ἐπιγίνομαι [page 236]
ἐπιγίνομαι is common of time , e.g. P Lond 42 .23 (B.C. 168) (= I. p. 30, Selections , p. 10) μὴ ὅτι γε τοσούτου χρόνου ἐπιγεγονότος , P Fay 11 .19 ( c. B.C. 115) τῶν τῆς ἀποδόσεως χρόνων διεληλυθότων καὶ ἄλλων ἐπιγεγονότων πλεόνων , the periods fixed for the repayment have passed, and still further periods elapsed (Edd.). In P Oxy II. 246 .18 (A.D. 66) the verb is used of lambs born after a first registration καὶ νῦ [ν ] ἀπογράφομαι τοὺς ἐπ [ιγε ]γονότας εἰς τὴν ἐνεστ [ῶσαν ] δευτέραν ἀπογραφήν : cf. P Ryl II. 111 .12 (census-return A.D. 161) ἀν ]αγεγρα (μμένον ) ἐν ἐπιγεγενημ (ένοις ), OGIS 56 .19 (B.C. 237) ὑπόμνημα καταλείποντες τοῖς τε νῦν οὖσιν καὶ τοῖς ἐπιγινομένοις . See further P Par 45 .8 (B.C. 153) εὐλαβοῦμαι τὸν ἐνδίκτην τὰ πλῖστα , τ̣ὰ (= ἃ ) πράσεις , μὴ ἐπ̣ι̣γε̣ν̣[οι ]το̣, where Witkowski (Epp. .2 , p. 85) understands ἐπιγίνομαι as = de improviso appareo, aggredior : cf. Act_28:13 , and See Hobart, p. 290. The double compound ἐπιπαραγίνομαι is found P Petr III. 31 .7 (B.C. 240). The subst. ἐπιγονή = offspring, descendants, as in 2Ch_31:16 , is common, e.g. P Par 63 .156 (B.C. 164) τὴν τούτων ἐπιγονήν . See also the editors note in P Tebt I. p. 556 ff. on the meaning of the phrase τῆς ἐπιγονῆς .
