";shepherd,"; ";tend"; : cf. BGU III. 759.11 (A.D. 125) ἐπελθόντες μοι. . . ποιμαίνοντι θρέμματα Ἀνουβίωνος, P Ryl II. 114.9 (c. A.D. 280) Συρίων. . . ἀναπίσας μου τὸν ἄν [δρα Γάνιδα ὀνό ]μ ̣α ̣τι ποιμένιν αὐτοῦ τὰ πρόβατα, ";Syrion persuaded my husband Ganis to pasture his flock,"; P Thead 15.11 (A.D. 280–1) ἀγανακτ [ή ]σας ἐκέλευσας αὐτῷ τῷ Συρίωνι παραστῆσαι τοὺς ποιμένας μεθ᾽ [ὧ ]ν ἐποίμανεν ὁ τῶν παίδων πατήρ, ";in your indignation you have ordered Syrion himself to present at the tribunal the shepherds, along with whom the father of the children shepherded,"; and from the inscrr. Syll 570 (=.3 986).3 (v/iv B.C.) ἐν τ ]οῖς ἄλσεσιν μ [ὴ ποιμ ]αίνειν μηδὲ κοπρ [εόε ]ν (i.e. κοπρεύειν : editor).
Bauer (HZNT ad John 21:15) sees no difference between βόσκω and ποιμαίνω in John 21:15; John 21:17; John 21:16, but refers to Philo Quod det. pot. ins. sol. p. 263.27 ff. ed. Cohn for a difference between them. From the idea of ";pasturing,"; ";feeding,"; the verb passes readily into the idea of ";governing,"; ";guiding"; (Hort Ecclesia, p. 243) : cf. Revelation 2:27 with Swete’s note.
