Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
νουνεχῶς in the NT (Lk 254), arose from the slurring of ε into a » sound, just as βορέας much earlier produced (Bopyas) Boppas. Neooods is seen in Kazbel 1033 (iii/B.c.) θ]ούροις πτερύγεσσι νεοσσόν, and Herodas vii. 48, and νεοσσοπῶλις, “seller of young birds” in 26. vi. 99. For the LXX usage cf. Thackeray Gr. i. p. 98. Neooods <*veFo-Kids, ‘*a new occupant of a nest,’’ from κεῖμαι (Boisacq, p. 664).
