Vocabulary of the Greek NT

For the form ἐξαίφνης, which is read by WH only in Acts 22:6 (cf. Notes, 2 p. 158), see P Par 51.8 (B.C. 160) (= Selections, p. 19) καὶ ἐξαί [φνης ] ἀνύγω τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, and PSI III. 184.5 (A.D. 292) περὶ ἕκτην ὥραν ἐξαίφνης καύματος ἐνόντος πῦρ κτλ. The very fragmentary letter P Giss I. 86 (ii/A.D.) shows ὅτι ἐξέφνης ἀπέστιλας : so P Flor II. 175.7 (A.D. 255). In Cagnat III. 1145.4 we have ἐξεφάνης. On the ease with which αι and ε would be interchanged by the scribes, see Proleg. p. 35. MGr ἔξαφνα, ἄξαφνα, ξάφνω, with ξαφνίζω, ";frighten,"; ";surprise.";
