Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἑξῆς. For this word in reierence to ¢27e, as in all its NT occurrences, cf. P Oxy II. 25727 (A.p. 94-5) τοῦ ἑξῆς ἢ (ἔτους), “of the following 8th year,” zd. VII. 10358 (A.D. 143) τοῦ ἑξῆς μηνὸς Φαμενώθ, “of the next month Phamenoth,” and τῇ ἑξῆς (sc. ἡμέρᾳ) following a preceding σήμερον. With the τ. ἐν τῷ ἑξῆς (probably =év τῷ ἑξῆς χρόνῳ) ‘soon afterwards’ (RV), in Lk 71} cf. the MGr στὸ ἑξῆς, ‘‘ for the future,” which Thumb (Handbook, p. 328) quotes from Aegina. In P Hamb I. 12! (A.p. 209-10) the heading 4 ἐπίσκεψις ἑξῆς δηλοῦται = ‘the revision is carried on further in this column,” and in 21 the same words = ‘‘ the revision is carried on further in the following column”: see p- 46. The thought of ‘‘in order,” ‘“‘suitably,” appears in such passages as P Par 2648 (B.c. 163-2) (= Selectzons, p- 18) ἵνα, πᾶν τὸ ἑξῆς ἔχουσαι, πολλῷ μᾶλλον τὰ νομιΐζόμενα... ἐπιτελῶμεν, “that, when we have everything in order, we may be much better able to perform our regular duties,” P Oxy II. 2827 (A.D. 30-35) é]y® μὲν οὖν ἐπεχορήγησα αὐτῇ τὰ ἑξῆς καὶ ὑπὲρ δύναμιν, “1 for my part provided for her what was suitable and indeed beyond my resources”: cf. P Tebt II. 319%4 (A.D. 248) where an agreement regarding the division of property after the enumeration of certain particulars concludes—kal τὰ ἑξῆς, ‘‘and so on,” indicating, as the editors point out, that the document is a copy of the original, breaking off at the immediately preceding word, and omitting the concluding formula. ἐξίστημι, ἐξιστάω, ἐξιστάνω. The verb is common in the sense of “resign ’”’ property, etc., e.g. P Oxy 11. 2681} (a.p. 58) ἡ δὲ ᾿Ωφελοὺς kal ad[ri]e ἐξέσταται τῶι ᾿Αντιφάνει τοῦ kat αὐτὴν μ[έϊρους τῶν ὑπὸ τοῦ μετηλλαχότος αὐτῆς πατρὸς Ἡρακλᾶτος ἀπολελιμμένων πάντων, ‘‘and Ophelous on her part resigns to Antiphanes her share of all the property left by her late father Heraclas”’ (Edd.), P Tebt II. 3801 (a.p. 67), P Ryl II. 7561%18 (late ii/A.D.), 26. 11727 (A.D. 269) αἰ. IV. 1208°? (B.c. 27): cf. also 25. 11. 53018 (i/a.p.) (= Selections, p. 61) κινδυνεύω ἐκστῆναι οὗ ἔχω [κλή]ρου, “I run the risk of losing the allotment which I now possess.’’ See further for the usage of Mk 371, 2 Cor 515, A/enandrea p. 475 ἐξέστηχ᾽ ὅλως, and 7d. p. 5727° eélornKa] viv τελέως ἐμαυτοῦ kal παρώξυμ[μαι σ]φόδρα, and Vett. Val. p. 70% πρὸς γὰρ καὶ ταῖς διανοίαις ἐκστήσονται. The trans. use ““ bewilder,” “confound,” as in Lk 2455, Ac 89, is illustrated by Musonius Ρ. 351° ταῦτα γὰρ δὴ τὰ ἐξιστάντα Kal φοβοῦντα τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ἐστίν, ὅ τε θάνατος καὶ ὁ πόνος.
