Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἁλυκός. BGU I. τ4ῖν. 2 (iii/a.p.) τυρῶν ἁλυκῶν, 7. IV. 1069 versol.9 τιμὴ ζύτου εὐπρατικ[οὔ] καὶ ἁλυκῆς : the last two words are interlinear, and their relation is not clear— av apa the writer is illiterate enough to mean ‘cheap and salted beer,” no doubt a popular beverage then as now. But query? Mayser Gr. p. 102 shows that ἁλικός, really a distinct word, supplants the earlier ἁλυκός in Hellenistic.
