after appearing in Aristoph. (Nub. 592), does not appear again until the LXX and NT, perhaps because it was regarded as a nonliterary or even slang word. It is found in the sense of ";muzzle"; in a quotation from the LXX in 1Co. 9:9, 1Ti. 5:18, and metaphorically = ";put to silence"; in Mat. 22:34 al. (cf. Lucian De Mart. Per. 15),
According to Rohde Psyche II. p. 424 (Engl. Tr. p. 604) φιμοῦν and φιμωτικόν are used in rude Egypto-Syrian Greek as equivalent to καταδεῖν, κατάδεμος in denoting the binding of a person by means of a spell, so as to make him powerless to harm. Exx. of this magical usage are—P Lond 121.967 (iii/A.D.) (= I. p, 114) δεῦρό μοι. . . καὶ φίμωσον, ὑπόταξον, καταδούλωσον τὸν δεῖνα, an appeal to a god, ib..396 φιμωτικὸν καὶ ὑποτακτικὸν γενναῖον καὶ κάτοχος, ib. 123.4 (iv/v A.D.) (= I. p. 120) καθυπόταξον φίμωσον καταδούλωσον πᾶν γένος ἀνθρώπων, and P Osl I. 11.64 (iv/A.D.) φιμώσαται τὰ στόματα τὰ κατ᾽ ἐμοῦ. These instances, as Eitrem has pointed out, make ";an effective background"; lor the usage in Mar. 1:25; Mar. 4:39.
The subst. φίμωσις occurs in Vett. Val. p. 257.13 πρὶν φθάσαι τὴν θίμωσιν, apparently with reference to the silence of death.
