  • 7 μαίομαι

    Grammatical information: v.
    Meaning: `seek after, for, search for, touch, pursue', in present also `seek to attain' (Il.).
    Other forms: Aeol. also μάομαι (Sapph. 36?), fut. μάσσομαι, aor. - μάσσασθαι.
    Compounds: usu. with ἐπι-, in the aor. also with εἰσ-, ἐκ-, ἀμφι-, μετα-μαίομαι (Pi. Ν. 3, 81)
    Derivatives: Verbaladj.: ἀ-προτί-μαστος `untouched' (Τ 263), ἐπί-μαστος adjunct of ἀλήτης (υ 377), meaning unclear, cf. Bechtel Lex. s. v. - Nom. actionis: μάσμα n. `searching' (Cratin. 424, Pl. Kra. 421 b), μαστύς, - ύος f. `id.' (Call. Fr. 277; Benveniste Noms d'agent 73). -- Nom. agentis: μαστήρ m. (also f., Schwyzer 530) `searcher' (trag.), also name of an Athen. officer (Hyp.), cf. Benveniste 40, Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 4; with μάστειρα f. (A.), μαστήριος Έρμῆς `God of the tracing' (A.; Schulze Kl. Schr. 168 n. 3); Μάστωρ ep. PN (Benveniste 54, Fraenkel 1, 14; 2, 11); μαστρός m. name of a financial officer (Pellene, Rhodos, Delphi) with μαστρικός (Delphi IIa), μα-στρ(ε)ία, El. μαστράα = εὔθυνα (Messen. Ip, H.), cf. Schwyzer 532 w. n. 2, details in Fraenkel 1, 163 n. 2; as 1.(?) member in μαστρ-οπός m. f. `procur(ess)' with - οπικός, - οπεύω, - οπεία (Att.); hypocor. μάστρυς f. (Phot.). - Denomin. in -( τ)εύω (Schwyzer 732): μαστεύω `search' (Pi., A.; Epid., X.) with μάστ-ευσις (Epid. IVa, Archim.), - ευτής (X., Fraenkel 2, 62), - εία (VIp); vgl. ματεύω. -- Here perh. also PN like Εὔ-μαιος, Οἰνό-μαος, Μαίων (ep.). -- On μάστιξ, μάσθλης s. vv. On μαστροπός s.v, which is Pre-Greek.
    Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
    Etymology: The sigmatic forms, e.g. aor. - μάσσασθαι and ἀ-προτί-μαστος, make for μαίομαι a basis *μασ-ι̯ο-μαι possible; the σ-forms may however also belong to ματέω, ματεύω, s. v. - Usually μαίομαι `touch' and μαίομαι `strive, try' (the latter with gen.) are considered as two diff. verbs (Bechtel Lex. s. v., WP. 2, 220 a. 238f., Pok. 693 a. 704f., Schwyzer-Debrunner 105); but the meaning `try to reach, strive after' can be explained easily from the conative aspect of the present-stem. - No clear agreement. In the sense of `touch' compared with some words for `beckon with the hand etc.', e.g. OCS na-ma-jǫ, - jati `beckon', Lith. mó-ju, --ti `beckon', mos-úoti `turn, swing', with also μηνύω (s.v.); as `strive, try' however to μαιμάω, μῶμαι (s. vv.). -- After Belardi Maia 2, 277ff. (s. also Doxa 3, 213) as `touch' to μάρη etc.

  • 17 δικαιοσύνη

    δικαιοσύνη, ης, ἡ (s. δίκαιος; Theognis, Hdt.+) gener. the quality of being upright. Theognis 1, 147 defines δ. as the sum of all ἀρετή; acc. to Demosth. (20, 165) it is the opp. of κακία. A strict classification of δ. in the NT is complicated by freq. interplay of abstract and concrete aspects drawn from OT and Gr-Rom. cultures, in which a sense of equitableness combines with awareness of responsibility within a social context.
    the quality, state, or practice of judicial responsibility w. focus on fairness, justice, equitableness, fairness
    of human beings (a common theme in honorary ins, e.g. IPriene 71, 14f; 22f of a judge named Alexis; Danker, Benefactor 346–48; cp. Aristot., EN 5, 1, 8, 1129a τὸ μὲν δίκαιον ἄρα τὸ νόμιμον καὶ τὸ ἴσον ‘uprightness consists of that which is lawful and fair’; Ath. 34:2 ἔστι δὲ δ. ἴσα ἴσοις ἀμείβειν ‘uprightness means to answer like with like’; for association of δ. with judgment s. also Diog. L. 3, 79; in contexts of praise δ. suggests authority involving juridical responsibility FX 7, ’81, 255 n. 229) δ. κρίσεως ἀρχὴ καὶ τέλος uprightness is the beginning and end of judgment B 1:6. Melchizedek as βασιλεὺς δικαιοσύνης Hb 7:2. ἐργάζεσθαι δικαιοσύνην administer justice Hb 11:33; κρίνειν ἐν δ. (Ps 71:2f; 95:13; Sir 45:26; PsSol 8:24) judge justly Ac 17:31, cp. Mk 16:14 v.l. (Freer ms. line 5 in N. app.); Ro 9:28 v.l. (Is 10:22). ποιεῖν κρίμα καὶ δ. practice justice and uprightness 1 Cl 13:1 (Jer 9:23). καθιστάναι τοὺς ἐπισκοπούς ἐν δ. appoint overseers in uprightness= who will serve justly 1 Cl 42:5 (Is 60:17). David rejoices in God’s δ. 1 Cl 18:15 (Ps 50:16; s. ἀγαλλιάω, end).
    of transcendent figures (Pla. τὴν δ. θεοῦ νόμον ὑπελάμβανεν ‘considered divine justice [i.e. apportionment of reward or retribution in accordance with behavior] a principle’ or ‘system’ that served as a deterrent of crime Diog. L. 3, 79). Of an apocalyptic horseman ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ κρινεῖ Rv 19:11.
    quality or state of juridical correctness with focus on redemptive action, righteousness. Equitableness is esp. associated w. God (cp. Paradoxogr. Vat. 43 Keller αἰτεῖται παρὰ τ. θεῶν οὐδὲν ἄλλο πλὴν δικαιοσύνης), and in our lit. freq. in connection w. exercise of executive privilege in conferring a benefit. Hence God’s δ. can be the opposite of condemnation 2 Cor 3:9 (s. below); in it God is revealed as judge Rom 3:5—in contrast to human wrath, which beclouds judgment—displaying judicial integrity 3:25 (on this pass. s. also below). Cp. ἐκάλεσά σε ἐν δ. B 14:7 (Is 42:6). Also of equitable privilege allotted by God 2 Pt 1:1.—In Pauline thought the intimate association of God’s interest in retaining a reputation for justice that rewards goodness and requites evil, while at the same time working out a plan of salvation for all humanity, complicates classification of his use of δικαιοσύνη. On the one hand, God’s δ. is pardoning action, and on the other a way of sharing God’s character with believers, who then exhibit righteousness in the moral sense. God achieves this objective through exercise of executive privilege in dispensing justice equitably without reference to νόμος by making salvation available to all humanity (which shares a common problem of liability to wrath by being unanimously in revolt against God Ro 3:9–18, 23) through faith in God’s action in Jesus Christ. The genitival constr. δ. θεοῦ accents the uniqueness of this δ.: Ro 1:17; 3:21f, 25, 26 (s. these pass. also below; Reumann, 3c end); 10:3, and δ. alone 5:21; 9:30 (3 times); 2 Cor 3:9 (opp. κατάκρισις; cp. Dg 9:3; 5). 2 Cor 5:21 may belong here if δ. is viewed as abstract for concrete=δικαιωθέντες (but s. below). All these refer to righteousness bestowed by God cp. ἡ δωρεὰ τῆς δ. Ro 5:17, also 1 Cor 1:30 (sim. 1QS 11, 9–15; 1QH 4, 30–37). In this area it closely approximates salvation (cp. Is 46:13; 51:5 and s. NSnaith, Distinctive Ideas of the OT ’46, 207–22, esp. 218–22; EKäsemann, ZTK 58, ’61, 367–78 [against him RBultmann, JBL 83, ’64, 12–16]). According to some interpreters hunger and thirst for uprightness Mt 5:6 perh. offers (but s. 3a below) a related eschatological sense (‘Kingdom of God’, FNötscher, Biblica 31, ’50, 237–41=Vom A zum NT, ’62, 226–30).—Keeping the law cannot bring about uprightness Ro 3:21; Gal 2:21; 3:21, because δ. ἐκ τοῦ νόμου uprightness based on the law Ro 10:5 (cp. 9:30f), as ἰδία δ. one’s own (self-made) upr. 10:3, is impossible. God’s δ. without ref. to νόμος is to be apprehended by faith Ro 1:17; 3:22, 26; 4:3ff, 13; 9:30; 10:4, 6, 10 (cp. Hb 11:7 ἡ κατὰ πίστιν δ. righteousness based on faith; s. B-D-F §224, 1), for which reason faith is ‘calculated as righteousness’ (Gen 15:6; Ps 105:31; 1 Macc 2:52) Ro 4:3, 5f, 9, 11, 13, 22; Gal 3:6 (cp. Hb 11:7; Js 2:23; AMeyer, D. Rätsel des Jk 1930, 86ff; 1 Cl 10:6; B 13:7). Of Jesus as our righteousness 1 Cor 1:30.—As gift and power Ro 5:17, 21, and because it is intimately associated with the δύναμις of Christ’s resurrection Phil 3:9f (s. below), this righteousness enables the redeemed to respond and serve God faithfully Ro 6:13 (in wordplay opp. of ἀδικία), 16, 18ff; cp. 1 Cor 1:30 of Christ as instrument of God’s gift of δ.; 2 Cor 3:9. Thus God’s δ. functions as δύναμις 6:7 within Christians 5:21 (i.e. the way God acts in justifying or restoring people to a relationship with God’s self serves as a model for Christian interaction; for a difft. view, s. above) through the Spirit (Ro 8:9) and assures them they will have life that will be fully realized at the end of the age Ro 8:10f; for the time being it is a matter of hope ἐλπὶς δικαιοσύνης Gal 5:5 (cp. Is 51:5); cp. ἡ ἐκ θεοῦ δ. Phil 3:9. Pol 8:1 shares Paul’s view: Christ as ἀρραβὼν τῆς δ.—God’s uprightness as gift τοῦ κυρίου τοῦ ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς στάξαντος τὴν δ. who distills uprightness on you Hv 3, 9, 1.—Such perspectives offer a transition to specific ways in which the redeemed express uprightness.
    the quality or characteristic of upright behavior, uprightness, righteousness
    of uprightness in general: Mt 5:6 (cp. 6:33; some interpret 5:6 in an eschatological sense, s. 2 above; on desire for δ. cp. ἐπιθυμία τῆς δ. Hm 12, 2, 4); Mt 5:10, 20 (s. b, below); Hm 10, 1, 5; Dg 10:8; λόγος δικαιοσύνης Hb 5:13; Pol 9:1 (s. also Epict., Fgm.
