Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
μαστίζω. For this NT Gr. εἰρ. (Ac 2255: cf. Ev. Petr. 3) see P Lille I. 29% 15 (fragment of a code—iii/B.c.) μηδὲ στίζειν, μηδ[ὲ] polor]i[te]u[v, ‘neither to brand nor to flog them” ; but the reading is very doubtful, see Chrest. 11. p. 212. The verb is used figuratively in Aazbel 303° μαστίξωσι λόγοις.
