         DefinitionShort: the worth or merit of some object, event, or state

         Glosses: ['worth', 'value']

         Comments: In some languages the equivalent of ‘value’ is almost always in terms of ‘importance.’ This is particularly true if one is speaking of objects which are normally not bought and sold. Accordingly, one may render this particular expression in {S:04601202300018} as ‘those parts of the body which we think of as not being so important, to these we grant particular importance’ or ‘… we consider as being very important.’|It is also possible to interpret τιμή in {S:04601202300018} as a degree of honor or appreciation (see {L:τιμή}[a], {D:87.4}).

         DefinitionShort: the amount of money or property regarded as representing the value or price of something

         Glosses: ['amount', 'price', 'cost']

         Comments: It would be wrong to assume that τιμή in {S:04600702300002} necessarily means ‘a high price.’ The notion ‘high’ comes from the contextual reference to the death of Christ. In {S:04600702300002}, however, the implication is that a price was set and that the payment has been made. If the passive expression in {S:04600702300002} must be made active, one may translate as ‘Christ bought you with a price’ or ‘Christ paid for you.’

         DefinitionShort: compensation given for special service, with the implication that this is a way by which honor or respect may be shown

         Glosses: ['compensation', 'pay', 'honorarium']

         Comments: τιμή[d] in the sense of compensation is related in meaning to {L:τιμάω}[c] to support, to provide for ({D:57.117}) and τιμή[c] cost ({D:57.161}), but in {S:05400501700012} it is also possible to understand τιμή in the sense of τιμή[a] honor, respect ({D:87.4}), and therefore one may speak of the elders as receiving double honor.
