Vocabulary of the Greek NT

For ἐ. used in a bad sense as in 1 Corinthians 10:6, Deissmann (BS, p. 224) compares BGU II. 531ii. 22 (ii/A.D.) ὡς οὔτε εἰμὶ ἄδικος οὔτε ἀ [λ ]λοτρίων ἐπιθυμητής. On the other hand cf. an inscr. from about the beginning of the Christian era, Syll 935.40 ἵνα οὖν καὶ ὁ δῆμος φαίνηται εὐχάριστος καὶ τιμῶν τοὺς ἀρετῆι διαφέροντας πολλοί τε δόξης ἐπιθυμηταὶ γένωνται.
