(w. αἰνεῖν) Lk 2:20 (s. Polyb. above); Ac 4:21; διά τινος and ἐπί τινι 2 Cor 9:13; διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ 1 Pt 4:11. W. εὐχαριστεῖν Ro 1:21 (the cardinal sin is not to be grateful for benefactions; reciprocity requires glorification of the benefactor, hence the freq. ref. in ins to the effect that one knows how to acknowledge benefits, e.g. IPriene 3, 26f; 6, 24–27); the name (Nicol. Dam.: 90 Fgm. 19 Jac. [in Jos., Ant. 1, 160] τοῦ Ἀβράμου ἔτι κ. νῦν τὸ ὄνομα δοξάζεται=revered) of God Rv 15:4 (Ps 85:9); Hv 2, 1, 2; 3, 4, 3 (Just., D. 41, 3). τὸ ὄνομα the name, i.e. God’s, IPhld 10:1 (cp.

Thüsing et al. s.v. δόξα, end), in which the whole life of Jesus is depicted as a glorifying of the Son by the Father: J 8:54; 12:28; 13:31; 17:1, 4 (cp. GCaird, NTS 15, ’68/69, 265–77) and, at the same time, of the Father by the Son: 13:31f; 14:13; 17:1. The glorifying of the Son is brought about by the miracles which the Father has him perform 11:4 (cp. PGM 7, 501ff κυρία ῏Ισις, δόξασόν με, ὡς ἐδόξασα τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ υἱοῦ σου ῟Ωρος; IAndrosIsis, Kyme 40 [s. also Peek’s comm. p. 63] spoken by the deity: οὐδεὶς δοξάζεται ἄνευ τ. ἐμῆς γνώμης), through the working of the Paraclete 16:14 and through ‘his own’ 17:10, who also glorify the Father 15:8, esp. in martyrdom 21:19 (on δοξάζεσθαι ἐν 13:31f; 14:13; 15:8; 17:10 cp. Diod S 12, 36, 2; 16, 82, 7 ἐν συνέσει δεδοξασμένος; Sir 48:4; 1 Macc 2:64).—2 Cor 3:10; τὸν λόγον τοῦ κυρίου Ac 13:48; cp. 2 Th 3:1; B 6:16 (Is 49:5); IPol 8:1. χαρὰ δεδοξασμένη joy filled w. glory 1 Pt 1:8; Pol 1:3. οὐχ ἑαυτὸν ἐδόξασεν γενηθῆναι ἀρχιερέα he did not presume for himself the prestige of the high priesthood Hb 5:5.—On Rv 18:7 s. 1, above. δοξάζοντες J 11:31 v.l.

① act of taking pride in someth. or that which constitutes a source of pride, boast (Ael. Aristid. 32, 5 K.=12 p. 135 D.), then also used when the boast is not made in words, to denote the thing of which one is proud, in this sense pride (Dt 33:29; Pr 17:6) κ. ἔχει he has someth. to boast about Ro 4:2. οὐκ ἔστιν μοι κ. I have no right to boast 1 Cor 9:16. εἰς ἑαυτὸν τὸ κ. ἔχειν have a reason for boasting on one’s own account Gal 6:4 (PHaeuser, BZ 12, 1914, 45–56). With gen. (Ps.-Callisth. 2, 22, 7 and 11 Περσῶν κ.) τὸ κ. μου οὐδεὶς κενώσει 1 Cor 9:15. κ. τινος εἶναι be someone’s pride 2 Cor 1:14. εἰς κ. ἐμοὶ εἰς ἡμέραν Χριστοῦ as my pride (and joy) in the day of Christ Phil 2:16. τὸ κ. ἡμῶν what we are proud of 1 Cl 34:5. τὸ κ. ὑμῶν what you can be proud of Phil 1:26. οὐ καλὸν τὸ κ. ὑμῶν what you are (so) proud of 1 Cor 5:6. τὸ κ. τῆς ἐλπίδος that for which we are proud to hope (cp.

② expression of pride, boast, what is said in boasting ἵνα μὴ τὸ κ. ἡμῶν τὸ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν κενωθῇ so that what we say in praise of you may not prove to be empty words 2 Cor 9:3.—In effect= boasting (cp. Pind., I. 5, 51 καύχημα=act. ‘boasting’) ἀφορμὴν διδόναι τινὶ καυχήματος ὑπέρ τινος give someone an occasion to be proud of someone 5:12.—PGenths, D. Begriff des καύχημα b.

Formed by crasis, as found in most edd., fr. καὶ ἐγώ) dat. κἀμοί, acc. κἀμέ. S. B-D-F §18; W-S. §5, 9; Mlt-H. 84.

① and I ὁ πατήρ σου κἀγώ Lk 2:48; cp. Mt 11:28; J 6:57; 7:28; 8:26; 10:28; 17:22; IPhld 11:1 al.—In a narrative told in the first pers. sg. it connects one member w. another J 1:31, 33, 34. It oft. expresses a reciprocal relation and I, as I ἐν ἐμοὶ μένει κἀγὼ ἐν αὐτῷ J 6:56. μείνατε ἐν ἐμοὶ κἀγὼ ἐν ὑμῖν 15:4; cp. 10:15, 38; 14:20; also 2 Cor 12:20; Gal 6:14.

② but I: Jesus in contrast to the prince of this world J 12:32; cp. Ac 22:19. ὑμεῖς … κἀμοί you … but to me 10:28. σὺ πίστιν ἔχεις, κἀγὼ ἔργα ἔχω you have faith, but I have deeds Js 2:18a.

③ I also, I too

ⓐ = I, as well as others δοκῶ κἀγὼ πνεῦμα θεοῦ ἔχειν I believe that I, too, have the Spirit of God 1 Cor 7:40. κἀγὼ προσκυνήσω αὐτῷ Mt 2:8. Cp. Lk 1:3; Ac 8:19.—I, too J 5:17; 2 Cor 11:21, 22abc.—καθὼς … κἀγώ just as … I also J 15:9; 17:18; 20:21.

ⓑ I for my part, I in turn Mt 10:32f; 26:15 (s. 5 below);18:33; 21:24; Lk 22:29; B 1:4; ISm 4:2. ὅτι ἐτήρησας … κἀγώ σε τηρήσω because you have kept … I, in turn, will keep you Rv 3:10.—Introducing the moral of a parable κἀγὼ ὑμῖν λέγω I, for my part, say to you Lk 11:9 (cp. 16:9).—κἀγὼ δέ but I, for my part Mt 16:18.

ⓒ The καί in κἀγώ is redundant in comparison τοιούτους ὁποῖος κἀγώ εἰμι such as I am Ac 26:29 v.l. ἐὰν μείνωσιν ὡς κἀγώ if they remain as I am 1 Cor 7:8; cp. 10:33; 11:1. Sim. διὰ τοῦτο κἀγὼ οὐ παύομαι for that reason I do not cease Eph 1:15; cp. 1 Th 3:5.

④ I in particular or I, for instance τί ἔτι κἀγὼ ὡς ἁμαρτωλὸς κρίνομαι; Ro 3:7.

⑤ if I, as introduction to what is in effect a conditional clause κἀγὼ ὑμῖν παραδώσω αὐτόν if I hand him over to you Mt 26:15 (cp. SIG 1168, 69f τί μοι δωσεῖς, αἴ τύ κα ὑγιῆ ποιήσω; What will you give me, if I make you well? For interpr. of κἀγώ as introd. to a protasis s. Rob. 951.)—M-M.

παραζηλόω fut. παραζηλώσω; 1 aor. παρεζήλωσα (Hesych. = παροξύνω) provoke to jealousy, make jealous (LXX; GrBar 16:2) τινὰ ἐπί τινι someone of someone Ro 10:19 (Dt 32:21; cp. 4Q 372 I, 12). τινά someone (3 Km 14:22; Sir 30:3) 11:11 (RBell, Provoked to Jealousy ’94). τὴν σάρκα (brothers in the) flesh vs. 14. It is this mng., rather than a more general one such as make angry, that we have 1 Cor 10:22 ἢ παραζηλοῦμεν τ. κύριον or shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? i.e. by being untrue to him and turning to second-rate divinities (daemons). The rhetorical structure here relies heavily on Gr-Rom. understanding that a δαίμων is a service-oriented divinity of a second order, a ‘satrap’, as Celsus later called it (Orig., C. Cels. 8, 35, 6). With sharp satire Paul says that God has reason to be jealous if the Corinthians engage in civil feasts where sacrifice is made to mere secondary divinities καὶ οὐ θεῷ (vs. 20), which is designedly ambiguous, referring either to deity generically (a god) or to the supreme deity of biblical tradition. The Corinthians are in effect insulting ‘the Lord’.—DELG s.v. ζῆλος. M-M. TW.

φωνή, ῆς, ἡ (s. prec. entry; Hom.+).

① an auditory effect, sound, tone, noise the source of which is added in the gen.: of musical instruments (Pla., Rep. 3, 397a ὀργάνων; Eur., Tro. 127 συρίγγων; Plut., Mor. 713c ψαλτηρίου καὶ αὐλοῦ; Aristoxenus, Fgm. 6; Paus.

Cp. 1 Cl 27:7 (Ps 18:4). ἔσομαι φωνή I will be just a meaningless sound (in contrast to Ignatius functioning as a λόγος θεοῦ [=meaningful expression of God] if his adherents abstain from pleas in his behalf) IRo 2:1 (s. ἠχώ).

TestJob 40:9; TestIss 1:4) Mt 2:18 (Jer 38:15). μεγάλη φωνὴ ἐγένετο ἐν τ. οὐρανῷ GPt 9:35.—Of musical instruments it is said that they φωνὴν διδόναι produce sound (in ref. to mere sonant capability in contrast to distinguishable notes) 1 Cor 14:7f.—In Rv we have ἀστραπαὶ καὶ φωναὶ καὶ βρονταί (cp. Ex 19:16) 4:5; 8:5; 11:19; 16:18 (are certain other sounds in nature thought of here in addition to thunder, as e.g. the roar of the storm? In Ex 19:16 φωναὶ κ. ἀστραπαί are surely thunder and lightning. But in Ex 9:23, 28; 1 Km 12:18 the mng. of φωναί remains unclear. Cp. also Esth 1:1d φωναί, βρονταί).—Freq. in imagery: of wind sound J 3:8; cp. Ac 2:6. Of thunderclap (1 Km 7:10; GrBar 6:13) Rv 6:1; 14:2c; 19:6c. Of roar of water (Ezk 1:24b) 1:15b; 14:2b; 19:6b.

ἀπόστολος, ου, ὁ (s. ἀποστέλλω). In older Gk. (Lysias, Demosth.) and later (e.g. Posidon.: 87 Fgm. 53 p. 257, 21 Jac. [Strabo 3, 5, 5]) ὁ ἀ. is a naval expedition, prob. also its commander (Anecd. Gr. 217, 26). τὸ ἀπόστολον with (Pla., Ep. 7, 346a) or without (Vi. Hom. 19) πλοῖον means a ship ready for departure. In its single occurrence in Jos. (Ant. 17, 300; it is not found elsewh. in Jewish-Gk. lit.) it prob. means ‘sending out’; in pap mostly ‘bill of lading’ (s. Preisigke, Fachwörter 1915), less freq. ‘certificate of clearance (at a port)’ (BGU V §64 [II A.D.]=Gnomon des Idios Logos). It can also be ‘letter of authorization (relating to shipping)’: Mitt-Wilck. I/2, 443, 10 (15 A.D.); PHerm 6, 11f (cp. Dig. 49, 6, 1 litteras dimissorias sive apostolos). In contrast, in isolated cases it refers to persons who are dispatched for a specific purpose, and the context determines the status or function expressed in such Eng. terms as ‘ambassador, delegate, messenger’ (Hdt. 1, 21; 5, 38; Synesius, Providence 2, 3 p. 122a ἀπόστολοι of ordinary messengers; Sb 7241, 48; BGU 1741, 6 [64 B.C.]; 3 Km 14:6A; Is 18:2 Sym.). Cp. KLake, The Word Ἀ.: Beginn. I 5, ’33, 46–52. It is this isolated usage that is preferred in the NT w. nuances peculiar to its lit. But the extensive use of ἀποστέλλω in documents relating to pers. of merit engaged in administrative service prob. encouraged NT use of the noun, thus in effect disavowing assoc. w. the type of itinerant philosophers that evoked the kind of pejorative term applied by Paul’s audience Ac 17:18.
