Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἐκκομίζω is used of carrying out for burial, as in Lk γ13, in BGU I. 326%? (ii/A.D.) ἐκκο[μι]σθῆναι περιστ[αλ]ῆναί τε ἐμαυτὸ[ν] θέλω τῇ φροντίδι καὶ εὐσεβείᾳ τῶν [κ]ληρονόμων pov. For ἃ more general sense cf. PSI IV. 436° (B.c. 248--7) ἐκκομίζεσθαι τὰ ὀψώνια, P Lille [. 37) (after B.c. 241) λόγους ἐκκομίζεσθαι, P Lond 21% (B.c. 162) (= I. p. 13) ἐκκ[ο]μίσασθαι σύνταξιν, P Fay 1274 (c. B.c. 103) ἐξεκομισάμην α[ὐτ]ό, “1 recovered it ””—of a pawned garment which had been redeemed. The verb is contrasted with εἰσκομίζω in OGTS 629% αἱ. (A.D. 137). ἐκκοπή (ἐνκοπή). This somewhat rare word is found in its literal sense of “cutting” or ‘‘cutting down” in BGU IV. 11212? (B.c. 5) tvdelas] ἐκκοπήν, P Lond 21474 (a.p. 270-5) (= II. p. 162) where with reference to the cutting down of two acacia trees an official is sent to inspect τῆς ἐκ[κοπ]ῆς τὴν διάθεσιν, and P Gen I. 627 (mid. ἵνα. Ὁ.) τεχνίτας πρὸς τὴν ἐκκοπὴν τῶν ξύλων, cf. ", The derived meaning of ‘‘ hindrance” in ,’ ἐκλείπω the only occurrence of the word in the NT (1 Cor 913) may be illustrated from Vett. Valens p. 27 éykomds τῶν πρασσομένων : the adj. ἐγκοπτικός, also occurs fer, e.g. p. 182}3 κωλυτικοὶ καὶ ἐγκοπτικοὶ δόξης καὶ ὠφελείας. ἐκκόπτω (ἐνκόπτω). For the literal usage, as in Mt 319 εἰς., cf. P Fay 1131 (A.D. 100) ἐξ αὐτὸν ἐκκόψαι θέλι φυτά, “he wishes to cut down some of the trees” (Edd.), and similarly rrq!4, P Oxy VI. 8921 (A.D. 338) ἵνα... διὰ ταχέων ταῦτα ἐκκόψας παρενεχθῆναι ποιήσῃς, ““ἴο get the timber cut and delivered ” (Edd.). See also BGU I. 72° (A.p. 191) ἐξέκοψαν πλεῖστον τόπον ἐν ἀρούραις πέντε. A good parallel to the NT usage, as in 1 Th 218 (where see Milligan’s note), is afforded by P Alex 4? (iii/B.c.) (= Witkowski*, p. 51) ἡμῖν ἐνκόπτεις kaha: cf. Vett. Val. p. 268° ἐὰν μή πως ἀκτὶς ἀγαθοποιῶν συνδραμοῦσα τὰ πόλλα τῶν φαύλων ἐκκόψῃ. The verb is intrans. in 726. p. 26074 ὥσπερ γὰρ τροχὸς κυλιόμενος ἐνέκοψεν (sc. ἡ Σελήνη) ἐπὶ τὴν ἰδίαν ἐλθοῦσα ἐποχήν.
