<1,,3797,opsimos>
akin to opse and opsios (see LATE), denotes "late," or "latter," and is used of "the latter rain" in Jas. 5:7 (the most authentic mss. omit huetos, "rain;" some have karpos, "fruit"); this rain falls in March and April, just before the harvest, in contrast to the early rain, in October. In the Sept., Deut. 11:14; Prov. 16:15; Jer. 5:24; Hos. 6:3; Joel 2:23; Zech. 10:1.
Note: For "latter" (husteros) in the AV of 1 Tim. 4:1 see LATER, and for 2 Pet. 2:20 see LAST.
