Thayer's Greek Lexicon

ὅλος, ὅλῃ, ὅλον, the Sept. for λΘΜμ (from Pindar (Homer) down), whole (all): with an anarthrous substantive five (six) times in the N. T., viz. ὅλον ἄνθρωπον, Joh_7:23; ἐνιαυτόν ὅλον, Act_11:26; ὅλῃ Ἱερουσαλήμ, ; διετίαν ὅλην, ; ὅλους οἴκους, Tit_1:11; (to which add, δἰ ὅλης νυκτός, Luk_5:5 L T Tr WH). usually placed before a substantive which has the article: ὅλῃ ἡ Γαλιλαία, Mat_4:23; ὅλῃ ἡ Συρία, ; καθ' ὅλην τήν πόλιν, Luk_8:39; ὅλον τό σῶμα, Mat_5:29; Mat_6:22; Luk_11:34; 1Co_12:17; Jas_3:2, etc.; (ὅλῃ ἡ ἐκκλησία, Rom_16:23 L T Tr WH); ὅλην τήν ἡμέραν, Mat_20:6; Rom_8:36; ὅλος ὁ νόμος, Mat_22:40; Gal_5:3; Jas_2:10; ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ καρδία σου, Mat_22:37; ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας σου, Mar_12:30, and many other examples it is placed after a substantive which has the article (Winers Grammar, 131 (124) note; Buttmann, § 125, 6): ἡ πόλις ὅλῃ, Mar_1:33; Act_19:29 (Rec.); (the distinction which Krüger, § 50,11, 7 makes, viz. that ἡ ὅλῃ πόλις denotes the whole city as opposed to its parts, but that ὅλῃ ἡ πόλις and ἡ πόλις ἡ ὅλῃ denotes the whole city in opposed to other ideas, as the country, the fields, etc., does not hold good at least for the N. T. where even in ἡ πόλις ὅλῃ the city is opposed only to its parts); add the following examples: Mat_16:26; Mat_26:59; Luk_9:25; Luk_11:36 a; Joh_4:53; Rom_16:23 (R G); 1Jn_5:19; Rev_3:10; Rev_6:12 G L T Tr WH; . It is subjoined to an adjective or a verb to show that the idea expressed by the adjective or verb belongs to the whole person or thing under consideration: Mat_13:33; Luk_11:36 b; Luk_13:21; Joh_9:34; Joh_13:10, (Xenophon, mem. 2, 6, 28). Neuter τοῦτο δέ ὅλον, Mat_1:22; Mat_21:4 (where G L T Tr WH omit ὅλον); ; δἰ ὅλου, throughout, Joh_19:23.

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ὅλος [page 446] P Grenf II. 77 .30 (iii/iv A.D.) (= Selections , p. 121) τῆς ὅλης δα [πά ]νης , the whole outlay, P Oxy VI. 903 .4 (iv/A.D.) ἐπὶ ὅλας ἑ [πτ ]ὰ ἡμέρας , for seven whole days, and Priene 112 .98 (after B.C. 84) διὰ τοῦ χειμῶνος ὅλου , during the whole winter (cf. Luk_5:5 ). See also P Thead 3 .31 (A.D. 299), where, at the end of a deed of sale, the vendor announces ἔγραψα τὰ ὅλα . With the use of ὅλος in Joh_9:34 ; Joh_13:10 , we may compare P Fay 119 .6 ( c. A.D. 100) χόρτον σαπρὸν καὶ ὥλον ( l. ὅλον ) λελυμένον , rotten hay, the whole of it decayed (Edd.). Other exx. are P Tebt I. 33 .16 (B.C. 112) (= Selections , p. 31), where the instructions for the entertainment of a Roman visitor are summed up in the words τὸ δ᾽ ὅλον ἐ̣π̣ι̣, π̣α̣ν̣[των ] τὴν μεγίστην φροντίδα ποιουμένου τοῦ εὐδοκοῦν̣[τ ]α̣ τὸν ὰ̣ν̣δ̣ρ̣α̣ κατασταθῆ [ναι , in general take the greatest pains in everything that the visitor may be satisfied (Edd.). P Ryl II. 133 .19 (A.D. 33) ἐξ οὗ κινδυνεύει τῷ ὅλωι ἐξαρθῆνα [ι , whereby there is a risk of its (viz. a dam s) being entirely carried away (Edd.), and ill. 152 .14 (A.D. 42) τοῖς ὅλιος ἠφάνισαν , utterly destroyed it, of damage done by an inroad of sheep. In P Oxy VI. 936 .20 (iii/A.D.) οὐδὲ Φιλόξενον ὅλ᾽ ἐξ ὅλων οὐχ̣ εὗρον , the editors render, I have entirely failed to find Philoxenus, and compare ib. 893 .6 (vi/vii A.D.) οὐδέν [α ] λόγον ὑπὲρ οἱασδήποτε ὅλον τὸ σύνολον πράγματος , no ground of complaint on any matter of any kind whatsoever. For the interchange of ὅλος and πᾶς cf. P Tebt II. 418 .4 (iii/A.D.) πρὸ τῶν ὅλων τὸ προσκύνημά σου ποιῶ , for the usual πρὸ πάντων , P Lond 404 .15 ( c. A.D. 346) (=II. p. 305) ἀσπάζομαι . . . πάντας τοὺς ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ ὅλους κατ᾽ ὄνομα , and P Iand 13 .20 (iv/A.D.) πάντες οἱ ἀδελφοί σου κατ᾽ ὄνομα ὅλ [οι . . . For δι᾽ ὅλου , as in Joh_19:23 , see P Oxy I. 53 .10 (A.D. 316) where a persea tree is reported on as διόλου ξηραντῖσαν , quite dried up. Διόλου is found in Cercidas (iii/B.C.), and survives in MGr. In MGr ὅλος in many districts takes the form οὕλος (Thumb Handbook , p. 97), which is similar to the Ionic and Epic form οὖλος , from *ὁλ Ϝο ς : cf. Lat. salvus, solidus (Boisacq, p. 699). We may add that the compound ὁλοσχερής is fully illustrated in Linde Epic. p. 13 f. : for the adv. see Cicero ad Att. vi. 5. 2.
