Ζακχαῖος. This proper name is restored by Wilcken (Archiv ii. p- 174 n.%) in one of Crum’s Coptic Ostraca—4357 Za]kXatos. Caw. For this common verb = “‘live” it is enough to cite such passages as P Petr ITI. 13 (19)? (B.c. 258-253) καὶ ζῶντός σου kal εἰς θεοὺς ἀπελθόντος, 20. III. 27! (B.c. 236) ἕ]ως ἂν ἐγὼ ζῶι, P Oxy III. 4727 (c. Α.Ὁ. 130) ἄλλοι πολλοὶ τὸν θάνατον τοῦ ζῆν προκρείναντες, 16. VI. 9375 (iii/A.p.) ἐὰν οὖν ζήσω χρόνον καὶ ἔλθω εἰς τὴν πατρίδα μου ἐκδικήσω ἐμαυτόν, 10. XII. 14775 (question to an oracle—iii/iv A.D.) el ζῇ ὁ ἀπόδημος ; As might be expected, the word is constantly found in sepulchral epitaphs, e.g. Preisigke 173° | (c. A.D. 200) T. Αὐρήλιος... ζήσας ἔτη ve. For the phrase ἔτι ζῶν, as in Mt 27%, cf. C. and B. ii. p. 660 No. 618 (A.D. 193-4) Ζώσιμος [— τοῖς tlékvois . . . kal ἑαυτῷ ἔτι ζῶν κατεσκεύασεν. The articular inf. is very common in the vernacular—P Par 6313 (8.0, 165) τὰ πρὸς τὸ ζῆν, “the means of living,’ P Tebt II. 28315 (B.c. 93 or 60) κινδυνωι (1. κινδυνεύει) τῶι ζῆν, “her life is in danger,” 20. 3041 (A.D. 167-8) ὡς ἐκ τούτου τῷ ζῆν κινδυνεύειν, “so that his life is endangered in consequence,” P Lond 84611 (a poor weaver’s petition—a.D. 140) (= III. p. 131) μισθοῦ πορίζοντος τὸ ζῆν, OG/S 515%? (iii/A.D.) Td ζῆν οὐκ ἔχομεν : cf. Heb 215, and see Proleg. p. 215. With ζῆν ἐκ, “get a living from,” as in 1 Cor 914, cf. P Oxy VIII. 11171 (c. a.p. 178) μέτρια κεκτήμεθα ἐξ ὧν καὶ μόλις ζῶμεν, 74. ΧΤΙ. 155722 ] (A.D. 255) ἐξ αὐτῶν τὸ ζῆν ποριζομένῳ, P Meyer 20% (1st half 1114.10.) ἐργαζέσθω Λουκιᾶς καὶ ζώτω ἐκ τοῦ μισθαρου (Δ μισθαρίου) αὐτῆς (cf. 2 Th 31}. A.D.) the verb is construed with the dat.—&ptw καὶ ὕδατι ζῶν. For the deeper meaning of the verb we may refer to an inscr. which Sir W. M. Ramsay formerly placed among ] Christian inserr., but now assigns to mystic paganism (see his Recent Discovery, p. 176), C. and B. ii. p. 565 No. 463 ζῶσιν μ]έγαν klvBu[vlov ἐκπεφευ[γ]ότες, “they live, having escaped great danger.” In P Oxy VI. 924", a Gnostic charm of iv/A.p., a certain “Apela is described as δούλη... τοῦ θ(εο)ῦ τοῦ ζῶντος, and in 74. 9437, a Christian letter of vi/A.D., we have the common LXX phrase ζῇ Κύριος, ‘as the Lord lives.” See also the magical P Par 574198 (iii/A.p.) ἐπιτάσσει σοι ὁ μέγας ζῶν θεός. In Sy// 852° (ii/B.c.) μέχρι κα ᾿Αρχέλαος ζώιη, the verb would seem to be opt., for 26. 856" (ii/B.c.) shows subj. ζῇ--ἕως κα ζῇ Θευδώρα. A familiar fairy-tale phrase occurs in Musonius, p. 309, τὸ εὐδαιμονεῖν καὶ ζῆν μακαρίως εἰς τὸ λοιπόν. According to Boisacq (p. 309) this verb is ‘‘une invention des grammairiens”: the Attic ζῶ represents ἔζηιω. The | drachmae” : connexion between this form and the aor. ἐβίων, and their relation to δίαιτα and ὑγιής are revealed in the base gueié = “live.” MGr {6 and ζιῶ.
