ἑτέρα, ἕτερον, the other; another, other; (from Homer on); the Sept. chiefly for אַחֵר. It refers:
1. to number, as opposed to some former person or thing;
a. without the article, other: joined to a noun (which noun denotes some number or class within which others are distinguished from the one), Mt 12:45 and Lk 11:26, ἑπτά ἑτέρα πνεύματα, i. e. from the number of the πνεύματα or demons seven others, to be distinguished from the one already mentioned; add, Mk 16:12; Lk 6:6; Lk 9:56, etc.; Jn 19:37; Acts 2:40; Acts 4:12, etc.; Rom 7:3; Rom 8:39; Rom 13:9; ἕτεραι γενεαί, other than the present, i. e. past generations, Eph 3:5; as in classical Greek ἄλλος, so sometimes also ἕτερος is elegantly joined to a noun that is in apposition: twice so in Luke, viz. ἕτεροι δύο κακοῦργοι two others, who were malefactors (Alexander Buttmann (1873) differently § 150, 3), Lk 23:32; ἑτέρους ἑβδομήκοντα equivalent to ἑτέρους μαθητάς, οἵτινες ἦσαν ἑβδομήκοντα Lk 10:1;reliquaprivataaedificia for 'the rest of the buildings, which were private' Caesar b. g. 1, 5; cf. Bornemann, Scholia ad Luc., p. 147f; Winers Grammar, 530 (493); (Josephus, contra Apion 1, 15, 3 and Müller's note). simply, without a noun, equivalent to ἄλλος τίς another, Lk 9:59; Lk 22:58; Acts 1:20; Rom 7:4; ἕτεροι πολλοί, Mt 15:30; Lk 8:3; Acts 15:35; οὐδέν ἕτερον, Acts 17:21; ἑτέρα, other matters, Acts 19:39 R G T; πολλά καί ἑτέρα, many other things also (hardly also, see καί, I. 3; cf. remark under the word πολύς, d. a. at the end), Lk 3:18; ἕτερος with the genitive of person Gal 1:19; τά ἑτέρων (opposed to τά ἑαυτοῦ), Phm 2:4; ἑτέρων with τίς added, Acts 8:34; neuter 1 Tim 1:10; (ἐν ἑτέρῳ, introducing a quotation, Heb 5:6, cf. Winer's 592 (551) — but in Acts 13:35 supply ψαλμῷ). in partitive formulas: ἄλλοι... ἕτεροι δέ, Heb 11:36 cf. Acts 2:13; ὁ πρῶτος... ἕτερος, Lk 14:19; Lk 16:7; ὁ δεύτερος... ἕτερος, Lk 19:20 (where L T Tr WH ὁ ἕτερος); τινες... ἕτεροι δέ, Lk 11:16; ᾧ μέν... ἄλλῳ δέ... ἑτέρῳ δέ... ἄλλῳ δέ, 1 Cor 12:9f; οἱ μέν... ἄλλοι (L οἱ) δέ... ἕτεροι δέ, Mt 16:14.
b. with the article, the other (of two): οἱ ἕτεροι, the others, the other party, Mt 11:16 T Tr WH (see ἑταῖρος). distinctively: εἷς or εἷς... ὁ ἕτερος, Mt 6:24; Lk 7:41; Lk 16:13; Lk 17:34; Lk 18:10; Lk 23:40; τό ἕτερον πλοῖον, Lk 5:7; ἡ δέ ἑτέρα namely, ἡμέρα, the next day, the day after, Acts 20:15; Acts 27:3 (Xenophon, Cyril 4, 6, 10 (others)). ὁ ἕτερος, the other, when the relation of conduct to others is under consideration is often put by way of example for any other person whatever, and stands for 'the other affected by the action in question' (and may be transitive, thy neighbor, thy fellow, etc.): Rom 2:1; Rom 13:8; 1 Cor 6:1; 1 Cor 10:24, 1 Cor 10:29; 1 Cor 14:17; Gal 6:4; (Jas 4:12 R G); plural οἱ, αἱ, τά ἕτεροι, ἕτεραι, ἑτέρα, the others i. e. the rest, Lk 4:43. It refers:
2. to quality; another i. e. one not of the same nature, form, class, kind; different (so in Greek writings from Homer down): Rom 7:23; 1 Cor 14:21; 1 Cor 15:40; 2 Cor 11:4; Gal 1:6; Heb 7:11, Heb 7:13, Heb 7:15; Jas 2:25; Jude 1:7. (Synonym: see ἄλλος.)
