a throwing out.

a jettison, a throwing overboard of cargo: Ac 27:18 (cf. Jos, l.c.; and v. Field, Notes, 144 f.).†

ἐκβολή. With the use of ἐκβολὴν ποιεῖσθαι -- “jettison” in Ac 2738, cf. the directions on the back of a mummy-ticket, Pretsigke 2052, ἐκβολὴν ποιῆσαι is ὅρμον κώμης [ΕΙμμαυ : so 20. 1207. In P Hib I. 110 vecto® (c. B.c. 270) the word is found in a very broken context, and in BGU IV. 111618 (B.c. 13) we have ἐπιβολῆς kal ἐγβολῆς. See also CP Herm I. 1271}:}1 (p. 79), and for medical usage cf. Hobart, p. 143. ἐκγαμίζω, ---ἰσκω. Both these verbs now disappear from the true text of the NT, nor does there seem to be evidence for them elsewhere, except for the former in Pandect. Byz. (LS). Μ Ὁ ἔκγονος 193 ἐκδικέω ἔκγονος. ἐκδημέω. In OG/S 90° (Rosetta stone—B.C. 196) ἐκγόνου θεῶν Φιλοπατόρων, Dittenberger renders ἐν by ‘‘//é7,’’ and compares the restoration in 26. 917, but Wilcken (Archiv iii. p: 321) does not think é suitable in a pure Greek inscr. and prefers τοῦ é[k βασιλέως] IIrod. κτὰ. In 20. 197 Wilcken (Z.c.) renders ἔκγονον by ‘‘ Urenkel,”’ “‘ great-grandchild ’’ : cf. 1 Tim 54 where AV renders ‘‘nephews’”’ = ‘‘ grandchildren,’’ according to the original, but now antiquated, sense of the word. The plur. is common in the general sense of “‘ descendants,” e.g. P Lille I. 451 (B.c. 218-7) ὧι ὑπῆρχεν αὐτῶι ἡ γῆ Kal ἐκγόνοις, CPR I. 14 (Δ... 83-4), P Oxy IX. τ2οοῦβ (A.p. 266) κρατεῖν σε καὶ κυριεύειν σὺν ἐκγόνοις καὶ τοῖς παρὰ σοῦ μεταλημψομένοις τοῦ προκειμένου ψειλοῦ τόπου, and so 2/. 12081}7 (A.D. 291). Down to about B.c. 300 the form ἔγγονος is found in Attic inserr. : see Meisterhans Gr. p. 107 and cf. Mayser Gr p. 228. "Hyyovos survives in MGr = ‘‘ grandchild.” “ec ExOEYO MAL. For the primary meaning ‘‘receive”’ cf. P Lille I. 167 (iii/B.c.) ἀξιοῖ δὲ γράψαι αὐτῶι Képwva ἐγδεχόμενον τὰς μὶ (δραχμάς), P Tebt I. 337 (B.c. 112) (= Selections, p. 30) μεγαλουπρεπέστερον ἐγδεχθήτωι, ‘let him be received with the utmost magnificence,” BGU IV. 1o2qiv-16 (iv/v a.p.) ἐκδέξι τοίνυν] τὴην (/. τὴν) ἕως κεφ[αλῆ]ς τ[ι]μωρίαν. In P Par 6376 (8:6. 164) (=P Petr III. p. 21) τῶν πρὸς ταῖς πραγματείαις οὐ κατὰ Td βέλτιστον ἐγδεχομένων τὸν τοῦ περὶ τῆς γεωργίας προστάγματος νοῦν, Mahaffy translates ‘‘ because the officials do not put the best interpretation on the meaning of the decree concerning agriculture,”’ and in P Petr III. 64 (4)® ἂς ἐξεδέξατο “Ἡράκλειτ[ος . . » he renders ‘‘ which (drachmas) Heracleitus undertook to pay (0) : cf. Gen 43® where Conybeare and Stock (LY. Selections, ). 132) propose the rendering “1 undertake him.” In P Alex 4" (iii/B.c.) ἐγδέδεκται yap Στοτοῆτις ἔχειν σε εἰς τὴν διαλογήν .. . Witkowski (2222, p. 52) regards ἐκδέχομαι as = ‘‘comperio.’’ The derived sense of ‘‘ wait for,” ‘‘ expect,’’as in Jas 5’, is well illustrated by P Flor III. 332° (ii/A.D.) οὐ λανθάνει σε ὅτι δίμηνος σήμερον ἐστάλην τὸν ἄτακτον Λισκᾶν μὴ ἐκδεχόμενόν σου τὴν παρουσίαν : cf. P Oxy IV. 724?" (A.D. 155) ἐὰν δὲ ἐντὸς τοῦ χ[ρ]όνου αὐτὸν ἀπαρτίσῃς οὐκ ἐκδέξομαι τὴν προκειμένην προθεσp[Qav, “if you make him perfect within the period, I will not wait for the aforesaid limit’’ (Edd.), with reference to a contract of apprenticeship, BGU III. 8925 (iii/a.p.) προσ[έδρευσα ἐφ᾽ ἡμέρας δύο ἐκδεχό[μ]ενός σε, P Oxy VI. 93977 (iv/A.D.) (= Selections, p. 130) παραμνυθούμ[ε]θᾳ δὲ αὐτὴν ἑκάστης ὥρας ἐκδεχόμενοι τὴν [σ]ὴν ἄφιξιν. See also Moulton G7. ii. ὃ 119 (a).
