Il. ec.)] to the immediately preceding subject, Christ); 2 Jn. Te ἃ. it refers to what follows; οὗτος, αὕτη ἐστί, in this appears ... that etc.; on this depends ... that ete.: foll. by ὅτι, as αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐπαγγελία, ὅτι, 1 Jn. i. 5; add, vy. 11, 14; —by iva, Jn. xv. 12; 1 Jn. iii. 11, 23; ν. 8; 2 Jn. 6; τοῦτό ἐστι τὸ ἔργον, τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ, ἵνα, In. vi. 29, 39 sq. e. it serves to repeat the subject with emphasis: οὐ πάντες of ἐξ Ἰσραήλ, οὗτοι Ἰσραήλ, Ro. ix. 6 ; add, ib. 8; ii. 14 [Lmrg. of τοιοῦτοι] ; vii. 10; Gal. iii. 7; it refers, not without special force, to a description given by a participle or by the relative ὅς, ὅστις ; which description either follows, as Mk. iv. 16, 18; Lk. viii. 15, 21; ix.9; Jn. xi. 37; foll. by a relative sentence, Jn. i. 15; 1 Pet. ν. 12;—or precedes: in the form of a participle, Mt. x. 22; xiii. 20, 22 sq.; xxiv. 13; xxvi. 23; Mk. xii. 40; Lk. ix. 48 (6... ὑπάρχων, οὗτος) ; In. vi. 46; vii. 18; xv.5; 2Jn.9; Acts xvii.7; (and RG in Rev. iii. 5); or of the relative ὅς, Mt. v.19; Mk. iii. 35; Lk. ix. 24,26; Jn. i. 33 [here Lmrg. αὐτός}; iii. 26; v. 38 Ro. viii. 30; 1 Co. vii. 20; Heb. xiii. 11; 1 Jn. ii. δ; 2 Pet. ii. 19; in the neut., Jn. viii. 26; Ro. vii. 16 1 Co. vii. 24; Phil. iv. 9; 2 Tim. ii. 2; or of a preceding ὅστις, Mt. xviii. 4; in the neut.

W-. § 23, 4. f. with αὐτός annexed, this man himself, Acts xxv. 25; plur. these themselves, Acts xxiv. 15,20; on the neut. see below, 2a.b.etce. β.: As the relat. and interrog. pron. so also the demonstrative, when it is the subject, conforms in gender and number to the noun in the predicate : οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ viol τῆς Bac. Mt. xiii. 38; add, Mk. iv. 15 sq. 18; αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ μεγάλη ἐντολή, Mt. xxii. 38; οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ πλάνος (Germ. diese sind), 2 Jn. 7. 2.

Jn. viii. 28. b. it prepares the reader or hearer and renders him attentive to what follows, which thus gets special weight (W. § 23,5): 1Jn. iv. 2; αὐτὸ τοῦτο ὅτι, Phil. i. 6 ; τοῦτο λέγω foll. by direct discourse, Gal. iii. 17 [see λέγω, II. 2 d.]. it is prefixed to sentences introduced by the particles ὅτι, ἵνα, etc.: τοῦτο λέγω or φημί foll. by ὅτι, 1 Co. i. 12 [(see λέγω u.s.); 1 Co. vii. 29]; xv. 50; γινώσκεις τοῦτο foll. by ὅτι, Ro. vi. 6; 2 Tim. iii. 1; 2 Pet. i. 20; iii. 3; λογίζεσθαι τοῦτο ὅτι, Ro. ii. 3; after ὁμολογεῖν, Acts xxiv. 14; after εἰδώς, 1 Tim. 1. 9; ἐν τούτῳ ὅτι, 1 Jn. iii. 16, 24; iv. 9 sq.; τοῦτο, ἵνα, Lk. i. 43; eis τοῦτο, ἵνα, Acts ix. 21; Ro. xiv. 9; 2 Co. ii. 9; 1 Pet. 111. 9; ἵν. δ; 1Jn. 111. 8; διὰ τοῦτο, wa, 2 Co. xiii. 10; 1 Tim. i. 16; Philem. 15; τούτων (on this neut. plur. referring to a single object see W. 162 (153); [ef.

In the same manner τοῦτο is put before an infin. with τό for the sake of emphasis [W. § 28, 5; B. § 140, 7, 9, ete.]: 2 Co. ii. 1; before a simple infin. 1 Co. vii. 37 OUTOS$ [here RG prefix τοῦ to the inf.]; before an ace. and inf. Eph. iv. 17; before nouns, as τοῦτο εὔχομαι, τὴν ὑμῶν κατάρτισιν, 2 Co. xiii. 9, cf. 1 Jn. iii. 24; v. 4. ο. καὶ τοῦτο. and this, and that too, and indeed, especially: Ro. xiii. 11; 1 Co. vi. 6, L T Tr WH also in 8; Eph. ii. 8; καὶ ταῦτα, and that too, 1 Co. vi. 8 Ree.; Heb. xi. 12; (so καὶ ταῦτα also in class. Grk. ; ef. Devar. ed. Klotz i. p. 108 ; Viger. ed. Herm. p. 176 sq.; Matthiae § 470, 6). d. ταῦτα, of this sort, such, spoken contemptuously of men, 1 Co. vi. 11 (cf. Soph. O.

Joined to nouns itis used like an adjective ; a. so that the article stands between the demonstrative and the noun, οὗτος ὁ, αὕτη ἧ, τοῦτο τό, [cf. W. § 23 fin.; B. § 127, 29]: Mt. xii. 32; xvi. 18; xvii. 21[T WH om. Tr br. the vs.]; xx. 12; xxvi. 29; Mk. ix. 29; Lk. vii. 44; x. 36; xiv. 30; xv. 24; Jn. iv. 15; vii. 46 [L WH om.

Bornemann ad loc. [who takes τοῦτο thus as representing the class, ‘this and the like;’ but cf. Meyer (ed. Weiss) ad loc. ]. b. so that the noun stands between the article and the demonstrative [ef. W. 548 (510) ]; as, of λίθοι οὗτοι, the stones which ye see lying near, Mt. iii. 9; iv. 8; add, Mt.v.19; vii. 24 [L Tr WH br. τούτους], 26, 28 ; ix. 26 [Trmrg.

Ltxt. Tr mre. br. ταῦτα) ; ἀπὸ τῆς γενεᾶς THs σκολιᾶς ταύτης, Acts ii. 401. ec. Passages in which the reading varies between οὗτος 6 and 6... οὗτος : viz. οὗτος ὁ, Mk. xiv. 30 Ltxt.

[The passages which follow, although introduced here by Prof. Grimm, are (with the exception of Acts i. 5) clearly instances of the predicative use of οὗτος ; cf. W. 110 (105) note; B. § 127, 31; Rost ὃ 98, 3 A.c. a. sq.]: τοῦτο πάλιν δεύτερον σημεῖον ἐποίησεν, Jn. iv. 54; τρίτην ταύτην ἡμέραν ἄγει; roth Ξ f. τοῦτ᾽ ἔστιν, “ ουτῶω this is the third day that Israel is passing [but see ἄγω, 3], Lk. xxiv. 21 (κεῖμαι τριακοστὴν ταύτην ἡμέραν, this is now the thirtieth day that I lie (unburied), Leian. dial. mort. 13, 3); οὐ μετὰ πολλὰς ταύτας ἡμέρας (see μετά, 1. 2 Ὁ.

μὴ οὐκ, v.s. μή, III.

οὗτος. A few of the prepositional phrases with this common demonstrative pron. may be illustrated διὰ τοῦτο, ‘on this account,” cf. P Ryl IT. 845 (a.p. 146) τὴν ἄνεσιν τὴν διὰ τοῦτο γενομένην τῶν ὑπαρχόντων, “the ensuing remission “ OUT@S, O’.TO@ of the lands’ (Edd.): ἐκ τούτου, ‘for this reason,’’ Jn 6° cf. 26. 81°4 (c, A.D, 104) ἐκ τούτου δὲ [φανεῖρόν ἐστιν [καὶ] μηδένα χρῇζειν, “‘it is evident from this that nobody wants it’’ (Edd.), BGU 11. 423!7 (ason to his father—ii/a.D.) (= Selections, p. 91) με ἐπαίδευσας καλῶς, Kal ἐκ τούτου ἐλπίζω ταχὺ προκόσί-- par τῶν θε[ῶ]ν θελόντων, “you have brought me up well, and for this reason I hope to be quickly promoted, if the gods will”: τούτου ἕνεκα, ‘‘ for this purpose,” cf. P Oxy I. 1138 (ii/a.p.) ἐὰν δ᾽ dpa μή, ; ἅμα τῷ vide μου ἐξέρχομαι τούτου ἕνεκα, “otherwise I and my son will come for this purpose’’ (Edd.): ἐπὶ τούτων, ““upon this,” ‘in the meanwhile,” cf. PSI VI. 598! (iii/B.c. ) περὶ ὧν γράψω “Eppadider kal Ἵππωνι καὶ Ἡρακλείτωι: διωμολογήθη γὰρ ἐπὶ τούτων, where, however, the editor prefers the meaning “‘ in their presence ᾿᾿ : and κατὰ ταῦτα, “in the same way,” Lk 633 v./. cf. 26. III. 23528 (ii/a.D.) κατὰ ταῦτα δὲ ἀξιῶ, ‘and in the same way I ask.”’ The abrupt ταῦτα (sc. γίνεται) of the boy’s letter P Oxy I. 119) (ii/ili A.D.) (= Selections, p. 103) ἀμ μὴ πέμψῃς, οὐ μὴ φάγω, οὐ μὴ πείνω. ταῦτα, ‘if you don’t send, I won't eat, I won’t drink. There now,” may be paralleled from the inscrr., as C. and B. ii. p. 386, No. 232%, where a certain Gaius sums up his principles with the words—tatra, φίλοι, and 26. p. 700, No. 635, where a protest is uttered against Christian teaching in the words—ovx ἤμην" ἐγενόμην" οὐκ ἔσομαι" οὐ μέλι μοι ὁ βίος" ταῦτα. See Evans CQ xv. (1921), p. 24, and add the long metrical epitaph and curse, BCH iii. p. 144, which ends with ταῦτα, ‘so much,” in a line by itself: see Ramsay Zhe, p. 274. For the expressive at χεῖρες αὗται in Ac 20%4, “these hands ”’ (stretching them out), Field (ofes, p. 133) compares Philost. Her. Ρ- 162 (ed. Boiss.) : εἰπόντος γοῦν ποτε πρὸς αὐτὸν ᾿Αχιλλέως, Ὦ Παλάμηϑες, ἀγροικότερος φαίνῃ τοῖς πολλοῖς, ὅτι μὴ πέπασαι τὸν θεραπεύσοντα, Τί οὖν ΤΑΥ͂ΤΑ, ἔφη, ὦ ᾿Αχιλλεῦ ; τὼ χεῖρε ἄμφω προτείνας. The combination αὐτὰ ταῦτα is found in P Oxy IV. γ438 (B.C. 2) ἵνα αὐτῷ αὐτὰ ταῦτα ὑποδίξω, ‘in order that I may inform him of these very things,’’ similarly PSI III. 23528 (i/A.D.), cf. 26. IV. 3437 (B.C. 256-5) ἠσχολήμεθα πρὸς αὐτοῖς τούτοις. In P Meyer 13 (a.D. 141) an ass is sold— τοῦτον τοιοῦτον ἀναπόριφον, ‘such as it is, without the possibility of its being returned’”’: cf. P Ryl II. 158% (A.D. 1382), P Oxy I. 9538 (A.b. 129). A fem. form ταύτων, explained by Mayser Gr. p. 113 as due to false analogy with the sing., was formerly found in P Lond 2433 (B.c. 162) (=I. p. 13) περὶ ταύτων, but Wilcken (UPZ i. p. 213) now reads περὶ ταῦτ᾽ dv: see, however, P Tebt I. 24% (B.C. 117). There are traces in the inscrr. and papyri of a vulgar form τοῦτος, which survives in MGr: see Dieterich Untersuchungen, p. 197. οὕτως, οὕτω. Otrws is the general form both before vowels and consonants in the best MSS. of the NT (and of the LXX), and this usage is on the whole confirmed by the papyri. See e-g. (1) before vowels— PSI III. 171%? (ii/B.c.) τούτων δὲ οὕτως ἐχόντων, ‘‘ this being so,”’ P Oxy IV. 743° (B.c. 2) ὑπέρ σου οὕτως ὡς ὑπί(έρ) pov, ‘for you just as for me,” 2d. 11. 29414 (A.D. 22) (= Selections, p. 35) εἰ ταῦτα οὕτως ext, 7. 1. 115? (11/A.D.) (= Selections, p. 96) οὕτως ἐλυπήθην καὶ ἔκλαυσα , ουχίι ἐπὶ τῶι εὐμοίρωι ὡς ἐπὶ Διδυμᾶτος ἔκλαυσα, ‘I grieved and wept as much over the blessed one, as I wept over Didymas,” P Grenf II. 771 (iti/iv A.D.) (= Selectzons, p. 120) σ[υἹνλέξαντες ὅσα εἶχεν καὶ οὕτως ἀπέστητε, “having collected what he had you then went off”; (2) before consonants—P Petr II. 16'4 (mid. iii/B.c.) οὕτως δὲ ὑπολάμβανε, P Lond 447 (8.6. 161) (=I. p. 34) νομίζων μάλισθ᾽ οὕτως τεύξεσθαι τῶν δικαίων, P Tebt I. 245) (B.c. 117) οὕτως λήγοντες τῆς ἀγνοίας, and the striking P Oxy VII. 10657 (iii/A.D.), with its doctrine of strict reciprocity between gods and men, ἐὰν δὲ ὀλιγωρήσῃς, ὥσπερ [oli θεοὶ οὐκ ἐφίσαντό μ[ο]υ οὕτως κἀγὼ θεῶ[ν] οὐ φί[σ]ομαι, ‘if you neglect this, as the gods have not spared me, so will I not spare the gods ” (Ed.). Examples are, however, forthcoming of οὕτω (1) before consonants, e.g. P Petr II. 13 (19)? (B.c. 258-3) οὕτω γὰρ [ἔστα]ι. τυχεῖν KTA., PSI IV. 346° (B.c. 255-4) ἐπίστειλόν pot, ὅπως οὕτω ποιῶ, P Par 6341-84 (B.c. 164) (= P Petr III. p. 24) τάχα yap οὕτω πρέπει ῥηθέν, ‘for that is perhaps the proper expression ” (Mahaffy), A/agn 92 (b)*® (ii/B.c.) οὕτω κύρια elvafe τὰ] ἐψηφισμένα, and even (2) before a vowel, e.g. P Lond 4115 (p.c. 161) (=I. p. 28) ἐγένετο ἡ κρίσις οὕτω" ἀφίλεσαν κτλ., and from a late date 76. 4837° (A.D. 616) (-- 11. p. 328) διὰ τὸ οὕτω ὀρθῶς καὶ δικαίως δεδόχθαι. See further Mayser Gr. p. 242f., Cronert Mem. Herc. p. 142 n.1, Nachmanson, p. 112. Field Notes, p. 87f. discusses the translation of Jn 4® ἐκαθέζετο οὕτως.
