[SYNONYMS: ὁρᾶν, βλέπειν, both denote the physical act: ὁρᾶν in general, βλέπειν the single look; ὁρᾶν gives prominence to the discerning mind, βλέπειν to the particular mood or point. When the physical side recedes, ὁρᾶν denotes perception in general (as resulting principally from vision), the prominence in the word of the mental element being indicated by the construction of the accusative with an infinitive (in contrast with that of the participle required with βλέπειν), and by the absolute ὁρᾷς; βλέπειν on the other hand, when its physical side recedes, gets a purely outward sense, look (i. e. open, incline) toward, Latinspectare,vergere. Schmidt, chapter 11. Cf. θεωρέω, σκοπέω, εἰδῶ, I. at the end]

The latitude of this word, formerly a diminutive, is well seen in its record. In Syll 797 (=.3 1163).5 (ii/B.C.) τὸ παιδάριον ὃ Ἀννύλα κύει is of course an unborn child, while in Tobit 6:2 f. παιδάριον describes a young man who can drag on shore the magic fish that is to supply the safeguard for his marriage. In P Lond 43.8 (ii/B.C.) (= I. p. 48, Chrest. I. p. 162) a mother congratulates her son and herself because he is learning Αἰγύπτια γράμματα and will soon be able to teach τὰ παιδάρια in a school : cf. P Par 49.31 (B.C. 161–0) (= UPZ i. p. 309) ἀγωνιῶ, μήποτε ἀ [ρ ]ρωστεῖ τὸ παιδάριον, and P Lond 1171.5 (B.C. 8) (= III. p. 177), where 12 drachmae are entered as paid παιδαρίωι ὑπάρνω ἀγέλη, implies a boy old enough to look after sheep.
Παιδάριον is very common = ";slave,"; as in BGU IV. 1079.15 (A.D. 41) (= Chrest. I. p. 84) ἐγὼ παιδάριν (l. παιδάριον) εἰμί, in an appeal to a Jewish money-lender : cf. P Amh II. 88.27 (A.D. 128) (= Chrest. II. p. 162) δώσω. . . παιδα ̣ρίοις τῶι μὲν ἐνεστῶτι (ἔτει) πυροῦ (ἀρτάβης) ἥμισυ, P Oxy IX. 1207.10 (A.D. 175–6?) σπονδ [ῆς ] παιδαρίοις δραχμῶν ὀκτώ, ib. I. 117.6 (ii/iii A.D.) τὴν [[καταγραφὴν ]]†πρᾶσιν τῶν παιδαρίων τῶν παιδαρίων τῶν παιδίων, ";the sale of the slaves’ children."; and P Strass I. 6.6 (A.D. 255–261) διὰ Κάστορος παιδ (αρίου) with the editor’s note. This may be the meaning of the word in John 6:9 (cf. Bauer HZNT ad l.). See also Rostovtzeff, Large Estate, p. 177. For παιδαριώδης, ";childish,"; see s.v. ἐκδοχή.
