Vocabulary of the Greek NT

For this verb used of one ill, as in Mark 1:30 al., cf. P Ryl II. 68.16 (B.C. 89) ω ̣̓́[στε ] διὰ τὰς πληγὰς ἀρρωστη ̣σ ̣α ̣σα (l. –σαν) κατακεῖσαι (l. –κεῖσθαι) κινδυνεύο ̣υ ̣σα (l. –σαν) τῶι βίωι, ";the blows caused me to be laid up with sickness and my life is endangered"; (Edd.), P Tebt II. 422.19 (iii/A.D.) κατα ̣κιται, ";she is laid up,"; and see Field Notes, p. 25. The word has a technical significance in P Oxy VII. 1040.32 (A.D. 225) κύρια [τὰ γ ]ράμματα δισσὰ γραφέντα ὡς ἐν [δ ]ημοσίῳ κατακείμενα, ";this bond, which is written in duplicate, is valid as if publicly registered"; (Ed.), ib. X. 1257.1 (iii/A.D.) τῷ κατ᾽ ἄνδρα τῷ ἐν δ [η ]μοσ [ίῳ κατα ]κειμένῳ, ";to the individual list lodged in the archives"; (Edd.). See also P Strass I. 41.29 (A.D. 250) δύο ταλάντ ]ων παρ᾽ ἐκείνῳ κ [ατ ]ακειμένων, ";indem die zwei Talente bei ihm beruhten"; (Ed.), and the contracted κα ̣τα ̣κ in Meyer Ostr 76.2 (A.D. 68) which the editor resolves into κατακ (ειμένου) and understands as referring to ";verfallenen (?)"; wheat. In Kaibel 702.7 κατάκειμε λιπὼν πένθος γονέ [εσ ]σι, the compound takes the place of the simplex κεῖμε in .1.
