Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
δένδρον. The heteroclite pl. δένδρη occurs in P Hal I. 1% (c. Be. 250), where it is laid down that one who plants an olive ora fig-tree must do it 9 ft. from his neighbour’s boundary, τ[ὰ δ᾽] ἄλλα δένδρη πέντε [πό]δας. So in Sy// 802!*! (iii/B.c.) where a blind man ‘incubating ” in the Asclepieum dreamed that the god pulled his eyes open with his fingers, καὶ ἰδεῖν τὰ δένδρη πρᾶτον τὰ ἐν τῶι ἱαρῶι : the resemblance in language to Mk 8*4 may be noted. The same inscr. tells of a man who fell ἀπὸ τοῦ δένδρεος (1.°1—he had climbed ἐπὶ δένδρεόν τι in 1.59) : Attic preserved the dat. pl. δένδρεσι. Perhaps by fusion of δένδρεον and δένδρος (neut.) the regular δένδρον arose, which is normal in Hellenistic. Thus νὰ 53518 (Boeotian—late iv/B.c.) τὰ δένδρα ὅσ᾽ ἂν εἶ ἐν τῶι χωρίωι, 7. 53215 (Ionic—early iv/B.c.) δένδρα ἕμερα μὴ KomTevy—‘‘tame”’ trees are the opposite of “νας, 20. 7907 (i/B.c.), etc. It is needless to quote papyri for the word, MGr δέντρο, also δεντρί (ὦ ε. SevSplov) and diminutive δεντράκι.
