Thayer's Expanded Definition

μαθητής, μαθητοῦ, (μανθάνω), a learner, pupil, disciple: universally, opposed to διδάσκαλος, Matthew 10:24; Luke 6:40; τίνος, one who follows one's teaching: Ἰωάννου, Matthew 9:14; Luke 7:18 (19); John 3:25; τῶν Φαρισαίων, Matthew 22:16; Mark 2:18; Luke 5:33; Μωϋσέως, John 9:28; of Jesus — in a wide sense, in the Gospels, those among the Jews who favored him, joined his party, became his adherents: John 6:66; John 7:3; John 19:38; ὄχλος μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ, Luke 6:17; οἱ μαθητοι αὐτοῦ ἱκανοί, Luke 7:11; ἅπαν τό πλῆθος τῶν μαθητῶν, Luke 19:31; but especially the twelve apostles: Matthew 10:1; Matthew 11:1; Matthew 12:1; Mark 8:27; Luke 8:9; John 2:2; John 3:22, and very often; also simply οἱ μαθηταί, Matthew 13:10; Matthew 14:19; Mark 10:24; Luke 9:16; John 6:11 (Rec.), etc.; in the Acts οἱ μαθηταί are all those who confess Jesus as the Messiah, Christians: Acts 6:1f, 7; Acts 9:19; Acts 11:26, and often; with τοῦ κυρίου added, Acts 9:1. The word is not found in the O. T, nor in the Epistles of the N. T., nor in the Apocalypse; in Greek writings from (Herodotus), Aristophanes, Xenophon, Plato down.

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

In a return of hieroglyphic inscribers, P Oxy VII. 1029.25 (A.D. 107), the ἱερόγλυφοι declare on oath that the list is exhaustive, and that there were no apprentices or strangers versed in their art—ὀμνύομεν. . . μηδὲ ἔχει [ν ] μαθητὰς ἢ ἐπιξένους χρωωμένους (l. χρωμ -) τῇ τέχνῃ εἰς τὴν ἐνεστῶσαν ἡμέραν. The word is probably (to be read in BGU I. 328 i. 24 (ii/A.D.). The distinction between μάθημα and μάθησις is well seen in PSI I. 94.8 f. (ii/A.D.) προσεδρεύει ἰς τὰ μαθήματα · ζηλοῖ γὰρ τὴν μάθησιν, ";he is regular in attendance at his studies, for he is eager in acquiring knowledge"; : cf. also P Oxy X. 1296.6 (iii/A.D.) ἀμερίμνη οὖν, πάτερ, χάριν τῶν μαθημάτων ἡμῶν, ";do not be anxious, father, about my studies"; (Edd.), ib. IV. 724.8 (A.D. 155) πρὸς μάθησιν σημείων —contract of apprenticeship to a shorthand-writer, and from the inscrr. IMAe VII. 449.7 πᾶσαν μάθησιν ὑμνοποιὸν ἐνδιδούς. MGr μαθητής, plur. μαθητές or μαθητάδες.
