Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

νεότης [page 424] The phrase ἐκ νεότητος , from youth upwards, as in Mar_10:20 al. , is found as early as Homer ( ll. xiv. 86) : cf. P Tebt II. 276 .39 (astrological ii/iii A.D.) ἀπὸ νε [ότ ]η̣τ̣ο̣ς̣, PSI VI. 685 .7 (iv/A.D.) ἐν τῷ τῆς νεότ ?]ητός μου χρόνῳ , and Kaibel 322 .3 τήνδ ἄρ᾽ ἐμὴν νεότητα πατὴρ Παιδέρως ἐνέγραψεν ( imaginem iuvenilem ). See also Didache iv. 9 ἀπὸ νεότητος διδάξεις τὸν φόβον τοῦ θεοῦ . As showing that νεότης ( 1Ti_4:12 ) may cover mature age, see Ramsay cited s.v. νέος , and cf. Iren. c. Haer. ii. 22 triginta annorum aetas prima indolis est iuvenis et extenditur usque ad quadragesimum annum. MGr νιότη , youth.
