Grammatical information: v.

Meaning: `send forth, put forth, dispatch' (Il.; also Th. 5, 77, Dor.); intr. `flee' (Hes. Th. 269).

Other forms: Aor. ἰῆλαι, Dor. (Sophr.) ἰᾶλαι, fut. ἰαλῶ ( ἐπ- Ar. Nu. 1299).

Compounds: Also with prefix, e. g. ἐπ- ( ἐφ-, cf. below), προ-,

Derivatives: Ίάλμενος PN (Il.), cf. below.

Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [909] * sel- `set in movement'

Etymology: A reduplicated yot-present, of which the reduplication was preserved in the non-present forms, i. e. *ἰ-αλ-ι̯ω. If the aspiration in ἱάλλω (Hdn. Gr. 1, 539; also in φιαλεῖς [Ar. V. 1348] and φιαλοῦμεν [Ar. Pax 432] for ( ἐ)πιαλ-) is original, ἱάλλω could belong to ἅλλομαι (Leumann Hom. Wörter 80 n. 45). As however the aspiration can be due to folketymologisal connection with ἵημι, the connection proposed by Kuhn KZ 5, 195f. with Skt. present íy-ar-ti `incite, sets in motion' (cf. Ίάλ-μενος) seems to be the best solution. - Older ideas in Bq. - Narten connects Skt. sísarti 1stretch out, draw out (but no to sisrate), Münch. Stud. Spr. 26 (1969) 77ff.

φρέαρ, ατος, τό (Hom. Hymns, Hdt. et al.; ins, pap, LXX; TestAbr A 3 p. 80, 1 and 4 [Stone p. 8]; Philo)

① a construction consisting of a vertical shaft, covered with a stone, for water supply, a well (Appian, Bell. Civ. 4, 107 §448; Arrian, Anab. 6, 18, 1; 6, 20, 4; Jos., Ant. 4, 283 οἱ φρέαρ ὀρύξαντες; Philo, Somn. 1, 8 [after Gen 26:32].—Contrast: πηγή … φρέαρ Paus. 1, 14; Philo, Poster.

Hymns, Demeter 98f the motif of the divine wanderer who sits down near the city φρέατι, ὅθεν ὑδρεύοντο πολῖται). The wordplay πηγή … φρέαρ sets the stage for the saying in vss. 13f, and the shift to φρέαρ at vs. 11 is made to focus on the depth of the shaft (s. 2 below), which requires use of a bucket. In contrast, Jesus supplies water that ‘wells up’ vs. 14 (s. ἄλλομαι 2).

② an opening that leads to the depths of the nether world, pit, shaft (for the sense ‘shaft’ s. Hero Alex. I p. 32, 12; 15; s. also ἄβυσσος 2; cp. Ps 54:24 φρέαρ διαφθορᾶς) Rv 9:1, 2abc.—B. 44. DELG. M-M. Sv.

χειμών, ῶνος, ὁ(Hom.+, in var. senses relating to inclement/bad weather; contexts usually qualify the specific character of such weather, for which a receptor language may have discrete terms)

On the sea, storm, bad weather: χειμῶνος οὐκ ὀλίγου ἐπικειμένου with some rather bad weather pressing upon them (indicative of a low-pressure area) Ac 27:20. For this pass. many render storm (cp. Demosth. 18, 194; Diod S 11, 13, 1 χ. μέγας=a severe storm; TestNapht 6:9; Jos., Ant. 6, 91; 14, 377; fig.: Philo, Congr. Erud. Gr. 93 [opp. γαλήνη] and Tat. 6, 3 a ‘squall’ of stupidity); based, according to Warnecke, Romfahrt 41 (n. 10; s. also p. 46), on misconceptions relating to meteorological conditions and geographical data and without due accounting of the unlikely feat of sailing through a violent storm for two weeks (Ac 27:27; s. Romfahrt 41–54).

Dam.: 90 Fgm. 67, 1 Jac. δικαιοσύνην κ. ἀλ.). Hence it is contrasted w. ἀδικία 1 Cor 13:6; Ro 1:18; 2:8. In the last-named passage a negative attitude toward the truth is called ἀπειθεῖν τῇ ἀ. Also πλανᾶσθαι ἀπὸ τῆς ἀ. wander from the truth Js 5:19; ἀστοχεῖν περὶ τὴν ἀ. 2 Ti 2:18; καταστρέφειν ἀπὸ τῆς ἀ.

God’s word is truth J 17:17 (Ps 118:142). Truth w. χάρις 1:14, 17; w. πνεῦμα 4:23f; cp. ἐν ἔργῳ καὶ ἀ. 1J 3:18 (opp. λόγῳ, γλώσσῃ). W. ἀγάπη 2J 3. The Spirit leads into truth J 16:13; hence πνεῦμα τῆς ἀ. 14:17; 15:26; 16:13; 1J 4:6 (cp. Hm 3:4). πνεῦμα is identified w. ἀ. 1J 5:6; it is mediated through Christ J 1:17, who calls himself truth 14:6 (cp. PGM 5, 148 ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἀλήθεια, on the other hand POxy 1380, 63 [early II A.D.] Isis is called ἀ.; Apollonaretal. Berl. Gr.

The truth sets one free J 8:32, but is not present in those who deny the fact of sin in their lives 1J 1:8 or do not heed Christ’s commands. Christ proclaims this truth: λέγειν (Jos., Ant. 10, 124) J 8:45f; 16:7; λαλεῖν 8:40 (also λαλεῖν ἐν ἀ. IEph 6:2); μαρτυρεῖν τῇ ἀ. 18:37.

For a variety of synonyms s. Schürer III 87–91.). Gener. as description of ‘one who identifies with beliefs, rites, and customs of adherents of Israel’s Mosaic and prophetic tradition’ (the standard term in the Mishnah is ‘Israelite’). (Since the term ‘Judaism’ suggests a monolithic entity that fails to take account of the many varieties of thought and social expression associated with such adherents, the calque or loanword ‘Judean’ is used in this and other entries where Ἰ. is treated. Complicating the semantic problem is the existence side by side of persons who had genealogy on their side and those who became proselytes [on the latter cp. Cass. Dio 37, 17, 1; 67, 14, 2; 68, 1, 2]; also of adherents of Moses who recognized Jesus as Messiah [s. Gal 2:13 in 2d below; s. also 2eα] and those who did not do so. Incalculable harm has been caused by simply glossing Ἰ. with ‘Jew’, for many readers or auditors of Bible translations do not practice the historical judgment necessary to distinguish between circumstances and events of an ancient time and contemporary ethnic-religious-social realities, with the result that anti-Judaism in the modern sense of the term is needlessly fostered through biblical texts.)

Ἰουδαία 1), and means the Judean countryside in contrast to the capital city. Of Drusilla, described as οὔσα Ἰουδαία being Judean or Jewish, but for the view that Ἰ. is here a noun s. 2b.

② one who is Judean (Jewish), with focus on adherence to Mosaic tradition, a Judean, Ἰουδαῖος as noun (so predom.). Since Jerusalem sets the standard for fidelity to Israel’s tradition, and since Jerusalem is located in Judea, Ἰ. frequently suggests conformity to Israel’s ancestral belief and practice. In turn, the geographical name provided outsiders with a term that applied to all, including followers of Jesus, who practiced customs variously associated with Judea (note the Roman perception Ac 18:15 [‘Judeans’ at Corinth]; 23:28).

β. those who are in opposition to Jesus, with special focus on hostility emanating from leaders in Jerusalem, center of Israelite belief and cult; there is no indication that John uses the term in the general ethnic sense suggested in modern use of the word ‘Jew’, which covers diversities of belief and practice that were not envisaged by biblical writers, who concern themselves with intra-Judean (intra-Israelite) differences and conflicts: 1:19; 2:18, 20; 5:10, 15f; 6:41, 52 (a debate); 7:1, 11, 13; 9:18, 22; 10:24, 31, 33 (in contrast to the πολλοί from ‘beyond the Jordan’, 10:40–42, who are certainly Israelites) 11:8; 13:33; 18:14.
