc. Mel.) prim. a clever pers. who knows how to do someth. or construct someth., such as buildings, poems (so esp. Pind.; many philosophers published their thoughts in verse), speeches.

① pert. to knowing how to do someth. in a skillful manner, clever, skillful, experienced (Pind., N. 7, 17 [25] of mariners; τεχνίτης Iren. 1, 8, 1 [Harv. I 68, 1]) ς. ἀρχιτέκτων 1 Cor 3:10 (Is 3:3; cp. Il. 15, 412 σοφία τέκτονος; Eur., Alc. 348 σοφὴ χεὶρ τεκτόνων; Maximus Tyr. 6, 4d ὁ τέκτων ς.; Philo, Somn. 2, 8). Cp. 6:5. σοφὸς ἐν διακρίσει λόγων skillful in the interpretation of discourse 1 Cl 48:5 (ς. ἐν as Maximus Tyr. 24, 6b).

② pert. to understanding that results in wise attitudes and conduct, wise

ⓐ of humans

α. wise, learned, having intelligence and education above the average, perh. related to philosophy (Pind. et al.; Jos., Bell. 6, 313; Just., D. 5, 6; Tat., 33, 4; Ath. 29, 1; w. πεπαιδευμένος and φρόνιμος Orig., C. Cels. 3, 48, 8): ὁ σοφός beside ὁ ἰσχυρός and ὁ πλούσιος 1 Cl 13:1 (Jer 9:22); 38:2. Opp. ἀνόητος Ro 1:14. Those who are wise acc. to worldly standards, the σοφὸς κατὰ σάρκα 1 Cor 1:26 (cp. ὁ τοῦ κόσμου ς. Hippol., Ref. 4, 43, 1), stand in contrast to God and God’s wisdom, which remains hidden for them Ro 1:22 (Just., D. 2, 6 ᾤμην σοφὸ γεγονέναι; Oenomaus in Eus., PE 5, 34, 10 οἰομένους εἶναι σοφούς); 1 Cor 1:19 (Is 29:14), 20, 27; 3:19 (cp. Job 5:13), 20 (Ps 93:11); IEph 18:1. W. συνετός (Jos., Ant. 11, 57; 58; Just., D. 123, 4) Mt 11:25; Lk 10:21 (s. WNestle, Vom Mythos zum Logos ’42, 13–17; GKilpatrick, JTS 48, ’47, 63f).

β. wise in that the wisdom is divine in nature and origin (opp. ἄσοφος) Eph 5:15. (Opp. μωρός) 1 Cor 3:18ab. W. ἐπιστήμων (Philo, Migr. Abr. 58) Js 3:13; B 6:10. σοφὸς εἰς τὸ ἀγαθόν (opp. ἀκέραιος εἰς τὸ κακόν) Ro 16:19. Jesus intends to send out προφήτας καὶ σοφοὺς κ. γραμματεῖς Mt 23:34.

ⓑ of God. In the abs. sense God is called σοφός (Sir 1:8; cp. 4 Macc 1:12; SibOr 5, 360.—Ael. Aristid. 46 p. 409 D.: σοφώτατον εἶναι θεόν.—Orig., C. Cels. 3, 70, 9) μόνος σοφὸς θεός (Ps.-Phoc. 54 εἷς θεὸς σοφ.; Herm. Wr. 14, 3; s. GRudberg, ConNeot 7, ’42, 12) Ro 16:27; 1 Ti 1:17 v.l.; Jd 25 v.l.; cp. 1 Cor 1:25. ὁ σοφὸς ἐν τῷ κτίζειν 1 Cl 60:1 (w. συνετὸς ἐν τῷ κτλ.). σοφὴ βουλή God’s wise counsel Dg 8:10. (On 2aβ and b cp. Sb 6307 [III B.C.] of Petosiris the astrologer: ἐν θεοῖς κείμενος, μετὰ σοφῶν σοφός.)—B. 1213. DELG. M-M. EDNT. TW. Sv.

σπιλάς, άδος, ἡ used metaph. in Jd 12. The interpretation depends on which of two possible mngs. is preferred:

① (s. DELG 1 σπίλο) a rocky hazard hidden by waves, a rock washed by the sea, a (hidden) reef (Hom. et al.; Nicander, Alex. 290; Philostrat., Imag. 2, 13 p. 359, 19; Sb 6160, 1; Jos., Bell. 3, 420). Acc. to the Etymol. Magnum it is characteristic of the σπιλάδες that they cannot be seen, and hence a ship can be wrecked on them before any danger is suspected (αἱ ὑπὸ θάλασσαν κεκρυμμέναι πέτραι; Diod S 3, 44, 4 σπιλάδας ἐνθαλάττους). This type of interpr. is preferred by deWette, Mayor, Wordsworth, Chase, Weymouth, and conditionally by HvSoden, Windisch, REB ‘danger’, NRSV (mg. ‘reefs’). In its favor is the sequence of unfavorable natural phenomena.

② (s. DELG 2 σπίλο) that which soils or discolors, spot, stain (Orpheus, Lithica 614 GHermann=620 Ch-ÉRuelle [1898]: the agate is said to be κατάστικτος σπιλάδεσσι=‘sprinkled w. spots’. Hesychius explains σπιλάδες in our pass. w. μεμιασμένοι. S. also the par. 2 Pt 2:13 s.v. σπίλος and B-D-F §45; Mlt-H. 360f) so Spitta et al., L-S-J-M., NRSV (text ‘blemishes’), and conditionally HvSoden, Windisch, et al.—AKnox, Σπιλάδες: JTS 14, 1913, 547–49; 16, 1915, 78 (dirty, foul wind); HJones, ibid. 23, 1922, 282f.—M-M. Spicq.

στοιχεῖον, ου, τό (since Aristoph., X., Pla.; also BGU 959, 2) in our lit. only pl.

① basic components of someth., elements

ⓐ of substances underlying the natural world, the basic elements fr. which everything in the world is made and of which it is composed (Pla. et al.; PGM 4, 440; Wsd 7:17; 19:18; 4 Macc 12:13; Ath., R. 3 p. 51, 17), to disappear in the world conflagration at the end of time 2 Pt 3:10, 12 (Ath. 22, 3; lit. s.v. καυσόω). The four elements of the world (earth, air, fire, water) Hv 3, 13, 3 (cp. Diog. L. 7, 137 [Zeno the Stoic] ἔστι δὲ στοιχεῖον, ἐξ οὗ πρώτου γίνεται τὰ γινόμενα καὶ εἰς ὸ̔ ἔσχατον ἀναλύεται … τὸ πῦρ, τὸ ὕδωρ, ὁ ἀήρ, ἡ γῆ; Plut., Mor. 875c; Philo, Cher. 127 τὰ τέσσαρα στοιχεῖα; Jos., Ant. 3, 183.—JKroll, Die Lehren des Hermes Trismegistos 1914, 178ff; ESchweizer, JBL 107, ’88, 455–68). πῦρ … ὕδωρ … ἄλλο τι τῶν στοιχείων Dg 8:2; cp. 7:2 (s. b).

ⓑ of basic components of celestial constellations, heavenly bodies (Ar. 3, 2; Just., A II, 5, 2; Diog. L. 6. 102 τὰ δώδεκα στοιχεῖα of the signs of the zodiac; POsl 4, 18 δώδεκα στ. τοῦ οὐρανοῦ; Ps.-Callisth. 13, 1.—PGM 4, 1303 the ‘Bear’ is called a στοιχεῖον ἄφθαρτον.—Rtzst., Poim. 69ff, Herr der Grösse 13ff; Diels [s. below] 53f; JvanWageningen, Τὰ στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου: ThSt 35, 1917, 1–6; FColson, The Week 1926, 95ff) Dg 7:2.

ⓒ of things that constitute the foundation of learning, fundamental principles (X., Mem. 2, 1, 1; Isocr. 2, 16; Plut., Lib. Educ. 16, 2; Just., A I, 60, 11) or even letters of the alphabet, ABC’s (Pla. et al.) τὰ στ. τῆς ἀρχῆς τῶν λογίων τοῦ θεοῦ the very elements of the truths of God Hb 5:12. This mng. is also prob. for the passages in Gal (4:3, 9 NEB ‘elementary ideas belonging to this world’; cp. LBelleville, JSNT 26, ’86, 53–78) and Col; s. next.

② transcendent powers that are in control over events in this world, elements, elemental spirits. The mng. of στ. in τὰ στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου Gal 4:3; Col 2:8, 20 (for the expr. στοιχ. τ. κόσμου cp. SibOr 2, 206; 3, 80f; 8, 337) and τὰ ἀσθενῆ καὶ πτωχὰ στοιχεῖα Gal 4:9 is much disputed. For a survey s. EBurton, ICC Gal 1921, 510–18. Some (e.g. Burton, Goodsp.) prefer to take it in sense 1c above, as referring to the elementary forms of religion, Jewish and polytheistic, which have been superseded by the new revelation in Christ (so also WKnox, St. Paul and the Church of the Gentiles ’39, 108f; RGrant, HTR 39, ’46, 71–3; ACramer, Stoicheia Tou Kosmou, ’61 [the unregenerate tendencies within humans]).—Others (e.g. WBauer, Mft., NRSV) hold that the ref. is to the elemental spirits which the syncretistic religious tendencies of later antiquity associated w. the physical elements (Herm. Wr. Κόρη κόσμου in Stob. I 409 W.=Sc. 486ff, esp. 486, 23; 25; 490, 14: the στοιχεῖα, fire, air, water, earth, complain to the deity who is over all; Orph. Hymn. 5, 4; 66, 4 Qu.; Ps.-Callisth. 1, 3 [s. below Pfister p. 416f]; Simplicius In Aristot. De Caelo 1, 3 p. 107, 15 Heiberg.—MDibelius, Geisterwelt 78ff; 228ff, Hdb. z. NT² exc. on Col 2:8; ELohmeyer, Col 1930, 4–8; 103–5; FPfister, Die στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου in den Briefen des Ap. Pls: Philol. 69, 1910, 411–27; GMacgregor: ACPurdy Festschr. ’60, 88–104); they were somet. worshiped as divinities (Vett. Val. 293, 27; Philo, Vita Cont. 3 τοὺς τὰ στοιχεῖα τιμῶντας, γῆν, ὕδωρ, ἀέρα, πῦρ. Cp. Diels [s. below] 45ff; Schweizer 1a above). It is not always easy to differentiate betw. this sense and that of 1b above, since heavenly bodies were also regarded as personal beings and given divine honors.—HDiels, Elementum 1899; ABonhöffer, Epiktet u. das NT 1911, 130ff; OLagercrantz, Elementum 1911 (p. 41 στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου=θεμέλια τοῦ κόσμου); BEaston, The Pauline Theol. and Hellenism: AJT 21, 1917, 358–82; KDieterich, Hellenist.

① the highest official in a Gr-Rom. city, praetor, chief magistrate pl. of the highest officials of the Roman colony of Philippi.
