1 σπέρμα
σπέρμα, ατος, τό (σπείρω; Hom.+)① the source from which someth. is propagated, seedⓐ seed of plants pl. seeds 1 Cl 24:5; AcPlCor 2:26, 28 (Ath. 33, 1); (kinds of) seeds (ApcMos 29; Mel., P. 48, 341) Mt 13:32; Mk 4:31; 1 Cor 15:38 (MDahl, The Resurrection of the Body [ 1 Cor 15], ’62, 121–25). Sing., collective (POslo 32, 15 [1 A.D.] τὸ εἰς τ. γῆν σπέρμα) Mt 13:24, 27, 37f; 2 Cor 9:10 v.l. (Is 55:10). See Papias (1:3, Lat.).ⓑ male seed or semen (Pind. et al.; ApcEsdr 5:12 p. 30, 7 Tdf.; Just., A I, 19, 1 al.; Ath. 21, 1; 22, 4), so perh. Hb 11:11 (s. καταβολή 2 and s. 2b below, also Cadbury [αἷμα 1a]) and J 7:42; Ro 1:3; 2 Ti 2:8; IEph 18:2; IRo 7:3 (s. also 2a below on these passages). Then, by metonymy② the product of insemination, posterity, descendantsⓐ descendants, children, posterity (in Pind. and Trag., but mostly of an individual descendant; Pla., Leg. 9, 853c ἄνθρωποί τε καὶ ἀνθρώπων σπέρμασιν νομοθετοῦμεν. The pl. also 4 Macc 18:1; Ps.-Phoc. 18; Jos., Ant. 8, 200) in our lit. (as well as Aeschyl.; Soph., Trach. 1147; Eur., Med. 669 and, above all, LXX; TestAbr A 8 p. 85, 21 [Stone 18, 21]; ApcEsdr 3:10 p. 27, 19 Tdf.; ApcMos 41; Just., A I, 32, 14 al.) collective τῷ Ἀβραὰμ καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ Lk 1:55. See J 8:33, 37; Ac 7:5, 6 (Gen 15:13); 13:23; Ro 4:13; 11:1; 2 Cor 11:22; Hb 2:16; 11:18 (Gen 21:12); 1 Cl 10:4–6 (Gen 13:15f; 15:5); 16:11 (Is 53:10); 32:2 (cp. Gen 22:17); 56:14 (Job 5:25); B 3:3 (Is 58:7); Hv 2, 2, 2; Hs 9, 24. Of Salome σπ. εἰμὶ ʼ Αβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰακώβ GJs 20:2.—ἀνιστάναι σπ. τινί raise up children for someone Mt 22:24 (s. ἀνίστημι 3 and Dt 25:5); GJs 1:3b. Also ἐξανιστάναι σπ. Mk 12:19; Lk 20:28 (s. ἐξανίστημι 2). ἔχειν σπ. Mt 22:25; ἀφιέναι σπ. Mk 12:20, 22; also καταλείπειν σπ. vs. 21. ποιεῖν σπ. (Is 37:31) GJs 1:2f. ὅπως εὐλογηθῇ τὸ σπ. σου so that your posterity may be blessed 15:4.—Hb 11:11 may belong here (s. καταβολή 1 and s. 1b above); ἐκ (τοῦ) σπέρματος Δαυίδ w. ref. to Jesus may be classed here (s. Ps 88:5 and s. 1b above) J 7:42; Ro 1:3; 2 Ti 2:8; IEph 18:2; IRo 7:3; AcPlCor 2:5.—In imagistic use of metonymy σπ. is also used w. ref. to Abraham’s spiritual descendants, i.e. those who have faith like his Ro 4:16, 18 (Gen 15:5); 9:8; cp. vs. 7ab (Gen 21:12); Gal 3:29.—It is contrary to normal OT usage (for, even if Gen 4:25; 1 Km 1:11 σπέρμα is used w. ref. to a single individual, he stands as the representative of all the descendants) when one person, i.e. the Messiah, is called σπέρμα and thus is exalted above the mass of Abraham’s descendants (s. MWilcox, JSNT 5, 79, 2–20 on Targumim and rabbinic sources for application to individuals). In Ac 3:25 the promise of Gen 22:18 is referred to him, and s. esp. Gal 3:16, 19 (EBurton, ICC Gal 1921, 505–10).—In Rv 12:17 the Christians are called οἱ λοιποὶ τοῦ σπέρματος αὐτῆς the rest (in addition to the son just born to her) of her (the heavenly woman’s) children.ⓑ of a few survivors, fr. whom a new generation will arise (cp. Wsd 14:6; 1 Esdr 8:85; Jos., Ant. 11, 144; 12, 303; also Pla., Tim. 23c; Phlegon: 257 Fgm. 36 II, 3, 8 vs. 21 Jac. [p. 1174] ὅ τί που καὶ σπέρμα λίποιτο) Ro 9:29 (Is 1:9). Then③ genetic character, nature, disposition, character, of the divine σπέρμα (acc. to BWeiss = the word of God; acc. to EHaupt, Westcott, HHoltzmann, OBaumgarten, OHoltzmann, HHWendt, FHauck = the beginning or germ of a new life, planted in us by the Spirit of God; acc. to HWindisch and THaering, who are uncertain, = word or spirit; acc. to WWrede = the grace that makes us holy; RSV et al. ‘nature’) that dwells in one who is γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ (γεννάω 1b) and makes it ‘impossible for such a pers. to sin’ 1J 3:9 (JPainter, NTS 32, ’86, 48–71). The imagery suggests a person of exceptional merit, in Greco-Roman circles a model citizen, possesser of ἀρετή (q.v.; on the importance of ancestral virtue s. Pind., O. 7, 90–92; P. 10, 11–14; N. 3, 40–42; 6, 8–16; cp. Epict. 1, 13, 3: the slave has, just as you do, τὸν Δία πρόγονον, ὥσπερ υἱὸς ἐκ τῶν αὐτῶν σπερμάτων γέγονεν; s. also Herm.

SIG 685, 39 νῆσον τὴν καλουμένην Λεύκην; 826e 22; 1063, 5; PPetr II, 45 II, 20; BGU 1000, 6; PCairGoodsp 9, 4; O. Wilck II, 1210, 4).

Cp. 1:36; 8:2; 22:3 (s. ἐπικαλέω 2); Ac 1:23; 13:1; 15:22 (s. ἐπικαλέω), 37.—The example of the OT (Gen 17:19; 1 Km 1:20; Hos 1:9; 1 Macc 6:17) has influenced the expr. καλεῖν τὸ ὄνομά τινος, w. the name added in the acc. καλέσεις τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦν Mt 1:21; GJs 11:3; 14:2. Cp. Mt 1:23 (Is 7:14), 25; Lk 1:13, 31. Pass. Lk 2:21; Rv 19:13.ⓓ Very oft. the emphasis is to be placed less on the fact that names are such and such, than on the fact that the bearers of the name actually are what the name says about them. The pass. be named thus approaches closely the mng. to be, and it must be left to the sensitivity of the interpreter whether this transl. is to be attempted in any individual case (Quint. Smyrn. 14, 434 οὔτʼ ἔτι σεῖο κεκλήσομαι=I do not wish any longer to be yours, i.e. your daughter). Among such pass. are these: Ναζωραῖος κληθήσεται he is to be a Nazarene Mt 2:23. υἱοὶ θεοῦ κληθήσονται 5:9; cp. vs. 19ab. υἱὸς ὑψίστου κληθήσεται (in parallelism w. ἔσται μέγας) Lk 1:32; so GJs 11:3, but without the ref. to greatness; cp.

Mt 2:7; 22:3a. Of Joseph ἐκάλεσεν αὐτήν GJs 13:2 (for the context cp. Mt 1:18f). Of God: the Israelites fr. Egypt (as a type of Christ) Mt 2:15.— Call upon (Himerius, Or. 48 [=Or. 14], 10; 4 Macc 3:19) Hb 11:8.ⓒ a legal t.t. call in, summon before a court (oft. pap) τινά someone (Jos., Ant. 14, 169) Ac 4:18; 24:2.—The transition to mng. 4 is well illustrated by Mt 4:21; Mk 1:20; Papias (8), where the summons is also a call to discipleship.④ From the mngs. ‘summon’ and ‘invite’ there develops the extended sense choose for receipt of a special benefit or experience, call (Paus. 10, 32, 13 οὓς ἂν ἡ ῏Ισις καλέσῃ διʼ ἐνυπνίων; Ael.

17 ὡς
ὡς (Hom.+; loanw. in rabb.) relative adv. of the relative pron. ὅς. It is used as① a comparative particle, marking the manner in which someth. proceeds, as, likeⓐ corresponding to οὕτως=‘so, in such a way’: σωθήσεται, οὕτως ὡς διὰ πυρός he will be saved, (but only) in such a way as (one, in an attempt to save oneself, must go) through fire (and therefore suffer fr. burns) 1 Cor 3:15. τὴν ἑαυτοῦ γυναῖκα οὕτως ἀγαπάτω ὡς ἑαυτόν Eph 5:33; cp. vs. 28. ἡμέρα κυρίου ὡς κλέπτης οὕτως ἔρχεται 1 Th 5:2. The word οὕτως can also be omitted ἀσφαλίσασθε ὡς οἴδατε make it as secure as you know how = as you can Mt 27:65. ὡς οὐκ οἶδεν αὐτός (in such a way) as he himself does not know = he himself does not know how, without his knowing (just) how Mk 4:27. ὡς ἀνῆκεν (in such a way) as is fitting Col 3:18. Cp. 4:4; Eph 6:20; Tit 1:5 (cp. Just., A I, 3, 1 ὡς πρέπον ἐστίν). ὡς πᾶσα γυνὴ γεννᾷ GJs 11:2; ὡς ἀπεκαλύφθη AcPlCor 1:8.ⓑ special usesα. in ellipses (TestAbr A 12 p. 90, 22 [Stone p. 28] θρόνος … ἐξαστράπτων ὡς πῦρ; TestJob 20:3 χρήσασθαι … ὡς ἐβούλετο; JosAs 12:7 πρὸς σὲ κατέφυγον ὡς παιδίον ἐπὶ τὸν πατέρα) ἐλάλουν ὡς νήπιος I used to speak as a child (is accustomed to speak) 1 Cor 13:11a; cp. bc; Mk 10:15; Eph 6:6a; Phil 2:22; Col 3:22. ὡς τέκνα φωτὸς περιπατεῖτε walk as (is appropriate for) children of light Eph 5:8; cp. 6:6b. ὡς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ as (it is one’s duty to walk) in the daylight Ro 13:13. The Israelites went through the Red Sea ὡς διὰ ξηρᾶς γῆς as (one travels) over dry land Hb 11:29. οὐ λέγει ὡς ἐπὶ πολλῶν ἀλλʼ ὡς ἐφʼ ἑνός he speaks not as one would of a plurality (s. ἐπί 8), but as of a single thing Gal 3:16.—Ro 15:15; 1 Pt 5:3. Also referring back to οὕτως (GrBar 6:16 ὡς γὰρ τὰ δίστομα οὕτως καὶ ὁ ἀλέκτωρ μηνύει τοῖς ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ like articulate beings the rooster informs earth’s inhabitants) οὕτως τρέχω ὡς οὐκ ἀδήλως I run as (a person) with a fixed goal 1 Cor 9:26a. Cp. ibid. b; Js 2:12.β. ὡς and the words that go w. it can be the subj. or obj., of a clause: γενηθήτω σοι ὡς θέλεις let it be done (= it will be done) for you as you wish Mt 15:28. Cp. 8:13; Lk 14:22 v.l. (for ὅ; cp. ὡς τὸ θέλημά σου OdeSol 11:21). The predicate belonging to such a subj. is to be supplied in οὐχ ὡς ἐγὼ θέλω (γενηθήτω) Mt 26:39a.—ἐποίησεν ὡς προσέταξεν αὐτῷ ὁ ἄγγελος he did as (= that which) the angel commanded him (to do) Mt 1:24; cp. 26:19 (on the structure s. RPesch, BZ 10, ’66, 220–45; 11, ’67, 79–95; cp. the formula Job 42:9 and the contrasting negation Ex 1:17; s. also Ex 3:21f); 28:15.—Practically equivalent to ὅ, which is a v.l. for it Mk 14:72 (JBirdsall, NovT 2, ’58, 272–75; cp. Lk 14:22 above).γ. ἕκαστος ὡς each one as or according to what Ro 12:3; 1 Cor 3:5; 7:17ab; Rv 22:12. ὡς ἦν δυνατὸς ἕκαστος each person interpreted them as best each could Papias (2:16).δ. in indirect questions (X., Cyr. 1, 5, 11 ἀπαίδευτοι ὡς χρὴ συμμάχοις χρῆσθαι) ἐξηγοῦντο ὡς ἐγνώσθη αὐτοῖς ἐν τῇ κλάσει τοῦ ἄρτου they told how he had made himself known to them when they broke bread together Lk 24:35. Cp. Mk 12:26 v.l. (for πῶς); Lk 8:47; 23:55; Ac 10:38; 20:20; Ro 11:2; 2 Cor 7:15.② a conjunction marking a point of comparison, as. This ‘as’ can have a ‘so’ expressly corresponding to it or not, as the case may be; further, both sides of the comparison can be expressed in complete clauses, or one or even both may be abbreviated.ⓐ ὡς is correlative w. οὕτως=so. οὕτως … ὡς (so, in such a way) … as: οὐδέποτε ἐλάλησεν οὕτως ἄνθρωπος ὡς οὗτος λαλεῖ ὁ ἄνθρωπος J 7:46. ὡς … οὕτως Ac 8:32 (Is 53:7); 23:11; Ro 5:15 (ὡς τὸ παράπτωμα, οὕτως καὶ τὸ χάρισμα, both halves to be completed), 18. ὡς κοινωνοί ἐστε τῶν παθημάτων, οὕτως καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως as you are comrades in suffering, so (shall you be) in comfort as well 2 Cor 1:7. Cp. 7:14; 11:3 v.l.—ὡς … καί as … so (Plut., Mor. 39e; Ath. 15, 2) Mt 6:10; Ac 7:51; 2 Cor 13:2; Gal 1:9; Phil 1:20.ⓑ The clause beginning w. ὡς can easily be understood and supplied in many cases; when this occurs, the noun upon which the comparison depends can often stand alone, and in these cases ὡς acts as a particle denoting comparison. οἱ δίκαιοι ἐκλάμψουσιν ὡς ὁ ἥλιος the righteous will shine out as the sun (shines) Mt 13:43. ὡς ἐπὶ λῃστὴν ἐξήλθατε συλλαβεῖν με as (one goes out) against a robber, (so) you have gone out to arrest me 26:55 (Mel., P. 79, 574 ὡς ἐπὶ φόνιον λῄστην). γίνεσθε φρόνιμοι ὡς οἱ ὄφεις be (as) wise as serpents (are) 10:16b. Cp. Lk 12:27; 21:35; 22:31; J 15:6; 2 Ti 2:17; 1 Pt 5:8.ⓒ Semitic infl. is felt in the manner in which ὡς, combined w. a subst., takes the place of a subst. or an adj.α. a substantiveא. as subj. (cp. Da 7:13 ὡς υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου ἤρχετο; cp. 10:16, 18) ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου (ἦν) ὡς θάλασσα ὑαλίνη before the throne there was something like a sea of glass Rv 4:6. Cp. 8:8; 9:7a. ἀφʼ ἑνὸς ἐγενήθησαν ὡς ἡ ἄμμος from one man they have come into being as the sand, i.e. countless descendants Hb 11:12.ב. as obj. (JosAs 17:6 εἶδεν Ἀσενὲθ ὡς ἅρμα πυρός) ᾂδουσιν ὡς ᾠδὴν καινήν they were singing, as it were, a new song Rv 14:3. ἤκουσα ὡς φωνήν I heard what sounded like a shout 19:1, 6abc; cp. 6:1.β. as adjective, pred. (mostly εἶναι, γίνεσθαι ὡς; the latter also in rendering of ךְּ to express the basic reality of something: GDelling, Jüd. Lehre u. Frömmigkeit ’67, p. 58, on ParJer 9:7) ἐὰν μὴ γένησθε ὡς τὰ παιδία if you do not become child-like Mt 18:3. ὡς ἄγγελοί εἰσιν they are similar to angels 22:30. πᾶσα σὰρξ ὡς χόρτος 1 Pt 1:24. Cp.

Sim. also ποίησόν με ὡς ἕνα τῶν μισθίων σου treat me like one of your day laborers Lk 15:19.—The adj. or adjectival expr. for which this form stands may be used as an attribute πίστιν ὡς κόκκον σινάπεως faith like a mustard seed=faith no greater than a tiny mustard seed Mt 17:20; Lk 17:6. προφήτης ὡς εἷς τῶν προφητῶν Mk 6:15. Cp. Ac 3:22; 7:37 (both Dt 18:15); 10:11; 11:5. ἐγένετο ὡς εἷς τῶν φευγόντων AcPl Ha 5, 18. ἀρνίον ὡς ἐσφαγμένον a lamb that appeared to have been slaughtered Rv 5:6.—In expressions like τρίχας ὡς τρίχας γυναικῶν 9:8a the second τρίχας can be omitted as self-evident (Ps 54:7 v.l.): ἡ φωνὴ ὡς σάλπιγγος 4:1; cp. 1:10; 9:8b; 13:2a; 14:2c; 16:3.ⓓ other noteworthy usesα. ὡς as can introduce an example ὡς καὶ Ἠλίας ἐποίησεν Lk 9:54 v.l.; cp. 1 Pt 3:6; or, in the combination ὡς γέγραπται, a scripture quotation Mk 1:2 v.l.; 7:6; Lk 3:4; Ac 13:33; cp. Ro 9:25; or even an authoritative human opinion Ac 17:28; 22:5; 25:10; or any other decisive reason Mt 5:48; 6:12 (ὡς καί).β. ὡς introduces short clauses: ὡς εἰώθει as his custom was Mk 10:1. Cp. Hs 5, 1, 2. ὡς λογίζομαι as I think 1 Pt 5:12. ὡς ἐνομίζετο as was supposed Lk 3:23 (Diog. L. 3, 2 ὡς Ἀθήνησιν ἦν λόγος [about Plato’s origin]; TestAbr A 5 p. 82, 32 [Stone p. 12] ὡς ἐμοὶ δοκεῖ; Just., A I, 6, 2 ὡς ἐδιδάχθημεν). ὡς ἦν as he was Mk 4:36. ὡς ἔφην Papias (2:15) (ApcMos 42; cp. Just., A I, 21, 6 ὡς προέφημεν).γ. The expr. οὕτως ἐστὶν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ ὡς ἄνθρωπος βάλῃ τὸν σπόρον Mk 4:26 may well exhibit colloquial syntax; but some think that ἄν (so one v.l. [=ἐάν, which is read by many mss.]) once stood before ἄνθρωπος and was lost inadvertently. S. the comm., e.g. EKlostermann, Hdb. z.

20 θυγάτηρ
θυγάτηρ, τρός, ἡ (Hom.+) voc. θύγατερ (B-D-R 147, 3) for which the nom. without the art. is also used (Mk 5:34; Lk 8:48; J 12:15; W-S. §29, 4; Mlt-H. 136); pl. θυγατέρες etc.① a human (θ. is used in lit. also of offspring of animals, e.g. Simonides of Ceos 7 of mules) female in relation of child to parent, daughter (Epict. 4, 11, 35; Paus. 8, 20, 3) Mt 10:35, 37; Lk 8:42; 12:53. Foll. by gen. of father or mother Mt 9:18; 14:6; 15:22, 28; Mk 5:35; 6:22; 7:26, 29; Lk 2:36; 8:49; Ac 2:17 (Jo 3:1); 7:21; Hb 11:24; B 19:5; D 4:9; cp. Ac 21:9; GJs 17:1; Papias (2:9; 11:2). τὰς θυγατέρας τῶν Ἑβραίων τὰς ἀμιάντους, the undefiled daughters of the Hebrews. GJs 6:1 (s. deStrycker ad loc.; s. also the lit. s.v. γαμίζω 1bγ).② someone treated as one’s daughter, daughter (for such extended use of θ. cp. Paradoxogr. Vat. 60 Keller; Phalaris, Ep. 142, 3 θ.=girl) voc. in a friendly greeting to girls or women Mt 9:22; Mk 5:34; Lk 8:48. Sim. of God’s daughters as children in a transcendent sense 2 Cor 6:18 (cp. Is 43:6; Wsd 9:7); in personal address υἱοὶ καὶ θυγατέρες B 1:1 (cp. Ath. 32, 2).③ female members of an ancestral group, political entity, or specific class of persons, daughters, θυγατέρες Ἀαρών the female descendants of Aaron, i.e., the women of priestly families Lk 1:5. θ. Ἀβραάμ 13:16 (cp. 4 Macc 15:28). Of women who are readers of B, and are therefore his pupils B 1:1 (but s. 2 above). θυγατέρες Ἰερουσαλήμ Lk 23:28 is an OT expr. to designate the individual female inhabitants of the city (cp. SSol 2:7; 3:5; Is 3:16; 4:4; PsSol 2:6, 13). But the situation is different from the usage θυγάτηρ Σιών in 4.④ someth. personified as female, daughter (Procop. Soph., Ep. 93 the letters are θυγατέρες of their writers), of doubt θ. ἐστὶ τοῦ διαβόλου the devil’s daughter Hm 9:9; cp. 12, 2, 2 (Pind., O. 10, 3f ἀλάθεια as θυγάτηρ Διός). Of virtues, one of which is the daughter of the other in turn Hv 3, 8, 4f.—Of special interest is the sing. θυγάτηρ Σιών, as in OT fashion (cp. Zech 2:14; 9:9; Jer 4:31 al.—SibOr 3, 324 θυγατέρες δυσμῶν=peoples of the west) this term denotes the city of Zion and its inhabitants Mt 21:5; J 12:15 (both w. combination of Is 62:11 and Zech 9:9).
