Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἐπιπορεύομαι. In P Petr II. 10(1)" (c. B.c. 240) ἐ. is used of the ““ visit” of an administrator who makes extortionate demands on the hospitality of the natives—émuropeverat ἡμῖν συντάσσων διδόναι εἰς τὰ ξένια χῆνας cB, ἡμῶν οὐ δυναμένων, ““ comes to see us, and orders us to give him for his entertainment twelve geese, this being out of our power’’ (Ed.). The verb is fairly common in legal documents = ‘‘ proceed against,” e.g. P Tebt II. 383° (A.D. 46) kal μὴ ἐπιπορεύεσθαι ἑκάτερον τῷ ἑτέρῳ [ἐ]φ᾽ ἃ ὁ ἕτίερος αὐτῶν κεκλή]ρωται τρόπῳ μηθενί, ‘and neither shall proceed against the other on any account in respect of the shares which each of them has received”’ (Edd.): see also Modica Jntroduzione, p. 120f. For the simple meaning ‘‘ journey to” cf. P Lille I. 378 (after 8.6. 241) συντετάχαμεν Μιύσει τῶι τοπ[ογρ(αμματεῖ) ἐπὶ] τού> , επισκέπτομαι θύε πᾶσι τοῖς θεοῖς. ἐφ᾽ ἕκαστον ἱερὸν ἐπιπορεύου προσκυνῶν, and cf. such an expression as P Tor I. 11. 18 (p.c. 117) καὶ μὴ ἐξεῖναι ἐπὶ τὰ τῶν τετελευτηκότων ἐπιπορεύεσθαι, where it is forbidden to ‘‘ approach ” the affairs of the dead, with the view of administering the inheritance, until certain conditions have been fulfilled: see the editor’s note p. 166. We may add Heraclitus Frag. 71 ψυχῆς πείρατα οὐκ ἂν ἐξεύροιο πᾶσαν ἐπιπορευόμενος ὁδόν' οὕτω βαθὺν λόγον ἔχει, ‘travelling over the whole road.
