English (Thayer)
ποτηρίου, τό (diminutive of ποτήρ), a cup, a drinking vessel;
a. properly: T WH omit; Tr brackets the verse); πίνειν ἐκ τοῦ ποτηρίου, τό ποτήριον τῆς ἐυλογιασς (see εὐλογία, 4), ψυχροῦ, ὕδατος, WH reject the passage) cf. Winer's 635f (589f)); τό ποτήριον τίνος, genitive of the person giving the entertainment (cf. Rückert, Abendmahl, p. 217f): πίνειν, Winer's Grammar, 189 (178)); Winer s Grammar, 411 (410)).
b. By a figure common to Hebrew, Arabic, Syriac, and not unknown to Latin writers, one's lot or experience, whether joyous or adverse, divine appointments, whether favorable or unfavorable, are likened to a cup which God presents one to drink (cf. Winer's Grammar, 32): so of prosperity, πίνειν τό ποτήριον μου or ὁ ἐγώ πίνω, to undergo the same calamities which I undergo, Plautus Cas. 5,2, 53 (50) ut senex hoc eodem poculo quod ego bibi biberet, i. e. that he might be treated as harshly as I was); used of the divine penalties: Alcaeus, Sappho), Herodotus, Ctesias (401 B.C.>), Aristophanes, Lucian, others; the Sept. for כּוס.)
