With Luke 13:16 where demoniac power ";binds"; the sufferer from curvature of the spine, cf. the use of the verb to describe the ";binding"; power of curses : Syll 809.14 (iv/iii B.C.) ἔδησα τὰς [χε ]ῖρας καὶ τοὺς πόδας καὶ [τὴ ]ν γλῶσσαν καὶ τὴν ψυχ [ή ]ν κτλ . Dittenberger remarks that καταδέω (ib..2) is commoner in this cursing formula : he cites another defixio in almost the same phrases. Other examples of the verb are P Fay 108.12 (c. A.D. 171) ἔδ ̣ησαν ἡμᾶς σὺν καὶ τῷ μαγδωλοφύλακι , ";bound us along with the guard of the watch-tower,"; said of thieves, P Oxy X. 1294.7 (ii/iiiA.D.) ἱμάντα δεδεμένον εἰς τὸ πανάριον καλόν , ";a good strap tied to the basket"; (Edd.).
