Σαδδουκαῖος, ου, ὁ member of a major Israelite group, Sadducee, always pl. οἱ Σαδδουκαῖοι the Sadducees (s. Joseph.: the passages are printed in Schürer II 382f; s. pp. 384–88 for evidence fr. the Mishnah; cp. Billerbeck IV 339–52; Just., D. 80, 4 beside other Judean sects). Ac 5:17 associates the high priest and his adherents with this group. Acc. to Mt 22:23; Mk 12:18; Lk 20:27; Ac 23:8 they denied the resurrection of the dead. S. also Mt 3:7; 16:1, 6, 11f; 22:34; Ac 4:1; 23:6f. Many questions concerning the origin, name, and character of the Sadducees cannot yet be satisfactorily answered.—Wlh., Pharisäer u. die Sadd. 1874; GHölscher, Der Sadduzäismus 1906; Schürer II, 404–14; RLeszynsky, Die Sadduzäer 1912; BEerdmans, Farizeën en Saduceën: TT 48, 1914, 1–16; MSegall, Pharisees and Sadducees: Exp. 8th ser., 13, 1917, 81ff; GBox, Who Were the Sadducees in the NT: ibid. 401ff; 16, 1918, 55ff; EMeyer II 1921, 290ff; JLightley, Jewish Sects and Parties in the Time of Jesus 1923; HRasp, Fl.

n. [A. S. dagrêd = daybreak], this word is rarely used, Eg. 53, 174, Fms. i. 131; in the last passage it is borrowed from the poem Vellekla, (where it seems to be used in the A. S. sense; the poet speaks of a sortilege, and appears to say that the sortilege told him to fight at daybreak, then he would gain the day); the passages in prose, however, seem to take the word in the sense of early, in good time.

ădūlor, ātūs, 1, v. dep. [acc. to Lobeck, the -ulo, -ulor is connected with illein (cf. eiluô, eluô, and volvo), and thus denoted orig. the wagging of the tail and fawning of brutes; Fest. p. 21 Müll., thought adulor was a form of adludo, to play with; cf. Ger. wedeln and Eng. to wheedle], to cling to one fawningly, to fawn as a dog; and trop., of cringing flattery, which is exhibited in words and actions, to flatter in a cringing manner, to fawn upon (while assentari signified to yield to one in everything, to assent to what he says, and is used only of men; and blandiri, to be soft and pleasing in manner, to flatter by honeyed words as well as by captivating manners; cf. Cic. Lael. 25).— Constr. with acc., more rarely with dat., Rudd. II. p. 136; Zumpt, § 389.

perditur haec inter misero lux non sine votis,

Hor. S. 2, 6, 59 (K. and H. ad loc.), where Lachm., perh. needlessly, reads lux porgitur, the day seems too long for me. —In the pass. perdi, in late Lat.; v. infra), v. a., to make away with; to destroy, ruin; to squander, dissipate, throw away, waste, lose, etc. (class.; syn.: dissipo, perimo, deleo).

βλασφημία, ας, ἡ (s. βλασφημέω; Eur., Democr., Pla.+; LXX, Philo, Joseph.; Just., A I, 26, 5; Ath. 31, 2, R.72, 27; AssMos Fgm. j p. 67 Denis; loanw. in rabb.) speech that denigrates or defames, reviling, denigration, disrespect, slander

ⓐ gener., of any kind of speech that is defamatory or abusive, w. other vices Mk 7:22; Eph 4:31; Col 3:8. πᾶσα β. all abusive speech Hm 8:3; cp. Mt 12:31a. Pl. (Jos., Vi. 245) Mt 15:19; 1 Ti 6:4.

ⓑ specif., against humans and transcendent entities

α. humans (Cleanthes [IV–III B.C.] 1 p. 135, 21 [in Diog. L. 7, 17, 3]; Polyb. 11, 5, 8; Jos., Ant. 3, 307, Vi. 260) β. ἔκ τινος slander of (i.e. emanating from) someone Rv 2:9; cp. IEph 10:2.

β. the devil κρίσιν βλασφημίας a reviling judgment Jd 9 (but s. Field [Notes 244], who favors ‘accusation of [the devil for] blasphemy’).

γ. God and what is God’s (Comp. II 153f [Menand., Fgm. 715 Kock] ἡ εἰς τὸ θεῖον β.; Ezk 35:12; 1 Macc 2:6; 2 Macc 8:4; 10:35; 15:24; Philo, Leg. ad Gai. 368) Mt 26:65 (OLinton, NTS 7, ’61, 258–62); Mk 2:7 v.l.; 14:64; Lk 5:21 (pl.); J 10:33; Rv 13:5 (pl.); 2 Cl 13:3; D 3:6; β. πρὸς τὸν θεόν (Iambl., Vi. Pyth. 32, 216; cp. εἰς τὸν πατέρα Hippol., Ref. 9, 12, 19) Rv 13:6. βλασφημίας ἐπιφέρεσθαι τῷ ὀνόματι κυρίου 1 Cl 47:7; προσέθηκαν κατὰ ὄνομα τοῦ κυρίου βλασφημίαν Hs 6, 2, 3; β., ὅσα ἐὰν βλασφημήσωσιν Mk 3:28, s. βλασφημέω bβ; ἡ τοῦ πνεύματος (obj. gen.) β. Mt 12:31b, s. βλασφημέω bδ. ὀνόματα βλασφημίας (gen. of qual.) Rv 13:1; 17:3. ῥήματα βλασφημίας Ac 6:11 v.l.—The passages in β and γ generate an emotive aspect associated with denigration of a prestigious entity (cp. Origen’s rejoinder to Celsus: C. Celsum 8, 38 with reff. to Ex 22:27; Ro 12:14; 1 Cor 6:10). Hence the caution about denigrating the devil. Impious denigration of deity is esp. heinous and many translations reflect this emotive value in the loanword ‘blasphemy’. But Greco-Roman and Semitic minds would first of all, as Ac 19:37 and Rom 2:24 indicate, think in terms of disrespect shown or harm done to a deity’s reputation, a fact obscured by the rendering ‘blasphemy’, which has to some extent in Eng. gone its own emotive way semantically and has in effect become a religious technical term, which is not the case with βλασφημέω. On the range of expressions for denigration of God s. ESanders, Jewish Law fr. Jesus to the Mishnah ’90, 57–67.—DELG s.v. βλασφημέω. M-M. TW.

περιζώννυμι and περιζωννύω 1 aor. 3 sg. περιέζωσεν LXX. Mid.: 1 fut. περιζώσομαι; 1 aor. περιεζωσάμην, impv. περίζωσαι. Pass.: pf. ptc. περιεζωσμένος (since Theopompus [s. 2 below] and Aristoph; PFay 12, 20 [103 B.C.]; LXX; PsSol 2:20; TestJob 47, 6 and 11 al.; JosAs; Mel., P. 19, 134)

The pass. w. acc. of thing can be understood as a development of this be girded with someth. (Diod S 1, 72, 2 σινδόνας; 4 Km 3:21 ζώνην; PGM 5, 157 ὄφιν) περιεζωσμένον ζώνην χρυσᾶν with a gold belt around him Rv 1:13; cp. 15:6 (but s. 2b below). Certainly pass. is the abs. ἔστωσαν ὑμῶν αἱ ὀσφύες περιεζωσμέναι let your waists or loins be well-girt Lk 12:35 (Ex 12:11; Philo, Sacr. Abel. 63). The abs. perf. ptc. can also be understood as a pass. in Hv 3, 8, 4; Hs 8, 4, 2; 9, 9, 5 and περιεζωσμέναι εὐπρεπῶς 9, 2, 4 (s. εὐπρεπῶς). But the passages in Rv and Hermas can also be taken as

② gird oneself, mid. (since the comic wr. Theopompus [V B.C.], Fgm. 37 K.: περιζωσάμενος ᾤαν [sheepskin]; oft. LXX).

ⓑ w. acc. of the thing girded about one gird oneself w. someth., bind someth. about oneself (Theopompus [s. above]; Aristoph., Pax 670; Plut., Rom. 27 [16, 4], Coriol. 217 [9, 3]; 2 Km 3:31; Is 3:24; Jer 4:8; PsSol 2:20; TestJob 47:11; JosAs 10:11 al.; Jos., Ant. 11, 177; Mel., P. 19, 134) περίζωσαι ὠμόλινον Hs 8, 4, 1a; cp. b. This may also be the place for Rv 1:13; 15:6 (s. 1 above).

ⓒ w. acc. of the part of the body that is girded τὴν ὀσφῦν (Jer 1:17; Is 32:11; JosAs 10:16) gird one’s waist; that with which one is girded is added w. ἐν (1 Ch 15:27. Such girding is an indication that one is prepared for some activity.) περιζωσάμενοι τὴν ὀσφὺν ἐν ἀληθείᾳ after you have girded your waists with truth Eph 6:14.—Arnott, Alexis 536–38.—M-M. TW.

S. ch. 5, Sturl. i. 197, 198, 200, 206–208 (the two sisters there), etc. The meeting of the parliament, where people from all parts of the island were gathered together, was a golden opportunity for ‘bónorð’ (v. the passages above).

m. a mythical term, ‘war-fetter:’ a valiant man who in the stress of battle feels himself spell-bound, and unable to stir, was in old lore said to be caught in a ‘war-fetter;’ this was attributed to the weird sisters of battle (the Valkyrias), as is shewn by the fact that one of them was called Herfjöturr, Shackle, Edda (Gl.); they were the messengers of Odin, by whom the warriors were doomed to death (kjósa val); the passages referring to this lore are Fms. viii. 170, Sturl. ii. 233, Ísl. ii. 104 twice (Harð. S.):—a similar belief appears in the Greek, see Od. xxii. 297 sqq., Iliad xiii. 358–360, xxii. 5 sqq.
