Λυσανίας
σιγᾶν ἄμεινον ἢ λαλεῖν ἃ μὴ πρέπει → it's better to keep silence than to say what's not appropriate (Menander)
English (Strong)
from λύσις and ania (trouble); grief-dispelling; Lysanias, a governor of Abilene: Lysanias.
English (Thayer)
Λυσανίου, ὁ, Lysanias;
1. the son of Ptolemy, who from 40 B.C.> on was governor of Chalcis at the foot of Mount Lebanon, and was put to death 34 B.C.> at the instance of Cleopatra: Josephus, Antiquities 14,7, 4,13,3; 15,4, 1; b. j., 1,13, 1, cf. b. j. 1,9, 2.
2. a tetrarch of Abilene (see Ἀβιληνή), in the days of John the Baptist and Jesus: Josephus mentions ἡ Λυσανίου τετραρχία (Antiquities 18,6, 10, cf. 20,7, 1), βασιλεία ἡ τοῦ Λυσανίου καλουμένῃ (b. j. 2,11, 5), Ἀβιλα ἡ Λυσανίου (antt. 19,5, 1); accordingly, some have supposed that in these passages Lysanias the son of Ptolemy must be meant, and that the region which he governed continued to bear his name even after his death. Others (as Credher, Strauss, Gfrörer, Weisse), denying that there ever was a second Lysanias, contend that Luke was led into error by that designation of Abilene (derived from Lysanias and retained for a long time afterward), so that he imagined that Lysanias was tetrarch in the time of Christ. This opinion, however, is directly opposed by the fact that Josephus, in Antiquities 20,7, 1and b. j. 2,12, 8, expressly distinguishes Chalcis from the tetrarchy of Lysanias; nor is it probable that the region which Lysanias the son of Ptolemy governed for only six years took its name from him ever after. Therefore it is more correct to conclude that in the passages of Josephus where the tetrarchy of Lysanias is mentioned a second Lysanias, perhaps the grandson of the former, must be meant; and that he is identical with the one spoken of by Luke.
