1. properly (A. V. ordinarily, to bring);

a. to lead by laying hold of, and in this way to bring to the point of destination: of an animal, Matthew 21:7; Luke 19:35; Mark 11:7 (T Tr WH φέρουσιν); (Luke 19:30); τινα followed by εἰς with the accusative of place, Luke 4:9 (others refer this to 2 c.); Luke 10:34; (ἤγαγον καί εἰσήγαγον, Luke 22:54); John 18:28; Acts 6:12; Acts 9:2; Acts 17:5 (R G); Rec.; ; ἐπί with the accusative, Acts 17:19; ἕως, Luke 4:29; πρός τινα, to persons, Luke (Luke 4:40); ; Acts 9:27; John 8:3 (Rec.).

b. to lead by accompanying to (into) any place: εἰς, Acts 11:26 (Acts 11:25); ἕως, Acts 17:15; πρός τινα, to persons, John 1:42 (John 1:43); ; Acts 23:18; followed by the dative of person to whom, Acts 21:16 on which see Winers Grammar, 214 (201) at length (cf. Buttmann, 284 (244)) (1 Macc. 7:2 ἄγειν αὐτούς αὐτῷ).

c. to lead with oneself, attach to oneself as an attendant: τινα, 2 Timothy 4:11; 1 Thessalonians 4:14 (Josephus, Antiquities 10, 9, 6 ἀπῆρεν εἰς τήν Αἴγυπτον ἀγών καί Ιερεμιαν). Some refer Acts 21:16 to this head, resolving it ἄγοντες Μνάσωνα παρ' ᾧ ξενισθῶμεν, but incorrectly, see Winers Grammar (and Buttmann) as above.

d. to conduct, bring: τινα (Luke 19:27); John 7:45; (John 19:4, 13); Acts 5:21, 26,(); ; πῶλον, Mark 11:2 (where T Tr WH φέρετε); (Luke 19:30, see a. above); τινα τίνι or τί τίνι, Matthew 21:2; Acts 13:23 G L T Tr WH.

2. tropically,

a. to lead, guide, direct: John 10:16; εἰς μετάνοιαν, Romans 2:4.

b. to lead through, conduct, to something, become the author of good or of evil to some one: εἰς δόξαν, Hebrews 2:10 (εἰς (others, ἐπί) καλοκἀγαθίαν, Xenophon, mem. 1, 6, 14; εἰς δουλείαν, Demosthenes, p. 213, 28).

c. to more, impel, of forces and influences affecting the mind: Luke 4:1 (where read ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ (with L text T Tr WH)); πνεύματι Θεοῦ ἄγεσθαι, Romans 8:14; Galatians 5:18; ἐπιθυμίαις, 2 Timothy 3:6; simply, urged on by blind impulse, 1 Corinthians 12:2 — unless impelled by Satan's influence be preferable, cf. 1 Corinthians 10:20; Ephesians 2:2; (Buttmann, 383f (328f)).

3. to pass a day, keep or celebrate a feast, etc.: τρίτην ἡμέραν ἄγει namely, ὁ Ἰσραήλ, Luke 24:21 (others (see Meyer) supply αὐτός or ὁ Ἰησοῦς; still others take ἄγει as impersonal, one passes, Vulg. tertia dies est; see Buttmann, 134 (118)); γενεσίων ἀγομένων, Matthew 14:6 R G; ἀγοραῖοι (which see, 2), Acts 19:38; often in the O. T. Apocrypha (cf. Wahl, Claris Apocr. under the word ἄγω, 3), in Herodotus and Attic writers.

4. intransitive, to go, depart (Winers Grammar, § 38, 1, p. 251 (236); (Buttmann, 144 (126))): ἄγωμεν let us go, Matthew 26:46; Mark 14:42; John 14:31; πρός τινα, John 11:15; εἰς with the accusative of place, Mark 1:38; John 11:7 (Epictetus diss. 3, 22, 55 ἄγωμεν, ἐπί τόν ἀνθύπατον); (followed by ἵνα, John 11:16. Compare: ἀνάγω, ἐπανάγω, ἀπάγω, συναπάγω, διάγω, εἰσάγω, παρεισάγω, ἐξάγω, ἐπάγω, κατάγω, μετάγω παράγω, περιάγω, προάγω, προσάγω, συνάγω, ἐπισυνάγω, ὑπάγω. Synonym: cf. Schmidt, chapter 105.)

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

The spread (mostly in the compounds) of the late and vulgar sigmatic aor. act. is well seen in uneducated writers of papyri. Thus P Grenf II. 44.11 (A.D. 101) and BGU II. 607.15 (A.D. 163) κατῆξαν, BGU I. 81.20 (A.D. 189) κατήξαμεν, P Ryl I. 27.35 (iii/A.D.) συνάξας, P Hawara 312.4 (ii/A.D.) (in Archiv v. p. 393) ἄξαι, P Giss I. 27.9 (ii/A.D.) ἄξω : cf. P Tebt I. 22.16 διάξησθε (B.C. 112). Thackeray Gr. p. 233 gives LXX evidence; Crönert Mem. Herc., p. 232 n.2 has passages from late papyri, together with ἄξωσιν from Herculaneum (i/A.D.). Cf. also 2 Peter 2:5, Acts 14:27 D, and below. W. G. Rutherford New Phrynichus, p. 217 f., shows that ἠξάμην is Homeric, and survives in Herodotus and early Attic. Whether its appearance in (mostly illiterate) papyri is due to survival in dialects, especially Ionic, or to independent recoinage of a very obvious type, need not be discussed here. The importance of the form for the NT was emphasized by Moulton in Camb. Bibl. Essays, p. 485 (1909), (cf. Einleitung, p. 84). In Luke 3:17 אa reads συνάξαι, as do all authorities in Luke 13:34 (ἐπισυνάξαι). We may be quite sure that Luke never emended the normal strong aorist into this colloquial, if not uneducated form. It was therefore in Q, and Matthew 3:12; Matthew 23:37 represent emendations—one to the future, which appeared in the last clause of the verse (κατακαύσει), the other to the ";correct"; infinitive ἐπισυναγαγεῖν : the latter emendation figures in all MSS. except אa in Luke 3:17. The point has important results, when set among others of like nature, in the discussion of the synoptic problem : see Expos. VII. vii. p. 413. The active perfect of ἄγω does not appear in NT; but we may note that ἀγήγοχα (Tobit 12:3) can be quoted from OGIS 219.15 (iii/B.C.), 267.12 (ii/B.C.). There are many varieties here : -αγέωχα P Tebt I. 5.198 (B.C. 118) and Letronne 84 (i/B.C.); ἀγείοχα (or cpd.) P Tebt I. 19.6 (B.C. 114), P Par 15.67 (B.C. 120), P Ryl II. 67.5 (ii/B.C.), P Oxy II. 283.14 (A.D. 45), P Leid B.4 (ii/B.C.); -ἀγέοχα P Tebt I. 124 (c. B.C. 118). We have not attempted to make this list exhaustive.

For ἄγω in the sense of ";fetch,"; ";carry away,"; see P Oxy IV. 742.7 (B.C. 2), where instructions are given to deposit certain bundles of reeds in a safe place ἵνα τῇ ἀναβάσει αὐτὰς ἄξωμεν. Wilcken’s proposal (ap. Witkowski Epp..2, p. 128) that ἄξωμεν should be assigned to ἄγνυμι seems to us improbable. For the construction with μετά (2 Timothy 4:11) cf. P Petr II. 32 (2a).13 ἄγων μεθ᾽ αὑτοῦ. For ";bring before"; a court of justice, as Matthew 10:18, Acts 18:12, cf. BGU I. 22.34 ff. (A.D. 114) ( = Selections, p. 76) διὸ ἀξιῶ ἀκθῆναι τοὺς ἐνκαλουμένους ἐπὶ σὲ πρὸς δέουσ (αν) ἐπέξοδον,—a petition to the Strategus. So also P. Tebt II. 331.16 f. (c. A.D. 131) ἀξιῶ ἀχθῆναι αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ σέ : the constr. with ἐπί is regular, as in NT. Note P Oxy X. 1279.25 (A.D. 139) μετὰ δὲ τὴν πενταετίαν οὐκ ἀχθήσομαι εἰς τὴν μίσθωσιν ";I shall not be forced to take the lease"; (Edd.). Ἄγειν for ";keeping,"; ";holding"; a special day or festival (as Tobit 11:19 : cf. Acts 19:38 ἀγοραῖοι ἄγονται —see s.v. ἀγοραῖος) appears in OGIS 456.10 καταγγελεῖς τῶν πρώτων ἀ (χ)θησο [μένων ἀγώνων ], ";heralds of the first games that shall be held."; So with ἐ [νιαυσίας ἑ ]ο [ρ ]τάς in OGIS 111.26; P Oxy VII. 1025.17 (iii/A.D.) pass. with θεωρίαι; P Giss I. 27.9 (ii/A.D.) στεφανηφορίαν ἄξω. More generally we have σχολὴν ἄγειν in P Tebt II. 315.17 (ii/A.D.), and ἄγοντος τὰ κατ᾽ ἔ [το ]ς γεωργικὰ ἔργα in P Ryl II. 154.20 (A.D. 66). Somewhere under this heading will come Luke 24:21 τρίτην ταύτην ἡμέραν ἄγει, where if the verb is not impersonal, ὁ Ἰησοῦς might be supplied as subject. The intransitive ἄγειν may be seen in the meaning ";lead,"; of a road or canal, as P Petr I. 22 (2); and a rather similar intransitive use occurs in an Egyptian inscr. of Augustus (Preisigke 401, A.D. 10–1) who records that he ποταμ [ὸν ] . . . ἤγαγεν. . . ῥέοντα δι᾽ ὅλης τῆς πόλεως : in the Latin equivalent flumen . . . induxit. Ἄγωμεν (as in John 14:31) survives in MGr ἄμε, ";go"; (Thumb).
