Vocabulary of the Greek NT

χιλίαρχος, lit. ";the ruler of a thousand men,"; the Roman tribunus militum. This form (in Herodotus and elsewhere - χης) prevails in the NT (Joh. 18:12, al.), and is found in the inscrr., e.g. Magn 157 (b).15 (i/A.D.) χιλίαρχος λεγιῶνος, Preisigke 173.2 (c. A.D. 200), and OGIS 119.5 (where see Dittenberger’s note). See also P Oxy III. 653 (A.D. 162–3) and the corr. verb in ib. 477.2 (A.D. 132–3).
