Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

μαθήτρια. This feminine form of μαθητής, which in the NT is found only in Ac 9°, is applied to Mary Magdalene in Ev. Petr. 11, where Swete ad 4. notes that ‘‘in Coptic Gnostic literature (Prstzs Sophia, Second Book of Jet), the μαθήτριαι correspond tothe μαθηταί = ἀπόστολοι, and are headed by Mary Magdalene (Schmidt, Guostische Schriften, p. 452).” Mal@aioc. On the double aspirate in this proper name see Moulton Gr, ii. p. 102, and cf. P Flor III. 297% (vi/a.p.), where the editor restores δ(ιὰ) Μαθ[θαίο]υ.
