Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἐκφέρω is by no means so common as we might have expected. In P Par 26.21 (B.C. 163–2) (= Selections, p. 15) the Serapeum Twins petition Ptolemy and Cleopatra against those who had maltreated them and ";were appropriating the privileges conferred on us by you";—τῶν. . . τὰ ὑφ᾽ ὑμῶν ἡμῖν χρηματιζόμενα ἐκφερομένων : cf. Michel 1001ii. 22 (c. B.C. 200) μὴ ἐχέτω δὲ ἐξουσίαν μηδὲ ἐξενέγκαι τῶν ἐν τῶι μουσείωι ὄντων μηθέν. In another papyrus in the Paris collection the verb occurs in the passive in connexion with an assault, P Par 14.28 (ii/B.C.) ἀφορήτῳ δὲ ἀνομίᾳ ἐξενεχθέντες καὶ ἐκπηδήσαντές μοι. . . πληγὰς ἔδωκαν : cf. also P Tebt I. 5iii. 68 (B.C. 118) ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ τοὺς πλείονας καρπείαις (l. καρπείας) ἐξεν ̣ηνεγμένους ἕως τοῦ αὐτ [οῦ χ ]ρόνου τῶν ἐπιτίμων, ";likewise (they remit) the penalties incurred by those who have appropriated more (than their due) emoluments up to the same period."; An interesting use is found in a Question to the Oracle, P Fay 138.3 (i/ii A.D.) Κύριοι Διόσκουροι, ἦ κρείνεται αὐτὸν ἀπελθεῖν ἰς πόλειν; τοῦτο ἐκξένειγκον καὶ συμφονήσατο πρὸς τὸν ἀδελφόν σου. ";O lords Dioscuri, is it fated for him to depart to the city? Bring this to pass, and let him come to an agreement with thy brother"; (Edd.) : cf. BGU I. 229.3 (ii/iii A.D.) cited s.v. ἀσθένεια. In Syll 152.48 (B.C. 330–25) τὴν βουλὴν προβουλεύσασαν ἐξενεγκεῖν εἰς τὴν πρώτην ἐκκλησίαν περὶ Ἡρακλείδου, the meaning is to ";produce"; or ";make public"; a προβούλευμα, a ";preliminary decree"; which became a βούλευμα, when passed by the Ecclesia. The subst. ἐκφόριον is used of ";rent in kind"; as distinguished from φόρος ";rent in money"; as in P Tebt II. 377.23 ff. (A.D. 210) : see the editors’ note ad l.c., and cf. Modica Introduzione, p. 163 f.
