It refers: 2. to quality; another i. e. one not of the same nature, form, class, kind; different (so in Greek writings from Homer down): Rom_7:23; 1Co_14:21; 1Co_15:40; 2Co_11:4; Gal_1:6; Heb_7:11; Heb_7:13; Heb_7:15; Jas_2:25; Jud_1:7.

SYN.: ἄλλος G243 , q.v. ( v. req. ut supr ., also Robertson , Gr ., 748 ff .).

ἕτερος [page 257] ἕτερος and ἀμφότεροι are claimed by Blass ( Gr. pp. 36, 179 f.) as the only surviving words in the Hellenistic age which denote duality as distinct from plurality, and abundant evidence can be cited from the Κοινή of the correct use of ἕτερος in this sense. See e.g. P Ryl II. 229 .6 (A.D. 38) ἵνα δοῖ σοι ὄνον . . ἵνα καὶ αὐτὸς δοῖ ἑτέραν (a second ass), P Amh II. 65 .6 ff. (early ii/A.D.) δίκαιον τὸν ἕτερον ἀπολυθῆναι ἐὰν ἄλλος ἀντ᾽ αὐτοῦ κατασταθῇ , it is just that one of them ( sc. two brothers) should be released, if some one else is appointed in his stead (Edd.), BGU I. 5 ii. 5 (A.D. 79 80) ἕτερον εἶναι ὁμώνυμο (ν ), another of the same name, P Fay 100 .8 (A.D. 99) τ [ῇ ] μὲν Χαριτίῳ . . [τ ]ῇ δὲ ἑτέρᾳ Χαριτίῳ , with reference to two women, both named Charition, CPR I. 11 .8 (A.D. 108) ἑτέρας . . οἰκίας , ib. 223 .19 (ii/A.D.) μέχρι [ἑ ]τέρας ἀπογραφῆς , until the next (lit. another ) census, P Tebt II. 381 .9 (A.D. 123) ἑτέρας θυγατρός , her other daughter, P Amh II. 88 .9 ff. (A.D. 128) ἐν δυσὶ κοίταις (here = σφραγῖσι , parcels ) . . ὧν μιᾶς μὲν . . ἑτέρας δὲ . ., BGU I. 194 .15 f. (A.D. 177) ἐπιστολῶν δύο , μειᾶς μὲν . . τὴν δὲ ἑτέραν . ., P Fay 164 (ii/A.D.) ἐπὶ ὄνῳ ἑνὶ φοι (νίκων ) ἀρτάβας τρεῖς καὶ ἐφ᾽ ἑτ (έρῳ ) . . . (ἀρτάβας ) δύο , and similarly ib. 165. On the other hand, ἕτερος is incorrectly used for ἄλλος in such passages as P Leid B ii. 11 (B.C. 164) ὑπὲρ ὧν ἂν προσδεώμεθα ἑτέρων , P Par 45 .5 (B.C. 153) (= Witkowski, 2 p. 82) ἠ (= εἰ ) ἕτερον θέλις λέγειν , λέγε , ib. 46 .9 (B.C. 153) (= Witkowski .2 , p. 86) οὐ ]χ ἕτερόν τινα , ἀλλὰ σὲ αὐτὸν μάρτυρα ἐπισπάσ̣ω̣, P Fay 12 .14 ( c. B.C. 103) ἑτέρους συμπαρόντας ὑπό τ̣ε̣ τῶν α̣[ὐτῶν , others besides themselves being present (Edd.), ib. 36 .11 (A.D. 111 2) ἑτέροις ἐπιχωρηθεὶς διδόναι , with power to pass on the right (of making and selling bricks) to others (Edd.), P Flor I. 99 .7 (i/ii A.D.) (= Selections , p. 71) ὁ υἱὸς ἡμῶν Κάστωρ μεθ᾽ ἑτέρων άσωτευόμενος ἐσπάνισε τὰ αὑτοῦ πάντα , my son Castor along with others has squandered all his own property in riotous living, and BGU I. 86 .25 (ii/A.D.) ὑποτίθεσθα [ι ] ἑτέροις παρασ [υ ]νχωρούντω [ν , a formula allowing liberty to alienate. Cf. Luk_8:6 ff. where even the stylist Luke substitutes ἕτερος for the correct ἄλλος of his (presumed) source-narrative ( Mar_4:5 ff. : cf. Mat_13:5 ff. ) : see Proleg. p. 79. The opposite error of using ἄλλος for ἕτερος in Luk_6:29 (so Mat_5:39 ) may be paralleled from P Grenf II. 23 a .8 f. (B.C. 107) τῆς μὲν μιᾶς . . τῆς δ᾽ ἄλλης . ., P Tor I. 8 .44 f. (ii/B.C.) υἱῶν δύο , ἑνὸς μὲν . . ἄλλου , BGU II. 456 .10 ff. (A.D. 348) φοίνικας δύο , τὸν μὲν ἕνα . . καὶ τὸν ἄλλον . ., and the Andanian inscr. Syll 653 .91 (B.C. 91) τὸν μὲν ἕνα . . τὸν δ᾽ ἄλλον of two. The readiness with which the two words could be interchanged is shown by P Oxy II. 276 .11 (A.D. 77) Φρίβι Ἡρακλήου τῷ σὺν ἄλλοις σιτολόγοις compared with P Gen I. 36 .10 (A.D. 170) παρὰ Πεκύσιος Σαταβοῦτος ἱερέως σὺν ἑτέροις ἱερεῦ [σ ]ι . Nor is it easy to differentiate them in such passages as CPR I. 103 .21 ἀπό τε ἄλλων πρασέων ἢ ἑτέρων [οἰκονομιῶν : cf. ib. 3 .19 (ii/iii A.D.), 6 .17 (A.D. 238). That however the original difference between them was often observed with great nicety even in vernacular documents is shown by the Twins petition P Par 26 .32 f. (B.C. 163 2) (= Selections , p. 16 f.; the note on l. 33 requires correction) where ἄλλοι τῶν ἐκ τοῦ Σαραπιείου (to which the Twins themselves belonged) are distinguished from ἕτεροι τῶν ἐκ τοῦ Ἀσκληπιείου , and P Ryl II. 102 i. 10, .14 (2nd half ii/A.D.) μετ᾽ ἄλ (λων ) . . μεθ᾽ ἕτερα , where, as the editors point out, the former phrase introduces extracts from the original census-lists, while the second points to details that had been omitted. Other exx. showing how readily ἕτερος from meaning the other class (of two) came to imply different in quality or kind are OGIS 458 .8 ( c. B.C. 9) ἑτέραν τε ἔδωκεν παντὶ τῶι κόσμωι ὄψιν , and P Oxy VI. 939 .13 (iv/A.D.) ἕτερα . . γράμματα , where the reference is not only to another, a second letter, but to a letter containing very different news from that previously despatched. Ἕτερος is used without a subst. in P Tebt II. 381 .14 (A.D. 123) (= Selections , p. 78) ἕτερα καθ᾽ ὃν δήποτε οὖν τρόπον , other things of whatsoever kind, following a list of articles bequeathed in a will, P Flor I. 99 .10 (i/ii A.D.) (= Selections , p. 72) ἕτερο [ν ] ἄτοπόν τι , anything else amiss, and CPR I. 32 .15 (A.D. 218) οὐδὲν δὲ ἕτερον πρακθησόμεθα (cf. Act_17:21 ). An interesting confirmation of the RV rendering of Luk_23:32 ἕτεροι κακοῦργοι δύο , two others, malefactors is afforded by P Tebt I. 41 .9 (a petition c. B.C. 119) καὶ [μ ]ετὰ τοῦ παντὸς σκυλμοῦ συνεχεῖς ἐπιλήψεις ποιουμένου τινῶν ἡμ̣ῶν καὶ ἑτέρων γυναικῶν διασείειν , to extort from some of us and from others, viz. women the petitioners are men. According to Lightfoot ( Gal. .10 , p. 76) the primary distinction between ἄλλος and ἕτερος is that the former is another as one besides, and the latter another as one of two. But Ramsay in an important discussion on Gal_1:6 f. ( Comm. p. 260 ff.) contends that this reverses the facts regarding the force of the two words when they are pointedly contrasted. In Gal l.c. he has now definitely adopted the construction given by the American Revisers in the margin ( a different gospel, which is nothing else save that there are some that trouble you ), and agrees with the opinion expressed by Professor A. W. Mair who has supplied a long list of passages from Demosthenes and others, showing that any distinction in usage between the two words results naturally from the fact that one is a positive, or absolute, word (ἄλλος ), while the other is a comparative, or relative (ἕτερος ), and further that, where this is not essential, they are used indifferently : see e.g. Demosthenes xxiii. 71 (ed. Butcher) οὔτ᾽ ἄλλος οὐδείς , but xxv. 17 ἕτερος δ᾽ οὐδὲ εἷς .
