Vocabulary of the Greek NT

In P Lond 429 (c. A.D. 350) (= I. p. 314 f.) we have a long account of δῶρα made on the occasion of various festivals, which the editor thinks are to be regarded as temple-offerings. If so, we may compare the similar use in the inscrr., e.g. OGIS 407 βασιλεὺς Ἰούλιος Ἐπιφάνης Φιλόπαππος Δεσποίν [αι ] καὶ Σωτίρα [ι ] δῶρον. ἐπὶ ἱερέος Σωτηρίχου, Syll 774 σ ]τρατία ὑπὲρ τῆς ὁράσεως θεᾷ Δήμητρι δῶρον, ib. 787 (iv/iii B.C.) Διὶ δῶρον. This illustrates the common Biblical use of δῶρον for a sacrifice, or an offering to the Temple treasury. For the ordinary sense of δῶρον it will suffice to quote BGU IV. 1114.7 (B.C. 8–7) ̣π ̣ο ̣καταστῆσαι ἐνταῦθα τῶι Ἱμέρωι δῶρον δούλους (names follow), ib. I. 248.8 (ii/A.D.) κατὰ δῶρον, PSI III. 236.33 (iii/iv A.D.) οὐκ ὀκνῶ γὰρ οὐδὲ περὶ δώρων οὐδὲ περὶ κέρματος, εἰδώς σου τὴν ἀγαθὴν προαίρεσιν, and the boy’s letter, P Oxy I. 119.11 (ii/iii A.D.) (= Selections, p. 103) καλῶς δὲ ἐποίησες, δῶρά μοι ἔπεμψε [ς ], μεγάλα, ἀράκια, ";it was good of you, you sent me a present, such a beauty—just husks!"; One interesting literary inscr. may be quoted, Kaibel 815.4 (ii/A.D.—Crete), where Salvius Menas offers a libation and a sacrifice to Hermes in memory of his wife, ψυχικὰ δῶρα διδούς : the ed. explains this as gifts ";quae pro defunctae uxoris anima Mercurio animarum duci comitique obferuntur.";
