Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

λειτουργικός is found in a taxation-roll P Petr II. 39 (ε) (1) (iii/B.c.) λειτουργικὸν ty, where it is preceded by φυλακιτικόν (policetax) and followed by ἰατρικόν (medical-tax) : cf. also P Tebt I. 54° (B.c. 118) ἀφει]ᾶσει δὲ πάν[τ]ας kal τοῦ ὀφειλομένου Aeroupy[t]kod, “‘and they remit to every one the arrears of the work-tax ” (Edd.), 2d. 102% (a receipt—B.c. 77?) διαγέyp(adas) τὸ λει(τουργικὸν) τοῦ ὃ (ἔτους), ‘you have paid the work-tax of the 4th year’’ (Edd.) ; the reference seems to be toa payment instead of personal service (cf. Wilcken Ostr. i. p. 382). The special sense of ve/igzous service, as in the LXX and NT (Heb 114), is seen in 26. 888 (B.c. 115-4) γραφὴν (2 γραφὴ) ἱερῶν καὶ πρ[οφ]ητηῶν καὶ ἡμερῶν λειτουργικῶν, with reference to ‘‘ days of service” rendered at the shrines at Kerkeosiris: see the editors’ introd., and cf. Wilcken Chrest. I. p. 94, Otto Priester ii. pp. 33 n.*, 39 n.?.
