    ① an undefined period of time in a day, time of day ὀψὲ ἤδη οὔσης τῆς ὥρας since it was already late in the day or since the hour was (already) late Mk 11:11 v.l.; cp. MPol 7:1b (s. ὀψέ 1 and 2; Demosth. 21, 84; Polyb. 3, 83, 7 ὀψὲ τῆς ὥρας). ὀψίας οὔσης τῆς ὥρας Mk 11:11 (ὄψιος 1). ὥρα πολλή late hour (Polyb. 5, 8, 3; Dionys. Hal. 2, 54; TestAbr A 14 p. 94, 24 [Stone p. 36]; Jos., Ant. 8, 118) 6:35ab. ἡ ὥρα ἤδη παρῆλθεν Mt 14:15 (παρέρχομαι 2).—Mt 24:42 v.l., 44; Lk 12:39, 40; Rv 3:3; D 16:1.

One ὥρα in this world corresponds to a ὥρα thirty days in length in the place of punishment Hs 6, 4, 4. μίαν ὥραν (not even) one hour Mt 26:40; Mk 14:37. Such passages help us to understand how ὥρα can acquire the sense

    ② In our lit. mostly subst. ἡ ὀψία (sc. ὥρα; B-D-F §241, 3) the period between late afternoon and darkness, evening (Ael. Aristid. 48, 50 K.=24 p. 478 D.; POxy 475, 16 [182 A.D.] ὀψίας ‘in the evening’; 528, 5 καθʼ ἑκάστης ἡμέρας καὶ ὀψίας; PGM 1, 69; Jdth 13:1 ὡς ὀψία ἐγένετο) usu. in the combination ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης when evening came (Syntipas p. 49, 11; TestSol 1:42; Jos., Ant. 5, 7) Mt 8:16; 14:15, 23; 20:8; 26:20; 27:57; Mk 1:32 (the double expr. ὀψ. γενομένης, ὅτε ἔδυσεν ὁ ἥλ. is like Herm.
