Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
εἰδωλολάτρης No instance has been found as yet in profane Greek, but we may compare such analogous forms as ᾿Ισιεῖον and’ Avovβιεῖον, shrines dedicated to Isis and Anubis: see e.g. P Tebt I. 57°f (B.c. 118). The invitation in P Oxy I. 110 (ii/A.D.) δειπνῆσαι εἰς κλείνην τοῦ κυρίου Σαράπιδος ἐν TO Σαραπείῳ, ““ἴο sup at the table (couch) of the lord Serapis in the Serapeum”’ is also an excellent illustration of 1 Cor 8, 107,27; cf. P Oxy III. 523 (ii/a.D.) (= Selections, p. 97) and Wilcken Archiv iv. p. 211.
