_St. Paul's Quotation of Heathen Writers_ (Vol. v., p. 278.).--Acts xiv.
17. Ὑετὸς does not occur, according to the Indexes, in
Sophocles, Euripides, or Pindar.
The style of the Hellenizing Jews was sometimes very poetical, as in the
Wisdom of Solomon: but in one of the most inflated passages in that
book, it does not go so far as οὐρανόθεν. It says only
ἀπ' οὐρανῶν. Nor does Wetstein quote οὐρανόθεν from any author
but Homer. Hesiod might have been added (Passow), but that is the same
thing. It seems a word unfit for prose.
Καιρὸς καρποφόρος is quoted by Wetstein from _Achmet_.
