παρεμβολή, originally ";insertion,"; ";interpolation,"; came as early as Theophilus (fr. 9) or Diphilus (fr. 57) to be used of a ";camp"; or ";encampment."; [Phryn. ed. Lob. p. 377 describes the word as δεινῶς Μακεδονικόν, but see Thumb Hellen. p. 224.] It is so used in the LXX and decies in the NT with slightly varying connotations.
Similar exx. from the papyri are BGU IV. 1097.6 (time of Claudius or Nero) ἀπῆλ ̣θεν εἰς παρεμβολὴν ̣ στρατ ̣ε ̣υ ̣σασ ̣θ ̣αι, ib. I. 140.5 (time of Hadrian) προε [τέθη ἥδε ἡ ἐπιστολ (ὴ)? ἐν τῇ ] π [α ]ρεμ ̣βολ (ῇ) τ ̣η ̣̑[ς ] χειμασία [ς λεγιῶνο (ς) τρίτης, P Oxy XII. 1481.3 (a soldier to his mother—ii/A.D.) διότι ἐν παρεμβολῇ ἠμί (l. εἰμί), and from the inscrr. Syll 318 (= .3 700).20 (Thessalonica—B.C. 117) μετεπέμψατο εἰς τὴν παρενβολήν. See also Kennedy Sources, p. 15.
Interesting reff. to the great παρεμβολή near the suburb of Nicopolis will be found in the letter on the Meletian schism, P Lond 1914.10 al. (A.D. 335?). For the village named Παρεμβολή in the Arsinoite nome, see P Ryl II. 330 (A.D. 130), and the editor’s note to P Hamb I. 2.3 (A.D. 59).
