We have found no instance as yet of this interesting subst. (Hebrews 7:19), but the verb is used as a term. techn. in marriagecontracts, forbidding a man to ";introduce"; another woman into his house, e.g. P Eleph 1.6 (B.C. 311—0) (= Selections, p. 3) μὴ ἐξέστω δὲ Ἡρακλείδηι γυναῖκα ἄλλην ἐπεισάγεσθαι ἐφ ὕβρει Δημητρίας, P Giss I. 2 i. 20 (B.C. 173), BGU IV. 1050.16 (time of Augustus). This would seem to justify the RV translation of Heb l.c. ";a bringing in thereupon"; or ";besides,"; as against Field Notes, p. 227. See also the verbal ἐπείσακτος in Ostr 757.4 (B.C. 106—5) σὺν τῷ ἐπισάκτῳ with reference apparently to ";imported"; wine : cf. the use of παρείσακτος in Galatians 2:4. Musonius (p. 6.12) has—εἰ ὅλον ἐπείσακτον τὸ τῆς ἀρετῆς ἦν, καὶ μηδὲν αὐτοῦ φύσει ἠμῖν μετῆν. . .
