Vocabulary of the Greek NT

Καταντᾶν εἰς in the legal sense of property ";descending to"; an heir is very common, e.g. BGU IV. 1169.21 (B.C. 10) ἧσπερ μετηλλαχυίας κατήντηκεν ἰς αὐτοὺς τὰ ταύτης, P Oxy II. 274.19 (A.D. 89–97) τὰ δὲ προκείμενα αὐτοῦ πατρικ [ὰ ] . . κατήντ (ησεν) εἰς α (ὐτὸν) μετὰ τὴν τ [ο ]ῦ πατ (ρὸς) τελευ [τήν, BGU III. 969.14 (ii/A.D.) εἰς τὸν συνηγορούμενον κατήντηκεν ἡ κτηνοτ [ρ ]οφία In BGU I. 326i. 12, .13 (A.D. 194) καταντῆσαι πρός τινα occurs twice in the same sense. This technical meaning seems very appropriate in 1 Corinthians 10:11 ἡμῶν, εἰς οὓς τὰ τέλη τῶν αἰώνων κατήντηκεν, on which Prof. Findlay’s unconscious comment is—";The Church is the heir of the spiritual training of mankind"; (EGT ad l.). [Dr. Rendel Harris suggests that in this case τὰ τέλη means ";the revenues"; of the ages]. The Tennysonian parallel ";I, the heir of all the ages"; suggests itself at once. In 1 Corinthians 14:36 ἢ εἰς ὑμᾶς μόνους κατήντησεν (ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ); the same sense is probable—";was the gospel your exclusive inheritance?";

Like our descend, the word keeps its ordinary meaning elsewhere. Thus in illustration of its nine-fold occurrence in Acts with reference to travellers reaching their destination we may cite P Tebt I. 59.3 (B.C. 99) καταντήσαντος. . εἰς τὴν πόλιν Σοκονώφεως, P Oxy III. 486.30 (A.D. 131) ἐνθάδε κατήντησα, and Priene 112.97 (after B.C. 84) καταντᾶν εἰς τὸ γυμνάσιον, while P Meyer 3.16 (A.D. 148) ἵν᾽ οὖν. . εὐθέως ἐπὶ τὸν κρά (τιστον) ἐπίτροπ (ον) καταντήσῃς [ἐ ]πέστειλά σοι shows the verb of ";presenting oneself before"; a person. In PSI I. 101.13 (end of ii/A.D.) εἰς μόνους κατηντηκέναι ἄνδρας γ ̄, the reference is to certain taxation which has ";fallen upon"; three men : cf. ib, 102.10, 105.8. The verb is found in MGr = ";come to,"; ";end in,"; as in Abbott Songs xvi. 5 (p. 140) τρελλὸς θὰ καταντήσω, ";I shall end in madness";—a lover’s serenade : cf. κατάντημα, ";end,"; ";goal,"; in LXX Psa. 18꞉7 [MT Psalms 19:6]. The subst. κατάντησις = ";entrance"; occurs in P Hamb I. 4.7 (A.D. 87) κ ̣ατάντησιν εἰς Ἀλεξάνδριαν.
