Vocabulary of the Greek NT

It may be well to illustrate some of the less usual forms of this common verb. The future σχήσω (cf. Kühner-Blass Gr. I. ii. p. 112 n..3) is restored by the editor in OGIS 751.9 (ii/B.C.) ἐπεὶ θλιβέντες ἐμ πλείοσιν ἀσθενῶς [σχή ]σετε. For the 2 aor. with 1 aor. termination (cf. Acts 7:57 D συνέσχαν) see BGU II. 451.8 (i/ii A.D.) ἀναγκαίως ἔσχαμεν δ [ι ]᾽ ἐπιστολῆς σ ̣ε ̣ ἀσπάσεσθαι, and for ἔσχοσαν cf. OGIS 315.59 (B.C. 164–159) ὑφοψίαν μοχθηράν, ἣν καὶ περὶ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ ἔσχοσαν. In ib. 223.7 (iii/B.C.) we have αὐτοὶ ἀπολογισάμενοι περί τε τῆς εὐνοίας ἣν διὰ παντὸς εἰσχήκατε εἰς τὴν ἡμετέραν οἰκίαν, and for similar forms see the editor’s note.3 to ib. 323.

For the trans. use of the verb see such passages as P Oxy IV. 743.19 (B.C. 2) εἰ καὶ π [ρ ]ὸς ἄλλους εἶχον πρᾶγμα, βοηθὸν αὐτοῦ γ [ε ]νέσθαι διὰ ἢν ἔχομ ̣ε ̣(ν) πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς φιλίαν, BGU I. 22.8 (A.D. 114) (= Selections, p. 74), which illustrate 1 Corinthians 6:1 : P Leid U 3.20 (1st half ii/B.C.) τέλος ἔχει πάντα παρὲξ τῆς ἐπιγραφῆς, as in Luke 22:37 : and P Petr III. 42 G 9.7 (mid. iii/B.C.) ἐ ]α ̣ν ̣ τινος χρείαν ἔχηις, as in Matthew 9:12. With the metaphorical usage in Mark 16:8, cf. P Giss I. 65 a.4 πα ]ρακαλῶ σε, κύριέ μου, εἰδότα τ [ὴ ]ν [ἔ ]χουσάν με συμφορὰν ἀπολῦσαί μοι κτλ., and BGU II. 380.15 (iii/A.D.) (= Selections, p. 105) οὐδὲν περισότε [ρ ]ον ἔχι σε, ";there is nothing so much the matter with you,"; followed by—εἰ δὲ οἶδες σατῷ, ὅτι ἔχεις ἔτι, γράψον μ ̣ο ̣ι, ";but if you yourself know that matters are still not going well with you, write to me."; In BGU I. 33.6 (ii/iii A.D.) ἐγὼ γὰρ ἐμαυτὸν οὐκ ἔχω εἰ μὴ περαιωθῇ τὸ πρᾶγμα τοῦτο, the verb has the force of ";have rightly or really"; : cf. P Oxy VII. 1020.5 (A.D. 198–201) εἰ τὴν ἐκ τῆς ἡ [λικίας ] ἔχεις β ̣οήθιαν, where the editor translates ";if you can claim the assistance due to immature age,"; and notes that ἔχεις implies ";is rightly yours."; In P Lond 962.3 (A.D. 254 or 261) (= III. p. 210) δέξαι παρ᾽ αὐτοῦ δραχμὰς διακοσίας καὶ ἔχε αὐτὰς εἴς τε περιχωματισμὸν ἢ καὶ λόγον ὀψωνίων, ἔχε = ";spend."; This might give some support to the imper. (as RV marg.) in Matthew 27:65, against which the durative tense is a serious objection. For the phrase γυναῖκα ἔχειν (1 Corinthians 7:2; 1 Corinthians 7:12) see Syll 794 περὶ γε <ι > νεῆς, ἣ (not ἦ as Dittenberger) ἔστα [ι ] ἐκ τῆς γυναικὸς Α [ί ]γλης, τῆς νῦν ἔχει, and cf. P Leid Wviii. 9 (ii/iii A.D.) ἐὰν θέλῃς γυνεκας οὐ μὴ σχεθῆναι ὑπὸ ἄλλου ἀνδρός. The Latinism of Luke 14:18 f. is well illustrated by P Oxy II. 292.6 (c. A.D. 25) (= Selections, p. 37) παρακαλῶ σε. . . ἔχειν αὐτὸν συνεστάμενον, and similarly ib. IV. 787 (A.D. 16), P Giss I. 71.4 (time of Hadrian). For the verb in receipts we may cite Meyer Ostr 10.7 (Ptol.) ἔχουμεν (l. ἔχομεν) παρὰ σοῦ τοῦ (l. τὸ) τέλος, and the much more common aor. in ib. 26.3 (A.D. 118) ἔσχ (ον) ὑπ (ὲρ) λαο (γραφίας) . . . β ̄ς ̄ ῥυπ (αρὰς) δραχ (μάς) : see further Wilcken Ostr i. p. 86, and Archiv i. p. 76 ff. The pres. part. mid. = ";next,"; ";following,"; of time, is seen in P Rev Lxxxiv. 20 (iii/B.C.) ἐν τ [ῶι ἐχο ]μένωι ἐνιαυτῶι, and is = ";adjoining"; of place in P Par 51.5 (B.C. 160) (= Selections, p. 19) ἄν ]θρωπ [ος ] . . . ἐχόμενός μου, and P Tebt I. 86 (late ii/B.C.) where the land of Demetrius is βορρᾶ ἐχομένη to that of Apollonius and νότου ἐχομένη to that of Hermione : see the editors’ Introd. p. 381. For ἐχόμενα used adverbially = ";hard by,"; ";near,"; as in Judges 9:37, see PSI V. 514.8 (B.C. 252–1) εὐθέως δὲ τούτων ἐχόμενα κατάπεμψον τὰ ἐπισταλέντα εἰς τὰ γενέθλια τοῦ βασιλέως.

For the verb used intransitively with an adverb, as in Acts 21:13, 2 Corinthians 12:14, cf. P Lond 42.29 (B.C. 168) (= I.p. 31) ἡ μήτηρ σου τυγχάνει βαρέως ἔχουσα, BGU I. 80.17 (A.D. 158–9) ἡ Σωτηρία ἑτοίμως ἔχουσα καταγράψαι, P Cairo Preis 48.6 (ii/A.D.) καλῶς δ᾽ ἔχει σε ἐνθάδε ἐλθόντα μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ μένειν, the Christian letter P Oxy VI. 939.21 (iv/A.D.) (= Selections, p. 129) εἰ μὴ ἐπινόσως ἐσχήκει τὸ σωμάτιον τότε ὁ υἱὸς Ἀθανάσιος, ";unless my son Athanasius had then been in a sickly state of health,"; and from the inscrr. Michel 543.12 (c. B.C. 200) καλῶς ἔχον ἐσ [τὶ ] τιμᾶσθαι τοὺς εὔνους ἄνδρας, ib. 687.44 (end iii/B.C.) ὅπως ἂν τούτων γενομένων ἔχει καλῶς καὶ εὐσεβῶς τει βουλει καὶ τῶ [ι ] δήμωι τὰ πρὸς τοὺς θεούς. MGr ἔχω : note ἔχει (c. acc.), ";there is,"; ";there are.";
