The laxity in the declension of this place-name (Acts 14:6 Λύστραν, . Acts 14:8 Λύστροις : cf. Acts 16:1 f.) can be readily paralleled from the papyri, cf. e.g. P Grenf II. 46.4 (A.D. 137) ἐν Κερκεσούχῃ and .9 ἀπὸ Κερκεσούχων, and the fem. Τεντύρη in ib. 74.3, .6 (A.D. 302) instead of the more usual neut. plur. Τέντυρα : see further Moulton Proleg. p. 48, Gr. ii. § 60(10), and for similar heteroclisis in the LXX, Thackeray Gr. i. p. 167 f.
