Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ὀφρῦς (for accent see Moulton Gr. ii. p. 141 f.) in its literal sense of the cognate word ";brow,"; ";eyebrow,"; is naturally common in the personal descriptions in which papyrus documents abound, e.g. P Petr I. 11.17 (B.C. 220) οὐλὴ ἐπ᾽ ὀφρύος ἀριστερᾶς, ";a scar on his left eyebrow,"; P Fay 107.15 (A.D. 133) οὐλ () ὀφρύι δεξιᾷ, and similarly BGU I. 287.6 (A.D. 250) (= Selections, p. 115). We may add the famous description of Paul in the Acta Pauli 3, where the apostle is described as σύνοφρυς, ";with eyebrows meeting."; In Epict. i. 3. 2 ὀφρῦς has the metaphorical sense ";pride";; cf. Lat. supercilium.
