Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἐπιτίθημι is construed with the acc. and dat., as in Acts 28:10, in BGU IV. 1208i. 4 (B.C. 27) ὃ ἐπιτέθ [εισα ]ι ̣ τοῖς παῤ αὐτοῦ [πιττάκ ]ιον, ib. 1139.7 (B.C. 5) Π ̣α ̣ρ ̣θ ̣ο ̣ς. . . α ̣ὐ ̣τ ̣η ̣̑ ἐπέθηκεν Π ̣ρ ̣ι ̣μ ̣α (cf. Mark 3:16 ff.), P Ryl II. 81.9 (c. A.D. 104) τὴν γὰρ ὅλου τοῦ πράγματος ἐξουσίαν τοῖς κατασ [π ]ορεῦσι ἐπεθέμην, ";for I gave the inspectors of sowing the conduct of the whole matter"; (Edd.), and with the acc. alone in ib. 121.10 (ii/A.D.) τ ̣[ὰς ] σφραγεῖδας ἃς ἐπέθηκ [ε, ";the seals which he affixed"; (Edd.). In BGU IV. 1019.7 (mid. ii/A.D.) we have ὃς ἔδωκεν τὸν στρατηγὸν τοῦ νομοῦ εἰς τ [ὸ ] πέρας ἐπιθεῖναι τ [ῇ ] λογοθεσίᾳ. For the meaning ";persuade,"; ";enjoin,"; cf. P Oxy X. 1255.6 (A.D. 292) ἐπειθεμένου σου ἡμῖν, ib. 1265.11 (A.D. 336) ἐπέθετό μοι ἡ σὴ ἐμμέλε ̣[ια ἐγγρά ]φως δηλῶσαι, ";your grace enjoined me to state in writing"; (Edd.), and for the meaning ";attack,"; ";assault,"; as in Acts 18:10, cf. P Tebt I. 15.11 (B.C. 114) καὶ τὸν τούτου υἱὸν Μάρωνα ἐπιτεθεῖσθαι τῶι Πολέμωνι, ib. 53.10 (B.C. 110) ἐπιθέμενοι λῃστικῶι τρόπωι, and so BGU IV. 1061.14 (B.C. 14) : cf. P Flor III. 332.7 (ii/A.D.) ἀλλ᾽ ἐπιζητεῖ νῦν μετὰ καὶ ἄλλων γυμναστικῶν φίλων πῶς ἐπιθῆταί μοι ἀπόντος σου, and see s.v. ἐπίθεσις. With the use of the verb = ";add to"; in Revelation 22:18 as opposed to ἀφαιρέω, cf. προστίθημι in Cagnat IV. 1028b.20 ἐὰν δέ τις ] πρὸς ταύτας τὰς συνθήκας κοινῆ (ι) βουλῆ (ι) προσθεῖναι ἢ ἀφελεῖν βούλ [ω ]νται ὁ δῆμος καὶ ἡ βουλὴ κτλ.
