Vocabulary of the Greek NT

This diminutive is found several times in P Thead 8.11 al. (A.D. 306). For a good parallel to the usage in Luke 15:29, cf. P Hib I. 54.13 (c. B.C. 245), where in view of a coming festival, the recipient of the letter is asked—κόμισαι δὲ καὶ τὸν ἔριφον παρὰ Ἀριστίωνος καὶ πέμψον ἡμῖν. See also P Oxy II. 244.10 (A.D. 23) τοὺς ἐπακολουθ (οῦντας) ἄρνας [κ ]αὶ ἐρίφους, and P Strass I. 24.49 (a list of cattle—A.D. 118) πρόβ (ατα) ξ ̄λ ̄α ̄ καὶ αἶγες ὁ ̣[μ ]οίως τέλ (ειαι) ι ̄ ἔριφος α ̄.
