ῥάπισμα rhapisma 3x

a blow with the palm of the hand, cuff, slap, Mk. 14:65; Jn. 18:22; 19:3*

ῥάπισμα, ‘*a blow on the cheek with the open hand”: see s.z. ῥαπίζω and add Field Woes, pp. 4of., τος. The word is used of a ‘‘scar,” or the result of a blow, in a vi/a.p. account of the sale of a slave published in Archiv iii. Ρ- 415 ff., see p. 419%%, and cf. Sudhoff Arztliches, p. 143. The difficult ῥαπίσμασιν αὐτὸν ἔλαβον in Mk 14° is fully discussed by Swete ad /., where he translates ‘‘ they caught Him with blows.” The RV adopts the rendering “with blows of their hands” in the text, but puts the alternative ‘‘strokes of rods’’ in the margin. Blass (G7. Ρ- 118) describes the phrase asa ‘‘vulgarism,” which at present can be paralleled only from a i/A.D. papyrus (αὐτὸν) κονδύλοις (“knuckles”) ἔλαβεν, published in Fleckeis. Jahrb. f. class. Philol. xxxviii. (1892), pp. 29, 33. e , puis, ““needle,” is found in a series of accounts P Oxy IV. 736” (c. A.D. 1) λίνου καὶ ῥαφίδος (ὀβολός), “thread and needle 1 ob.”: cf. Mt 1974, Mk 10%. On the relation of ῥαφίς to βελόνη (Lk 1835), see Rutherford WP p. 174 f. ,
