For the metaph. sense ";corrupt,"; ";injure,"; as in 1Co. 3:17, al., we may point to the common clause in marriage-contracts forbidding the wife φθείρειν τὸν κοινὸν οἶκον (P Tebt I. 104.29 (B.C. 92), BGU IV. 1050.22 (time of Augustus), P Oxy III. 497.4 (early ii/A.D.), al.) : cf. 1Co. 3:17.
A literal sense is seen in certain nursing contracts, where provision is made against the nurse’s ";spoiling"; her milk, e.g. BGU IV. 1058.29 (B.C. 13) μὴ φθίρουσαν τὸ γάλα. In P Strass I. 24.15 (A.D. 118) the pass. ἐφθάρη [σ ̣ ] ὰ ̣ν is used of the destruction of cattle. Cf. also P Cairo Zen I. 59037.7 (B.C. 258–7) where a man is described as ἐν Ἀλεξανδρείαι φθειρόμενος, ";in Alexandria wasting his time.";
