Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

θέρμη [page 290] We have no ex. of this subst. = heat, as in Act_28:3 (see Hobart, p. 287 f. for medical exx.), but it is common in connexion with public baths, e.g. P Oxy I. 54 .14 (A.D. 201) εἰς ἐπιμέλειαν ἐπισκευῆς καὶ κατασκευῆς Ἁδριανῶν θερμῶν , to superintend the repairs and fixtures of the baths of Hadrian (Edd.), ib. III. 473 .5 (A.D. 138 160) τῆ [ς ] τῶν μειζόνων θερμῶν ἐπιμελείας , ib. VI. 896 .8 (A.D. 316), τοῦ εὐτυχῶς ἐπισκευαζομένου Τραιανῶν Ἁδ̣ρ̣ι̣α̣ν̣ῶν θερμῶν δημοσίου τῆς αὐτῆς πόλεως βαλανίου . With the rare form θέρμη Rutherford ( NP , p. 198) compares κάκη and λεύκη , λεύκαι being applied to a form of leprosy (like the English term the blues ) : so in MGr ζέστη = heat, ψύχρα = cold weather.
