Man's, of Man, Mankind (See Also Men):
"human, belonging to man" (from anthropos, see MAN, No. 1), is used
(a) of man's wisdom, in 1Cr 2:13 (some mss. have it in ver. 4, where indeed it is implied; see, however, the RV);
(b) of "man's judgement," 1Cr 4:3 (marg., "day:" see DAY);
(c) of "mankind," Jam 3:7, lit., "the human nature," RV marg. (AV marg., "nature of man");
(d) of human ordinance, 1Pe 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, 1Cr 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, Act 17:25;
(g) in the phrase "after the manner of men," Rom 6:19.
Notes:
(1) In Luk 16:12, AV, allotrios, "belonging to another" (allos, "another"), here used as a pronoun, is translated "another man's" (RV, "another's"); so, as an adjective, in Rom 14:4; 15:20; 2Cr 10:15, 16 (in this last the RV omits "man").
(2) In Act 27:22 there is no word representing "man's;" the RV has "of life."
(3) In Rom 5:17, the RV rightly has "the trespass of the one," for AV, "one man's offense."
