STRONGS G1364:
δίς, adverb, [Curtius, § 277; from Homer down],
twice:
Mark 14:30,
72;
δὶς τοῦ σαββάτου twice in the week,
Luke 18:12;
καὶ ἅπαξ καὶ δίς (see
ἅπαξ, c.),
Philippians 4:16;
1 Thessalonians 2:18. In the phrase
δὶς ἀποθανόντα,
Jude 1:12,
δίς is not equivalent to
completely, absolutely; but the figure is so adjusted to the fact, that men are represented as twice dead in a moral sense, first as not having yet been regenerated, and secondly as having fallen from a state of grace; see
ἀποθνῄσκω, I. 4; [but compare the various interpretations as given in (Meyer) Huther or in Schaff's Lange (Fronm.) at the passage. In the Babylonian Talmud (Ber. 10 a.) we read, 'Thou art dead here below, and thou shalt have no part in the life to come'].
