P Tor I. 1 v. 30 (B.C. 116) (= Chrest. II. p. 35) καὶ ἔφη, ἀναλογιζομένων τῶν χρόνων, ἀπὸ μἐν τοῦ Ἐπιφάνους ἐτῶν κ ̄δ ̄ κτλ., ";told off,"; ";reckoned up."; This arithmetical sense—cf. λόγος = ";a/c";—is the oldest for the whole group, and it would seem that the metaphor was conscious even when the use was widened. So in Hebrews 12:3 ἀναλογίσασθε immediately follows the reference to the ";balancing,"; as it were, of the προκειμένη χαρά against the tremendous cost. Cf. the simplex in Philippians 4:8, where we are bidden to ";count over"; our spiritual treasure.
