Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ὁμιλία occurs in the NT only in Paul’s citation (1 Corinthians 15:33) from Menander’s Thais (Fragm. p. 62, No. 218) : φθείρουσιν ἤθη χρηστὰ ὁμιλίαι κακαί : cf. Euripides Fragm. 1013 (Nauck). Ὁμιλία may mean either ";conversation"; (Vg solloquia) or ";companionship"; (Beza commercia), and the latter is obviously the leading idea here : cf. P Oxy III. 471 .76 (ii/A.D.) σύνβολα δεικνύντα τῆς πρὸς τοῦτον ὁμειλίας. ";showing signs of his intercourse (in malam partem) with him,"; and Xen. Mem. i. 2. 20 ὁμιλία τῶν χρηστῶν. MGr μιλιά, ";conversation,"; ";speech,"; ";gossip"; : μίλημα, ";conversation,"; ";proclamation.";
