T. p. 115), ἡ, Nain, a town of Galilee, situated at the northern base of Little Hermon; modern Nein, a petty village inhabited by a very few families, and not to be confounded with a village of the same name beyond the Jordan (Joseph.

Ναιμάν (Rec. Νεεμάν), ὁ, indecl. (Heb. נַעֲמָן), Naaman: Lk 4:27.†

Νεεμάν. See s.v. Ναιμάν. | vExOOS. Among the numerous passages that might be quoted showing how universally in the ancient world a dead body was regarded as unclean, we may mention P Tor I. 1 33 (B.c. 116), where it is said of Hera and Demeter—ats ἀθέμιτά ἐστιν νεκρὰ σώματα, ‘quae abhorrent a cadaveribus” (Ed.). in NT) we can now add such exx. as PSI V. 502% (s.c. | Other exx. of the word in this general sense are P Fay 103} , vEeKpow (iii/A.D.) λ[όγος] ἀναλώματος τοῦ νεκροῦ, “‘account of expenses for the corpse,” P Oxy I. 518 (a.D. 173) the report of a public physician who had been appointed—égibety σῶμα νεκρὸν ἀπηρτημένον ‘Iépakos, ‘‘to inspect the body of a man who had been found hanged, named Hierax”’ (Edd.) (cf. 26. III. 4758—a.p. 182), P Grenf 11. 773% (iii/iv A.D.) (= Selections, p. 120), where two men are charged with leaving their brother’s body, while carrying off his effects— kal ἐκ τούτου ἔμαθον ὅτι οὐ χάριν Tod νεκροῦ ἀνήλθατε ἀλλὰ χάριν τῶν σκευῶν αὐτοῦ, ‘‘and from this I learned that it was not on account of the dead man you came here, but on account of his goods,’’ and from the inscrr. Sy// 43814 (c. B.C. 400) τὸν δὲ νεκρὸν κεκαλυμμένον φερέτω σιγᾶν. In /HS xix. p. 92, a sepulchral inser. of ii/A.D., we have χαῖρέ pou μῆτερ γλυκυτάτη Kal φροντίζετε ἡμῶν ὅσα ἐν vexpots—the correlative of the NT ἐκ νεκρῶν. [Note the alternation of sing. and plur. where the reference is identical (cf. Milligan 7hess. p. 131 f.).] With the use of νεκρός in Lk 15% 32, Rev 128, 28, 31, cf. BGU IV. 1024%H-26 (iv/v A.D.) ἐλέησα τὴν δυσδ[αίμον]α, ὅτι Lara [π]ροσεφέρετο τοῖς Bov[Aopévots] ὡς νεκρά. In C. and B. ii. 3431: (= p. 477) a certain Menogenes Eustathes expresses his views on life in the spirit of Epicurean philosophy— τὸ ζῆν ὁ ζήσας kal θανὼν ζῇ τοῖς φίλοις" ὃ κτώμενος δὲ πολλὰ μὴ τρυφῶν σὺν τοῖς φίλοις, οὗτος τέθνηκε περιπατῶν καὶ ζῇ νεκροῦ βίον Ὁ “The Christian spirit which objected to free enjoyment of life for self and friends is stigmatized as ‘death in life’”’ (Ed.). Cf. also Soph. Phzloct, 1018 ἄφιλον ἔρημον ἄπολιν ἐν ζῶσιν νεκρόν. Νεκρός is virtually = θνητός in Epict. i. 3. 3, li. 19. 27 (cited by Sharp, p. 54). For a subst. νεκρία (not in LS), cf. P Par 2215 (B.c. 165) τῶν δὲ ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ. . . παρακομισάντων αὐτὸν els τὰς κατὰ Μέμφιν νεκρίας, μεχρὶ τοῦ νῦν οὐ τετόλμηκεν αὐτὸν ἡ Νέφορις θάψαι, P Tor I. τ᾿: 39 (B.c. 116) see note on p. 85, and Preisigke 5216® (i/B.c.), and for νεκροτάφος, ‘‘ gravedigger,” cf. P Grenf 11. 737 (late iii/A.p.) (= Sedections, p- 118), 2b. 77° (iii/iv A.D.) (= Selections, p. 120), and see P Ryl II. 65? note, and Otto Priester i. p. 108 f. VEXOOW. To Rom 4? κατενόησεν τὸ ἑαυτοῦ σῶμα [ἤδη] vevexpwpeγον, Deissmann (2.4.5, p. 94) finds a striking parallel in 76 III. 2, No. 1355 ἄνθρωπε. . . μή μου παρέλθῃς σῶμα τὸ γεν[εἸκρ[ὠ]Ἱμένον, “Ὁ man, pass not by my body, now a ” corpse.
