Abbott-Smith Greek Lexicon

Κάρπος, -ου, ὁ Carpus: II Ti 4:13.†

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

καρπός is common in the sense of “" fruit,” ‘* produce ’’ of the land generally, e.g. P Eleph 1415 (Ptol.) τῆς δὲ γῆς κυριεύσει Kal τῶν καρπῶν (A.D. 54-67), or, more particularly, of an oliveyard, P Ryl II. 130! (a.p. 31) ἐτρύγησαν ἐκ τῶν καρπῶν οὐκ ὀλίγην ἐλᾶν, or of a vineyard, P Fay 1275 (ii/iii A.D.) τοῦ καρποῦ τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος. The phrase EvA([vev κ]αρπῶν is used in OG/S 5515 (iii/B.c.) with reference to tree-fruits, such as apples, etc.; see Dittenberger’s note ad /. and cf. PST V. 528'°(iii/B.C.) περὶ τοῦ καρποῦ τοῦ ξυλικοῦ, apparently the tax ξυλίνων καρπῶν. Another ex. of the sing. is P Oxy XIV. 1632! (A.D. 353) καρπὸν φύί -- οί)νικος χωρίων σου δύο, “186 date-crop of your two estates” (Edd.). For the metaphorical usage Rouffiac (p. 51) cites Préeve 11214 (after B.C. 84) συνιδὼν δὲ ὅτι μόνη μεγίστους ἀποδίδωσιν ἡ ἀρετὴι καρποὺς καὶ χάριτας : cf. Jas 3!7f, α΄. We have no example of καρπός = “‘ profit,’’ *‘credit,’’ as in Phil 417 (‘‘ the interest which is accruing to your credit,” Moule CG7 ad 1), but, as showing how easily this sense might arise, we may quote the corresponding use of καρπεία in P Petr III. 53 (p)§ (ili/B.C.) π]ρὸς τὰς καρπείας ἃς... . ἡμᾶς κομίζεσθαι ἐκ τοῦ [ἱ]εροῦ, ‘‘ with respect to the profits which we should obtain from the temple ’’ (Edd.) : cf. also καρπίζομαι in P Ryl IT. 11976 (A.D. 54-67) μέχρι νῦν καρπίζεται τὴν αὐτὴν ὑποθήκην ἀφ᾽ ἧς ἀπηνέγκατο εἰς λόγον ἀργυ(ρίου) (ταλάντων) é, ‘he continues up to the present to enjoy the mortgage aforesaid by which he has profited to the extent of 5 talents ’’ (Edd.). For the adj. κάρπιμος see Kazbel 1039 s.v. θερίζω.
