This Greek neut. plur. form of the Hebraic Ἱερουσαλήμ is found in the important P Leid Wxxiii. 18 (ii/iii A.D.) τὸ μέγα (ὄνομα) τὸ ἐν Ἱεροσολύμοις. It lies outside our purpose to discuss the usage of the two forms in the NT, but, as showing that a real distinction was present to the minds of Lk and Paul, reference may be made to Harnack Acts, p. 76 ff., Ramsay, Exp VII. iii. pp. 110 ff., 414 f., and Bartlet, ExpT xiii. p. 157 f. But see contra the elaborate paper by Schütz in ZNTW xi. (1910) p. 169 ff. WH (Intr..8 p. 13) refuse the rough breathing as due to a ";false association with ἱερός,"; but cf. Moulton Gr. ii. p. 101. The fem. πᾶσα Ἱεροσόλυμα, as in Matthew 2:8, cf. Tobit 14:4 B, is found in Pelagia-Legenden, p. 14.14. Have we here an anticipation of the MGr indeclinable πᾶσα ? queries Blass-Debrunner, § 56, 3.
