Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

Γαλλίων. See Deissmann’s S/. Pau/, App. I., where, following Ramsay (Zx/. VII. vii. p. 467 ff.), it is shown on the evidence of a Delphic inscription, published by Bourguet De rebus Delphicis, 1905, p. 63 f., that Gallio entered on his pro-consulship in the summer of A.D. 51, and a fixed point is thus secured for determining the chronology of Paul's life. The name occurs P ἈΝ] II. 155 (a.p. 138-61).
