    I
    the flank, groin, Irish bléin, Early Irish blén, Old Irish melen, for mleen, *mlakno-; Greek $$G malakós, soft (Strachan, Stokes). The meaning, if not the phonetics, is not quite satisfactory.
    II
    lean, insipid, blianach, lean flesh; cf. Welsh blin, tired, Old Breton blinion, inertes. These may be referred to *$$gleghno-, Lithuanian glez$$?nus, tender, weak, Greek $$G blchrós, languid. See, however, the derivation suggested for blian, above. For the Brittonic words, Stokes has suggested the stem blêno-; Sanskrit glána, tired.

  • 65 μάλθη

    Grammatical information: f.
    Meaning: `mix of wax and pitch', to caulk ships, and for on writing tables (Cratin. 204); after H. also = τρυφερή (adj.; correct?); also name of a big see-animal (Ael., Opp.; after the weak or waxlike flesh?, Strömberg Fischnamen 32,), but the word has nothing to do with μαλθακός.
    Other forms: also μάλθᾰ (Ar. Fr. 157) μάλθης, - θῃ (Hippon., S., D.); on the variation : -ᾰ Solmsen Wortforsch. 265)
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
    Etymology: The word has of course nothing to do with μαλθακός (s.v.). It is a technical loanword. The word must be Pre-Greek, as μαλθ- cannot be explined from IE (* meldʰ-). This also explains the nom. in (Beekes, Pre-Greek, 3, 1). Lat. LW [loanword] malt(h)a

From this mng. it is a short step to Paul’s nuanced view of the human condition:
