Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἰσάγγελος, which in Biblical Greek is confined to Lk 20%, is found in the Christian epitaph Aazbe/ 5425 1---᾿Ισκαριώτης : ὡς viv ἔμοιγε τῆς ἰσαγ[γέλου τύχης ἐχθρῶν ποτ᾽ εἴ τις ἐπ[ιγελῶν ἁβρύνεται. For the formation of the compound we may compare ἰσόθεος from Sy// 2028, 289%, ἰσοβασιλεύς from P Ryl 11. 6215 (iii/A.D.), and ἰσουράνιος (not in LS) from a metrical epitaph of the Ptolemaic age in the Gizeh Museum BCH xx. (1896), p. 1919 συγγενική(ν) τε φορῶν δόξαν ἰσουρανίαν (written trovp-in BCH). See also s.v. ἰσότιμος, and cf. MGr ἰσόβαρος.
