κομίζω: 1 aor. ptep. fem. κομίσασα; Mid., pres. ptep. κομιζόμενος; 1 fut. κομίσομαι (Eph. vi. 8 LT Tr WH; Col. iii. 25 Ltxt.

Hom. down freq. in various senses ; 1. to care for, take care of, provide for. 2. to take up or carry away in order to care for and preserve. 3. univ. to carry away, bear off. 4. to carry, bear, bring to: once so in the N.

Since in the rewards and punishments of deeds, the deeds themselves are as it were requited and so given back to their authors, the meaning is obvious when one is said κομίζεσθαι that which he has done, i. 6. either the reward or the punishment of the deed [W. 620 sq. (576)]: 2Co, v.10; Col. iii. 25; with παρὰ κυρίου added, Eph. vi. 8; ([duapriav, Lev. xx. 17]; ἕκαστος, καθὼς ἐποίησε, κομιεῖται, Barn. ep. 4, 12). [Comp.: ék-, συγκομίζω.

κομίζω in the sense of “‘bring,’”’ “carry,” asin Lk 737, may be illustrated from P Petr III. 53(4)5 (iii/B.c.) κομιοῦμεν yap σοι ταύτην τε Kal τὴμ πρὸς Tlaykpatny ἐπιστολήν, P Tebt I. 554 (late 11|8.6.} κεκόμικε δέ μοι ὁ παρὰ σοῦ ἄμιος (ἀρτάβην) a, ‘your agent has brought me one artaba of ami” (Edd.), P Oxy 11. 2963 (i/A.D.) δὸς τῷ κομίζοντί σου τὴν ἐπιστολὴν τὴν Aaoypadlay Μνησιθέου, ‘ give the bearer of this letter the poll-tax of Mnesitheus,” and BGU III. ii The middle is very common with the meaning ‘‘receive,”’ e.g. BGU IV. | 12064 (B.c. 28) κεκόμισμαι ἃ ἐγεγράφις (on pluperf. see Proleg. p. 148), P Fay 1148 (A.D. 100) κομισάμενός pov τὴν ἐπιστολήν, ‘on receipt of my letter,” P Oxy VIII. 1153° (i/A.D ) ἐϊκομισάμην διὰ “Hpaxdaros τὰς κίστας [σὺν] τοῖς βιβλίοις, “1 have received through Heraclas the boxes with | the books,” 24. III. 530!° (ii/a.D.) Képrofar] παρὰ X[arp]ἤμονος τ[ο]ῦ κομίζοντός colt] τὸ [ἐπι]στόλιον ἀργυρίου δραχμὰς ἑκατὸν δέκ[α] δύο, ‘receive from Chaeremon the bearer of this letter 112 drachmae of silver,” 126. VI. 963 (ii/iii A.D.) χάριν δέ σοι οἶδα, μῆτερ, ἐπὶ τῇ σπουδῇ τοῦ καθεδραρίου (‘‘stool”’), ἐκομισάμην γὰρ αὐτό, and 2. ΧΤΙ. 14937 (Christian—iii/iv A.D.) ἐκομισάμην σου τὸν υἱὸν εὐρωστοῦντα καὶ ὁλοκληροῦντα διὰ παντός, “1 received your son safe and sound in every respect” (Ε44.). For the further meaning ‘‘receive back,” ‘‘recover,” which the middle apparently has in all its NT occurrences (cf. Hort on 1 Pet 18), we can cite such passages as P Hib I. 54° (c. B.c. 245) (= Chrest. I. p. 563) ἐάν τι δέην ἀνηλῶσαι δός, παρὰ δὲ ἡμ[ῶ]ν Kopr(et), ‘if any expense is necessary, pay it, and you shall recover it from us” (Edd.), and P Tebt I. 4583 (B.C. 113) διὸ ἐπιδίδωμί σοι .. ἵνα τῶν ἐγκαλουμένων κατασταθέντων ἐγὼ μὲν κομίσωμαι τὰ ἐμαυτοῦ, ‘I therefore present this complaint to you in order that the accused having been produced I may recover my property” (Edd.). Hence the use of the verb in connexion with recovering a debt, getting it paid—P Hamb I. 2γ5 (8.6. 250) τὴν δὲ τιμὴν οὔπω ἐκεκόμιστο, Ρ Eleph 13° (B.C. 223-2) περὶ δὲ τῶν εἴκοσι δραχμῶν οὔπω ἐκεκόμιστο Φίλων, ΤῚ᾿στοκλῆς (ὁ -κλέα) [γ]ὰρ οὐχ εὑρήκειμεν, P Oxy I. 10178 (A.D. 142) ἕως τὰ κατ᾽ ἔτος ὀφειλόμενα κομίσηται, ‘until the yearly rent is paid.
