Definition

ἄλλος, -η, -ο, (cf. Lat. alius, Eng. else),

[in LXX for אַחֵר ,אֶחָד, etc. ;]

other, another: absol., Matthew 20:3, al.; ἄ. δέ, 1 Corinthians 3:10; 12:8; pl., Mark 6:15; attached to a noun, Matthew 2:12; 4:21, al.; with art., ὁ ἄ., the other, Matthew 5:39, John 19:32 (Bl., §47, 8); οἱ ἄ., the others, the rest, John 20:25, 1 Corinthians 14:29; ἄ. πρὸς ἄλλον = πρὸς ἀλλήλους (BL, §48, 10), Acts 2:12; ἄλλ᾽ (i.e. ἄλλο) ἤ (Bl., §77, 13), Luke 12:51; before πλήν, Mark 12:32; εἰ μή, John 6:22; παρά with accusative, 1 Corinthians 3:11.

Synonyms: ἕτερος, which see ἄ. denotes numerical, ἕ. qualitative difference (Cremer, 89). ἄ. generally "denotes simply distinction of individuals, ἕ. involves the secondary idea of difference in kind" (see Lft., Meyer, Ramsay, on Galatians 1:6, 7; Tr., Syn., §xcv; BL, §51, 6; M, Pr., 79f., 246; MM, VGT, s.vv.). As to whether the distinction can be maintained in 1 Corinthians 12:8, 10 see ICC, in l., and on Hebrews 11:35f., see Westc, in l.
