ἔξω, adverb (from ἐξ, as ἔσω and εἴσω from ἐς and εἰς);
1. without, out of doors;
a. adverbially: Mark 11:4; joined with verbs: ἑστάναι, Matthew 12:46, 47 (WH text omit the verse); Mark 3:31; Luke 8:20; Luke 13:25; John 18:16; John 20:11 (Lachmann omits); καθῆσθαι, Matthew 26:69; or with some other verb declaring that the person without is doing something, Mark 3:31. Preceded by the article ὁ ἔξω, absolutely, he who is without, properly, of place; metaphorically, in plural, those who do not belong to the Christian church (cf. Lightfoot on Col. as below; Meyer on Mark as below): 1 Corinthians 5:12, 13; Colossians 4:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:12; those who are not of the number of the apostles, Mark 4:11 ((cf. Meyer) WH marginal reading ἔξωθεν, which see). With a noun added: αἱ ἔξω πόλεις, foreign, Acts 26:11; ὁ ἔξω ἄνθρωπος, the outer man, i. e. the body (see ἄνθρωπος, 1 e.), 2 Corinthians 4:16.
b. it takes the place of a preposition and is joined with the genitive, without i. e. out of, outside of (Winer's Grammar, § 54, 6): Luke 13:33; Acts 21:5; Hebrews 13:11, 12.
2. after the verbs of going, sending, placing, leading, drawing, etc., which commonly take prepositions or adverbs signifying rest in a place rather than those expressive of motion toward a place, ἔξω has the force of the Latinforas (German hinaus,heraus), forth out, out of;
a. adverbially, after the verbs ἐξέρχομαι, Matthew 26:75; Mark 14:68; Luke 22:62; John 19:4, 5; Revelation 3:12; ἄγω, John 19:4, 13; προάγω, Acts 16:30; ἐξάγω, Luke 24:50 (R G L brackets); βάλλω and ἐκβάλλω, Matthew 5:13; Matthew 13:48; Luke 8:54 R G;
b. as a preposition with the genitive: after ἀπελθεῖν, Acts 4:15; ἀποστέλλειν, Mark 5:10; ἐκβάλλειν, Mark 12:8; Luke 4:29; Luke 20:15; Acts 7:58; ἐξέρχεσθαι, Matthew 21:17; Acts 16:13; Hebrews 13:13; ἐκπορεύεσθαι, Mark 11:19; ἐξάγειν, Mark 8:23 (R G L Tr marginal reading); σύρειν τινα, Acts 14:19; έ῾λκειν τινα, Acts 21:30.

For this common adverb we may refer to the numerous nursing-contracts in BGU IV. where a very general provision is that the child shall be cared for ἔξω κατὰ πόλιν, that is ";outside"; the house of the person who gives it in charge, but ";in the town"; : thus in 1108.6 (B.C. 5) the nurse promises—τροφεύσειν καὶ θηλάσειν ἔξω παρ᾽ ἑατῇ κατὰ πόλ (ιν) : see further Archiv v. p. 38. In PSI IV. 340.10 (B.C. 257–6) Ἀμύνταν δὲ ἔξω τε σκηνοῦντ ̣α, ἔξω is opposed to ἐν τῆι χώραι, and for a similar contrast with ἔσω cf. BGU IV. 1141.31 f. (B.C. 14) περὶ δὲ Ξύστου μοι γράφεις, ὅτι ἔξωι καχεκτεύεται, ἤ (= εἴ) τι μὲν ὁ σύνδ ̣ουλος αὐτὸν δυνήσεται συστῆσαι, ἐγὼ οὐκ ἐπίσ ̣τ ̣α ̣μαι, οὐδὲ γὰρ καθεύδωι ἔσωι ἵνα εἰδῶι. Exx. of the adv. equivalent to an adj., as in Acts 26:11, are BGU IV. 1114.5 (B.C. 4) ἐν τοῖς ἔξω τόποις, and P Oxy VI. 903.20 (iv/A.D.) τὰς ἔξω θύρας. For the word as a prep. c. gen., as in 2 Corinthians 4:16, cf. P Oxy III. 480.14 (A.D. 132), a declaration in a census-return that no one dwells in a certain house—ἔξω τῶν προγ (εγραμμένων), ";except the aforesaid,"; and the phrase ἔξω ἱεροῦ βωμοῦ, with reference to the being ";outside"; the protection of a temple and altar, as discussed s.v. βωμός.
The collocation δεῦρ᾽ ἔξω (John 11:43) is found in Menandrea p. 35.483 διόπερ ὑπεκδέδυκα δεῦρ᾽ ἔξω λάθρᾳ, and for the comp. cf. P Oxy III. 498.12 (ii/A.D.) τῶν μὲν ἐξωτέρω λίθων κύβων καμηλικῶν, ";the outer squared camel stones."; In P Rev Lxli. 13 (iii/B.C.) ἔξω ὅρα ";at the end of the line, ‘look outside,’ calls attention to the fact that a note on the verso is to be inserted at this point"; (Edd.). A quaint parallel to οἱ ἔξω (e.g. in Colossians 4:5) is seen in the MGr ὁ ἔξω ἀπ᾽ ἐδώ, ";he who is far from this place,"; meaning ";the devil."; The word is also found in MGr under the forms ὄξω, ὄξου.
