παραβολεύομαι: 1 aorist middle participle παραβολευσάμενος; to be παράβολος i. e. one who rashly exposes himself to dangers, to be venturesome, reckless (cf. Winers Grammar, 93 (88); Lob. ad Phryn., p. 67); recklessly to expose oneself to danger: with a dative of respect, τῇ ψυχή, as respects life; hence, to expose one's life boldly, jeopard life, hazard life, Php_2:30, G L T Tr WH for the παραβουλευσάμενος of Rec.; on the difference between these readings cf. Gabler, Kleinere theol. Schriften, i., p. 176ff. This verb is not found in the Greek writers, who say παραβάλλεσθαι, now absolutely, to expose oneself to danger (see Passow, under the word παραβάλλω, 2; Liddell and Scott, ibid. II.), now with an accusative of the thing (to risk, stake), as ψυχήν, Homer, Iliad 9, 322; σῶμα καί ψυχήν, 2Ma_14:38 (see other examples in Passow (and Liddell and Scott), the passage cited); now with a dative of reference, ταῖς ψυχαῖς, Diodorus 3, 35; τῇ ἐμαυτοῦ κεφαλή, ἀργυρίῳ, Phryn. ed. Lob., p. 238; (cf. Lightfoot on Philippians, the passage cited).

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
παραβολεύομαι [page 480]
expose myself to danger (cf. classical παραβάλλομαι ), occurs in the NT only in Php_2:30 , but is cited by Deissmann ( LAE , p. 84 n. .5 ) from an Olbian inscr. of ii A.D. which is under no suspicion of appropriating a coinage of a NT writer Latyschev I. 21 .26 ff. , where it is said of a certain Carzoasus ἀλλὰ καὶ (μέχρι ) περάτων γῆς ἐμαρτυρήθη τοὺς ὑπὲρ φιλίας κινδύνους μέχρι Σεβαστῶν συμμαχίᾳ (for dat. see Proleg. p. 64) παραβολευσάμενος , but also to the ends of the world it was witnessed of him that in the interests of friendship he had exposed himself to dangers as an advocate in (legal) strife (by taking his clients causes even) up to emperors. The word is from παράβολος , venturesome, the verbal part expressing the energy of βάλλω , instead of being static as in παραβολή ; see s.v. παραβάλλω .
