Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἀναλογία. A iii/a.D. citation may be made from P Flor I. 50%! κατὰ τὸ] ἥμισυ Kat ἀναλογίαν τῶν φοινίκων (once πρὸς a.), “proportionately.” The verb is found in P Amh II. 64:5 (A.D. 107) μὴ avadoyotvras τὴν ἐ[π]ιμέλειαν, which the editors translate “‘incapable of doing their duties.” For adjective see P Amh 11. 85!7f+ (a.p. 78) παραδεχθήσεται ἡμῖν- ἀπὸ τοῦ προκειμένου φόρου κατὰ τὸ ἀνάλογον, “a proportionate allowance shall be made to us from the aforesaid rent” (Edd.) : so in Sy// 329%! (B.c. 86), and (without τὸ) P Ryl II. 997 (iii/a.p.). Cf. Sy/7 3717? (i/a.D) ἀνάλογον πεποίηται τὴν ἐπιδημίαν τῇ . . σεμνότητι. It is open to us to write τὸ ἀνὰ λόγον (Aristotle, etc.), as the editors do in P Ryl II. 154%? (A.D. 66) κατὰ τὸ a. A. τ[ῶν μ]ηνῶν. : : ἀναλογίζομαι The adjective is only in the first stages of evolution: see LS. The adverb is found in the modern sense ‘‘ analogously” in Wisd 13°. ἀναλογίζομαι. ͵ P Yor I. 1 τ. 39 (B.c. 116) (= Chrest. II. p. 35) καὶ ἔφη, ἀναλογιζομένων τῶν χρόνων, ἀπὸ μὲν τοῦ ᾿Εἰπιφάνους ἐτῶν κὃ κτλ., ‘told off,” ‘reckoned up.” This arithmetical sense cf. λόγος = ‘‘a/c”’—is the oldest for the whole group, and it would seem that the metaphor was conscious even when the use was widened. So in Heb 123 ἀναλογίσασθε immediately follows the reference to the ‘‘ balancing,” as it were, of the προκειμένη χαρά against the tremendous cost. Cf. the simplex in Phil 48, where we are bidden to “count over” our spiritual treasure.
