Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

κατάλυμα [page 329] For this noun (the Hellenistic equivalent of καταγωγεῖον ), as in Luk_2:7 (cf. Exo_4:24 ), see P Par 34 .5 (ii/B.C.) εἰς τὸ κατάλυμα τῶν Ἀρσινοϊτῶν , where the reference is to the lodging-place provided for the inhabitants of Arsinoλ in the Serapeum. Elsewhere in Biblical Greek, e.g. 1Ki_1:13 , Mar_14:14 , it has rather the sense of guest-room. Κατάλυσις is similarly used in P Petr II. 14(1 b ) .2 τὴν βασιλεικὴν κατάλυσιν , where Mahaffy notes that the Royal quarters served PS an inn for ihe convenience of officials who visited the place. In P Magd 8 .10 (B.C. 218) we have κατ ]άλυσιν τοῦ βίου , the dissolution of life. MGr κατάλυμα , lodging.
