Vocabulary of the Greek NT

The intrans. use of this verb, which alone is found in the NT, may be illustrated from P Oxy I. 118.37 (late iii/A.D.) ἐπὶ οὖν βραδύνουσι , ";since they are delaying,"; and OGIS 515.53 (A.D. 209–11) καὶ διὰ τοῦτο καὶ ἡ εὐ [πορία ἡ πρὸς τοὺς κυρίους αὐ ]τοκράτορας τῶν φόρων βραδύνει . So in a papyrus of the second half of ii/A.D., edited by Comparetti in Mél. Nicole, p. 59 (col. ii..11) ὡς ἂν βραδύνῃς καὶ ὑστερήσῃ ταῦτα τὰ [κτήνη ] τῆς πορείας , οὐκ ἀγνοεῖς οὐδ᾽ αὐτὸς ζημίᾳ σε ὑποπ [είπτειν μέλ ]λοντα , ";if you delay, and these animals are late for the expedition, you yourself know you will get into trouble."; (The document is given again in P Flor II. p. 258.) In the Christian letter, P Gen I. 51.31, ἐβράδυνεν is without clear context, but certainly means ";he delayed."; In MGr βραδυάζει or βραδύνει = ";it is late,"; ";evening draws on.";
