Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἐπεισαγωγή [page 231]
We have found no instance as yet of this interesting subst. ( Heb_7:19 ), but the verb is used as a term. techn. in marriagecontracts, forbidding a man to introduce another woman into his house, e.g. P Eleph 1 .6 (B.C. 311 0) (= Selections, p. 3) μὴ ἐξέστω δὲ Ἡρακλείδηι γυναῖκα ἄλλην ἐπεισάγεσθαι ἐφ ὕβρει Δημητρίας , P Giss I. 2 i. 20 (B.C. 173), BGU IV. 1050 .16 (time of Augustus). This would seem to justify the RV translation of Heb l.c. a bringing in thereupon or besides, as against Field Notes , p. 227. See also the verbal ἐπείσακτος in Ostr 757 .4 (B.C. 106 5) σὺν τῷ ἐπισάκτῳ with reference apparently to imported wine : cf. the use of παρείσακτος in Gal_2:4 . Musonius (p. 6 .12 ) has εἰ ὅλον ἐπείσακτον τὸ τῆς ἀρετῆς ἦν , καὶ μηδὲν αὐτοῦ φύσει ἠμῖν μετῆν . . .
