Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
λογίζομαι καλέσαι Νίκωνα περὶ τῆς λογέας, “urge on Nicon concerning the collection.” An excellent illustration, almost contemporary with 1 Cor, is afforded by P Oxy 11. 2398 (a.p. 66) ὀμνύω... μηδεμίαν λογείαν γεγονέναι ὑπ᾽ ἐμοῦ ἐν τῇ αὐτῇ κώμῃ, “1 swear that I have levied no contributions whatever in the above village,”’ where the editors note that “ἐλογεία is used for irregular local contributions as opposed to regular taxes,’’ and compare BGU II. 515? (a.p. 193) (= Chrest. I. 268) where τὰ ὑπὲρ Aoylas [ἐϊπιβληθέντα are contrasted with σιτικὰ δημόσια. In this last case the reference may be to a collection for religious purposes, as fre_quently in the ostraca in connexion with a tax for the priests of Isis, cf. the Theban ostracon of date 4 Aug. A.D. 63, reproduced by Deissmann (ZAZ p. 104 f.), which, after an opening greeting, runs as follows—éaméxw παρὰ σοῦ (Spaxμὰς) 5 ὀβο(λὸν) τὴν Aoylay Ἴσιδος περὶ τῶν δημοσίων, “ΕἼ have received from thee 4 drachmae 1 obol, being the collection of Isis on behalf of the public works” : see further Wilcken Osér. i. p. 253 ff., Otto Priester i. p. 359 ff., and from the inserr. the i/a.p. marble tablet from Smyrna, SyZ/ | 5835 κλεῖν κεχρυσωμένην καὶ ἐμπεφιασμένην πρὸς τὴν λογήαν καὶ πομπὴν τῶν θεῶν, where as Deissmann points out (LAZ p. 105 n.1°), ‘‘ the reference seems to be to a procession on the occasion of which money contributions were expected from the spectators.” Other exx. of the word with varying references are P Lond 37 (B.c. 146 or 135) (=I. p. 46) τῆς τιμ[ῆς το]ῦ ἡμίσους τοῦ [rpl]rov Noyelas τῶν κειμένων νεκρῶν, P Giss I. 617 (A.D. 119) μηνύοντ[ες] α[ὐ]τὸν λογίαν πε[π]οιηκέναι ἐπὶ τῆς κώμης Ναβόωι, BGU III. 891 verso (A.D. 144) τοὺς 8 πρεσβυτ(έρους) [τ]ῆς αὐτῆς κώ(μης) ἐνκαλου(μένους) ὑπὸ Χαιρή[μ]ονο[ς] . . περὶ ἧς φησιν πεπο[ι]ῆσθαι λογίας, and P Lond 3425 (a.p. 185) (=II. p. 174) where complaint is made against a village πρεσβύτερος. παρ᾽ ἕκαστα λογείας ποιεῖται. In view of the above, it is clear that the statement in Grimm-Thayer “* Not found in prof. auth.” requires modification, and it is instructive to notice that words like this and the adj. Sox¢ptos, “genuine,” have disappeared so completely from our literary sources, when the vernacular used them with such freedom. Aoyela should probably be read in 2 Macc 1243 ποιησάμενός Te Kat ἄνδρα Noyelav. On the forms of Aoyela see Moulton G*. ii. p. $2.
