Thayer's Expanded Definition

ἅμα (Sanskritsa, sama; English same; Latinsimul; German sammt, etc.; Curtius, § 440; Vanicek, p. 972. From Homer down);

1. adverb, at the same time, at once, together: Acts 24:26; Acts 27:40; Colossians 4:3; 1 Timothy 5:13; Philemon 1:22; all to a man, every one, Romans 3:12.

2. preposition (Winers Grammar, 470 (439)), together with, with the dative: Matthew 13:29. ἅμα πρωι< early in the morning: Matthew 20:1 (in Greek writings ἅμα τῷ ἡλίῳ, ἅμα τῇ ἡμέρα). In 1 Thessalonians 4:17 and 1 Thessalonians 5:10, where ἅμα is followed by σύν, ἅμα is an adverb (at the same time) and must be joined to the verb. [SYNONYMS: ἅμα, ὁμοῦ: the distinction given by Ammonius (de diff. voc. under the word) and others, that ἅμα is temporal, ὁμοῦ local, seems to hold in the main; yet see Romans 3:12, and cf. Hesychius under the word.]

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

The adverbial use seen in Matthew 20:1 may be illustrated by P Flor I. 365 (c. iv/A.D., init.) μν ̣η ̣στευσαμένου μου . . . τὴν . . . [θ ]υγατέρα . . . [ ]μα ἐκ νηπίας ἡλικίας , P Oxy VII. 102516 (late iii/A.D.) τῶν θεωριῶν ἅμ ̣̕ α ̣υ ̣̀[ρ ]ιον ἥτις ἐστὶν ι ̄ ἀγ ̣ο ̣μ ̣[έν ]ων . For ἅμα = ";at the same time,"; see P Giss I. 138 (ii/A.D.) πέμψεις ἅμα τὰς γ ̄ ἐπιστολάς , P Oxy IV. 798 (probably B.C. 183) ὡς δ᾽ ἂν παραγένωνται οἱ σιτολόγοι ἐπὶ τὴν παράληψιν τῶν σιτικῶν ἀπομετρήσομεν ἅμα καὶ ταῦτα , al. With ἅμα c. dat. ";together with,"; cf. P Oxy IV. 65813 (A.D. 250) τῶν ἱερῶν ἐγευσάμην ἅμα τῷ υἱῷ μου , so with a dat. P Rein 2614 (B.C. 104) ἅμα τῆι συγγραφῆι ταύτηι ἀναφερομένηι , P Oxy VI. 975 (i/A.D.) a loan to be repaid ἅμα τῇ ᾽μῇ τρύ [γ ] , P Petr I. 24 (3) (c. B.C. 249) ἅμα τῆι λοιπῆι ἀγορᾶι ἧι εἰλήφασι ἐγ βασιλικοῦ , P Flor I. 615 (A.D. 210) ἐχειροτονήθην ἅμ᾽ ἄλλο ̣ι ̣ς , ib. 2115 (A.D. 239) ἅμα τοῖς τῆς κώμης δημοσίοις (neuter) πᾶσι . The use of ἅμα therefore as an ";improper"; preposition was not unusual. Paul however prefers to keep it as an adverb, adding σύν (1 Thessalonians 4:17, 1 Thessalonians 5:10) : for the preposition only Matthew 13:29 is quotable from NT, and even there D adds σύν . We may compare ὁμόσε c. dat. in P Lips Inv 266 (ii/A.D.—Archiv v. 245) ὁμόσε ταῖς ἄλλαις εὐεργεσίαις . Thayer’s note that ";ἅμα is temporal and ὁμοῦ local, in the main"; (from Ammonius), has support from most of our examples. Both usages are illustrated in the Ptolemaic Pathyris papyrus (Archiv ii. p. 515 f.) ἐπεὶ γέγρᾳφεν ὁ πατὴρ συνμίσγειν ἄγων τοὺς Κροκοδιλοπολίτας καὶ ὑμᾶς ἅμα , ὀρθῶς ποιήσετε καὶ κεχαρισμένως ἑτοίμους γενέσθαι ὡς ἅμα ἡμῖν συνεξορμήσητε .
