λοίδορος [page 380] For this adj., which in the NT is confined to 1Co_5:11 ; 1Co_6:10 , we may cite Cagnat I. 307 .3 (Rome), where a certain Menophilus is described as οὐδένα λυπήσας , οὐ λοίδορα ῥήματα πέμψας . Cf. also Test. xii. patr. Benj. v. 4 ἐὰν γὰρ ὑβρίσει ἄνδρα ὅσιον μετανοεῖ , ἐλεεῖ γὰρ ὁ ὅσιος τὸν λοίδωρον καὶ σιωπᾷ , for if any one does violence to a holy man, he repenteth; for the holy man is merciful to his reviler, and holdeth his peace (Charles).
