Vocabulary of the Greek NT

On the use of the corresponding subst. ἐνταφιαστής in LXX Genesis 50:2 to describe the Egyptian physicians who embalmed the body of Jacob, see Deissmann BS p. 120 f., where the professional designation is illustrated from P Par 7.6 (B.C. 99). It occurs again in P Oxy III. 476.8 (ii/A.D.), the report of two ἐνταφιασταί who had been commissioned to examine a dead body—an indication, as Lumbroso has pointed out (Archiv iii. p. 163 f.), that the ἐνταφιασταί were trained physicians, and able to conduct the work not only of embalming but of autopsy : cf. also Archiv v. p. 26 f. and Otto Priester ii. p. 195 n.1. The mummy-tablet Preisigke 25 is inscribed τῷ Πανεχάτῃ ἐνταφιαστῇ, similarly ib. 3442. The verb is found in Test. xii. patr. Jud. xxvi. 3 (ed. Charles) μηδείς με ἐνταφιάσει ἐν πολυτελεῖ ἐσθῆτι.
