ἀδελφοί

ἀδελφός [G:N-M]
brother

---

ἀδελφός, -οῦ, ὁ
(< ἀ- copul., δελφύς, womb),
in cl., a brother, born of the same parent or parents. [In LXX (Hort, Ja., 102f.), for אָח ;]
__1. lit. of a brother (Gen 4:2, al.).
__2. Of a neighbour (Lev 19:17).
__3. Of a member of the same nation (Refs [Exo 2:14, Deu 15:3]). In NT in each of these senses (1. Mat 1:2, al.; 2. Mat 7:3; 3. Rom 9:3) and also,
__4. of a fellow-Christian: Refs [1Co 1:1, Act 9:30]. This usage finds illustration in π., where ἀ. is used of members of a pagan religious community (M, Th., I, 1:4; MM, VGT, see word). The ἀδελφοὶ τ. Κυρίου (Refs [Mat 12:46-49 13:55 28:10, Mrk 3:31-34, Luk 8:19-21, Jhn 2:12 7:3, 5 10 20:17, Act 1:14, 1Co 9:5]) may have been sons of Joseph and Mary (Mayor, Ja., Intr. viff.; DB, i, 320ff.) or of Joseph by a former marriage (Lft., Gal., 252ff.; DCG, i, 232ff.), but the view of Jerome, which makes ἀ. equivalent to ἀνεψιός, is inconsistent with Greek usage. (Cremer, 66.)
