1. to think, suppose, be of opinion, (Aeschylus, Sophocles, Xenophon, Plato, Thucydides, and following; nowhere in this sense in the sacred writings).

2. from Polybius (6, 53, 10 δεδοξασμένοι ἐπ' ἀρετή) on to praise, extol, magnify, celebrate: τινα, passive, Matthew 6:2; Luke 4:15; ἑαυτόν, to glorify oneself, John 8:54; Revelation 18:7; τόν λόγον τοῦ κυρίου, Acts 13:48; τό ὄνομα τοῦ κυρίου, Revelation 15:4; τόν Θεόν, Matthew 5:16; Matthew 9:8; Matthew 15:31; Mark 2:12; Luke 5:25; Luke 7:16; Luke 13:13; Luke 17:15; Luke 18:43; Luke 23:47; Acts 11:18; Acts 21:20 (Rec. κύριον); Romans 15:6, 9 (Winer's Grammar, § 44, 3 b.; 332 (311)); 1 Peter 2:12; 1 Peter 4:14 Rec.; with the addition of ἐπί τίνι, for something, Luke 2:20; Acts 4:21; 2 Corinthians 9:13; ἐν ἐμοί, on account of me (properly, finding in me matter for giving praise (cf.

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

The verb is found in the sepulchral epitaph or a mimus, already cited s.v. δεισιδαίμων, Kaibel 607.7 (iii/A.D.) εὐφρανθεὶς ἐφ᾽ ὅσον μοῖραι χρόνον ὥρισαν αὐτῷ, εὐσεβίης ἕνεκεν δοξασθεὶς καὶ μετὰ λήθην. As illustrating the NT usage of this word, the following invocation from the magical papyrus P Lond 121.502 ff. (iii/A.D.) (= I. p. 100) is noteworthy—κυρία Ἶσις. . . δόξασόν μοι (for με), ὡς ἐδόξασα τὸ (ὄνομα) τοῦ υἱοῦ (pap. υἱοῦς) σου Ὥρου : cf. Reitzenstein Poimandres, p. 22 n.5. See Anz Subsidia, p. 356. A further magical quotation was given above under δόξα. Grimm’s ";use not found in prof. writ.,"; viz. ";to make glorious, adorn with lustre"; etc., disappears from that category, as we might expect : cf. also OGIS 168.56 (B.C. 115) ἐν Ἐλ ]εφαντίνηι ἱεροῦ δεδοξασμένου ἐξ ἀρχαίων καὶ [. . . The verb survives in MGr, with partic. δοξασμένος as an adj., ";celebrated.";
