Vocabulary of the Greek NT

In P Lond 42.18 (B.C. 168) (= I. p. 30, Selections p. 10) we have an urgent appeal to a man who has become a recluse in the Serapeum : his wife writes to him, δο [κο ]ῦσα ν [ ]γ [γ ]ε σοῦ παραγενομένου τεύξεσθαί τινος ἀναψυχῆς, ";thinking that now at last on your return I should obtain some relief."; The noun, which is classical and occurs several times in the LXX along with the corresponding verb (cf. 2 Timothy 1:16), is found also in P Vat A.15 (B.C. 168) (= Witkowski .2, p. 65)—a letter to the same recluse by his brother, obviously in collusion with the wife. For the verb see P Oxy X. 1296.7 (iii/A.D.) φιλοπονοῦμεν καὶ ἀναψύχομεν ";I am industrious and take relaxation"; (Edd.). See Anz Subsidia, p. 303.
