But the mention of tiffs fact is at variance with the connection. Paul is endeavoring to show that the passage he has just before quoted, Psalm 67:19 (Psalms 68:19), must be understood of Christ, not of God, because 'an ascent into heaven' necessarily presupposes a descent to earth (which was made by Christ in the incarnation), whereas God does not leave his abode in heaven. Accordingly, τά κατώτερα τῆς γῆς denotes, the lower parts of the universe, which the earth constitutes — τῆς γῆς being a genitive of apposition; cf. Winer 's Grammar, § 59, 8 a.; Grimm, Institutio theol. dogmat. edition 2, p. 355ff

Hosea 12:1); (on this wind cf. Schleusner, Thesaurus ad Sept. iii., p. 297; Winer s RWB (also BB. DD. ) under the word ). Many suppose it to be referred to in James 1:11; yet the evils there mentioned are ascribed not to the καύσων, but to the ἥλιος.

(2743) καυστηριάζω: perfect passive participle κεκαυστηριασμενος, to burn in with a branding iron (τά ἵππους λύκον, a figure of a wolf Strabo 5, 1, 9, p. 215): 1 Timothy 4:2, Lachmann's stereotyped edition, T Tr WH on which passage see καυτηριάζω . (Not found elsewhere.)

2. in the Bible made of clay, earthen: Revelation 2:27 (Daniel 2:41), for which the Greeks use κεραμεοῦς, κεραμεα, κεραμεουν, and κεραμιος (others κεραμειος), cf. Lob. ad Phryn. , p. 147; (Winer 's Grammar, 99 (94)).

κεράμιον

(2765) κεράμιον, κεραμίου, τό (neuter of the add. κεραμιος, see the preceding word (others make it a diminutive from κέραμος)), an earthen vessel, a pot, jar; a jug or pitcher: with ὕδατος added, a water-pitcher, Mark 14:13; Luke 22:10. (Theophrastus , caus. plant. 3, 4, 3; οἴνου, Jeremiah 42:5 (Jeremiah 35:5); Xenophon , anab. 6, 1, 15; Demosthenes , p. 934, 26; Polybius 4, 56, 3; ἐλαίου, Josephus , Antiquities 8, 13, 2.)

κέραμος

(2766) κέραμος, κεράμου, ὁ (κεράννυμι);

1. clay, potter's earth.

2. anything made of clay, earthen ware.

3. specifically, a (roofing) tile (Thucydides , Athen. , Hdian, others); the roof itself (Aristophanes from 129 d.): so διά τῶν κεράμων, through the roof, i. e. through the door in the roof to which a ladder or stairway led up from the street (accordingly the rabbis distinguish two ways of entering a house, 'the way through the door' and 'the way through the roof' (Lightfoot Horae Hebrew, p. 601); cf. Winer s RWB, under the word Dach; Keim , ii., p. 176f (English translation 3:215; Edersheim, Jesus the Messiah, i., 501f; Jewish Social Life, p. 93ff)), Luke 5:19. Mark (ii. 4) describes the occurrence differently (see ἀποστεγάζω ), evidently led into error by misapprehending the words of Luke. (But, to say nothing of the improbability of assuming Mark's narrative to be dependent on Luke's, the alleged discrepance disappears if Luke's language is taken literally, through the tiles (see διά , A. I. 1); he says nothing of the door in the roof. On the various views that have been taken of the details of the occurrence, see B. D. (especially American edition) under the word ; Dr. James Morison, Commentary on Mark, at the passage cited.)

κεράννυμι

(2767) κεράννυμι (κεραννύω): 1 aorist ἐκέρασα; perfect passive κεκέρασμαι (for the more common κέκραμαι, cf. Lob. ad Phryn. , p. 582; Alexander Buttmann (1873) Ausf. Sprchl. ii., p. 214; Krüger , § 40, under the word, i., p. 175; (Veitch , under the word)); (from Homer down);

[Synonyms: see κεράννυμι , μιγυυμι : in strict usage κερ. denotes such a mixing as combines the ingredients into a new compound, chemical mixture; μίγν. such a mixing as merely blends or intermingles them promiscuously, mechanical mixture.]

κέρας

a. properly: of animals, Revelation 5:6; Revelation 12:3; Revelation 13:1, Revelation 13:11; Revelation 17:3, Revelation 17:7, Revelation 17:12, Revelation 17:16.

b. Since animals (especially bulls) defend themselves with their horns, the horn with the Hebrews (and other nations) is a symbol of strength and courage, and is used as such in a variety of phrases (Psalms 88:18 (Psalms 89:18); Psalm 131:17 (Psalms 132:17); Psalms 148:14; 1 Samuel 2:10; Sir. 47:5, 7, 11; 1 Macc. 2:48, etc.; cf.

2. the name of the fruit of the κερατέα or κερατεια (or κερατια), the Ceratonia sillqua (Linn.) or carob tree (called also St. John's Bread (from the notion that its pods, which resemble those of the 'locust', constituted the food of the Baptist)). This fruit is shaped like a horn and has a sweet taste; it was (and is) used not only in fattening swine, but as an article of food by the lower classes: Luke 15:16 (A. V. husks); cf. Winer s RWB, under the word Johannisbrodbaum; (B. D. (especially American edition) under the word ).

κερδαίνω

(2770) κερδαίνω: (future κερδήσω, James 4:13 Rec.^bez ^elz L T Tr WH ; see also below); 1 aorist ἐκέρδησα (an Ionic form from κερδάω, which later writers use for the earlier ἐκερδανα, see Lob. ad Phryn. , p. 740; Alexander Buttmann (1873) Ausf. Sprchl. ii., p. 215; Winer s Grammar, 87 (83); (Veitch , under the word)), once 1 aorist subjunctive κερδάνω (1 Corinthians 9:21 L T Tr (but WH (cf. also Griesbach note) read the future κερδάνω, cf. Buttmann , 60 (53); § 139, 38)); 1 future passive κερδηθήσομαι (the subjunctive κερδηθήσωνται, 1 Peter 3:1 R G is a clerical error (cf. references under the word καίω, at the beginning), for which L T Tr WH have restored κερδηθήσονται (cf.

b. metaphorically,

α. with nouns signifying loss, damage, injury, it is used of the gain arising from shunning or escaping from the evil (where we say to spare oneself, be spared): τήν ὕβριν ταύτην καί ζημίαν, Acts 27:21; τό γέ μιανθῆναι τάς χεῖρας κερδαίνειν, to avoid the crime of fratricide, Josephus , Antiquities 2, 3, 2; ζημίαν, to escape a loss, Euripides , Cycl. 312; other examples in Kypke , Observations, ii., p. 139f

β. τινα, to gain anyone i. e. to win him over to the kingdom of God, which none but the placable enter, Matthew 18:15; to gain one to faith in Christ, 1 Peter 3:1; 1 Corinthians 9:19-22; Χριστόν, to gain Christ's favor and fellowship, Philippians 3:8. Not found in the O. T.

κέρμα

(2772) κέρμα, κερματος, τό (κείρω to cut into bits), small pieces of money, small coin, change; generally and collectively, τό κέρμα money: John 2:15, where L marginal reading Tr WH τά κερματα; (Aristophanes , Demosthenes , Josephus , others). Cf. the full exhibition of the use of the word given by Fischer, De vitiis lexicorum N. T. etc., p. 264ff

κερματιστής

(2773) κερματιστής, κερματιστου ὁ (κερματίζω) (to cut into 'small pieces, to make small change)), a money-changer; money-broker: John 2:14. In the court of the Gentiles ((see ἱερόν , and Edersheim, Jesus the Messiah, i. 244f)) in the temple at Jerusalem were the seats of those who sold such animals for sacrifice as had been selected, examined, and approved, together with incense, oil, and other things needed in making offerings and in worship; and the magnitude of this traffic had introduced the banker's or broker's business; (cf. BB. DD. under the word; especially Edersheim as above, p. 367ff). (Nicet. annal. 7, 2, p. 266, Bekker edition; Max. Tyr. diss. 2, p. 15, Markland edition.)

1. to bring under heads, to sum up, to summarize (Thucydides , Aristotle , others).

2. in an unusual sense, to smite or wound in the head: Mark 12:4. It is of no use to appeal to the analogy of the verb γναθόω, which means εἰς γναθους τύπτω to smite on the cheek, since κεφαλαισον is nowhere used of the head of the body. Tdf. (WH ) (after manuscripts א B L ) have adopted ἐκεφαλίωσαν (from κεφάλιον, equivalent to κεφαλίς, which see). But neither κεφαλιόω nor κεφαλίζω has yet been noted in any Greek authority. Cf.

Since the loss of the head destroys the life, κεφαλή is used in phrases relating to capital and extreme punishments: so in τό αἷμα ὑμῶν ἐπί τήν κεφαλήν ὑμῶν (see αἷμα , 2 a., p. 15{b}), Acts 18:6, and similar phrases in classical Greek; see Passow , under the word, p. 1717{a}; Pape under the word, 3; (Liddell and Scott, under the word, I. 3 and 4). Metaphorically, anything supreme, chief, prominent; of persons, master, lord: τίνος, of a husband in relation to his wife, 1 Corinthians 11:3; Ephesians 5:23; of Christ, the lord of the husband, 1 Corinthians 11:3 (cf. Buttmann , 124f (109)); of the church, Ephesians 4:15; Ephesians 5:23; Colossians 2:19 (cf.

2. the highest part, extremity or end of anything; as the capital of a column, 1 Kings 7:9, 1 Kings 7:31 etc.; Geoponica 14, 6, 6; hence, the tips or knobs (theumbilici of the Romans (or rather the cornua; see Gardthausen, Griech. Palaeogr., p. 52f; Rich, Dictionary, under the word umbilicus)) of the wooden rod around which parchments were rolled seem to have been called κεφαλίδες, because they resembled little heads; so that

3. the Alexandrian writers transferred the name κεφαλίς to the roll or volume itself: ἐν κεφαλίδι βίβλου, Hebrews 10:7 (from the Sept. of Psalms 39:8 (Psalms 40:8) for בִּמְגִלַּת־סֵפֶר, as in Ezekiel 2:9, and without βιβλίου, Ezekiel 3:1-3; Ezekiel 2:1-10 Esdr. 6:2 (cf.
