δεύτερος, δευτέρᾳ, δεύτερον (from Homer down; Curtius, § 277), second: Matthew 22:26; Mark 12:21; Luke 12:38; John 4:54; Revelation 4:7, etc.; the second, the other of two: Matthew 22:39; Mark 12:31; 1 Corinthians 15:47; Titus 3:10; 2 Peter 3:1; Hebrews 8:7; Hebrews 10:9; δεύτερος θάνατος (see θάνατος, 3), Revelation 2:11; Revelation 20:14; Revelation 21:8; δευτέρᾳ χάρις in 2 Corinthians 1:15 is not a double benefit, but a second, opposed to the former which the Corinthians would have had if Paul in passing through Achaia into Macedonia had visited them πρότερον (WH text Tr marginal reading read δεύτερον χαράν, which see). The neuter δεύτερον is used adverbially in the second place, a second time (cf. Winer's Grammar, § 37, 5 Note 1): John 3:4; Revelation 19:3; πάλιν is added, as often in Greek writers (see ἄνωθεν, at the end): John 21:16; also τό δεύτερον, 2 Corinthians 13:2; Jude 1:5; ἐκ δευτέρου (1 Macc. 9:1), Mark 14:72; John 9:24; Acts 11:9; Hebrews 9:28; cf.

For δεύτερον = ";in the second place,"; as in 1 Corinthians 12:28, cf. P Tebt I. 56.10 (late ii/B.C.) καλῶς οὖν ποήσῃς εὐχαριστῆσαι πρῶτον μὲν τοῖς θεοῖς δεύτερον δὲ σῶσαι ψυχὰς πολλάς κτλ ., ";please therefore in the first place to give thanks [?—see s. v. εὐχαριστέω ] to the gods and secondly to save many lives, etc."; (Edd.) In P Tebt II. 297.19 (c. A.D. 123) we find ἐγ δευτέρου = ";a second time,"; as in Mark 14:72 al. OGIS 299.17 (c. B.C. 170) τῆι δεύτερον ἡμέραι is defended by Kaibel ap. Dittenberger in loc., appealing to IMAe I. 155.28 τᾶι δεύτερον ἁμέραι μετὰ τὰ ἱερά , and the analogy of τῷ ὕστερον ἔτει and ἡ σήμερον ἡμέρα . In MGr δευτέρα is ";Monday"; (ἡ δεύτερη = 2nd, fem. of δεύτερος and sharing its accent).
