Vocabulary of the Greek NT

BGU IV.1188.17 (time of Augustus) αὐτ ̣ο ̣ς ̣ τ ̣ε ̣ κ ̣α ̣τ ̣α ̣π ̣ο ̣νούμενος ὑπὸ τῶν τελωνω ̣ν α ̣̓ν ̣α ̣φορὰ ̣ν ̣ ἡμ ̣ε ̣ι ̣ͅν ̣ [ἀνήνεγκεν, P Oxy VIII. 1101.9 (A.D. 367–70) βουλόμενοι τοὺς διαδικοῦν [τας πάνυ κ ]αταπονι ̣ͅν, ";in their desire thoroughly to worst their adversaries at law"; (Ed.). In BGU IV. 1060.24 (B.C. 14) ὅθεν καταπεπονη ̣μένοι προήγμεθα πρὸς ἀπειλαῖς, the petitioners seem to complain of definite ill–treatment. This is the meaning in Acts 7:24 Can we not recognise it in 2 Peter 2:7? It is not mental distress that is referred to here–that comes in ver. 8—but the threatened violence of Genesis 19:9. The conative present shows that the angels’ rescue (ἐρύσατο) was in time.
