The sense of ";a sojourner,"; or ";a stranger"; settled in a particular district only for a time, which is confined in the LXX to Genesis 23:4, Psa. 39꞉12 [MT Psalms 39:11], and in the NT to 1 Peter 1:1 (see Hort’s note), 1 Peter 2:11, Hebrews 11:13, can be well authenticated in our documents. Thus in a Will, P Petr III. 7.15 (B.C. 238–7), a bequest is made to a certain Apoilonius—παρεπίδημον ὃς καὶ Συριστὶ Ἰωνάθας [καλεῖται, and in P Tor II. 8.13 (B.C. 118) παρεπιδημοῦντες (peregrini) and κατοικοῦντες (incolae) are distinguished. Cf. also OGIS 383.150 (mid. i/B.C.) πλῆ ̣θος ἐπιχώριον καὶ παρεπίδημον, and Polyb. xxxii. 22. 4.
The corr. verb is common, e.g. P Petr II. 13(19).12 (mid. iii/B.C.) ὅπως τ [οῦτό ]ν γε τὸν χρόνον παρεπιδημῆις, ";in order that for this season at least you may sojourn with us"; (Ed.), BGU I. 113.12 (A.D. 143) βουλόμενος παρεπιδημεῖν πρὸς καιρόν, P Oxy III. 473.2 (A.D. 138–160) a decree in honour of a gymnasiarch by the magistrates and people of Oxyrhynchus together with the ";resident"; Roman and Alexandrian citizens—Ῥ ]ω ̣μαίων καὶ Ἀλεξανδρέων τοῖς παρεπιδημοῦσι, and Aristeas 110 προσέταξε μὴ πλέον εἴκοσιν ἡμερῶν παρεπιδημεῖν. With Hebrews 11:13 we may compare IosPE i. 22.37 τῶν παρεπιδημούντων ξένων.
