ἐνοχλέω. This common verb, as in Greek writers generally, is construed both with the acc. and the dat. As exx. of the former constr. we may cite P Hib I. 567 (B.c. 249) σὺ οὖν μὴ ἐνόχλει [α]ὐτόν, P Leid Wt 54 (ii/iii A.D.) μαθὼν δὲ τὸν κύριον τῆς ἡμέρα (/.—as), ἐκεῖνον ἐνόχλει λέγων" Κύριε κτλ., and P Oxy VI. 89944 (A.D. 200) where a woman petitions that the collectors of certain dues should not be allowed ἐνοχλεῖσθαί pe γυναῖκα οὖσ[α]ν ἄνανδρον καὶ ἀβοήθητον, ‘to harass me, a woman without a husband or helper” (Edd.): cf. from the inscrr. Sy// 2531 (ili/B.c.) γέγρα[φ]α τῶι "Ηρακλείδηι μὴ ἐνο[χ]λεῖν ὑμᾶς. For the dat. constr. see P Tebt II. 2868 (a.p. 121--38) σὺ δὲ περὶ τῶν οὐ ζη[τ]ουμένων ἐνοχλεῖ (/.—etv) μοι θέλεις, “but you still wish to trouble me about points which are not at issue ” (Edd.), P Oxy VII. 1068" (iii/A.p.) ἐφ᾽ ᾧ μηδὶς ἐνοχλήσι aire, 7. IX. 1221° (iii/iv A.D.) τῷ οὖν Ζωιλᾷ μὴ ἐνόχλει περὶ τούτου, and from the inscrr. Sy// 418% (a.p. 238) οὐδεὶς ἡμεῖν ἐνόχλησεν. P Tebt 11. 335!* (mid. ili/a.p.) παύεσθαί pov τὸν ὀφφικιάλιον τῆς τάξεως ἐνο[χλοῦντα]. ἐνοχλεῖ γάρ μοι κτλ., “that the magistrates’ subordinate may give up troubling me. For he troubles me” etc.— shows an unusual construction with the gen. due to the influence of παύεσθαι. For the pass. we may cite P Petr II. 16!° (mid. ili/B.c.) (= Witkowski, p. 12) ἵνα μη]θὲν ἐνοχλῆται τὸ οἰκόπεδον, OG/S 669% (i/a.D.) wre (1. μὴ) μάτην ἐνοχλείσθωσαν. In Ῥ Hamb I. 2752 (B.c. 250) συνέβη οὖμ μοι ἐνοχληθῆναι ἐμ Φιλαδελφείαι [ὥστε ἀσχολί]αν με ἔχειν τῆι ἡμέραι ἐκείνηι, the verb does not seem to mean much more than ‘“‘ be engaged.” In P Petr II. 25 (a)* eis ἵππον évoxAovpevoy = “for a sick horse.” For διενοχλέω see BGU IIL. 8308 (i/a.D.) διενοχλ[ο]ύμενος ὃ αὐτοῦ καρπώνης.
