Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
διδαχή. The word is used of military instruction or training in an Imperial letter, which Wilcken (cf. d7chzv ii. p. 170) dates in the time of Hadrian—BGU 1. 140!® (a.p.. 119) καὶ τ]οῦτο οὐκ ἐδόκει σκληρὸν [εἶναι [τοὐν]αντίον αὐτῶν τῆ[ς] στρατιω[τ]ικῆϊς διδα]χῆς πεποιηκότων. An interesting parallel to Mk 157 occurs in the new uncanonical gospel, P Oxy X. 1224 Fr, 2 verso® π[ο]ίαν σέ [φασιν διδα]χὴν καιν[ὴν] δι[δάσκειν, ἢ τί β]άϊπτισμ]α καινὸν [κηρύσσειν ; “what is the new doctrine that they say thou teachest, or what the new baptism that thou dost preach ?’’ (Idd.)
