The phrase νοῶν καὶ φρονῶν is common in wills of both the Ptolemaic and the Roman periods, e.g. P Petr I. 16 (1).12 (B.C. 237) τάδε διέθετο νοῶν καὶ φρονῶν Μένιππος, P Oxy I. 104.4 (A.D. 96), ib. III. 491.2 (A.D. 126), the testator thus certifying himself as ";being sane and in his right mind"; : contrast the imprecation, Wünsch AF p. 20.59 (iii/A.D., βασάνισον αὐτῶν τὴν διάνοιαν τὰς φρένας τὴν αἴσθησιν ἵνα μὴ νοῶσιν τί π [ο ]ιῶσιν. With 2 Timothy 2:7 we may compare the sepulchral inscr. Kaibel 278.3 καὶ σὺ | ἐρχόμε [ν ]ο [ς ] π [α ]ρ᾽ ὁδῷ τὸ [ν ] φίλον ὄντα νόει, ";et tu quoque qui praeteris nosce amicum tibi esse."; For the meaning ";perceive,"; ";understand,"; cf. further BGU I. 114i. 9 (A.D. 117) νοοῦμεν ὅτι αἱ παρακαταθῆκαι προῖκές εἰσιν, and for the meaning ";purpose,"; cf. P Par 63xi. 61 (B.C. 165) τοὺς καθ᾽ ὁντινοῦν τρόπον νοοῦντάς τί σοι ἀντίον, Preisigke 5235.7 (A.D. 12) π ]λείους μοι πληγὰς ἐνέτεινε [ν ] ἐ [ξέλα ]σίν μοι νοησάμε [νο ]ς. See also P Rein 16.34 (B.C. 109) a legal execution against two men—παρ᾽ οὗ ἂν αὐτῶν νοῆται καὶ ἐκ τῶν ὑ [παρχόντων ] αὐτοῖς [πάντων ], ";tant sur leurs personnes que sur la totalité de leurs biens"; (Ed.).

In Romans 1:20 Field (Notes, p. 151) understands νοούμενα as ";‘ conceived’—apprehended by the mind."; MGr νοιώθω, ";perceive,"; ";notice,"; ";feel.";
