Vocabulary of the Greek NT

This medical term (Hobart, p. 69 f.), which in the NT is found only in the Lukan writings, occurs in a medical receipt of early i/A.D., P Oxy VIII. 1088.29 ὕπτιον κατακλίνας τὸν ἄνθρωπον θεράπευε, ";lay the man on his back and treat him"; (Ed.) : cf. the use of the adj. in P Ryl II. 124.26 (i/A.D.) ὥστε αὐτὴν κατακρινῆ (l. κατακλινῆ) εἶναι, ";so that she is laid up in bed"; (Edd.). The verb is found in Cagnat IV. 661.21 (a will – A.D. 85) ἵνα μόνοι οἱ παρόντες καὶ κατακλεινόμενοι βουλευταὶ λαμβάνωσι τὴν διανομὴν [τα ]ύτην : for the subst. cf. ib..5 γείν [εσ ]θαι δὲ τὴν κατάκλισιν μηνὸς Πανήμου ἡμέρᾳ εὐδαιμοσύνης.
