A specification of the number of days is thrust into the discourse in the nominative, as it were adverbially and without any grammatical connection, (ef. Fritzsche on Mk. p. 310 sq.; W. 516 (481) and § 62, 2; [B. 139 (122)]): ἤδη ἡμέραι (Rec. ἡμέρας, by correction) τρεῖς, Mt.xv. 32; Mk. viii. 2; ὡσεὶ ἡμέραι ὀκτώ, Lk. ix. 28. ἡμερῶν διαγενομένων τινῶν, certain days having intervened, Acts xxv. 13. ἡμέρα and ἡμέραι are used w. the gen. of a noun denoting a festival or some solemnity usually celebrated on a fixed day: τῶν ἀζύμων, Acts xii. 33 τῆς πεντεκοστῆς, Acts ii. 1; xx. 163; τοῦ σαββάτου, Lk. xiii. 14, 16; Jn. xix. 315; ἡ κυριακὴ ἡμέρα, the Lord’s day, i. e. the day on which Christ returned to life, Sunday therefore, Rey. i. 10; the foll. phrases also have reference to sacred or festival days: κρίνειν ἡμέραν παρ᾽ ἡμέραν. to exalt one day above another, and κρίνειν πᾶσαν ἡμέραν. to esteem every day sacred, Ro. xiv. 5; φρονεῖν τὴν ἡμέραν, to regard a particular day that is selected for religious services, Ro. xiv. 6; ἡμέρας παρατηρεῖσθαι, to 78 ἡμέρα observe days, Gal. ἵν. 10. After the Hebr. usage, which in reference to a definite period of time now elapsed speaks of a certain number of days as fulfilled or completed (see Gesenius s. v. x0), we have the phrases ἐπλήσθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τῆς λειτουργίας, the days spent in priestly service, Lk. i. 23 (when he had been employed in sacred duties for the appointed time) ; rod περιτεμεῖν αὐτόν, for him to be circumcised, Lk. ii. 21; τοῦ καθαρισμοῦ αὐτῶν, ib. 22; συντελεσθεισῶν ἡμερῶν, Lk. iv. 2; τελειωσάντων τὰς ἡμέρας, when they had spent there the time appointed, Lk. ii. 43; ἐν τῷ συμπληροῦσθαι τὰς ἡμ. τῆς ἀναλήψεως αὐτοῦ, when the number of days was now being completed which the reception of Jesus into heaven required, i. e. before which that reception could not oceur, Lk. ix. 51; ἡ ἐκπλήρωσις τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῦ ἁγνισμοῦ, the fulfilment of the days required for the purification, Acts xxi. 26; συντελοῦνται ai ἡμέραι, ib. 27; ἐν τῷ συμπληροῦσθαι τ. ἡμέραν τῆς πεντεκοστῆς, when the measure of time needed for the day of Pentecost was being completed, i. e. on the very day of Pentecost, Acts ii. 1. As in some of the exx. just adduced ἡμέρα is joined to the gen. of a thing to be done or to happen on a certain day, so also in ny. τοῦ ἐνταφιασμοῦ, Jn. xii. 7; ἀναδείξεως. Lk. i. 80. with gen. of pers., ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ σου [but 1, T Tr WH om. σου] in the day favorable for thee, the day on which salvation is offered thee and can be obtained, Lk. xix. 42 (Polyb. 18, 5, 8 μὴ παρῇς τὸν καιρόν .. . σὴ νῦν ἐστιν ἡμέρα, σὸς ὁ καιρός ; “meus dies est, tempore accepto utimur” Sen. Med. 1017). 3. of the last day of the present age (see αἰών, 3), the day in which Christ will return from heaven, raise the dead, hold the final judgment, and perfect his kingdom, the foll. expressions are used: ἡ ἡμέρα, simply, Ro. xiii. 12; Heb. x. 25, cf. 1 Th. ν. 4; (ἡ) ἡμέρα τοῦ κυρίου, Χριστοῦ, Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, Lk. xvii. 24 ΒΟ Ύ Tr WH org.; 1 Co. 1. 8; ν. δ; 2 Οο. 1.14: Phil. i.6,10; 1 Th.v.2; 2Th.ii. 2; 2 Pet.iii.10; ἡ ἡμέρα κυρίου ἡ μεγάλη, Acts ii. 20 (fr.

ἑπτάκις. See s.v. ἑβδομηκοντάκις, and with reference to W. C. Allen’s contention that in Mt 182? we are to understand 70 x 7, add (from Pro/eg. p. 107) a further parallel for cardinal in place of adverb from BGU IV. 1074 (p. 119—Ilate iii/A.D.) τρισπυθιονείκης, but δεκαολυμπιονείκης, etc.
