Vocabulary of the Greek NT

P Tebt I. 120.41 (accounts—B.C. 97 or 64) εἰς λύτρω (σιν) ποτηρίω (ν) (δραχμαὶ) δ ̄, P Ryl II. 213.164 (late ii/A.D.) λυ ]τρώσεως ̣ αἰγῶν (δρ.) β ̄ . . . : see also P Rein 42.5 (i/ii A.D.) λυτρώσεως, in connexion with a deed of sale, but unfortunately in a broken context. For the meaning ";deliverance"; ";redemption,"; which the subst. has in the LXX and NT, cf. Plutarch Arat. xi. λύτρωσιν αἰχμαλώτων, cited by Abbott ad Ephesians 1:7 (ICC), where the word and its compound ἀπολύτρωσις are fully discussed. Cf. Deissmann LAE, p. 331 ff.
