Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἔξυπνος. The adverb is found P Giss I. 194 (ii/A.D.) ὅτι ἐξζ[ὑπνως ἐζξϊῆλθες am ἐμοῦ. MGr ἔξυπνος, “‘ wide-awake,” COchanpyey su Cleverers hence For this common adverb we may refer to the numerous nursing-contracts in BGU IV. where a very general provision is that the child shall be cared for & κατὰ πόλιν, that is ‘‘outside” the house of the person who gives it in charge, but ‘‘in the town”’: thus in 11088 (B.C. 5) the nurse promises—tpoevoev καὶ θηλάσειν ἔξω παρ᾽ ἑατῇ κατὰ πόλ(ιν) : see further Archiv ν. p. 38. In PSI IV. 340!° (8.6. 2575 6) ἐπμῦνταν δὲ ἔξω τε σκηνοῦντα, ἔξω is opposed to ἐν τῆι χώραι, and for a similar contrast with ἔσω cf. BGU IV. 1141°! (B.c. 14) περὶ δὲ Ἐϊύστου μοι γράφεις, ὅτι ἔξωι καχεκτεύεται, ἤ ( -- εἴ) τι μὲν ὃ σύνδουλος αὐτὸν δυνήσεται συστῆσαι, ἐγὼ οὐκ ἐπίσταμαι, οὐδὲ γὰρ καθεύδωι ἔσωι ἵνα εἰδῶι. Exx. of the adv. equivalent to an adj., as in Ac 26", are BGU IV. 11145 (p.c. 4) ἐν tots ἔξω τόποις, and P Oxy VI. 903%° (iv/A.D.) τὰς ἔξω θύρας. For the word as a prep. c. gen., as in 2 Cor 48, cf. P Oxy III. 480" (A.D. 132), a declaration in a census-return that no one dwells in a certain house—ttm τῶν προγ(εγραμμένων), “except the aforesaid,’’ and the phrase ἔξω ἱεροῦ βωμοῦ, with reference to the being ‘‘ outside” the protection of a temple and altar, as discussed s.v. βωμός. The collocation δεῦρ᾽ ἔξω (Jn 114%) is found in Aenandrea p- 355) διόπερ ὑπεκδέδυκα δεῦρ᾽ ἔξω λάθρᾳ, and for the comp. cf. P Oxy III. 49513 (ii/A.p.) τῶν μὲν ἐξωτέρω λίθων κύβων καμηλικῶν, ‘the outer squared camel stones.” In P Rev L*l.18 (jii/p.c.) ἔξω ὅρα ‘cat the end of the line, ‘look outside,’ calls attention to the fact that a note on the verso is to be inserted at this point” (Edd.). A quaint parallel to ot ἔξω (e.g. in Col 4°) is seen in the MGr ὁ ἔξω am ἐδώ, ‘he who is far from this place,” meaning ‘the devil.” The word is also found in ΜΟΥ under the forms ὄξω, ὄξου.
