    DefinitionShort: (diminutive of {L:παῖς}[a] ‘child,’ {D:9.41}, but in the NT παιδίον[a] has seemingly lost at least most of this diminutive force, but may have retained some implications of affectionate concern or interest) a child, normally below the age of puberty

    DefinitionShort: (diminutive of {L:παῖς}[b] ‘child,’ {D:10.36}, but with the loss of at least most of the diminutive meaning) one’s immediate offspring
    Glosses: ['child', 'offspring']
    Comments: One need not assume in {S:04201100700030} that the children were in the same bed with their father. One may render this passage simply as ‘I have gone to bed and so have my children’ or ‘I am already in bed and so are my children,’ but see {D:6.108}.

    DefinitionShort: (extension of meaning of {L:παιδίον}[a] ‘child,’ {D:9.42}) a person of any age for whom there is a special relationship of endearment and association
    Glosses: ['my child', 'my dear friend', 'my dear man', 'my dear one', 'my dear lad']
    Comments: In a number of languages παιδία in {S:04302100500012} is better rendered as ‘my good friends’ or ‘my dear friends’ or ‘my dear comrades.’ In this context, not age, but the connotation of affection and endearment is in focus.
