Vocabulary of the Greek NT

In P Oxy VIII 1101.4 (A.D. 367–70) a Praefect states that certain orders he was issuing were based not on information gained from a few first-comers (π [αρ᾽ ὀ ]λίγων τῶν πρώτων [πυθόμενο ]ς), ἀλλὰ πρὸς διδασκαλίαν τρόπον τινὰ λαμβάνον (l. — ων) [ἐκ τῶν εἰ ]ς ἑκάστ [η ]ν πόλιν τε καὶ ἐνορίαν γιγνομένων, ";but on instruction in a way derived from what occurs in every city and district"; (Ed.). Cf. from the inscrr. Syll 306.9 (ii/B.C.) ὑπὲρ τᾶς τῶν παίδων διδασκαλίας, ib. 423.16, 663.10. A new literary citation may be given from P Ryl II. 62.23 (iii/A.D.—translated from an unknown Latin writer by one Isidorianus) καὶ τὴν τῶν φαρμά [κων δ ̣ι ̣[δ ]ασκ ̣αλίαν ποιεῖ : the edd. are not satisfied with the reading, but see no alternative. An interesting Christian example of δ. occurs in the prayer of the end of iv/A.D. published by C. Schmidt in Neutestamentliche Studien für G. Heinrici (1914) p. 71.26 φώτισον ἐν τῇ [σῇ πα ]ρακλήσει · ὅπως καταξιωθῶμεν. . . τῆς μεγαλοφυοῦς διδασκαλίας τῶν εὐαγγελίων τοῦ σ (ωτῆ)ρ (ο)ς ἡμῶν Ἰ (ησο)ῦ Χ (ριστο)ῦ.
