For ἄρτι of strictly present time (as Galatians 1:9 f., 1 Thessalonians 3:6, etc.) cf. BGU II. 594.5 (c. A.D. 70–80) λ ]έγων ὅτι μετὰ τὸν θερισμὸ [ν ἐργολ ]αβήσομα [ι ], ἄρτι γὰρ ἀσθενῶι, P Lond 937 b.8 ff. (iii/A.D.) (= III. p. 213) δικάζομαι χάριν τῶν τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ μου καὶ οὐ δύναμαι ἄρτι ἐλθεῖν πρὸς σ [έ ], Syll 387.8 A.D. 127—a rescript of Hadrian) δίκαια ἀξιοῦν μοι δοκεῖτε καὶ ἀναγκαῖα ἄ [ρ ]τι γεινομένῃ πόλει : Stratonicea (in Lydia) was just ";incorporated."; The word is very common in magical formulae, e.g. P Lond 121.373 (iii/A.D.)
