Vocabulary of the Greek NT

in pass. = ";become old,"; as in Hebrews 8:13 : cf. Preisigke 5827.11 (B.C. 69) πεπαλαιῶσθαι with reference to a temple building. Preisigke Wörterbuch s.v. also cites Archiv ii. p. 441, No. 55.4 (ii/A.D.) τείχη β ̄ περιβόλου παλαιωθέντα. In Heb l.c. the verb on its two occurrences is sometimes understood transitively = ";abrogate"; : so Tin-dale ";he hath abrogat.";
