Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἐκεῖσε [page 194] P Thead 21 .8 (A.D. 318) τίνες κακοῦργοι ἐπιστάντες ἐκεῖσε διὰ νυκτός κτλ ., and a Cairo papyrus, Chrest. I. 240 .9 (A.D. 322) γενο̣[μ ]ενοι ἐκεῖσε . For ἐκεῖσε = ἐκεῖ , cf. PSI III. 162 .11 (A.D. 286) παραμεῖναι ἐν τῷ ἐκῖσαι ( l. ἐκεῖσε ) κατασκευαζομένῳ βαλανίῳ , ib. IV. 298 .6 (iv/A.D. ad init. ) μόνον μῆνα ἕνα ἐκεῖσε διαμείναντος , P Oxy IX. 1204 .6 (A.D. 299) πρὸς ἐκσφούνγευσιν (cf. Lat. expungere ) τῶν ἐκεῖσε διακειμένων στρατιωτῶν , for the discharge of the soldiers stationed there. This pregnant construction ( Act_22:5 τοὺς ἐκεῖσε ὄντας , those who were (collected) there ) is illustrated by P Petr II. 45 ii. 4 (B.C. 246) where, if we may trust the restoration, the writer probably Ptolemy III. himself (cf. P Petr III. p. 336) describes how certain ships, acting in his interest, sailed along the coast of Cilicia to Soli and took on board τὰ ἐ [κεῖ ?] σε κατασκεθέντ [α χρή ]ματα , the money that had been seized (and carried) there.
