Hort’s contention (ad James 3:5, cf. p. 104 ff.) that ὕλη, when applied to living wood, ";is either woodland as opposed to mountains and cultivated plains, specially the rough bushy skirts of the hills, or brushwood"; may be supported by PSI VI. 577.8 (B.C. 248–5) τήν τε γῆν ἐ [κάθαρα ὑπάρχουσαν ?] ὕλης μεστήν.
The word is used in the account of a purchase of wood P Cairo Zen I. 59112.4 (B.C. 257) ξύλων ὧ ̣ν ̣ ἠγόρακεν ἐκ τῆς ὕλης : cf. also P Lond 166 b..4 (A.D. 186) ( = II. p. 106) ἐφ᾽ ὕλ (ης) καινῆς, wood for the sluice-gates of an embankment, and P Oxy XIV. 1674.4 (iii/A.D.) ποίησον τὴν ἄκανθαν καταβληθῆναι καὶ τὴν ὕλην αὐτῆς βάλε εἰς το ̣, ν ̣ τ ̣ρ ̣υ ̣̓ινον, ";have the acacia tree cut down and throw the wood into the. . ."; (Edd.). For the meaning ";furniture,"; see P Oxy XVI. 1901.30 (a Will—vi/A.D.) τὴν ἐν τῳ οἴκῳ μου πᾶσαν ὕλην ἀπὸ κεφαλαίου μέχρι ἐλαχίστου τινός, ";all the furniture in my house from the chief pieces down to the smallest item"; (Edd.).
It may be noted that in P Par 47.9 (B.C. 152–1) ( = Selections, p. 22) ἐνβέβληκαν ὑμᾶς εἰς ὕλην μεγάλην, Wilcken (UPZ i. p. 334) understands ὕλη as = ";mud,"; ";slime"; : cf. ὑλίζω, ";I filter, strain,"; in P Lond 46.71 (iv/A.D.) ( = I. p. 67).
