2 διά
διά prep. w. gen. and acc. (Hom.+) (for lit. s. ἀνά, beg.); the fundamental idea that finds expression in this prep. is separation, esp. in the gen., with the gener. sense ‘through’; in the acc. the gener. sense also is ‘through’ (cp. the semantic range in Eng.), but primarily with a causal focus ‘owing to’.A. w. gen.① marker of extension through an area or object, via, throughⓐ w. verbs of going διέρχεσθαι διὰ πάντων (sc. τόπων, EpArist 132) go through all the places Ac 9:32; cp.

Ac 20:3.—Ἰης. ὁ ἐλθὼν διʼ ὕδατος καὶ αἵματος 1J 5:6 first of all refers quite literally to Jesus’ passing through water at the hand of John and through blood at his death (on the expression ‘come through blood’ in this sense cp. Eur., Phoen. 20 in Alex. Aphr., Fat. 31 II 2 p. 202, 10, of the oracle to Laius the father of Oedipus, concerning the bloody downfall of his house: πᾶς σὸς οἶκος βήσεται διʼ αἵματος).

Cronin, ‘The Green Years’, book III, ch. 5) — я ожидал сурового выговора за то, что "отступился от Бога"... а каноник заговорил со мной так мягко, что у меня на глаза навернулись слезы.
2) эвф. согрешить; ≈ сойти с пути истинного...he had assisted in extricating from the consequences of their folly several young girls of good family who had fallen from grace and could not otherwise be rescued. (Th. Dreiser, ‘An American Tragedy’, book II, ch. XXXVII) —... он помог нескольким девушкам из хороших семейств, согрешившим и не имевшим иного выхода избавиться от последствий их легкомыслия.
III have been carefully taught by several professors that to read a book less than fifty years old is an unworthy and degrading action, and consequently I have never done it... Somehow or other I fell from grace; there came into my hands a copy of Barrie's ‘Sentimental Tommy’, and for the first time is dawned upon my young mind that works of genius might be appearing now. (U. Sinclair, ‘Money Writes!’, ch. IX) — Мои учителя старательно внушали мне, что читать книги, вышедшие за последние пятьдесят лет, - дело недостойное и обедняющее духовный мир, и потому я не читаю их... Но однажды совершилось мое грехопадение: ко мне в руки попал томик "Сентиментального Томми" Берри и я вдруг понял, что гениальные произведения пишутся и в наши дни.
нарушение приличий, ложный шаг [этим. рел. отход от истинной веры; выражение образовано по конверсии от to fall from grace; см. fall from grace I]His one fall from grace - the so-called Fremingham lecture was tolerated by some and condoned by others... (J. O'Hara, ‘Elizabeth Appleton’, ch. X) — Джон Апплтон оступился единственный раз, когда прочел критическую лекцию о Фремингаме. Одни отнеслись к этой лекции терпимо, а другие от души простили ему ее...

Antes, cuando todavía es un proyecto de ley ( bill), puede ser modificado tanto por la Cámara de los Comunes como por la de los Lores. Si ambas cámaras lo aprueban, se envía al monarca para que dé su aprobación ( Royal Assent), aunque esto es una mera formalidad. Tras ello la ley ya es oficialmente un Act of Parliament, y pasa a formar parte de la legislación británica, reemplazando cualquier ley consuetudinaria ( common law) que hubiera sobre ese asunto.See:see cultural note COMMON LAW in common* * *noun = American College Test
