ἐκτίθημι is used = ";expose"; an infant, as in Acts 7:21 (cf..19 ἔκθετα), in BGU IV. 1104.24 (B.C. 8) τὸ βρέφος ἐκτίθεσθαι. The verb is common = ";post up"; a notice etc., e.g. P Hib I. 29.9 (c. B.C. 265) ὁ δ ̣ὲ τελώνης το ̣[ῦτο τὸ ] γραμματ [εῖον ] γράψ ̣ας εἰς λεύκωμα μ [ε ]γάλο ̣ι ̣ς γράμ ̣μ ̣α ̣σ ̣ι ̣ν (cf. Galatians 6:11) ἐκτιθέτ ̣[ω πρὸ ] τοῦ ἀ ̣γ ̣ο ̣ρ ̣α ̣ν ̣[ομί ]ου ἑκάστης ἡ [μ ]έρας, ";and the tax-farmer shall write this document upon a notice board in large letters and expose it in front of the agoranomus-office every day"; (Edd.), P Par 63.65 (B.C. 164) (= P Petr III. p. 24) ὥπως τοῦτο μὲν ἔν τε ταῖς μητροπόλεσιν ἐκ [τ ]εθῆι, ";that this be posted up in the chief towns"; : cf. ib. 49.3 (B.C. 164–158) (= Witkowski, 2 p. 69) τοσ ̣[αύ ]τ ̣ην ἐμαυτοῦ ἐλευθερ [ιότητ ]α [ο ]ὐ ̣ βαναυσίαν ἐκτέθει [κ ]α πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις, and with the corresponding subst. (as in Esther 8:14; Esther 8:17 A) P Petr II. 13 (18b).10 (B.C. 258–3) ἔκθες οὖν ἔκθεμα καὶ προκήρυξον, ";issue a public notice and have it cried."; The subst. is also found in P Flor I. 99.1 (i/ii A.D.)
