δια-γίνομαι : 2 aor. διεγενόμην ; 1. to be through, continue. 2. to be between, intervene; hence in Grk. writ. fr. Isaeus (p. 84, 14, 9 [or. de Hagn. hered.] χρόνων διαγενομένων) down, the aor. is used of time, to have intervened, elapsed, passed meanwhile, (ef. χρόνου μεταξὺ διαγενομένου Lys. 93, 6]: ἡμερῶν διαγενομένων τινῶν, Acts xxv. 13; ἱκανοῦ χρόνου διαγενομένου, Acts xxvii. 9 ; διαγενομένου τοῦ σαββάτου, Mk. xvi. 1.

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

διαγίνομαι. P Strass I. 413 (A.D. 250) πολὺς χρόνος διαγέγονεν. διαγινώσκω. The verb is found = ‘“‘ decide” in P Vebt I. 17? (8.6. 114) ἐπεὶ διέγνωσται, and 10. 55° (private letter—late ii/B.C.) ἐπεὶ διέγνωκα ἐξοδεύσειν e[i]s Τεβτῦνιν τῆι ἡ ἔκρινα γράψαι, **since I have decided to travel to T. on the 8th, I have determined to write to you” (Edd.). The phrase ὁ βασιλεὺς διαγνώσεται occurs several times in the long papyrus regarding the affairs of Theodorus, the architect, P Petr III. 43 (B.c. 245): the editors render ‘‘the king shall take cognisance.”” The same formula occurs in P Amh IT. 2978, a contemporary document. It is to be classed with other instances of the technical legal use of διαγινώσκειν, which appears in Ac 24%. Cf. CPR 18? (A.D. 124) ὑ[πη]γόρευσεν ἀπὸ [ν]όμω[ν δι]ε[γνῶσθα[ι1] κατὰ λέξ[ιν, ‘‘clictirte . folgendes Erkenntniss nach dem Worilaut des Gesetzes” (Ed.), P Hal 1. 1135 (mid. iii/s.c.) ἐὰν δέ [τ]τ[ν]ων φασκόντῶν (/. τινες φάσκωσιν) εἶν[αι] τῆς [ἀ)ποσκευῆς, οἱ δικασταὶ πίερ]ὶ τούτου δ[ι]αγινωσκέϊτω]σαν, P Oxy VII. 1032° (A.D. 162) ἔντυχε οὖν τῷ κρατίστῳ ἐ]πισί τρα]τήγῳ, ὃς παρόντος αὐτοῦ περὶ τ]οῦ πράγματος δια[γν]ώσετί α]ι, 7, VILL. ττιγϑ (c.

For the technical use of this word (= cogz7tio) in Wisd 318, Ac 255), see P Hib I. 9319 (ες. B.c. 250) ἡ Stdy[vwors περὶ "» ‘ διαδέχομαι αὐτοῦ ἔσ]τω πρὸς βασίιλικά, ““ decision about his case shall be made with reference to the royal decrees’’ (Edd.). This early instance disposes of Deissmann’s statement (ZA£Z, p- 346 n*.) that the word is not found in this sense until the end of ii/a.p., 7G XIV. 1072 ἐπὶ. . . διαγνώσεων τοῦ Σεβαστοῦ, ‘a...
