9.6 · People · Human Beings
human, of people (derivative of ἄνθρωπος[a] ‘people,’ 9.1) pertaining to being a person Many languages, however, lack an adjectival form equivalent to ‘human,’ and therefore one may speak of ‘human wisdom’ as being ‘wisdom that people have.’ At the same time, languages may actually lack an abstract term such as ‘wisdom,’ and therefore it may be necessary to translate ‘taught by human wisdom’ as ‘taught by those people who are wise.’

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἀνθρώπινος. This significant adj. is found in Wilcken Os¢r. ii. no. 1218 (Rom.) μέλη ἰαικὰ (2 tarp.) ἀνθρώπι(να), with reference apparently to certain healing charms. In wills of the Ptolemaic period ἀνθρώπινόν τι πάσχειν is the stereotyped form for ‘‘to die,” e.g. P Petr I. 119 (the will of a cavalry officer) ἐὰν δέ τι ἀνθρώπινον πάθω καταλείπω τίά por ὑπάρχοντα ἐγ] τοῦ βασιλικοῦ καὶ τὸν ἵππον καὶ τὰ ὅπλα κτλ. : cf. also the important marriage contract P Gen I. 2115
