    Comments: παλαιός[a] in a context involving wineskins focuses upon the use of such wineskins over a long period of time, and therefore it may be necessary in some languages to translate ‘used wineskins’ or ‘wineskins which have been used for a long time.’

    DefinitionShort: pertaining to a point of time preceding another point of time, with an interval of considerable length
    Glosses: ['long ago', 'of long ago']
    Comments: References to a point of time preceding another point of time may express a relationship to an event in the discourse or to the time of the discourse itself. In {S:05800100100008} πάλαι[a] marks a point of time long before the actual writing of this Letter to the Hebrews. The same is true of ἔκπαλαι in {S:06100300500018}. In some languages it is necessary to indicate clearly whether the interval is (1) between a prior time and the event mentioned in the discourse or (2) between a prior time and the discourse itself. For example, in {S:05800100100008} it may be necessary to translate ‘long ago before now God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets’ or ‘long ago before now that I am writing …’|Though in some translations τῆς παλαιᾶς διαθήκης is rendered as ‘the old covenant,’ it is important to distinguish in the meanings of ‘old’ between that which has lasted for a long time and that which comes from a period long ago. It is the latter meaning which is relevant in the context of {S:04700301400036}.

    DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: old person, or: former person) the old or former pattern of behavior, in contrast with a new pattern of behavior which people should conform to
    Glosses: ['old self', 'old pattern of life']
    Comments: In a number of languages one can best render this expression in {S:04900402200016} as ‘don’t live the way you used to.’
