Grammatical information: adj.

Meaning: `having an impressed, pouting nose, snub-, flat-nosed' (opposite γρυπός), `bent upward, rising, concave, hollow' (oppos. κυρτός), metaph. `impudent, mischievous' (IA),

Compounds: also with modifying or further charakterising prefixes as ἀνα-, ἐν-, ὑπο- (Strömberg Prefix Studies 127 a. 147).

Derivatives: 1. σιμ-ότης f. `snub-nosedness, upward bending' (Pl., X.); 2. - όομαι, - όω, also w. ἀπο-, ἐπι-, ὑπο-, `to become snub-nosed, to bend (oneself) upward, to bend off' (Hp., Th., X., Arist. etc.) with - ωσις f. `snub-nosedness' (Gal.), ἀπο- σῑμός `bending off course of a ship' (App.); - ωμα n. `curved upward prow of a ship' (Plu.); 3. - αίνω `to bend the nose upward' (Call. Iamb.); also 4. σίμιον αἰγιαλός H. (of a sea-coast bent inwards). -- With oppositive accent.: σῖμος m. name of a fish (Opp., Ath.) with - άριον (pap. VI -- VII^p); cf. Strömberg Fischn. 44, Thompson Fishes s. v. -- Several PN: Σῖμ-ος, - ύλος, - ιχος a.o.; also - ίας, from where as appellative *σιμίας m. prop. "flat-nose", `monkey' in Lat. LW [loanword] sīmia (Leumann Sprache 1, 206 f. = Kl. Schr. 173); cf. καλλίας. -- Quite doubtful the rivern. Σιμόεις, - εντος (Il. etc.); cf. Krahe Beitr. z. Namenforsch. 2, 233 f.

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]

Etymology: Oxytone adj. in - μός are rare (Chantraine Form. 151, Schwyzer 494); note however θερμός and close to it δοχμός, both inherited. Σιμός too makes the impression of an old inherited word, but a convincing etymology does not exist. The connection with a Germ. word for `disappear, fall in, decrease' in OHG swīnan, ONord. svīna (Persson, e.g. Beitr. 1, 382, Brugmann Grundr.<sup>2</sup> II: 1, 246 f.) is, even apart from the phonetic uncertainty, also semant. far from evident; s. WP. 2, 519 (= Pok. 1041), where σιμός as `bent inwards' is rather connected with MHG swīmen `stagger, be suspended', ONord. svīma `float, stagger, swoon' with further connection with Celt., e.g. Welsh chwil (from *su̯ī-lo-) `turning quickly, whiling, dally', IE *su̯ē̆i- `bend, turn, swing'; semant. also not very evident. Lat. LW [loanword] sīmus, s. W.-Hofmann; diff. Pisani Ist. Lomb. 73: 2, 27 (Mediterranean word, if not inherited). -- After Solmsen IF 30, 1ff. to σιμός also σίλλος and σικχός, perh. also σιρός (s. vv.). -- As there is no cognste, the word could also be Pre-Greek.

n., sounded rökkr (reykkr, Fms. iv. 70) with a double k; rokkr, Fb. i. 538; røckr, Ó. H. 28; in Edda the Ób. gives kk, the Kb. k, which is the better form, see Edda i. 186, foot-note 3: see also rökvit:—the twilight; rökr rökra, Hdl. 1; en við rökkr kom þar Þorfinnr Önundarson, Sturl. i. 156; um rökkr (røckr Cod.) eða um nætr, Ó. H. 28; þau tóku fæðslu bæði saman við rökr, Greg. 65: seldom of the morning twilight, as rennr dagr rökkrið þrýtr, Úlf. 9. 83: the twilight is in Icel. the time set apart for song and story-telling, as in the ditty, Árni Böðvarsson til sanns sýngr ljóð í rökrum | bezta skáld um bygðir lands, búandi á Ökrum.

2. the mythol. phrase, ragna rökr, the twilight of the gods, which occurs in the prose Edda (by Snorri), and has since been received into modern works, is no doubt merely a corruption from rök (q. v.), a word quite different from rökr; the corruption may have originated from Ls. 39—úlfgi hefir ok vel er í böndum skal bíða ragna rökrs, which resembles, Hjaðningar skolu svá bíða ragna rökrs, Edda i. 436: ragna-rökr is the form used throughout in the Edda, allt til ragna rökrs, 98; þar liggr hann til ragna rökrs, 114; hver tíðendi eru at segja frá um ragna rökr, 186; en þát er þeir göra langa frásögn of ragna rökr, þat er Trojumanna-orrosta, Edda (pref.); en við ragna rökr kom Miðgarðsormr, id.; frá fimbul-vetri ok ragna rökkrum, Edda (Ub.) ii. 290: the word occurs nowhere else in old writers.

διαθήκη, ης, ἡ (Democr., Aristoph.+; ins, pap, LXX, En, TestSol, TestAbr, Test12Patr; ParJer 6:21; ApcEsdr, ApcMos; AssMos Fgm. a; Philo, Joseph., Just.; Mel., HE 4, 26, 14) apart from the simplex θήκη ‘case, chest’, for the mng. of this word one must begin with the mid. form of the verb διατίθεμαι, which is freq. used in legal and commercial discourse of disposition of things (s. L-S-J-M s.v. διατιθημι B), w. implication of promissory obligation. Disposition of one’s personal effects would naturally come under testamentary law, hence

① last will and testament (so exclusively in Hellenistic times, Eger [s. 3 below] 99 note; exx. e.g. in Riggenbach 292ff; Behm 10, 1; 2; Philo, Joseph., Test12Patr; loanw. in rabb.) Hb 9:16f; δ. κεκυρωμένη a will that has been ratified Gal 3:15; cp. 17, where δ. shades into mng. 2 (s. κυρόω 1, προκυρόω); s. also EBammel, below, and JSwetnam, CBQ 27, ’65, 373–90. On Jewish perspective s. RKatzoff, An Interpretation of PYadin 19—A Jewish Gift after Death: ProcXXCongPap 562–65.

② As a transl. of בְּרִית in LXX δ. retains the component of legal disposition of personal goods while omitting that of the anticipated death of a testator. A Hellenistic reader would experience no confusion, for it was a foregone conclusion that gods were immortal. Hence a δ. decreed by God cannot require the death of the testator to make it operative. Nevertheless, another essential characteristic of a testament is retained, namely that it is the declaration of one person’s initiative, not the result of an agreement betw. two parties, like a compact or a contract. This is beyond doubt one of the main reasons why the LXX rendered בְּרִית by δ. In the ‘covenants’ of God, it was God alone who set the conditions; hence covenant (s. OED s.v. ‘covenant’ sb. 7) can be used to trans. δ. only when this is kept in mind. So δ. acquires a mng. in LXX which cannot be paralleled w. certainty in extra-Biblical sources, namely ‘decree’, ‘declaration of purpose’, ‘set of regulations’, etc. Our lit., which is very strongly influenced by LXX in this area, seems as a rule to have understood the word in these senses (JHughes, NovT 21, ’79, 27–96 [also Hb 9:16–20; Gal 3:15–17]). God has issued a declaration of his purpose Ro 11:27 (Is 59:21); 1 Cl 15:4 (Ps 77:37); 35:7 (Ps 49:16), which God bears in mind (cp. Ps 104:8f; 105:45 al.) Lk 1:72; it goes back to ancestral days Ac 3:25 (PsSol 9:10; ParJer 6:21). God also issued an ordinance (of circumcision) 7:8 (cp. Gen 17:10ff). Since God’s holy will was set forth on more than one occasion (Gen 6:18; 9:9ff; 15:18; 17:2ff; Ex 19:5 and oft.), one may speak of διαθῆκαι decrees, assurances (cp. διαθῆκαι πατέρων Wsd 18:22; 2 Macc 8:15.—But the pl. is also used for a single testament: Diog. L. 4, 44; 5, 16. In quoting or referring to Theophr. sometimes the sing. [Diog. L. 5, 52; 56] is used, sometimes the pl. [5, 51; 57]) Ro 9:4; Eph 2:12. Much emphasis is laid on the δ. καινή, mentioned as early as Jer 38:31, which God planned for future disposition (Hb 8:8–10; 10:16). God’s decree or covenant directed toward the Christians is a καινὴ δ. (δ. δευτέρα Orig., C. Cels. 2, 75) Lk 22:20; 1 Cor 11:25; 2 Cor 3:6; Hb 8:8; 9:15a; PtK 2 p. 15, 5, or δ. νέα Hb 12:24; PtK 2 p. 15, 6 which, as a δ. αἰώνιος (cp. Jer 39:40; En 99:2) Hb 13:20, far excels 7:22; 8:6 the παλαιὰ δ. 2 Cor 3:14, or πρώτη δ. Hb 9:15b, with which it is contrasted. Both are mentioned (Did., Gen. 46, 4; 235, 26) Gal 4:24; B 4:6ff (Ex 34:28; 31:18; Just., D. 67, 9). Blood was shed when the old covenant was proclaimed at Sinai Hb 9:20 (Ex 24:8); the same is true of the new covenant Hb 10:29. τὸ αἷμά μου τ. διαθήκης Mt 26:28; Mk 14:24 (ELohse, Märtyrer u. Gottesknecht², ’63, 122–29) is prob. to be understood in connection w. this blood (s. WWrede, ZNW 1, 1900, 69–74; TRobinson, My Blood of the Covenant: KMarti Festschr. 1925, 232–37; for a critique of this view s. GWalther, Jesus, D. Passalamm des Neuen Bundes, ’50, 22–27 and JJeremias TLZ, ’51, 547. For Syriac background JEmerton, JTS 13, ’62, 111–17; s. also ÉDelebrecque, Études grecques sur l’vangile de Luc ’76, 109–21).—The v.l. Lk 22:29 may be derived from Jer 39:40 or Is 55:3 LXX (for the cognate acc. s. Aristoph., Aves 440).—δ. may also be transl. decree in the Ep. of Barnabas (4:6ff; 6:19; 9:6; 13:1, 6; 14:1ff δ. δοῦναί τινι); but the freq. occurrence of the idea of inheritance (6:19; 13:1, 6; 14:4f), makes it likely that the ‘decree’ is to be thought of as part of a will.

③ The mng. compact, contract seems firmly established for Gr-Rom. times (FNorton, A Lexicographical and Historical Study of Διαθήκη, Chicago 1908, 31ff; EBruck, D. Schenkung auf d. Todesfall im griech. u. röm. Recht I 1909, 115ff; JWackernagel, D. Kultur d. Gegenw. I 8² 1907, 309). It remains doubtful whether this mng. has influenced our lit. here and there (exc. quite prob. Lk 22:29 v.l. with its administrative tenor; the phrase διατίθεμαι δ. as Aristoph., Av. 440 of a treaty agreement), but the usage of the term δ. in such sense would again serve as a bridge to LXX usage.—The expr. ἡ κιβωτὸς τ. διαθήκης covenant chest i.e. the sacred box (Eng. ‘ark’ as loanw. from Lat. arca) that symbolized God’s pledge of presence w. Israel (Ex 31:7; 39:14 al.) Hb 9:4; Rv 11:19 or αἱ πλάκες τ. διαθ. (Ex 34:28; Dt 9:9, 11) Hb 9:4 would have required some acquaintance with Israelite tradition on the part of ancient readers.—ERiggenbach, D. Begriff d. Διαθήκη im Hb: Theol. Stud. f.
