ἀπο -βαίνω ,
[in LXX for H1961, etc.;]

For the metaphorical sense (as in Luke 21:13, Philippians 1:19) cf. P Petr III. 42 H (8) f.5 (iii/B.C.) (= Witkowski.2, p. 15) νυνὶ [δὲ ἐν φόβωι ε ]ἰ ̣μὶ οὐ μετρίωι, πῶ [ς ] τε σοὶ ἀποβήσεται καὶ ἡμῖν. Syll 406.10 (A.D. 147—a reply of M. Aurelius to an address of congratulation on the birth of a son who had died after it was sent) εὔνοια ὑμῶν, ἣν ἐνεδείξασθε συνησθέντες μοι γεννηθέντος υἱοῦ, εἰ καὶ ἑτέρως τοῦτο ἀπέβη, οὐδὲν ἧττον φανερὰ ἐγένετο. The literal sense may be illustrated by the use of the verb, with its nouns ἀπόβασις and ἀποβατικόν, to denote a kind of chariot race in which one of two men in a car had to jump off : see Syll 670 (i/ii A.D.) and notes. Schlageter (p. 59) quotes ἀπόβασις from a Delos inscr. in BCH xiv. p. 399.115 (B.C. 279), where it means ";place of exit,"; the classical meaning having been ";landing.";
