Hebrews 12:28 L T Tr WH.*
[Syn. δέος (apprehension), ϕόβος (fear): Ammonius s. v. δ. says δέος καὶ ϕόβος διαϕέρει· δέος μὲν γάρ ἐστι πολυϰρό-νιος κακοῦ ὑπόνοια. ϕόβος δὲ ἡ παραυτίκα πτόησις. Plato (Laches p. 198 b.): δέος γὰρ εἶναι προσδοκίαν μέλλοντος κακοῦ. Cf. Stallbaum on Plato's Protag. p. 167; Schmidt ch. 139; and see s. v. δειλία.]
