Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἐσθής ἔρχομαί σοι, unfortunately in a somewhat obscure context (Aesch. Prom. Vinct. 358 ἀλλ᾽ ἦλθεν αὐτῷ Ζηνὸς ἄγρυπνον βέλος is a classical parallel to the construction): and with t Cor 117° cf. P Tebt II. 416” (iii/A.p.) ποίησον αὐτῆς τὴν xplav ἕως ἔλθω, ‘supply her needs until I come.” Predsigke 1142 Μηνόφιλος ἐλθών (a wall-scratching from El-Amarna) shows ἐλθών used like ἥκω (cf. 2. 1143) of a worshipper (cf. Jn 637). The intermediate form in which Ist aor. terminations are attached to the 2nd aor. appears in BGU II. 530! (i/a.p.) οὔτε ἀντέγραψας οὔτε ἦλθας (other exx. in Deissmann BS, p- 191). For the perf. and aor. used together (see Pro/eg. p- 142 f.) cf. BGU I. 278 (ii/A.p.) els γῆν ἐλήλυθα τῇ ς τοῦ ᾿Εἰπεὶφ μηνός, καὶ ἐξε[κ]ένωσα μὲν τῇ ἴ τοῦ αὐτοῦ μηνός.
