36.28 · Guide, Discipline, Follow · Obey, Disobey

to disobey, to break the law, to transgress, disobedience, transgression to act contrary to established custom or law, with the implication of intent Languages differ appreciably in the way in which they speak of disobeying or transgressing a law. It is rarely possible to speak of ‘breaking a law,’ since nothing is actually done to the law in the process of transgression, but languages do employ such expressions as ‘to tramp on a law,’ ‘to ridicule a law,’ and ‘to laugh at a law.’ See also discussion at 36.29.

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

παραβαίνω, occurs in P Ryl II. 7744 (Α.Ὁ. 192) ὀφείλει εἰς τὴν κατεπείγοζυσα]ν ἀρχὴν παραβαίνειν, ‘he ought to pass on to the office immediately required’’ (Edd.). For the definitely metaphorical meaning ‘‘ transgress,” which alone is found in the NT (unless Ac 1°), we may cite the following exx.: P Par 4613 (B.c. 152) (= UPZi. p. 338) παραβέβηκεν τοὺς ὅρκους, P Amh 11. 35%° (B.c. 132) παραβεβηκότος τὰ τῆς χειρογραφίας, P Bad 45° (A.D. 87) πα[ρ]αBas cov τὴν συνταγήϊν, BGU II. 638° (A.D. 143) μὴ ἐξεῖναι δὲ μηθὲν τῶν mpoyeyp(appévwv) παραβῆν[α]., and P Oxy ILI. 5261 (ii/a.p.) εἰ καὶ μὴ ἀ[νέ]βενε ἐγὼ τὸν λόγον μου οὐ παρέβενον, ‘even if he were not going I should not have broken my word” (Edd.). ce ς 7 pass on [For the omission of ἄν in this last sentence in the apodosis of unfulfilled condition, see s.v. ἄν, and contra Robertson, G7. p. 920 f.] ἸΠαραβαίνω is frequent in connexion with wills, e.g. P Oxy III. 4948 (A.D. 156) where provision is made that anyone who shall disobey (τὸν παραβησόμενον) the conditions of a will shall forfeit to the party abiding by it (τῷ ἐμμένοντι) the damages and other sums. On the legal usages of παραβαίνω and ἐμμένω see Berger Strafklauseln, p- 3. For παραβαίνω used in a religious connexion, cf. Sy// 574 (=* 989) (ii/B.c.) ὃς 8 ἄν παραβαίνηι, αὐτὸς [αὑτὸν αἰτιάσεται, with reference to the temple of Artemis at Ephesus, and OG/S 569!® (iv/A.D.) μηδεμιᾷ σκαιᾷ τινι καιϊνουργίᾳ τὴν τιμὴν] τὴν Tots θεοῖς ὀφειλομένην παραβαίνειν.
