Abbott-Smith Manual Greek Lexicon of the New Testament

** ἀπο -κυέω

(Rec. -κύω ), -ῶ (< ἀπό , κυέω or κύω , to be pregnant),

[in LXX: 4 Maccabees 15:17 *;]

prop., "the medical word for birth as the close of pregnancy" (Hort, Ja., 26 f.). In κοιν , "an ordinary syn. of τίκτω , but definitely 'perfectivised' (M, Pr., 111 ff.; MM, s.v.) by the

ἀπό , and so implying safe delivery," to bring forth, give birth to: James 1:15; James 1:18.†

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

BGU II 665ii. 19 (i/A.D.) ἡτοιμάσθη αὐτῇ πάντα [π ]ρὸς [τ ]ὴν λοχ [ε ]ίαν αὐταρκῶς, ἐρωτῶσι δ [ὲ ] καί, κυ ̣ρ ̣ι ̣ε ̣ (sc. πάτερ), [ἡ ] μήτηρ [α ]ὐτοῦ, ὅπως ἀποκυή [σ ]ῃ ω [ . . . The word, accordingly, notwithstanding Hort’s attempt (on James 1:15) to apply it specially to cases of abnormal birth, would seem to have been an ordinary synonym of τίκτω, but definitely ";perfectivized"; by the ἀπό, and so implying delivery. For the simplex cf. Syll 797.5 (ii/B.C.) τὸ παιδάριον δ Ἀννύλα κύει, 802.8, 803.27.
