κρίσις [page 360] κρίσις in the sense of judging, trial, is found in such passages as PSI II. 173 .17 (ii/B.C.) κα [τὰ προε ]νεστῶσαν . . ἐπὶ σοῦ κρίσιν , P Oxy IX. 1203 .29 (late i/A.D.) where certain petitioners ask that no step be taken against them μέχρι κρίσεως , before the trial of the case, the curious mantic P Ryl I. 28 .165 (iv/A.D.) σφυρὸν εὐώνυμον ἐὰν ἅληται ἐν κρίσει βαρη [θ ]ε̣ι̣, ς ἔσται καὶ ἐκφεύξεται if the left ankle quiver, he will be burdened with a trial, and will be acquitted (Edd.), and OGIS 669 .39 (i/A.D.) εἰς κρίσιν ἄγεσθαι . From this it is an easy transition to the result of the judging, judgement, decision, e.g. P Petr III. 26 .8 (iii/B.C.) ἐκ κρίσεως , in accordance with a legal decision, P Oxy I. 68 .35 (A.D. 131) οὖσαν δ᾽ ἐμοὶ τὴν πρ̣ὸς αὐτὸν κρίσιν , judgement against him being entered in my favour (Edd.), P Ryl II. 78 .35 (A.D. 157) περὶ ἀπολογισμοῦ κρίσεων concerning the report of judgements, P Oxy XII. 1464 .6 ( libellus A.D. 250) κατ ]ὰ τὰ κελευσθέντα ὑπὸ τῆς θείας κρίσεως , in accordance with the orders of the divine decree, and such legal phrases as ἄνευ κρίσεως καὶ πάσης ἀντιλογίας (BGU IV. 1146 .16 B.C. 18) and ἄνευ δίκης καὶ κρίσεως καὶ πάσης εὑρησιλογίας (P Tebt II. 444 i/A.D.). An approach to the moral and ethical sense which, following the general usage of the LXX, κρίσις has in such passages as Mat_23:28 Luk_11:42 , may be traced in Michel 542 .6 (ii/B.C. ad init. ) πίστιν ἔχοντα καὶ κρίσιν ὑγιῆ , OGIS 383 .207 (mid. i/B.C.) ἣν ἀθάνατος κρίσις ἐκύρωσεν with reference to a certain ordinance, and ib. 502 .8 (ii/A.D.) μείξας τῷ φιλανθρώπῳ τὸ δίκαιον ἀκολούθως τῇ περὶ τὰς κρίσεις ἐπιμελείᾳ . For κρίσις , accusation, in Jud_1:9 , see Field Notes , p. 244. For an adj. κρίσιμος with reference to the day of judgement, see a Christian inscr. from Eumeneia in C. and B. ii. p. 514 ὃς δὲ ἂν ἐπιτηδεύσει , ἔσται αὐτῷ πρὸς τὸν ζῶντα θεὸν καὶ νῦν καὶ ἐν τῇ κρισίμῳ ήμέρᾳ . Ramsay (p. 518) remarks that the term κρίσιμος ἡμέρα seems to be used elsewhere only in the medical sense, the critical day determining the issue of the disease : cf. also Durham Menander , p. 72. MGr κρίσι , judgement ἔρχομαι στὴ κρίσι , appear before court of judgement (Thumb, Handbook , p. 337).
