According to Grimm-Thayer this subst. = ";obedience"; (Romans 6:16, al.) ";is not found in prof, auth.,"; but we may cite, though it is late, P Strass I. 40.41 (A.D. 569) μεθ᾽ ὑπ ̣[ερ ]τάτης ἀ ̣ρ ̣ετ ̣ῆς καὶ ὑπακοῆς ἐν πᾶσι τ [ο ]ι ̣̑[ς ] ὀφελίμοις ἔργοις τε καὶ λόγοις. The word is found in Ev. Petr. 9 καὶ ὑπακοὴ ἠκούετο ἀπὸ σταυροῦ [ὅ ]τι Ναῖ, where Swete understands it as = ";response"; or ";refrain,"; in accordance with a common use of the verb in early Christian literature.
