Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `watch' (Il.),Other forms: δοκέω (Il.), aor. δοκῆσαι, fut. δοκήσω (Od.), δόξαι, δόξω (Pi., h. Merc., ; s. below), perf. δεδόκημαι (Pi.), δέδογμαι (Hdt.) `seem, think', δοκεῖ μοι `it seems to me' (Il.); προσ-δοκάω, aor. προσδοκῆσαι `await' (Hdt.).Derivatives: δόκησις `belief, opinion, semblance' (Hdt.), δοκησι-δέξιος, - νους, - σοφος `in one's own opinion just etc.' (Com.). δόκημα `image, delusion' (E., see Chantr. Form. 184ff.), `decision' (Argos); on δόκημα, δόκησις Holt Les noms d'action en - σις 147f. δόγμα `opinion, decision' (Att., hell.; to δόξαι, δόξω after τάξαι, τάξω: τάγμα etc.) with δογματικός `dogmatic', δογματίας `who pronounces δόγματα', δογματίζω `give an opinion' (hell. and late). δόξα `opinion, consideration, glory', δόξις = δόξα (Demokr.; after γνῶσις Schwyzer 505). δοκώ f. `id.' (E. El. 747; Chantraine 116). δόκος m. `id.' (Xenoph.). δοκή `id.' (Hdn.). - δόκιμος `reliable, considerable etc.' (Ion.-Att., Dor.); compounds εὑ-, ἀ-δόκιμος ; with δοκίμιον, δοκιμεῖον `proof' (Pl.) and the denomin. δοκίμωμι (Aeol.), δοκιμόω (Parm.) `believe', δοκιμάζω `try, approve' (Ion.-Att.) with δοκιμασία `test' (Att.; s. Schwyzer 469, Chantraine 85), δοκιμαστής, δοκιμαστήρ, - ήριον, δοκιμαστός, - ικός (Att. etc.); also, as postverbal, δοκιμή `test, proof' (Ep. Phil., Ep. Kor.). - εὑδοκιμέω `have a good repute' (Thgn.) with εὑδοκίμησις (Pl.) - δοκικῶ = δοκῶ (Hermipp. 12) humorous lengthening, cf. Bechtel Glotta 12, 211. - From προσδοκάω: προσδοκία `expectation' also προσδόκημα (Pl. Phlb. 32c), προσδόκιμος (Ion.-Att.).Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]Etymology: δοκέω (and προσδοκάω) are deverbative derivations of primary ( προσ-) δέκομαι (s. δέχομαι). Like alle secondary verbs originally only present stems, for the other tempora the primary verb was used. Such a system is δόξαι, δόξω, if with - ο- after δοκέω for *δέξαι, *δέξω (Wackernagel KZ 33, 37; further Schwyzer 718). - Lengthened δοκεύω (s. above) and δοκάζω `await' (Sophr., S. Fr. 221, 23) because of their meaning better to - δοκάω, δέκομαι than to δοκέω. - The semantic relations are difficult in detail. To δοκέω agrees Lat. doceō `learn' (causative).

5 μάρναμαι
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `fight, do battle' (Il.).Other forms: only present; ptc. βαρνάμενος through dissimilation.Etymology: The zerograde nasal present μάρ-να-μαι (Schwyzer 693) has an exact formal agreement in Skt. ipv. mr̥-ṇī-hí (*mr̥-nh₂-), with the thematic active mr̥ṇáti `crush' (diff. Thieme KZ 66, 233 n. 1: prop. `seize, grip, rob'; μάρναμαι originally from wrestling). If the etymology is at all correct (rejected by Pedersen IF 2, 294), μάρναμαι must originally have ment `crush one another, slay asunder'; a representant is supposed in μάρμαρος (s.v.). Semantically fits better Arm. mart `combat' (d-enlargement); the other words adduced like Germ., e.g. OWNo. meria `push away', Lat. mortārium, also morbus (W.-Hofmann s. vv., WP. 2, 278f., Pok. 735f.) learn nothing for Greek. -- An innovation beside μάρναμαι is μαραίνω, s.v.Page in Frisk: 2,177-178Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > μάρναμαι

6 πειράω
πειράω in our lit. only πειράομαι (Hom.+) fut. mid. πειράσομαι; 1 aor. pl. ἐπειράθημεν 1 Macc 12:10; pf. πεπείραμαι 1 Km 17:39; in one place perh. as pass.: impf. 3 sg. ἐπειρᾶτο Ac 9:26 v.l.; pf. ptc. πεπειραμένος.① to try to do someth., try, attempt, endeavor w. inf. foll.

(for ἐπείραζεν); 2 Cl 17:3; MPol 13:2; Qua 1.② to have an experience, to experience. The sense of the wording is difficult in Hb 4:15 v.l. (for πεπειρασμένον), which describes Christ as πεπειραμένος κατὰ πάντα. Starting fr. the mng. ‘put someone or someth. to the test, in order to know the same better’, the mid. can = go through an experience and learn someth. by it (Aesop, Fab. 105 H./437 P./p. 190 ln. 6 H-H.) and the perf. mid.=have experienced, know from experience, know (Hes., Hdt. et al.; X., Hiero 1, 2; 2, 6; Pla., Ep. 6 p. 323a). For our pass. this would result in the mng. who was experienced in all respects. The pass. sense tried, tested, tempted is hardly in accord w. Gk. usage. S. πειράζω 2b and 4 on the Hb pass.—B. 652f.
