ἈΡΧΑΙ͂ΟΣ

← Back to G. Abbott-Smith's A Manual Greek Lexicon (with Strongs) of the New Testament

ἈΡΧΑΙ͂ΟΣ: ἀρχαῖος, -αία, -αῖον [ (< ἀρχή), [in LXX chiefly for קֶדֶם;] ] original, ancient: Mt 5:21, 33, Lk 9:8, 19, Ac 15:7, 21 21:16, II Co 5:17, II Pe 2:5, Re 12:9 20:2.† SYN.: παλαιός, old, without the reference to beginning and origin contained in ἀ. The distinction is observed in π. (MM, s.v.). ἀ. is the antithesis to καινός: παλ. to νέος (v. Westc., He., 223; Cremer, 116).
