Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
στρῆνος, “*wantonness,”’ ‘‘ luxury” (Rev 188). Apparently the earliest instance of this word is in the iv/B.c. comic poet Nicostratus (see Kock CAF ii. p. 230, No. 42), if the fragment is genuine. Unfortunately the word stands alone without context. It occurs later in Lycophron 438 (iii/B.c.) and the LXX: cf. 4 Kingd 1978 τὸ στρῆνός cov ἀνέβη ἐν τοῖς ὠσίν pov—said of the Assyrian King.
