The word is used of military instruction or training in an Imperial letter, which Wilcken (cf. Archiv ii. p. 170) dates in the time of Hadrian—BGU I. 140.16 (A.D. 119) καὶ τ ]οῦτο οὐκ ἐδόκει σκληρὸν [εἶ ]ναι [τοὐν ]αντίον αὐτῶν τῆ [ς ] στρατιω [τ ]ικῆ [ς διδα ]χῆς πεποιηκότων. An interesting parallel to Mark 1:27 occurs in the new uncanonical gospel, P Oxy X. 1224 Fr. 2 verso.3 π [ο ]ίαν σέ [φασιν διδα ]χὴν καιν [ὴν ] δι [δάσκειν, ἢ τί β ]ά [πτισμ ]α καινὸν [κηρύσσειν; ";what is the new doctrine that they say thou teachest, or what the new baptism that thou dost preach?"; (Edd.)
