Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἀμπελών. Nothing earlier than Diodorus (i/B.c.) in ‘‘ profane” Greek is cited for this word by Grimm. It occurs in five documents of P Tebt I., three of them ii/B.c.,and two a little later: cf. also the Ptolemaic P Eleph 14? τῶν μὲν ἀμπελώνων τοὺς καθήκοντας ἀργυρικοὺς φόρους. Its appearance in P Hib I. 151 (c. B.C. 250) is presumably coeval with the LXX; nor does the language (. . . μὴ παραγίνεσθαι «ον τρυγήσοντα Toy ἀμπελῶνα, from a fragment of a letter) suggest that the word was new. It occurs indeed frequently in Rev L, a few years older still. For an instance contemporary with its NT appearances, see PSI 82° (A.D. 65) ᾿Αμπλίας 28 τῶι ὑπάρχοντι ἡμῖν... ἀμπελῶνι: cf. P Tebt II. 357%® (A.D. 197) τέλ(η) . . . ἀμπελῶνο(ς) κατοικ(ικοῦ) (ἀρούρας) a, ‘‘taxes upon I aroura of catcecic vine-land.” The suffix -dy (like -é¢z in Latin) denoting plantations of trees was productive in Hellenistic: see under ἐλαιών.
