τιμή [page 635] (1) honour, as in Joh_4:44 : P Tebt I. 33 .4 (B.C. 112) (= Selections , p. 30) preparations for the visit of a Roman senator, who is described as ἐν μίζονι ἀξιώματι κα [ὶ ] τιμῆι κείμενος , occupying a position of highest rank and honour, and P Oxy I. 41 .17 (iii/iv A.D.) account of a popular demonstration in honour of the prytanis, who replies τὴν μὲν παρ᾽ ὑμῶν τιμὴν ἀσπάζομαι καί γε ἐπὶ τούτῳ σφόδρα χαίρω , I acknowledge with great pleasure the honour which you do me (Edd.). Hence the phrase εἰς τὴν τιμήν , out of regard for, in such passages as BGU III. 844 .19 (A.D. 83) (= Olsson Papyrusbriefe , p. 140) καλῶς δὲ ποιήσεις παρασχὼν Διοσκόρῳ χάνας ῑ εἰς ἐμὴν τειμήν , and P Giss I. 66 .11 (early ii/A.D.) ἐρωτῶ [σ ]ε εἴς τε τὴν τῶν θεῶν εὐσέβειαν καὶ εἰς ἡμετέραν̣ τιμὴν̣ ἀπολῦσαι αὐτο̣[ν . With 1Co_12:23 we may compare BGU IV. 1141 .19 (B.C. 14) εἱ̣ς̣ σὺ μέν μοι καὶ τιμὴν περιτιθεῖς . In further reference to τιμή = honour, esteem, we may cite from the inscrr. Priene 105 .16 ( c . B.C. 9) (= OGIS 458), where things are said to have been so arranged according to the divine will, ἵνα ἀφορμὴ γένοιτο τῆς εἰς τὸν Σεβαστὸν τιμῆς , that there may be an opportunity of paying honour to the Emperor (Augustus) : cf. 1Ti_1:17 , Rev_4:9 , al ., and see Rouffiac Recherches , p. 11. In C. and b . i. p. 101 Ramsay notes that in Phrygia the erection of a gravestone is regarded as a distinction and prerogative (τιμή ) of the dead man and living god. (2) price, as in Mat_27:6 : P Petr II. 38 ( b ) .2 (iii/B.C.) προσπέπτωκέ μοι . . . τὸ ἔλαιον π [ωλ ]εῖσθαι πλείονος τιμῆς τῆς ἐν τῶι προστάγμα [τι ] διασεσαφημένης , it has transpired to me that oil is sold at a higher price than that fixed in the Royal decree (Ed.), P Lond 42 .17 (B.C. 168) (= I. p. 30, UPZ i. p. 300, Selections , p. 10) εἰς πᾶν τι ἐληλυθυῖα διὰ τὴν τοῦ σίτου τιμήν , having come to the last extremity because of the high price of corn, P Fay 11 .30 ( c . B.C. 115) πραχθῆναί μοι αὐτὸν τ [ὴ ]ν ὡρισμέν [η ]ν τειμὴν τῆς ἀρ (τάβης ), that he shall be made to pay me the price fixed for each artaba (Edd.), BGU IV. 1205 .18 (B.C. 28) πέπομφά σοι τιμὴν τοῦ ἐνκοιμήτρου (δραχμὰς ) ρ̄κ̄ , ib . 1206 .14 (B.C. 28) διανδραγα [θ ]ε̣ῖτε ἐν τῆι εἰσαγῆι τῆς τιμῆς [τ ]οῦ φακοῦ καὶ ὀλώρας , P Ryl II. 229 .13 (A.D. 38) τοῦ λοιπ (οῦ ) τῆς τιμῆ (ς ) τοῦ χόρτου πρόχρησον ἕως οὗ παραγένωμαι , as to the rest of the price for the hay make provision until I come (Edd.), P Fay 122 .10 ( c . A.D. 100) ἕως ἀπολαβὼν τὸ λοιπὸν τῆς τιμ [ῆ ]ς πάλιν σοι γράψω , until I get the remainder of the price and write to you again (Edd.), ib . 90 .18 (A.D. 234) τὴν ἐπὶ τοῦ καιροῦ ἐσο (μένην ) πλ [ί ]στην τει (μήν ), the highest current price at the time being (Edd.), P Grenf II. 67 .18 (A.D. 237) (= Selections , p. 109) ἀραβῶνος [τῇ τ ]ιμῇ ἐλλογουμέν [ο ]υ̣ σ̣[ο ]ι̣ earnest money to be reckoned by you in the price, ib . 77 .17, .18 (iii/iv A.D.) (= Selections , p. 121) τιμ (ὴ ) φαρμάκου . . . τιμ (ὴ ) οἴνου , the price of medicine . . . the price of wine, in a note of funeral expenses. Swete suggests that there may be a play on the double sense of τιμή in Ev. Petr. 3 where the multitude are described as scourging Jesus and saying Ταύτῃ τῇ τιμῇ τιμήσωμεν τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ , with this honour let us honour, or at this price let us apprize, the Son of God. For τίμημα see P Grenf II. 67 .12 (hire of dancing girls A.D. 237) (= Selections , p. 108) ὑπὲρ τιμήμα [τος ] πασῶν τῶν ἡμερῶν [πυρο ]ῦ ἀρτάβας γ̄ , by way of payment for the whole period three artabae of wheat, PSI IV. 313 .5 (iii/iv A.D.) τὸ συνφωνηθὲν τίμημα μ [ετ ]αξὺ μαρτύρων , and for τίμησις see ib . 327 .10 (B.C. 259 8) τίμησ̣ις ἣν ἐλάβομεν παρὰ Βουβάλου . Note also the adj. πρόστειμος (not in LS 8 ) in P Ryl II. 244 .14 (iii/A.D.) πάντα γὰρ πρόστειμα γέγονεν , for everything has risen in price (Edd.).
