Vocabulary of the Greek NT

This form = ";I would that,"; which is found in the NT (1 Corinthians 4:8 al.) for ὤφελον (cf. Moulton Proleg. p. 201), may be illustrated from OGIS 315.16 (B.C. 164–3) ὄφελομ μὲν ἡ θεὸς. . . στερῆσαι τὸν ταῦτα πο [ήσαντα ὧν ] μάλιστα ἐπιθυμεῖ, where it will be noted the editor reads στερῆσαι (inf.) rather than στερήσαι (opt.). In P Giss I. 17.10 (time of Hadrian), a slave writes to her sick master—ὤφελον εἰ ἐδυνάμεθα πέτασθαι καὶ ἐλθεῖν καὶ προσκυνῆσαί σε, ";would that I could fly and come and pay my respects to you."; Ὤφελον is common with the 1st pers. in Epictetus (but does not occur in the NT), e.g. ii. 21. 1 ὤφελον ὡς φρένας ἔχω οὕτω καὶ τύχην εἶχον : for the 3rd pers. following, as in Galatians 5:12, cf. ib. ii. 18. 15 ὤφελόν (ὄφελόν S) τις μετὰ ταύτης ἐκοιμήθη.
