ἐπαγωνίζομαι

ἐπαγωνίζομαι
ἐπαγωνίζομαι (Dionys. Hal., Plut et al.; ins, Philo) to extert intense effort on behalf of someth., contend. When used in athletic imagery, the dat. dependent on it indicates for the most part either the one against whom one is contending (Plut., Fab. 187 [23, 2]), or the pers. or thing upon whom (which) one depends for support in rivalry (Plut., Numa 65 [8, 16] ἑτέροις τεκμηρίοις, of engagement in literary one-upmanship). τῇ πίστει Jd 3, fr. the context, can only mean for the faith (cp. Plut., Mor. 1075d; Michel 394, 19 [I B.C.] ἐπηγωνίσατο τῇ πρὸς τ. πόλιν εὐνοίᾳ). The primary semantic component in the use of this verb in Jd 3 is the effort expended by the subject in a noble cause; as such it is the counterpart of the author’s πᾶσαν σπουδὴν ποιούμενος and a manifestation of ἀρετή, giving expression to the Gr-Rom. ideal of dedication to the welfare of the larger group.—DELG s.v. ἄγω. M-M. TW.
