παντελής, παντελές (πᾶς and τέλος), all-complete, perfect (Aeschylus, Sophocles, Plato, Diodorus, Plutarch, others; 3Ma_7:16); εἰς τό παντελές (properly, unto completeness (Winers Grammar, § 51, 1 c.)) completely, perfectly, utterly: Luk_13:11; Heb_7:25 (Philo leg. ad Gaium 21; Josephus, Antiquities 1, 18, 5; 3, 11, 3 and 12, 1; 6, 2, 3; 7, 13, 3; Aelian v. h. 7, 2; n. a. 17, 27).

παντελής pantelē s 2 x perfect, complete; εἰς τὸ παντελές , adverbially, throughout, through all time, ever, Heb_7:25 ; with a negative, at all, Luk_13:11

** παντελής , -ές ( < πᾶς , τέλος ), [in LXX : 3Ma_7:16 A * ;] all-complete, entire, perfect; εἰς τ . παντελές , completely, utterly: Luk_13:11 , Heb_7:25 (where perhaps in temp. sense, finally; v . MM , xviii).†

παντελής [page 477] The NT has this word only in the phrase εἰς τὸ παντελές , Luk_13:11 , Heb_7:25 : so in P Lond 1164 ( f ) .11 (A.D. 212) (= III. p. 161) a man sells some property ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν εἰς τὸ παντελές . This would support a temporal meaning in Heb l.c. to save finally , which suits well the πάντοτε that follows : so long as our Intercessor lives our σωτηρία is assured. Cf. Syll .3 489 .11 ( c. B.C. 234) τ̣ο̣, ν̣ ἀγῶνα π̣α̣ντελῆ , where the reference is to an interrupted contest, which had been brought to an end, and OGIS 642 .4 (end of ii/A.D.) τὸ μνημ (ε )ῖον . . . ἔκτισεν . . αὑτῷ τε καὶ υἱοῖς αὑτοῦ καὶ υἱωνοῖς εἰς τὸ παντελὲς αἰώνιον τειμήν . See also Preisigke 5357 .7 ὅσα πρὸς ἀνατροπὴν παντελῆ ἄγει τὸν συνηγορούμενον . In Lk l.c. the meaning is like that of παντελῶς in P Lille I. 26 .2 (iii/ B.C.) (= Witkowski .2 , p. 49) αὐτὴ ( sc. γῆ ) μὲν οὖν ἐστιν παντελῶς ἀπηρ [γ ]μένη ( bare, uncultivated ), P Lond 42 .27 (B.C. 168) (= I. p. 31, Selections , p. II) παντελῶς ἀηδίζομαι , I am utterly distressed, and P Oxy II. 281 .11 (A.D. 20 50) παντελῶς ὄντα ἀνέγκλητον , being blameless in all respects : cf. ib. XII. 1469 .4 (A.D. 298) παντελῶς διανύειν τὰ προσήκοντα , to accomplish in full our duties, and ib. IX. 1186 .6 (iv/A.D.) οὐ μὴν κατὰ τὸ παντελὲς ἀπηγορευμένον , not entirely forbidden (Ed.).
