Man's, of Man, Mankind

"human, belonging to man" (from anthropos, see MAN , No. 1), is used (a) of man's wisdom, in 1—Corinthians 2:13 (some mss. have it in ver. 4, where indeed it is implied; see, however, the RV); (b) of "man's judgement," 1—Corinthians 4:3 (marg., "day:" see DAY); (c) of "mankind," James 3:7 , lit., "the human nature," RV marg. (AV marg., "nature of man"); (d) of human ordinance, 1—Peter 2:13; Moulton and Milligan show from the papyri how strongly antithetic to the Divine the use of the word is in this respect; (e) of temptation, 1—Corinthians 10:13 , RV, "such as man can bear" (AV, "such as is common to man"), i.e., such as must and does come to "men;" (f) of "men's" hands, Acts 17:25; (g) in the phrase "after the manner of men," Romans 6:19 .
